IT'S HUMP DAY, HAVE A LINK

Here’s the ACC non-conference rewind to date, and, as you well know, it ain’t so great.

*Here's a quick rundown for Georgia Tech fans on this week's opponent, Mississippi State.

*BC coach Frank Spaziani looks past Florida State's inconsistencies and sees only its athleticism.

*The Noles aren't the only team that havs looked different from one week to the next.

*UNC is still trying to figure out its identity after the loss to Georgia Tech.

*Clemson backup quarterback Willy Korn is like every other backup -- he just wants to play. He said he remains committed to Clemson this season, but next? Who knows?

*NC State's defense isn't getting wrapped up in its impressive stats this season. Those within the program say there's still room to improve.

*Virginia had a productive bye week and now that the conference play is starting, views it as a new season. Al Groh got time to watch other games across the country and said he saw a lot of teams and players being anointed way too early. It's also too soon to count Groh out.

*Oklahoma can score. Can Miami's defense stop the Sooners? Defensive coordinator John Lovett wanted to make darn sure they don't forget what happened against Virginia Tech.

*Sure, the NFL is nice, but Virginia Tech defensive tackle Demetrius Taylor has his heart set on these three letters -- FBI.

*There's one very good explanation for Maryland's troubles this season, and it's the recruiting on the offensive line.

*FSU freshman defensive tackle Jacobbi McDaniel could miss Saturday's game at BC.
