2008 ACC Football Preview When Miami, Virginia Tech and Boston College hooked up with the Atlantic Coast Conference in 2004, it was supposed to make for the greatest conference in football while crushing the Big East. Since that merger, the Big East has flourished while the ACC is 0-for in Bowl Championship Series games (Florida State '05 Orange Bowl, Wake Forest '06 Orange Bowl, Virginia Tech '07 Orange Bowl) and has produced the worst BCS team in terms of record since the system's inception (8-5 FSU, 2005). Is this the year things turn around? WEB RUN
Worst Fans In The ACC“Which ACC fan base is the worst?” Former NC State punter Austin Herbert posed that question to AG yesterday. Here’s mine, again based on stereotypes associated with each school:
5.) NC State, 4.) Duke 3.) Clemson 2.) Miami 1.) Maryland - Crude, disgusting, and at times dangerous. Ask Carlos Boozer’s mom. WEBRUN
ACC football coaches: Whose seat is hot?Now is as good a time as any to take a look at the conference coaches and just how hot their seats are in 2008. I should let you know that I don’t think any of the 12 are truly on the hot seat. Some are on warmer seats that others, but, short of some scandal, I don’t think we’ll see much change after this coming season. But I am predicting one coaching change after 2008. Keep reading to see which coach I think is gone.

RAWFS Complimented By "The Gray Lady"Congratulations to the Red and White from State blog for their mention in the New York Times.
Judge agrees that Duke is GodawfulA Circuit Court judge in Kentucky
has sided with Duke in a breach of contract lawsuit brought forth by Louisville. The Blue Devils backed out of a four-game series against the Cardinals with three dates remaining. The contract called for a penalty of $150,000 a game if a date with a "team of similar stature" could not be arranged. - WEBRUN
