That one, and a sorta, kinda elimination game between Clemson and Miami highlight the ACC Football weekend slate.
I had Scott German, the keeper of our weekly ACC Football Power Rankings, on for a podcast today to preview Saturday’s action.
Quick hits
- FSU-Duke: Duke’s lone loss was a last-minute setback at home to a good Notre Dame team. Don’t be surprised if the Blue Devils pull the upset.
- Clemson-Miami: Two programs with two losses already in conference play. Two coaches (Dabo Swinney, Mario Cristobal) whose trajectories are trending downward. Must-win for both, and the fan base of the one that loses will want a pound of flesh from somebody afterward.
- UVA-UNC: North Carolina is going to want to not only win, but put a nice score out there for the voters and computers.
Also on the show
- Scott comes hard with the observation that the success at Duke under Mike Elko and UNC under Mack Brown is a sign that Virginia can have success with the right coach.
- The guys debate what happens at Virginia with Tony Elliott if the ‘Hoos lose out against the tough second-half schedule to finish 1-11.
- Is there an upset or two in those final six? Chris breaks down the possibilities with the Techs, Louisville.
