I'm all Tarheel blue, having their first decent season in quite some time. Might be entering back into what they used to be. One could argue UNC to be the best all-around sports schools.:2

I found this on ESPN: Yeah, it should be close, considering Miami and Virginia Tech are the ACC's winningest teams in Thursday night football. Miami is 12-1, and Virginia Tech is 15-3, but they've never met on Thursday night.

Should be a close game. Go Canes!!

Two of those losses were to BC, so they don't count :). For some reason BC is like kyrptonite to VT, we always have a tough time with them.

Crap, I didn't realize Miami owned Thursday nights also. I hate close games, makes me nervous, I'd be much happier to see Tech run all over 'em like we did MD :D

And this more or less decides the division champ too, our last two games are Duke and UVA so if we beat Miami, done deal I hope.

If VA Tech wins out they win the Coastal Division. If Miami beats Tech and UNC wins out, the Tar Heels win the Coastal. For Miami to win the Coastal, they need to win out and have UNC lose a game.

In the Atlantic Division, both Maryland and BC control their own destiny. If either one wins out, they win the Atlantic (Maryland and BC play each other in the last game of the season).

That game's not looking good either at this point. But, if history is any indication, the Tigers should be ok in that one.:D

they need to change that to dontfiremikegroh.com

he's the problem. you can't get good recruits when you have a no name offensive coordinator. look at the defense. Al Groh is a defensive minded coach and has a good DC, thus UVA gets good D recruits.

:tpd: Then again, I might be slightly biased :rolleyes:

Very glad that the 'heels gave me something to use to poke fun at my brother in-law (Georgia Tech fan).

This team should be very good next year.

Is it 'cause the best defense recruits from VA go to Bud Foster? ;) :D

Can't wait for tomorrow. Good thing I've got Friday off, I'm gonna need :al to either celebrate or ease the pain.

The UNC MD game will be a good one to watch too. Especially since MD only wins against ranked teams, and they're probably pretty upset about finishing last Thursday's game with -12 rushing yards.

Any Tech fans want to wager a fiver on the Thursday night game?
