Did Virginia Tech really lose at home last night to a UNC team that was ranked 114th in the country in total offense? I think it did. Wow.
  • North Carolina, though, got redemption, and so did quarterback T.J. Yates.
  • It could be the kind of win that gives the Tar Heels the jump-start they need to reach the postseason.

That game will resonante for a while. But we must move on for the sake of the links ...
  • Here's a new concept -- receivers who block. And you thought Georgia Tech's guys were out there playing cards.
  • Despite the Terps' struggles and two wins, coach Ralph Friedgen doesn't sound too convincing when talking about getting the younger players some experience.
  • BC's kicker, former walk-on Steve Aponavicius, is three points away from becoming the Eagles' all-time leading scorer.
  • If you haven't already, start paying attention to Clemson's DeAndre McDaniel. What appears to be amazing instincts is also the result of a lot of study time.
  • Miami quarterback Jacory Harris has been up and down performance-wise, but his emotions have stayed the same. That's good news for the Canes.
  • FSU offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher says the Noles' ground game isn't struggling.
  • Wake Forest has a knack for finding guys who can play who weren't highly recruited, but Lee Malchow? He wasn't offered a scholarship by anyone.
  • Things have changed, and when Duke and Virginia meet on Saturday, the two programs will look a lot more similar than they have in the past.
