Penn State’s tumultuous 2025 football season came to a close Saturday afternoon in Yankee Stadium.

Look, let’s face it: while Duke made the Final Four last spring, the ACC regular season, and most of the tournament too, sucked. The conference was just basically helpless. Almost everyone sucked. Only Clemson was a real, consistent threat. It’s going to be very different this year. UNC is back on track, Louisville is looking […]

They still will be in the record books and for some coaches and programs, they are more important than others. Which three ACC football coaches need a bowl win the most? This is … Continue reading »
In the low tide between the regular season/championship games and bowl season, I wanted to take a look at what it took to beat Clemson this year. Was it just luck? A specific unit falling apart? Joe Burrow and that 2019 WR corps? A Travis Henry RB that ran it 40 times per game? “Not […]
While No One Thing is to Blame, There are Clear Signs as to why 2025 Fell Short. Now that the smoke has cleared from the 2025 season and Clemson knows its bowl destination, we have some time to look at why 2025 fell so far short of the lofty expectations this team collected prior to […]
BYU has its final big test of the non-conference season they travel to New York City to play Clemson at Madison Square Garden in the Jimmy V Classic.

The 2024 ACC / SEC Challenge was a sad affair. The SEC won 14 of 16, Only Duke and Clemson won from the ACC. And coincidentally, 14 is the same number of SEC teams that made the NCAA tournament. The ACC made a strong statement on day 1. Let’s do that again! ACC / SEC […]
By early October, all of Clemson’s playoff hopes were gone. Then the ACC Title game chances evaporated. They fell to 3-5 at one point, and it appeared Clemson would have massive difficulty just reaching a bowl game.

So here we are, since the moment FSU was snubbed for the CFP at 13-0, they’ve gone 7-17 (3-13), with no bowls, and a 0-6 record against rivals Florida, Miami, and Clemson.

Fell down a bit of a rabbit hole when I noticed that an NC State win tonight would bring the Pack’s record against FSU in Carter-Finley to 11-11. The only ACC schools with winning home records against the Noles are Clemson and Georgia Tech, s0 .500 would be some pretty good work! (FSU is 8-1 […]
Clemson beat a ranked team in the regular season! Virginia dominated Duke and Georgia Tech barely edged Boston College. Teams that are bad 17.
