Don't let it escape us, any of us, that as of today's college football polls (and we will see on Tuesday if it holds true in the CFP rankings), there are three, count 'em, three, ACC teams in the top 10 of each poll. There is only one SEC team in the top 10. Can our conference finally get the respect it deserves. Clemson, Florida State and North Carolina I would put on the field against any of the SEC powers and feel we have a reasonable chance for victory.
The wrap against FSU and, particularly, Clemson over the years (even back in 1981) has been that we play in a weak conference. I am so tired of that. Just look at the rankings and deal with it SEC and ESPN. Clemson #1, North Carolina #8, and FSU #9 in one poll and #10 in the other. This will get no press on ESPN today. If there were 3 SEC teams in the top 10 this late in the year, they would be saying how great the SEC is. But today, you will hear nothing, I guarantee you, about the ACC owning the top 10!
Who would count nd. They aren't in the ACC. uncheat gets ripped for schedule weakness. bammer plays the toughest over-hyped over-ranked schedule in the country. That means that 1 sec team in the top ten trumps 3 ACC teams in the top ten.
