Which three teams do you think wll be the prime contenders for the ACC conference title in football?
Good idea for a poll TigerFreak!!! <img border="0" alt="[Cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/cheers.gif" />
NC State hasn't really bee tested yet. I know they've been putting up great numbers, but who have they played? I still say that they'll finish 2nd or 3rd in the coference depending on the outcome of thier 8th game.

We need to learn to play all 4 quarters or a disaster will be waiting to ambush us... <img border="0" alt="[Bang Head]" title="" src="graemlins/banghead.gif" />
MsNole, the problem with that is we score 30+ points in the first half while holding the opposition to hardly any points, then when we come out for the second half we start to relax and let the other team back in the game, and with games with Miami, NC State, and Florida still on the schedule we better play all 4 quarters. Notice I didnt put Notre Dame in there with those other teams....That little leprechaun will get his Lucky Charms ass handed to him in Tallahassee!!
Okay, geez... if UVa, Wake and dook get a vote, I'm giving us one.

-JD
Whoever voted for Dook should be banned from this board.

My votes went to: Tech, FSU, and NC State

for 2nd in the league, this year. But, with the
exception of Navy that haven't been "blowing
away" the cupcakes the way a contender would.

Who knows, mayve a three way tie for 2nd...Clemson, Tech and NC St.

We'll see when they play at Texas Tech this week.

They win that one, by a decent margin...they're
for real. They are currently a 2 1/2 point
underdog, so the oddsmakers see this as I do.

"But, that's why they play the games...huh?"
The results so far:

to pay 100 bucks to make the picks...the winner
takes all...

Then see how many votes Duke gets
There are 37 votes with 3 votes per person (somebody didn't vote for 3 teams). That's 13 or so people that have voted and 7 of those people voted for FSU.

So basically only a little more than 50% of the people who voted think that FSU will contend for the ACC championship!

Plus the Duke thing, pure craziness. One win and you're in three years and all the sudden you're in the running for the ACC championship.
HAHAA!!
GO DUKE!
Louisville.

We are 2-0 in the conference so far this year.

UK only lost to Florida by 7, i think they have turned to a new leaf, and a bowl bid awaits them.

Wolfpack gonna kick some 'hole ass! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="cool.gif" />

I picked the Pack, FSU and Clemson.

Bama and Kentucky beating down SEC teams means that the SEC could lose two bowl births and a helluva lot of money.
Great news then!
