Ranked Again!

After a comfortable win against Wake Forest (this Fox Sports article is a hoot), we're ranked again, even if just barely. This football season has been weird. I keep forgetting that we've only lost 2 games... it seems like our record should be much worse than 6-2; something like 3-5, for example. It certainly felt that way when Virginia Tech creamed us or when we let NC State beat us. The win at Auburn seems like years ago. And now, in the ultimate of ironies, consider these bits of trivia from last week's upsets as we wrap up things in-conference with 2 terrifying road games:

---Nov. 12th at Virginia... Boston College lost to UNC. But UNC lost to us. And, BC put the hurt on Virginia back in week 6. I'll cling to the belief that this is a good sign for our little trek to Charlottesville next week... we beat the team (UNC) that beat the team (BC) that beat Virginia...

---Nov. 19th at Miami... Virginia Tech lost (and how!) to Miami. We lost (and how!) to Virginia Tech. We play Miami in two weeks. It's either going to be really bad, or really good; especially considering that Miami's prize RB, Tyrone Moss (any relation to Randy?), is out for the rest of the season. We still have P.J. Daniels AND Tashard Choice... barring no injuries at Virginia from the previous week.
---Oh, and NC State, who beat us, also beat FSU. However, FSU beat Miami and lost to Virginia... how strange is that? I don't really know what it means for us (probably nothing) or the rest of our season, but it sure is fun to type anything about FSU being beaten/losing. Those guys make my skin crawl. (I can't even enjoy Braves games because I feel like I'm surrounded by stupid FSU fans!)

Man, I love ACC football.
