By Zachary Osterman In four years, it's only featured a matchup of top-15 teams once. Attendance has decreased more than 250 percent from the inaugural game to last year's Boston College-Virginia Tech tilt, which featured a crowd of 27,360, a number that, amazingly, might have been inflated.

By Asher Feldman Atlantic Coast Conference Lurking: Boston College (Atlantic Division; 7-3, 4-2) Bowl Eligible Teams: Boston College Golden Eagles, Miami Hurricanes, Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, Virginia Tech Hokies, North Carolina Tar Heels.

By Zachary Osterman National perception is working against Georgia Tech's slim national title hopes, from several different angles. Essentially, Tech's schedule peaked at Virginia Tech, and while SEC opponents get their championship game and Cincinnati's schedule is backloaded with tough conferenc...

By Jeffrey Fann Let's start with the teams themselves. At 9-1 right now Georgia Tech could enter the ACC Championship as the first ACC team with less than two losses. The Yellow Jackets could potentially finish year 11-1 and mostly like ranked somewhere from No. 4 to No. 7. Clemson right is now 6-3 and right at or...

By Keith Shelton Paul Johnson came into Georgia Tech at the beginning of this year with a new system and had to replace ten starters on defense. His team is currently 9-1, first place in the ACC with wins over then No. 4 Virginia Tech and a ranked North Carolina team.

By Daniel Malkin The ACC and the Big East are pretty easy to project. Cincinnati will win in the Big East while Georgia Tech will win in the ACC. This means that both of these teams will be rewarded with a BCS bowl game berth. If the Bearcats go undefeated they could have a chance at playing for the national title. If...

By ACC SEC Blog Virginia Tech is coming off of a bye week, having lost to Georgia Tech the week before. With Miami's loss, the Hokies have to hope GT slips up, or else the Hokies can do no better than second in the Coastal. There has been a lot of talk surrounding the plays Frank Beamer submitted to the ACC about i...

By Seth Haynes Throwing fuel on the fire, Virginia Tech Head Coach Frank Beamer told ESPN he sent tape of these blocks to the ACC, and he referred to some of the play by Georgia Tech as "dangerous." Honestly, I think Frank Beamer and Bud Foster are more than a little upset about having Georgia Tech run all ove...

By Charles Anderson Virginia Tech's submission after the Georgia Tech game was considered a standard number of plays to have reviewed. Georgia Tech submitted a few of their own. But until this issue was made public by Frank Beamer, nobody said word one about it.

By Tim Bielik But quickly, Georgia Tech is starting to bring some more clarity to the big picture of the ACC title. A win over Virginia gives the Jackets a comfortable lead in the ACC Coastal Division. But outside of Miami, Georgia Tech, and Virginia Tech, there's not much to be sure of in the ACC other than t...

By Zachary Osterman It wasn't always pretty. The weather was terrible, the offense sputtered early, and Virginia hung around stubbornly. But Georgia Tech found a way, and a close game morphed quickly into a laugher in Charlottesville on Saturday, marking the first time since Tech's 1990 championship seaso...

By Zachary Osterman Still, Virginia Tech's second visit to Atlanta this season presents each of these teams with an attractive opportunity. If Georgia Tech wins, they insert themselves firmly back into the ACC Coastal—and BCS—picture(s). If Virginia Tech wins, the Hokies all but sew up another trip to the A...

By Justin Cocchiola However, the Hokies have an advantage in almost every category, and even last year’s game can help Virginia Tech. The Hokies beat Georgia Tech 20-17 in Blacksburg last year, but that was with an ineffective offense, no Ryan Williams, and Tyrod Taylor throwing for only 48 yards.

By Zachary Osterman That being said, it's going to be tough for the Yellow Jackets to go up by more than one score on the Hokies early in this one.  I would be surprised if the Hokies get down by double digits, and less surprised if they make a ramblin' wreck out of the Georgia Tech defense.

By Teddy Mitrosilis Virginia Tech welcomes Marshall to Blacksburg the following week, and the week after that is Nebraska at home, a game that will surely get Lane Stadium rocking at its core. Tech will go to Duke, Maryland, and Virginia while facing their toughest road tests at Georgia Tech (possible ACC tit...

By Brian Sakowski There are a lot of ACC teams with some big holes to fill, mainly Virginia Tech. The Hokies lost a lot of key players from their ACC Championship teams.
