re: The 7th/8th best SEC team is a touchdown underdog vs. the 4th/5th best ACC team

Does this seem hard to believe to anyone else? Not that Virginia Tech is favored against Arkansas, but that the SEC has fallen off this much seemingly so quickly. It's hard to believe this scenario occurring 3-4 years ago.

The ACC has really good coaches. Justin Fuente is one of the best in the country, in my opinion.

Petrino is a really good coach and had Arky humming when he was there. Richt was a really good coach and had Georgia winning 10 games every year. Cutcliffe is a pretty damn good coach.

Dabo, Jimbo, and Fedora are all good coaches. Narduzzi, Mendenhall, Addazio, and Babers are all pretty solid.

eta: top to bottom the head coaching in the ACC is considerably better than the head coaching in the SEC. I can't really speak to assistant/position coaches, as I am not as familiar.
