I swear, the penalities and fouls have KILLED us this year. And without Philip Rivers, our team hasn't been performing anyway. He WAS our team for four years.

ECU is actually a pretty decent team IMO.

NCSU has a football team and people care about it?

This probably has something to do with the fact that NCSU had the same # of wins that I did over the last seven weeks.

wow, that's three head coaches fired in the ACC this season. I just read that Alabama's head coach was fired as well.

Alot of house cleaning going on in the NCAA.

Well, there were 0 hirings/firings in the ACC last season, so it's not entirely unexpected that there is more activity this year. It looks like Roof isn't going anywhere (despite winning about 5 games in the last 4 years), but Grobe might get poached by a bigger job after the bowl season.

One coaching search down, a gazillion more to go.

I hope Miami is done soon. The rumor of our coach taking and sailing his pirate ship to Miami needs to go away so it doesnt hurt recruiting.
