Elko and Leopold are the 2 that have done the best job based on where they were starting from imo. Johnathan Smith at Oregon State is another that has done a really good job.

I think the end of that Yahoo sports article is the most telling. Whatever new shape college sports takes, White hopes that higher education and major college athletics — a link that is under as much tension as ever — continues to persist. He’s not sure it will. “We have a 107-year history...

Right now we are at a low point due to the last 5 years. That said, the upper limit is probably around 45K. In person attendance has been dropping in college football for 15 years and is likely to continue. Also, keep in kind that these attendance figures are tickets sold, not butts in seat...

Article on who the 12 in the CFP this year would be based on likely requirements for next year. The writer goes in depth about how expanding the playoff is not likely to add much more interest as who is going to be in a 12 team CFP as it has been largely the same for the last 3 weeks (The top 10...

I look at the ACC Site a fair bit. Note if you hit the button on the top left [Conference Only] you can toggle between overall and conference only stats. I tend to look only at conference only stats. Those are more instructive. GT looks better than Syracuse if you only look at Conference stats.

ACC did look into Oregon and Washington after the USC/UCLA announcement. This was well covered at the time. It was not financially additive, so it was not pursued. This was a year before the PAC12 fell part and before everyone realized schools would move for less than full shares. Fans need to...

If it comes down to FG's than I believe GT has an edge there. Birr is 10-11 (5-5 inside 40, 5-6 over 40). Weitz is 7-11 (6-7 inside 40, 1-4 over 40).

TO's above all else is what I will be watching. Part of the reason Clemson has struggled scoring is that their offense has turned it over a fair bit. On the season they have 17 TO and their opponents have 15. They are really good at shooting themselves in the foot. I'll also be watching the...

King makes the CBSSports QB rankings this week. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/college-football-qb-power-rankings-bo-nix-vaults-to-no-1-as-oregon-star-puts-road-narrative-to-bed/ 10 Haynes KingGEORGIA TECH YELLOW JACKETS QB King has been a rollercoaster all season. Odds...

A few thoughts. GT didn't ask for any protected rivals so it didn't receive any. That also meant that it was likely to have the most games against other conference teams with fewer protected rivals. ACC is not going to pay any attention to who teams play on their OOC schedule when they set up...

I don't think we are a far better team, we are a little better - they have been more dangerous since their starting QB came back. In the FEI ratings GT is currently #67 and UVA is #70. Frankly, they played significantly better against Miami than we did, but they came out with a tough OT loss...

I feel good about him, like I have all season. He is not perfect, I don't expect him to be, but he is very good and the best QB we've had in a decade. The sideline reporter even mentioned early in the game that he had some sort of injury and was in alot of pain. He certainly didn't play like he...

ACC QB And OL Players of the Week.

In FBS games King is our leading rusher (and was our leading rusher in 3 of 7 of those games).

Have browsed a few UNC boards this week they are certainly not assuming this is an easy win for their team. A number of them are flat out expecting to lose. Apparently too many years of losing to GT and losing multiple times once their team lost a game it was expected to win. There was some...

I agree with that. I'll add, I doubt GT would be 8-0 with Liberty's schedule. GT has already lost to BG, who Liberty beat, and GT lost to BC who is right in line with Western KY.

I really have no expectations with this team. New team, new coaches, alot of new players. I just plan on sitting back and seeing how the season goes (and cheering for them every game).

The most likely outcome is probably what we have seen in most of our losses - keep in close through the third quarter and then fade badly late. But it would not surprise me if it ends up being a close game with GT pulling it out late. Once again, TO's are going to be very important. Have to win...

That's not how to read that. DFEI says Liberty and GT's defenses are basically equivalent using strength of schedule adjustments. Liberty's unadjusted defensive statistics are much better than GT's, but due to the different in strength of schedule GT's final DFEI is higher than most of its...

I sort of feel like either UNC will blow GT out or GT will win a close game. Have no clue which it will be.
