It's not just the ACC, seems the whole country is loaded with top notch tailbacks. Jonathan Stewart at Oregon is a stud, and believe this, Keiland(sp) Williams at LSU will be a household name in the near future. Not to mention Steve Slaton, Tyrell Sutton and several others all over the country.
I certainly agree with you on K. Williams!! Kid was an outright stud in HS and at Hargrave!! I think he's over 220 now and runs around a 4.4 40 and really put on a show during the spring. I just hope the Hokies are able to get off their blocks and gang tackle this one or it will be a long, long night in the Bayou!

Spiller and Davis never even got mentioned, Now I'm a little biased being a Clemson fan and all, but they are prolly the most dangerous duo in the east... </div></div>
Even though the dynamic duo never showed in the Burg last season they are pretty good, I'd have to say White/Slaton is the most dangerous duo in the east. I wonder how either Davis or Spiller would hold up if they had to carry the bulk of the offense?
I think Ore deserves to be on the list because with Glennon at QB everyone knew they were getting a dose of Ore and he still performed pretty well behind a sub-par line.
I wonder how great Slaton and White would be if they actually played anyone worth a damn every week. One game against Georgia means very little when you play against supbar competition all the other weeks.
And you, my friend, have a valid point there.
And one other thing...looks like WVU is likely to be highly ranked in the preseason polls!! And a favorable schedule to boot.

Doesn't matter about the favorable schedule for them...I think them, Rutgers, and Louisville will all get in each others' way. All 3 of them go 1-1 against the other two, and then it will come down to tiebreakers to decide the Big East champ. Just a small prediciton on my part.
For the record, Rivals put WVU at #2 in their preseason rankings.
I'd say that's a good prediction on WVU, UL, and Ruts. Have to admit those were some entertaining games last year.
I think Louisville may be the team to go undefeated there. They have a better coach now. Their offense will be the same with Brohm but they will be much more disciplined and have a better D. Thats my take at least.

VT - Tyrod taylor
Clemson - Willy Korn
UNC - Mike Paulus
UVa - Peter Lalich
Miami - Robert Marve
Maryland - Jeremy Ricker
NCSU - Mike Glennon
FSU - E.J. Manuel
Georgia tech - Josh Nesbitt
that's 3/4 of the conference with a 4-star or higher qb...so i'd say that'll change in 2-3 years </div></div>
i think the QB situation will get better for the ACC but 4 star recruits doesnt mean anything if they cant get the job done when they get in the game. You cant say they are gonig to be any better til there time comes.
