If its a market thing, the only schools in the ACC that can provide a market to match most current SEC schools are North Carolina, Virginia and Cal. Clemson has very little market outside northwestern SC and western NC. FSU is overwhelmed by UF in Florida and has no market whatsoever outside...

Just saw on one of the talking boards that Bill Belichick is talking with the powers that be at North Carolina. Anything to that?

Great analysis, Jess. One of the best descriptions of the year for one of the best performances of the year. One thing for sure. If Alabama is in the playoffs, more people will be watching than will watch if Alabama is not there. I know that is true here in North Carolina where there a lot...

I wish we could go back and redo the Vanderbilt game! As usual, a great post, Jess.

I started this at 4:07 pm. The Alabama game is NOT ON TV (Direct TV) here. But the following games are (scanned through the TV Guide) Missouri-USC East UVa-Notre Dame Michigan State-Illinois Penn State- Purdue James Madison-Old Dominion Baylor-West Virginia Boston College-SMU Nebraska - USC...

You are right on, Slowpoke Catracho. 56-3!

Great expression for explaining the second half. "We were playing the clock." I hope our play callers got this message.

He will win if Georgia wins the championship.

Question about holding by the offensive line. Is it possible that the degree to which holding is called varies with the crew of referees? I have heard it said that holding could be called on every play. It would be interesting to see an academic type study analyzing the kind and frequency...

Please forgive a slight departure from the topic, but I just had to share with you a score that was just right for my situation. Although I am Alabama all the way, having taught there for ten years a long time ago, I still have an affection for my two alma maters Wake Forest and UVa...

52-7

Did I just miss it, or has anything been said about the center position?

This issue has been on the horizon for a long time. It is my understanding that the only schools in the ACC that either of the conferences would want would be Virginia and UNC. No other school has the "market" that those schools have. Lots of talk about Clemson and Florida State, but Clemson...
