Ummmm.... disclaimer, I'm not an expert on this, but according to my
understanding of how Cisco access lists work, the incoming filter you
showed actually does nothing at all.  The normal situation is that
packets are coming in from random addresses, destined for your
internal network.  There is nothing in this filter that prevents your
own source addresses from being spoofed outside your border.

It seems to me that you want something more like this, which is what
we have in place:

        acc 102 deny ip 198.138.103.0 0.0.0.255 any
        ...
        acc 102 permit any any

It seems to work for us.  Please let me know if I'm missing something here!
