Kind of weird that Schrader looks a lot like Armstrong this year and Armstrong looks a lot like DJ.

Somehow I don’t think Currie is anxious to get Tennessee on the schedule

 

[PhDeac]

You don’t think Currie and Clawson would want a shot at the Vols?

 

[Biff Tannen]

I doubt Currie or UT have much interest in scheduling a football game that would be a sideshow.

 

[PhDeac]

Why would it be a sideshow any different than any Tennessee game is a sideshow?

 

[Biff Tannen]

Why are you asking me to provide an obvious answer to your question ?

 

[PhDeac]

The obvious answer is that Currie and Clawson used to work at Tennessee, but not nearly enough people care about that for it to be a sideshow. So I'm curious why you think it would be a sideshow.

 

[BarcaDeac]

because dumb Vols fans hate both of them?

Are you serious ? They literally spent months publicly destroying Currie. And the national media would jump all over that story again. Hardly any reporter would be responsible enough to point out that Mike Leach has got things going at Miss St now and Fulmer and Pruitt were an embarrassment.

 

[PhDeac]

They literally spent months years ago. I guess I'll take your word for it. I don't follow SEC grudges like that.

 

[BarcaDeac]

it was the biggest story in CFB for a time

Again, for a time years ago.

Yeah, but I think Currie would resist it more for just that reason. He has the right to still be sour over Fulmer's power play dick moves, which in the end did not result in any improvement with the football program. But Currie at this point is probably the only guy who would resist that matchup. Pretty sure Tennessee has moved on.

 

[deacdixieboy]

It's not going to happen, but if Currie could get Georgia, Tennessee, or OU on the schedule, that would be huge.

Tennessee is a pretty short drive. I’ve been a broken record saying that Tennessee and UofSC should be OOC targets. UGA is not much further.

 

[BarcaDeac]

We should look at games against teams like SMU, Marshall, Bowling Green, Tulsa, Southern Miss, JMU, FAU, FIU, etc for our non P5 non FCS games.

This letter Clawson wrote is making the rounds:

While it’s a great show by our coach, all I can see is that he misspelled “Syracuse.”

 

[BarcaDeac]

Suck it, Best Coast: CFP Championship Game will now kickoff at 7:30 ET.

That was intentional.

 

[Wild bill]

Yeah and isn't it some weird military cult thing, too? I was always indifferent to A&M, and had no issues with their fans at the Belk Bowl but after the Gator Bowl shenanigans last year they can get fucked forever. Such a sham that they were too scared to lose to Wake last year and yet they cosplayed as a top 10 team this year.

Like VaTech it began as an all-male military-type school (think The Citadel). Tech's ROTC has its own band in addition to the university band (The Highty Tighties). A&M still takes it to the next level.

lol, fuck off Jack D. Two Wake QBs ahead of Drake

ACC mailbag: Is North Carolina’s Drake Maye the best QB in the ACC?

Why isn't there more recognition for Wake Forest? Is Dave Doeren off to Nebraska if he gets a call? Should the league pursue Sun Belt teams?

theathletic.com

Is North Carolina’s Drake Maye the best QB in the ACC or clearly the best QB in the ACC? — Jack D.

Navarro: Right now, if we’re going simply off numbers and performance through Week 2, I’d give the slight nod to Syracuse’s Garrett Shrader over Maye.


Shrader has the highest adjusted completion percentage in the league (89.4 percent), highest NFL passer rating (145.7) and a perfect 5-0 touchdown to interception ratio. Shrader has also run for 167 yards and three touchdowns, not including sacks.

Maye has the second-best adjusted completion percentage in the league (81.5 percent), the fourth-highest NFL passer rating (135.8) and a near-perfect 11-1 touchdown to interception ratio. His six big-time throws are tops in the league, and he has run 12 times for 158 yards and a score, not including sacks.

It would be a fun exercise to rank the ACC’s quarterbacks with our own scoring system that combines what they do both as passers and runners, taking into account how they perform under pressure and quality of opponent. But I’d prefer to start maybe next week when we’ve got a little bit more of a sample to work with.

In the meantime, here’s a look at some numbers comparing the league’s starters thus far.

ACC quarterbacks (w/adjusted completion percentage)

Garrett Shrader		89.4%	264	5-0	145.7
Sam Hartman		66.7%	300	4-0	143.5

Drake Maye		81.5%	310	11-1	135.8
Tyler Van Dyke		81.4%	224	3-1	117.7
Riley Leonard		78.0%	284	3-1	113.8
Jordan Travis		70.8%	233.5	2-0	110.3
Devin Leary		67.9%	224.5	5-1	103.3
Kedon Slovis		71.7%	251.5	2-1	100.7
DJ Uiagalelei		82.1%	220.5	3-1	98
