January 19, 2021

Yes, we know it's still January and we're in the middle of winter but forgive us for having an optimistic spring in our step. You see, the thought of having an even close to normal season in multiple sports has made us giddy. Before we get back on track with looking at ACC men's basketball with our special guests we take a moment to wrap up football. Well, we also take a look ahead with a plethora of Way-Too-Early Top 25 polls. You really need to hear them to believe them.
