ACC teams are about to be 2-0 in bowls with a couple of dominant performances. BC/Iowa kick off in about a half hour on ESPN.
 
I didn't think FSU would show up but they have surprisingly played hard.

Had the same thoughts especially early in the game. Haven't really watched that closely since they've been pulling away, but it was UGLY to start with. I have FSU in a bowl pickem with mucho confidence points, but it goes against my normal train of thought for these bowl games (lost their coach, not an exciting destination, "smaller" school that will likely be amped up, etc.). Needless to say, I was a little concerned with my pick early in the game.
 
Coach Hankins(?) gave a pretty interesting interview at the end of that one. Cool guy.
 
Hopefully, Clemson runs roughshod through the playoffs with two epic blowout wins

quite a performance by Navy. I am surprised that their coach hasn't left for bigger fish yet

Not until Fuente leaves. Don't want to sacrifice those easy ACC Ws for us. Maybe I was watching the wrong games, but everytime I saw VT this year they looked terrible. How did they get to 9 wins? They don't have a single guy on offense that scares me. Which I guess makes sense given their offensive production against us under Fuente.
 
ESPN is revving up their inevitable dream scenario of Alabama vs. Georgia. Here's to hoping the conference finishes strong. Gimme Wake, NC State, and Clemson.
