ACC Nation podcast with Will and Jim wraps up the football season with a look at the Miami CFP Championship run, transfer portal action, the final Top 25’s and ACC players in the first round of the NFL Mock Draft at this point.

Tip of the hat to Pitt’s Olivia Babcock, a spectacular volleyball player who has won the Honda Sport Award for the sport and it’s her second straight season as the top finisher.

The NCAA’s Andy Katz is projecting 8 ACC men’s basketball teams to make the tournament this year. That’s a significant improvement over the last few years. Katz has a No. 1 seed, a No. 4 seed, a No. 5 seed, two No. 6 seeds, two No. 8 seeds and a team playing in at No. 11.

This episode of the podcast looks at the latest NCAA NET Rankings for men and women, recent games and how Quadrant 1 action can make or break teams across the board.

What might it feel like living in 1970? On this episode of ACC Nation podcast we’re joined by special guest David Doda, a member of the Wake Forest football team that won their first conference championship since the school had helped form it in 1953.

History books looking at 1970 are filled with things like the Vietnam war, the Beatles breaking up, Joe Frazier becoming the World Heavyweight Champion in boxing and the movie M*A*S*H premiering among others. But, in Winston-Salem a group of young men who were dismissed by sportswriters of the time came together under Coach Cal Stoll for a journey they’ll never forget and Doda shares his memories in his book, No Offense, No Defense, No Hope.

The road to victory is seldom as smooth as imagined. The struggles as players, as young men living in a troubled world and personal loss often helps forge lasting relationships. Having an old school coach that holds your feet to the fire builds comradery and focuses you on things at hand rather than the whirling dervish outside of campus.

Doda’s book is available at Amazon and is a fascinating read for anyone who is into college football, interested in history and especially for Wake Forest alumni and fans.

Who among you had an ACC team in the CFP Championship game? ACC Nation podcast with Will Ojanen and Jim Quist take a look at Miami and their journey to the title game. Don’t let anyone tell you that the conference is weak or unable to compete against the assumed powerhouses because it’s obviously not true. With financial incentives being spread far and wide among college teams parity is kicking in and what once was is no longer.

The guys jump into ACC men’s and women’s basketball. The men’s side has fallen on hard times the last few years but there is clearly a re-emergence underway and more teams than ever fighting for a spot in the top tier. The women have carried the prestige of the conference during the men’s falling off and at the beginning of the season experience their own stumble. It now appears as if they too are rising like the Phoenix.

There’s no better time to begin a hot streak than now and through the ACC tournament. Teams need to collect, as they point out on the podcast as many Q1 wins (or even losses if it’s close) to improve their NCAA NET rankings (men – women).
