WoodshedFirst, let me say that this is my second post on the (unofficial) ACC - SEC Challenge, and it's already the second time I have to admit to screwing up. As helpful reader Kevin Ryan pointed out to me, I completely spaced on the Virginia - Auburn game from Friday night. Considering that I'm a Cavalier fan and watched the whole game, you'd think I'd have remembered. Nope. But, as Kevin wrote, the Virginia - Auburn game being one day before the other games nicely paralleled the ACC - Big Ten "Challenge," where NC State beat Purdue one day ahead of the other games.

So, that game, plus the four on Saturday, makes five (yeah, I'm pretty good at math). For the finale, Georgia Tech met their rivals Georgia on Sunday night. It was ugly. The Yellow Jackets beat the Bulldogs even worse than they did Michigan earlier in the week. They spanked Uga and friends by 38 points! It was the worst beating ever in the rivalry. What a way to end the ACC - SEC Challenge!

Six games. Six wins for the ACC. Even if all eleven teams had played, the ACC would have already clinched the win. And remember, of the five ACC teams that didn't play an SEC opponent this weekend, four of them are ranked.

Who's next?
