What other ACC team are you hoping comes through this year?

My vote goes toward Miami. I've been waiting for them to pull their own weight for many, many years now. We need them to be a powerhouse again especially on the other side of the conference. They're recruiting seems to be picking up lately.

I understand why someone would only just care about their own team but that way of thinking is very shortsighted. I'd love my team to dominate the conference every year but over the long haul having one team reign supreme over all others makes for a weak conference schedule. There is a reason why Florida St went undefeated in the regular season and barely made the playoffs. The perception of ACC football is not were we'd like it to be. Florida St, Clemson, and GT, need to be the powerhouses they should be. Miami, Louisville, VT, Duke, and NCST need to challenge the top of their divisions and win all of their OOC games and bowls. Va, Wake, Pitt, UNC, Syracuse and BC need to be a challenge to the rest of the big dogs, and win the games they are suppose to and occasionally beat higher OOC opponents. Dead weight kills the legitimacy and it doesn't matter how good your team is if no one else thinks you deserve a place at the table.

And would't mind VT only losing one as well (To us in the ACC Championship game). FSU, GT, and Louisville will be 10 win teams most likely.

If we want to make the playoff with all the ACC bashing going on nationally preseason we need VT's great defense to lead them to an undefeated regular season. We need FSU to only lose to us so our division looks strong. We need Notre Dame to only lose to us and FSU. Sad to say but since it's the last game of regular season we actually need SCar to do well. This isn't a normal year. We have a good enough team to make the playoffs. To do so though will depend on the teams around us. ACC isn't getting ANY credit preseason so we'll need the other teams to do their part if we want to make the final 4. I like beating good teams so I pull for everyone we play to do well. SCar can go 11-0 (lol like they have a prayer) and it doesn't mean a thing if we beat them down the last game of the year. Unless they win 4 or less I'd rather beat them when they're good. Means nothing to beat a 6 win SCar team.
I know this is a long post but after how we handled the SEC the last week of the season and they flopped worse than Spurrier's bottom lip in a presser during bowl season it is ticking me off they're getting so much hype and we're getting none. Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, etc either have a new qb or don't even know who the heck the qb is going to be yet they're getting hyped to no end while we have the best qb in the nation, the best wr group in the nation, solid backs, and arguably the best DC in the nation and we're being ranked late teens or early twenties. LSU hired Kevin freaking Steele the worst DC we've ever had and guys have them top ten. We'd destroy them.

I do find myself pulling for David Cutcliffe. Their being perennial underdogs makes it not so bad for me win they have a margin of success.

Duke has some good and loud fans and they are passionate but there is only 19,500 of them. They are different than Unc in that they aren't scared they won't hear somebody pass gas. Wake fans think they are passionate lol, NCS think they are better than anyone in football even after that 41-0 their fans were obnoxious rather than saying they layed an egg, they made excuses. They all hate Clemson and their are so many NC Clemson fans. We have whipped that tail so many times..lol
We are basketball fans I don't really care about football unless they beat us. The last two Clemson games in Winston you here them talking about the game the Clemson coach got fired over. They are so proud that TB got the axe. They should know that's an insult but they don't. Of course I can sit on the front row at the 50 on the visitor side and the wake fans go home at halftime. It's awesome to hang out with the Clemson team just 15 minutes from Clemmons, NC. We always have more fans than they do at their own home game. Wake is the opposite of Clemson when it come to fans. They go to basketball games but they are so quiet, it's sad.
I only pull for the Tigers and hope they all lose unless it benifits Clemson. I hope the coots lose every game every year. I'd much rather have a game everyyear against the Dawgs. I don't really need the coots..lol
I could care less how others do it. To each his own to quote atilla the hen.
