    Great stuff, thanks for taking time to do this!

    By the numbers, it really is a good football team. One capable of winning a very weak ACC, if only our coach wasn’t running scared.

    These numbers (especially on defense) do not scream “good football team” to me. Without Russell Wilson, this team would be struggling to make a bowl game.

    VaWolf, youcould make a similar argument for Auburn. If they didn’t have Newton, howgood would they be?

    You’ve missed the point of the discussion.
