It’s a huge weekend for the ACC, because all eyes are going to be on the Louisville-Clemson game in prime time. After Louisville handled Florida State, this game became the ACC Matchup of the Century of the Year***, and it features two of the most talented quarterbacks in the country. Now if it can just live up to the hype.
(***still subject to change)
There’s also some intrigue in the noon slate, with Miami playing at Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets really need to avoid a second conference loss this early, and I’m still not entirely sure what to make of Miami. Reeling Notre Dame is in Syracuse, and if the Irish don’t play well, Brian Kelly may be joining Les Miles on a couch somewhere.
The 3:30 slot is loaded, highlighted by Wisconsin-Michigan and UNC-FSU. If the Noles lose that game they’re basically eliminated from Atlantic Division title contention ... and it’s the first day of October. Would not have seen that one coming.
