Couldn't stay away folks.

So here's a hypothetical for you.

I'm going to set you up against your main division rival. You're gonna play the game at home and your crowd is going to be going insane.

Also, I'm giving you a 1st round lock at RB (and potential Heisman candidate) and I'm also giving you a stable of quick-quicker-and quickest backs to spell him. I'm giving you a QB who's wonderfully mobile and can take a lot of hits. I'm giving you an offensive line who is excellent at run blocking and a group of big WR's who block downfield very well. And you've got an above average special teams unit.

Also I'm spotting you 21 points in the first quarter of the game and you are running an offense that's terribly difficult to prepare for in one week - but you get to play the game on a short week (only 4 days prep).

Your opponent has a freshman QB and a slightly banged up RB and is well know for quitting when the going gets tough.

HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU EVER GIVE UP THE LEAD IN THAT GAME????

BigWoof...I expected better from you...

Like this game was so much worse than UGA's choke job against Georgia Tech last year. If I recall y'all were up 16 at the half, with a couple of guaranteed first round draft picks yourself. I'm holding back a lot on this too. Just didn't appreciate your comment sir. See you in November.

Get thee to the Varsity and leave the Mutt alone, Gnat. :p

Reggie was classic

remember when he threw the ball away on 4th down against Georgia late in the 4th quarter? (2004 I think)

Mike Tomczak did that against Purdue in '84...

great tonight though... it may not be the best product out there, but ACC football is definitely entertaining.

Because you didn't also give me a quarterback that can complete a friggin' pass?

What was that stat they showed.....1 for 11 at one point? Yeowch. The guy was 3 for 14 with two picks and one overturned pick. Clemson had the same chance of catching his passes as his own receivers. That was awful. I wanted to slap Paul Johnson every time he called a pass. Why would you do that?

Also, nitpick: Clemson isn't in GT's division - but they are the permanent cross-divisional matchup.

You are 100% right. I had about 4 too many Bell's Oberon last night and I ran my mouth on BP.

There's no sense to which teams are 'Atlantic' and which are 'Coastal'. I have no problem naming which teams are in which division in the Big 12 or the SEC; but in the ACC, I usually have no frickin' idea. :biggrin:

They sorta sat down and distributed them more or less evenly based on how good the teams were at the time, with an eye on rivalries and half an eye on evening out travel costs, and ensuring the possibility of a Miami-FSU ACCCG. The obvious problem with that is that teams get better and worse, and right now the Coastal is just loaded and the Atlantic is really weak.
