0:44 – Jim’s got 99 problems … and the ACC Power Rankings are 98 of them. Also, just how low can the ACC’s “Big Four” go?

3:48 – Hayes is feeling kind of optimistic about Wake … Jim’s not on board yet.

9:58 – Hayes believes in the “Dead Stadium Home Field Advantage” … Jim’s not quite on board with this either.

15:40 – Are we having hot seat talk already? Did you catch the second half of UVa-Ball State? Hayes then has an interesting factoid about Jon Tenuta … with no research to back it up. Is it time to hire a show intern? All the while Hayes munches on Twizzlers.

20:13 -GAME OF THE CENTURY!!! Jim and Hayes talk Clemson-FSU and Hayes ramps up talk for the … rematch? … Jim’s not on board here either.

23:48 – Maryland finally stumbles, and the rest of the ACC Twitterati was ready to pounce. Hayes keeps trying to make the case for his FSU-Clemson national title game pipe dream.

29:45 – Repeat after us, kids: “Conference strength is ALL about your top teams.”
