How did she get that nickname?

I have also gotten the impressions in the rankings that she and Ivan Meisel dislike Clemson.

Because based on her (lack of) journalistic talent, she should be occupied in the kitchen making sammiches.

My guess is she will be packing up her office soon.

Very good points, all

The ACC Atlantic really turned out to be a good division this year, with three top 20 teams and one top ten team. BC and NC State won 7 games each.

LSU and Ole Miss are wildly overrated

It was just a matter of time until Mississippi State ran into another team like Alabama with a good defense and above average offense. They're just so poor defensively that if anybody slows them down for much of a game, they're going to lose. I mean, UAB actually outgained MSU, and they're cancelling their program after this year.

Buffalo,
You can't put that ranking in their and put the entire Big 12 conference on the list while putting divisions on everyone else.

There are only 10 teams in the Big 12- no divisions, no championship game. That's why a bunch of them are still playing this weekend. They all have to play each other.

Good article, but its not like some message was sent..

Outside of our game, the other 3 were all just a one play difference in the outcome.
What if Mark Richt used his brain and ran the clock down to 3 sec and then rant the 4th down play and not have left enough time on the clock? UGA wins.
What if UF hits those other two fgs they missed. UF may have won.
What if Kentucky had caught that late interception they dropped or the refs had gotten the call on the punt (ball hit UL player and UK returned for a TD - called back) right. UK wins.
Yes, you can play that game both ways but fact is all 3 of those match ups were very close and went the ACCs way this year.

What if...
We started Watson or kept him in the UGA and FSU game?
What if Special teams doesn't lay and egg in the UGA game and FSU game?
What if Watson doesn't get hurt in the GT game?
Heck we could have been undefeated "IF" certain things were a little different because we were talented enough to win every game we played

Yes, three of those games were close on the scoreboard

But the ACC teams actually dominated the stat sheets in all of them. If not for turnovers, all of the ACC teams would've won by at least two scores, and Clemson probably would've won by more.
But there are always infinite what ifs, and there are always what ifs to rebut other what ifs (eg. "what if South Carolina doesn't miss any FGs and scores from the one?"). That's why all you can do is look at the scoreboards and the stat sheets, and look at the overall tenor of the games that were played. I would say GT's win was something like miraculous, while Clemson, UofL, and FSU clearly looked like superior teams.

I didn't see the GT game - but UGA was given a 14 point

swing on that turnover GT had on UGAs 1-yard-line. "What if" you take away that play? - GT wins by 10 in regulation.

Don't understand how forward progress wasn't called
Dec 1, 2014, 1:39 PM
|

UGA CB took the ball from the QB at the 3 yard line...they reviewed it to see if the QB had scored...forward progress was definitely stopped since he was driven back 3 yards before the ball was taken.

They would've won with just a 10 point swing!
Dec 1, 2014, 11:09 AM

Then they'd only need a 12 game swing instead of a 13 game swing to be ahead in the series. See, the rivalry is super close!

I think on a neutral field at this point, we'd beat UGA too. I know that's what you were really going for.

How many times did they mention ACC-4 SEC-0 during the

Auburn-Alabama game?
I counted zero. I suspect it would have been a talking point had it been the other way around.
