Some good ones this year

Clemson-UGA

FSU-UF
GT-UGA
Miami-UF
VPI-Alabama
UNC-USCe

Does ACC have ability to split 4-4?

High chance of Clemson winning in both of their games.
Fair chance FSU beats UF
Decent chance Miami beats UF
Very low chance UNC beats S. Carolina
No chance in **** VT, GT, and Wake win.


So, no. ACC may win 2.
 
The ACC might win one of those games. Might.

Maybe us, maybe FSU over the Gatas. The others are SEC locks. The only other game with a chance is Clemson-USC, but Spurrier will beat Dabo 99 out of a 100

The ACC will lose face if it's champion is 0-2 versus the SEC, or has a bad loss to a non champion SEC team.

We know VT, UNC, Wake and GT would be last (or second to last) in the SEC, the verdict is still out on the Canes (UNC, UVA etc., who beat us more often than not, wouldn't win a game in the SEC), Clemson is IMO a phony against all but ACC competition, and FSU will have a QB much worse than EJ.

Bet on one win in those games, or play it safe and bet for an SEC sweep.

There is a good chance the ACC goes 4-4 Clemson should win their 2 games, Miami should beat UF, UNC is getting underrated against USCe in the beginning of the year. FSU is better than UF and they are playing later in the year and their freshman QB should be good to go by the end of the year. JMO and will be completely wrong most likely.

I don't think Clemson "should" win either of their games. They can win both, but neither are locks and Clemson may only be a slight favorite against USCe and an underdog against UGA.

FSU and Miami will both probably be dogs against Florida.

I think UNC will be a dog as will Wake against Vandy. I honestly only see the ACC being favored in one of those games and that's Clemson-USCe.

the ability to split, yes it is possible.

but if the o/u is 2 im taking the under with money on the line
 
I like the early games. Saw usce v vandy last year and they suck balls at beginning of seasons. I don't see Tar Heels winning but wouldn't be shocked. I think we beat Florida. Clemson beats usce this year. I'd pick em over uga too. I need to see circumstances of vpi game. If night in Blacksburg? ...

Gators over FSU. FSU breaking in a new QB playing in the Swamp where UF's QB will have basically 2 years experience.
 
Clemson-UGA: Tossup. Georgia may have lost a lot of talent on defense but I'd take their offense over Clemson's D.
Clemson-USCe- USCe
FSU-UF: Can both lose? Slight edge to FSU
GT-UGA: UGA
Miami-UF: Miami
VT-Alabama: BAMA
UNC-USCe: USCe.
Wake-Vandy: Vandy

I'm calling it now...UNC beats USCe the first weekend.

I want to pick Clemson to beat UGA, but I'm not sure what kind of running game Clemson will have now that Ellington is gone.

Worst case....3-5
Best case...5-3

Clemson's biggest concern is losing some really good O linemen (so, you're absolutely right about the running game), but their defense should be much better this year.
Fedora has been known for upsets while at Southern Miss.
FSU won't be "breaking in" a QB at the end of their season.
VPI gets Bama in Blacksburg at 5:30 first game of season . . . . upset alert??? (Didn't Logan Thomas stay? and what about McCarron?)
 
Why would UNC beat anybody? No QB, they lost their entire offense in Gino. We had to play the worst game of the year to lose to those jive turkeys last year.
