NC State might win only 4 more games this year, they still have Clemson, Louisville, Florida State, MIAMI, and unc on their schedule. Wake and Duke both aren't good.

I thinkk App St as good and with some luck could win out. But what does that even mean with your remaining schedule?

This weekend at Akron will tell us a lot. As far as SunBelt goes, both Georgia Southern and Troy look strong. You also can never rule out the Ragin' Cajuns, though they haven't looked the part in non-conference play. The kicker is all 4 of those games are on the road.

I don't think he was inquiring for a serious discussion, more of a backhanded compliment

Based purely on AP + Coaches Poll rankings:

1. UNC (51 + 51)
2. NC State (9 + 34)
3. Wake Forest (1 + 6)
4. App (0 + 3)

ECU is better than their record. Charlotte just squeaked by Florida Atlantic for their first ever C-USA win.

Reasonable when you use the votes.
