Gobbler Country's Post-Spring ACC Power Poll

Spring drills are done for the entire league and most teams are coming out of them with high hopes for the 2010 season. And since everyone else is releasing a post-spring poll of some sort, here's a way, way, way too early guess as to how the standings will shake out. This will definitely change between now and September.

Star-divide

Atlantic Coast Conference

Atlantic Division

1. Florida State Seminoles
- Because the D is no longer clueless.

2. Boston College Eagles
- Because they still need a decent QB.

3. Clemson Tigers
- Because the I don't trust their O-line.

4. Maryland Terrapins
- Because their QB play will be improved.

5. NC State Wolfpack
- Because Nate Irving can't play DE and FS, too.

6. Wake Forest Demon Deacons
- Because they won't score many points.

Coastal Division

1. Virginia Tech Hokies
- Because I'm a homer.

2. Miami Hurricanes
- Because the secondary and O-line still need work.

3. Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
- Because they lost too much on defense.

4. North Carolina Tar Heels
- Because T.J. Yates still doesn't impress anyone.

5. Duke Blue Devils
- Because it looks like they have something resembling a run game.

6. Virginia Cavaliers
- Because you don't get points for optimism.

agree with this mostly, i put my in-depth post-spring power rankings up tonight

From my early days listening to Bill Roth depict a dazzling Michael Vick dance around the field to glory until now, it has been more than a pleasure to be a Hokie fan. Since 1998, there has only been one game played in Lane Stadium I did not attend (stupid chicken pox), and I dread the day where I am not fortunate enough to be in the stands week after week.

It's a great day to be a Hokie!

Atlantic: Yes...Coastal: Not so much

I can’t really make heads or tails of the Atlantic Division…as usual, so no argument there. But, I do differ on my opinion of the Coastal Division. I think Georgia Tech is going to take a TREMENDOUS step back this year. I know, I know, I know…“WHAT A COACH PAUL JOHNSON IS!” And I know what a great system that has been so far in the ACC…BUT, losing a WR, QB, RB, and high profile DE (their four best players) is going to be tough to overcome. I feel like UNC has a legitimate chance to finish #2, and even #1! If Tech doesn’t end up winning the division, I would expect to be see the Tarheels be that team. They have too much athletic talent for even Butch or TJ Yates to mess up…kind of like us with Glennon in ’07. I could see GT finishing anywhere from third to even FIFTH, but I see them in fourth and UNC in second.

Really? I thought he declared. Maybe it’s just some wishful thinking.
