Man, did you see the hit that Chad Johnson took last Sunday? That was incredible. As a poster on the Sports Frog wrote, the guy knocked the color out of his hair. The Mighty MJD, while writing for AOL, has a nice post up that shows a video of the hit along with another showing…
… or should I have spelled that “futbol?” While the conference may be sucking out loud on the gridiron, they are kicking ass on the pitch. The ACC has the top ranked soccer team in the country (Virginia), four of the top five and five of the top seven. Further, the ACC has six in…
I had a great idea last night – I’d write an article ranking the 12 ACC coaches by how much heat they are under. Then, I check the Internets this morning and wouldn’t you know it, StateFansNation beat me to the punch. Ah well, I’m doing it anyway.
Has this been a fantastic football season for the ACC or what? I thought things were going well already, but nothing prepared me for the stunning brilliance of week 3. The ACC picked up two huge, close wins over Furman and BYU, nearly knocked off MAC power Western Michigan and looked impressive against national titans…
Has it been a week already? Man, this one flew by. Since I never did a rehash of last week’s games, I’ll try to combine that with a look ahead to this weekend’s games. Let’s see if I can pull it off… First things first – last weekend did nothing to dispel the notion that…
A few thoughts about last weekend’s abysmal start to the ACC football season … Virginia Tech and Clemson both pretty much did what they needed to do. Good teams win games like those easily and both did. You can’t learn too many positives from cupcake games, but you can learn negatives. No obvious negatives were…
Perhaps you’ve been following the drama surrounding UNC’s quarterback for the upcoming season. Actually, probably not. The situation is that, UNC has only two guys who are viable candidates, Joe Dailey, who transferred from Nebraska and Cam Sexton, a redshirt freshman. Now, normally when a school like Carolina has a transfer from a school like…
Holy crap! That right there is one big ol’ television set! The University of Texas decided to celebrate their 2005 National Championship by buying the largest Hi-Def screen in the world and sticking that thing above their stadium. I wonder how many times the players will miss what’s going on in the huddle to watch…
In case you hadn’t noticed, the ACC football season starts up this weekend. Actually, strike that. The season starts on Thursday night when Boston College takes on the mighty Chippewas of Central Michigan. That’s in just two days! I never got around to putting together a proper ACC football preview, and honestly did you really…
You may remember a few months back when NC State’s coaching search got all hot and heavy with Memphis coach John Calipari. I pointed out that the many Wolfpack fans who were so excited about his impending hire – and it did seem like a sure thing – should be careful what they were wishing…
