Thoughts on the ACC in Week 2

[RedtheGOB]

Lot of week 2 ACC hangovers not just in CNY.

-Clemson, Louisville and obvi Cuse were losing at the half to non-P4 teams and did not score a TD in the first half. All pulled it out. Some earlier than others...

-UNC still looking suspect. 20-3 against Charlotte. Charlotte had 21 first downs UNC had 15. 150 yards passing. Charlotte missed a 25 yard field goal, threw a pick inside the UNC 10. Thinking this may not be the big game people think it is come halloween time.

-Duke got ran off the field. Outscored 31-6 in the 2nd half granted they were the only ACC team playing a ranked P2 opponent this week.

-BC need to watch but seems like they lost a heartbreaker in double OT on the road to MSU.

-SMU need to watch Double OT loss also Baylor.

-Miami, FSU, GT, Pitt, Wake and Cal beat up their respective cupcakes at home so didn't learn much. VT got beat up by Vandy.

Teams left on our schedule, I think UNC and Duke are trending down from where alot of people thought they may be.. Miami, Clemson, SMU, ND, GT, Pitt still looking solid but too early to tell. BC may be better than people thought.

Duke outgained Ill. But 4 turnovers will beat most teams

VT gave up

UNC is avg. lets hope they stay there

Lou did nothing all game but in space they can run

Clem Oline has been bad. Guys got benched and moved. If not for the bad INTS Troy wins that game

Yeah I was watching this game as I bet Illinois but I thought Duke was extremely unlucky all game. Score wasn't reflective imo.

We don’t usually beat Pitt and BC, so those games are both going to be tough. We are going to have to upset 1 or 2 teams on the road.

SU leads the series vs BC 33 - 24.

We must beat Duke at home Week 5. That is a key game of the early part of the schedule.

We usually do beat BC. Just once in a while when we need them as a win, then they knock us off.

Watched the BC - MSU game, and BC's offense and QB are legit. The Defense could not stop MSU though, which cost them the game. Cuse should be able to run and pass against them.
