Post game thoughts (Rutgers)

Damn just noticed Xavier is ranked #12 in the country. Good chance they'll still be undefeated when we play them--only tough game is Cincy who they get at home. Would be huge to have a top 10 win on the resume before acc schedule begins. I think this is a very winnable game for us. I'd put Xavier in the second tier of acc teams (Cuse, Miami, LVille, FSU, ND, Pitt, NCST) and Wake is going to have to win the majority of home games against these teams if they expect to have a successful year.

Xavier went to Michigan and smashed them. Think they are better than most of that ACC group you mention above.

They probably are, but it's a little early to start definitively ranking those teams against each other. At least one of those teams will surprise a lot of people and finish near the top of the league. Seems every year there's a team unranked in the preseason who finishes in the top 3 of the league. ND in '15, UVA in '14, Miami in '13, FSU in '12, etc. The key question will be if Wake can make the jump from tier 3(BC, Clemson, VT, GT) to tier 2.
Also,if Syracuse can beat Wisconsin and then Georgetown this week, they would make the jump to tier 1. Their resume is impressive!
