Just how bad is the ACC’s Coastal Division?

This past Friday morning after the lowly 5-5 Tar heels were able to so easily dismantle what the media would want you to believe is the greatest power led by the greatest football coach in ACC history, we asked a fair question of what that means for the positioning of the ACC Coastal?

After yesterday I REALLY have to re-ask the question after Wake Forest – which among the worst ACC football teams I’ve ever seen – was able to beat the Coastal’s Virginia Tech Hokies just one week after the Hokies were also able to beat the ‘mighty’ Duke Blue Devils in Durham.

An SFN author made the following point in a previous thread with which I agree:

– A team is more likely to have “sure” wins in the Atlantic (with Wake & Syracuse)
– A team is more likely to have “sure” losses in the Atlantic (with FSU, Clemson and even Louisville)
– The Coastal is much more balanced and competitive than the Atlantic; but, that balance and competition is not at a very high level.

Oh well, the following screen grab from yesterday is fantastic. My oh my how the (former) mighty have fallen.

    It’s probably as bad as the SEC West is good.

    Watching that live was surreal. Seeing the coach of a team that was expected to compete for a title every year celebrate a regulation tie with conference winless Wake was O_o

    Watching that in person was comical. Got a last minute invite and sat on WF’s hill. The best football was played by my youngest and other boys on the hill, not by the teams on the field.

    My 11 year old asked, ‘did they play for 3 hours and no one scored?’
