The ACC is TERRIBLE!!

What has happened to ACC football???? It has almost become laughable. The conference has just fallen apart honestly. There are only two teams really playing to their potential, Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech (and maybe Boston College).

Clemson is a joke. All the talent that they have on the field at any given time and they can't win a game. They lost to a Maryland team today that most considered horrible this year. Swinney is doing NOTHING to establish any credibility with the fan base; especially in a year where the ACC is wide open.

Florida St. is pitiful. If there is one team with more total talent than Clemson it is FSU, and they are even worse! After losing to a backup QB led South Florida team on their home field they go to Boston College and lose to a mediocre BC team (even though they are winning games).

For all that "great young" talent that UNC has, they are doing nothing. They beat some dogs to begin the year, they have looked horrible the past two weeks, and incredibly bad today. Losing to UVA (who lost to WILLIAM AND MARY) at home is downright pitiful, and even more so only scoring three points. Can Butch Davis coach a lick? Seriously?

NC State has had one quality win (Pitt) and a couple of close losses. Losing to Wake when Wake is in a rebuliding mode doesn't look great. Wilson is still probably the best quarterback in the ACC and will win the Wolfpack some games. They were predicted to be a seven or eight win team, and that is probably what they will be. Can't complain too much about them at this time.

Virginia has turned into a joke. This used to be the second best team in the ACC. Al Groh has lost this program, and even though they won today they are not any good at all.

Maryland is also a joke. They won today as well but are not good at all and have a ton of work to do just to get back to respectability after making back to back Orange bowls in 2002 and 2003.

Duke is Duke. While they are one of the few teams this year that is probably improving, obviously they are still a bunch of players away from being able to compete on a weekly basis.

Miami is still up in the air. I think they are better, but they are still nowhere close to being "The U" of the 1980s and 1990s. Can't complain about them too much overall though.

Georgia Tech, VT, and BC to a lesser extent are the only teams really living up to their potential on any sort of a consistent basis. Thank goodness for these teams because without them the ACC would be one of the worst two or three conferences in college football.
