Beau Pribula couldn’t have asked for a better Virginia debut.

The Cavaliers dominated NC State 34-8, while Pribula was incredibly efficient through the air and dangerous on the ground. Meanwhile, CJ Bailey struggled badly as NC State’s offense couldn’t get anything going.

Did CJ Bailey make a massive mistake by staying at NC State? And is Beau Pribula actually ready to become one of the ACC’s best quarterbacks?

Pribula looked flawless, but there’s one BIG question: Virginia only asked him to throw 11 passes. We need to see more from him through the air before we know exactly what this offense can become.

Are you SOLD on Beau Pribula after Week 0?

UNC got the win over TCU in Ireland, but I’m still not convinced this Tar Heels team is ready to take the next step.

Bill Belichick gets a huge result to open the season, and UNC’s defense absolutely deserves credit. But the offense was inconsistent, the game was sloppy, and there are still plenty of questions surrounding this team.

Was this a statement win for Belichick, or did UNC simply survive a TCU team that made too many mistakes?

Let me know — are you SOLD on UNC after Week 0?

Miami is not just the favorite to win the ACC — they might be BY FAR the best team in the conference.

After making the National Championship Game last season, Miami returns with elite talent across the roster and adds Darian Mensah at quarterback. The Hurricanes have the talent, experience and depth to separate themselves from the rest of the ACC.

But is there ANY team in this conference capable of actually challenging Miami?
