Georgia Tech (1-0)
Florida State (2-0)
NC State (2-0)
Duke (1-0)

Virginia (0-2)
Wake Forest (0-1)
Clemson (0-1)
Maryland (0-1)
North Carolina (0-1)

The ACC has successfully eliminated what respect it had from a stellar season last year.

The only respectable loss up there is Clemson's, one lost by about a foot too little leg in a final field goal.

Two losses to MAC teams (NIU, Miami)

9 Turnovers in one game for UNC

A swiss cheese defense for Virginia

Horrible special teams for Wake Forest

A 22-0 blanking of the fridge by Notre Shame

Folks, it's a sad day when Duke has a win and half the ACC doesn't.

I'm embarrised to be a fan of an ACC school.

Can't we bring in UCF... Marshall... or Louisville... or somebody?

I really thought Clemson was gonna win this game.

eh...

Note:UNC,UMD,WF,UVA, all BAD teams

Maryland was a one hit wonder...they'll be lucky to go 6-6

That's the sound of the Maryland tempers about to blow through the roof.

This should start an interesting flame war.

Yeah things haven't gone exactly the way I expected, but on the flip side you can't expect the entire ACC to dominate. Even the SEC has a few bad teams. From what i've seen from last year and so far this year

1) FSU will be back as a BCS bowl team.
2) GT has a good team, will continue it's tradition of good football teams, and will give some added respectablity to the ACC
3) NCState has a lot of potential and will also give the ACC some respectability
4) Clemson see #2. If Georgia is really a top 10 or even 15 team, which i have my doubts, Clemson is going to be a very dangerous team. Clemson lost last night to Georgia in Georgia but IMO we played the better overall game.

ClemTiger, I coulnt agree with you more...

Tech and Clemson are very much alike...

The tech/clem game should be quite interesting

It always is!

The same time that the UMD offense will score its first touchdown.

Geez, folks -- if one game made a whole season, then it's time for the ACC to start worrying about how good we are.

As it is, though, you will see that we aren't as bad as we've looked thus far.

Virginia isn't the only team that's been beaten by CSU. Oh, that other team happened to be ranked in the top ten and from the "power" Big 12 Conference, by the way....
