Message: [QUOTE="Fjoinkay, post: 2754411, member: 604"] Congrats to the Cuse for bouncing back after the Pitt game!! Now SU has a great opportunity to win in Winston Salem where two seasons ago a wind storm got in the way. This season Wake's only win against a P5 school is the W against Louisville last week. Wake recently lost to Florida State 38-17. Wake's D is currently ranked #126 in yards per game and #117 in points per game. This is SU's sixth season in the ACC and finally SU has played against every ACC football team. SU plays 2 teams from the Coastal per season: Pitt and one other team. This means that SU won't see UNC again for another 6 seasons (assuming the sequence remains the same). Are SU and UNC (Virginia, Miami, Duke, Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech) really in the same football conference? SU plays each of these teams once every 6 seasons. There are kids who will spend 4 years at SU and when they graduate there will be 2 ACC teams that they never played against unless they meet in the conference championship game. The SEC runs the same scheduling system. In the SEC teams like Florida, Georgia and South Carolina play Alabama once every 6 seasons. It looks like Tennessee is paired with Alabama, so they play Bama every season. Is that fair to UT? Is Florida really in the same football conference as Alabama? Should South Carolina football fans be chanting "SEC.." when they play Bama once every 6 years, Auburn once every 6 years, LSU once every 6 years? Last night Rece Davis was downright giddy about the ACC having 4 teams in the current Top 25. Virginia at 6-2 is somewhat of a head scratcher with losses to NC State and Indiana. Virginia is the only 2 loss team in the Coastal where every other team has at least 3 losses. Did the AP and the committee stretch just a bit to have at least one team from the Coastal in the Top 25? And then of course NC State remaining ranked at 5-2 after two consecutive losses. NC State with it's game against West Virginia having been cancelled due to a horrible hurricane situation will play just 11 games total this season and will not play a game out of conference against a P5 school. I think there may be better choices to rank in the Top 25 than NC State. Anyway, good ole' Rece was so excited about the 4 ACC teams that he asked Dabo to comment on it, and Dabo wisely dodged that factoid and the question it was wrapped in. Go Cuse!! [/QUOTE]
