ND beat OKState, who is last in the B12

and OK, TCU and Baylor lost to teams that are higher in the ACC standings than they are in the B12 standings. So our good teams beat their mediocre....yaaay us.

Clemson is doing just fine because they laid the wood to teams in

dallasvt • 01/31/24 11:50 AM ET
I think that would be tough.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 01/31/24 12:08 PM ET

Several ACC teams had important players missing due to the transfer rulings
hokiepro • 01/31/24 03:05 PM ET
They lost those games. Of course their ranking should take a hit.

NokieHokie • 01/31/24 12:11 PM ET
That’s of course true but if you look at the results??
hokiepro • 01/31/24 12:37 PM ET

Vienna_Hokie • 01/31/24 01:01 PM ET
ISU, Baylor, OU, TCU are all top 1/2 of league
hokiepro • 01/31/24 01:08 PM ET

They aren't...but ESPN has a larger goal of killing the ACC...
