Duke has been decent in football. Better than va tech over the past 10 years

I lied. Va tech has a better record.

Btw, my picks are Pitt, VA Tech, Louisville and NC State, Miami on the bubble

Pitt for sure is next on that list. I can see the U, NCST, VT and PITT.

Miami, Va Tech, NC State, and Pitt. Next up Louisville and Ga Tech.
