ACC Coastal Division loaded with contenders
Posted Jul 27, 2010
The best division in college football just might reside in the ACC. The ACC's Coastal Division is home to four teams ranked in the Sporting News Top 25 — Miami (No. 4), Virginia Tech (No. 12), Georgia Tech (No. 18) and UNC (No. 23). The Tar Heels are loaded with defensive talent — Robert Quinn, Bruce Carter and Marvin Austin (whose eligibility is in question) are all first-round picks in the latest Sporting News NFL mock draft.
