Did a quick search for this and nothing came up, but please move this if I wasn't thorough enough, but remember the basketball prestige rankings ESPN came out with over the summer? Well, they are doing the same thing for football this week. Number 1 hasn't been named yet, but I was pretty surprised to see Duke ranked at #38, ahead of several ACC schools like BC, Wake, Virginia, NC State, and - the best one - Carolina, among several other schools that have been successful as of late. It's important to keep in mind that these rankings go back all the way to 1936, and I know that Duke had some great teams in that stretch, but I was still impressed given our futility in recent years.
