One-Man Teams, ACC Dept.
There were two players in the Atlantic Coast Conference who had Saturday performances that fall into the hard-to-believe category.

Demaryius Thomas was the entire receiving offense for Georgia Tech against Duke.
Hard to believe one guy could do all that. And hard to believe the other team didn't do more to prevent them from doing all that. First, Georgia Tech wide receiver Demaryius Thomas (24). The ground-loving Yellow Jackets completed nine passes in a 27-0 pasting of Duke Saturday -- all of them to Thomas, for 230 yards' worth of receptions. Yo, Dookies, you guys are supposed to be smart, right? Could The Dash suggest double coverage? Triple coverage? The entire secondary on Thomas, maybe?
The Air Demaryius offense apparently remained a shock to Duke all day, since his last three catches went for 25, 88 and 33 yards. Credit Georgia Tech with at least being smart about when it threw to Thomas: After his first four receptions converted third downs into first downs, he caught passes only on first and second down thereafter.
