Time is running out to become bowl eligible. But hey, if Maryland can still pull it off, anyone can ...

If there is one program an eight-team playoff would help right now, writes the AJC's Mark Bradley, it's Georgia Tech.
Boston College is well-rested -- and healthier -- after its bye week heading into the game at Virginia.
Clemson is now ranked, and the Tigers are confident. That's thanks in large part to coach Dabo Swinney's ability to get them to believe.
Miami has plenty of incentive heading into Saturday's game at North Carolina, starting with the fact the Canes have never won in Chapel Hill. Ever.
Maryland quarterback Chris Turner is questionable for Saturday's game against Virginia Tech with a knee injury he suffered at NC State.
The Terps aren't the only ones with quarterback woes. FSU now turns to E.J. Manuel at the expense of injured starter Christian Ponder.
No Shaun Draughn? No problem.
Might Virginia Tech running back Darren Evans make an appearance in the bowl game? Possible, not probable, but what a comeback he's made so far.
NC State finally had a reason to celebrate. It's been so long they almost forgot how to do it.
Virginia, on the other hand, didn't get the chance to celebrate -- again. The Cavaliers have now lost 10 of their past 13 games.
