Week 13 Results: Quick Hits

Boston College 16 @ Syracuse 7
The Eagles continue their win streak and hold off Syracuse. Freshman RB Andre Williams rushed for 185 yards in place of the injured star Montel Harris. Williams came up big Saturday in the Carrier Dome, helping the Eagles to victory.

Virginia 7 @ #16 Virginia Tech 37
The Hokies took advantage of playing in front of their home crowd and extended their win streak to an impressive 10 games. VT jumped on UVA early and never looked back.

Univeristy of Southern Florida 23 @ Miami 20
Miami gets stunned at home by rival USF in overtime. The Hurricanes fall to 7-5 on the season with this tough loss.

Florida 7 @ #22 Florida State 31
A very impressive win for the Seminoles. The win marks the first time Florida State has beaten rival UF since 2003.

#23 North Carolina State 31 @ Maryland 38
Wild game in College Park to say the least. The Wolfpack jumped to an early 14-0 lead but gave up 28 unanswered points to the Terps. With the loss, the Wolfpack's ACC title game hopes were also lost.

UNC 24 @ Duke 19
A bittersweet win the the Tar Heels here. After such a high preseason ranking, the Heels finish the season 7-5. Duke played the Tar Heels to until the end, but UNC was able to walk away with the win.

#18 South Carolina 29 @ Clemson 7
Clemson has to be unhappy with this result. Although the Gamecocks have been on a roll this season and won the SEC East, Clemson would have liked to have played better at home against their rival. The Tigers are still bowl eligible at 6-6, but may be left out of the mix.

Wake Forest 34 @ Vanderbilt 13
The Demon Deacons end the 2010 campaign on a good note, snapping a nine game losing streak at Vanderbilt on Saturday.

Georgia Tech 34 @ University of Georgia 42
The defending ACC champions, GT, are left shaking their heads at the end of the 2010 regular season. What could have been a special season turned into GT picking up the pieces. A loss to rival UGA to end the season isn't what the Yellow Jackets were looking for.

 #25 Florida State 30 @  Maryland 16

Maryland lost their chances of an ACC title game bid with their loss Saturday against FSU. The Noles used a solid and consistent offensive attack to hold of the Terps and continue their own title hopes. 

Week 12 Preview

As the ACC schedule rolls into it's second to last week, we have some great match-ups to look forward to:

 Virgina @  Boston College
- Look for Boston College RB Montel Harris to have a big day on the ground. If BC can establish a solid run game, look for them to have the advantage in this match-up.

 Duke @  Georgia Tech
- We all know what GT is going to do on every play, the triple option, but the question is, can you stop it? If Duke can hold GT's rushing attack they may be able to sneak a win out of this weeks road test.

 #16 Virginia Tech @  #24 Miami
- Big time ACC match-up this weekend in South Beach. Miami's starting QB Harris is still out so it's up to Freshman Stephen Morris to step up to the plate. A solid game from him and Miami's got a chance.

 North Carolina State @  North Carolina
- Numbers go out the window when it comes to this rivalry. These two teams always come out strong and fired up for their annual meeting. There's no telling which side will take this game but the QB match-up between TJ Yates and Russell Wilson is vital. Whichever QB plays better should decide the outcome.

 Clemson @  Wake Forest

- Wake is having a very rough season and Clemson is looking to avenge a loss last week to FSU. Clemson QB Kyle Parker should have a field day against Wake's shaky D.

 #25 Florida State @  Maryland
- Important Coastal Division game in College Park Saturday night. Each team must win for their title hopes to remain intact. FSU's defense in key in this game as Maryland has potent passing and rushing attacks.

Week 11 Wrap Up-What We Learned

What we learned:
 Miami: Despite not living up to their early season hype, Miami is making a strong finishing stand to their season. Don't look now but Miami is 7-3 and 5-2 in the ACC and freshman QB Sean Morris might have just won the starting spot over the injured Harris. With a win this weekend at home against #16 Virginia Tech, they could have a shot at the ACC Atlantic Division title.
ESPN wrap-up and highlights

 Georgia Tech: The Yellow Jackets have now lost their third straight game for the first time since 2006. The defending ACC champions have lost all their momentum and are struggling to become bowl eligible.

 Boston College: BC took home an impressive win this weekend at Duke and have now won three consecutive games. BC RB Harris rushed for 109 yards and despite two lost fumbles, has shown he is an All ACC back.

 Duke: Duke did not score an offensive touchdown on Saturday against BC and gave up 356 yards of total offense to the Eagles. A disappointing season so far for the Blue Devils, the road doesn't get easier with their final two games at GT and home against Carolina.

 Wake Forest: The Demon Deacons have had a tough season and their play at NC State of Saturday exemplified that. After keeping it close until halftime (NC State lead 7-3 at the break), the Deac's defense failed to show up in the second half, allowing the Wolfpack to rattle of 35 unanswered points.

 NC State: The Wolfpack were able to bounce back from a tough lost at Clemson two weeks ago and come out strong in the second half against WF. Junior QB Russell Wilson accounted for three Wolfpack touchdowns in what may have been his final home game at NC State and the Wolfpack are still tied at the top of the Coastal Division.

 Virginia Tech: The Hokies are legit. Virginia Tech won it's eighth straight game Saturday at UNC. Although the VT defense gave up 314 yards, they were able to force six turnovers and allowed only 10 points. With a win Saturday at Miami the Hokies clinch a trip to Charlotte for the ACC championship.

 North Carolina: QB TJ Yates threw four interceptions in their loss to VT and gave up more than 400 yards on defense. They did a good job of keeping pressure on and containing QB Tyrod Taylor's running game, but he was able to beat them with his arm, throwing for two touchdown passes. Carolina has the potential to be a good team but seems to have never recovered from their early season scandal and continuing NCAA investigation.

 Maryland: Maryland kept it interesting this past weekend in Charlottesville by overcoming a 23-21 fourth quarter deficit and putting up an impressive 21 points in the frame, posting a 42-23 win over Virginia.

 Virginia: UVA kept it close most of the game but game up a huge fourth quarter to the Terps. Virginia's having a tough time this season in the ACC, posting just a 1-5 record.

 Clemson: After a big win against NC State a week earlier, the Tigers came close to stealing one from the Seminoles on Saturday. The Tigers' defense, ranked 9th in FBS in points allowed, managed to keep the game close until the final minute.

 Florida State: FSU escaped at home this week with a win and kept their ACC title hopes alive. Clemson had the Seminoles on the ropes but a big time drive by back up QB EJ Manuel helped to lead the Noles on their way to a win. QB EJ Manuel, filling in for the injured Ponder, lead a drive with just 53 seconds remaining and kicker Dustin Hopkins stuck home a 55 yard field goal with just seconds remaining to solidify the win.
