Bowl Bids Up For Sale

This week is the first week of full fledged conference action and if you are interested in being in the final four in the playoffs you had better at least win your division. Last week went 5-3 reducing my record to 42-10.

Louisville 1-3 @ NC State 4-0.  All the experts are doing whatever it takes to shun State's 4-0 start.  We will find out Saturday at 12:30 as State opens conference play hosting Louisville.  The Ville struggling to find an acceptable quarterback.  Pack almost won this one last year in Louisville.  Pack may be most improved team in the country despite winning 8 games last year.  Pack 27 Louisville 20.

North Carolina 3-1 @ Georgia Tech 2-2:  I just don't see Carolina going to Atlanta  and winning this game.  Tech Can't be as bad as last two weeks losing on the road.  I am not real keen on Carolina 's quarterback.  Could be high scoring game.  GT 31 Carolina 27

BC 3-1 @ Duke 3-1:  is Duke playing all  their games this year at home?  Should be low scoring game but Duke I now believe defense is better than last but their problem is the offense.  Duke 16 Boston College 10

ECU 2-2 @ SMU 1-3:  The Pirates need to not have a let down like they did last year after big wins.  Pirates 27 SMU 24

Florida State 3-0 @ Wake Forest 2-2:  this is not a Florida State team that will make final four.  Wake is improved and this game will be closer than most think.  FSU 35 Wake 24

Miami 3-0 @ Cincinnati 2-2:  Should be a nail biter but this will be the game to determine whether Miami is a serious contender for ACC title.  MI 33 Cinn.  27

Pitt 2-1 @ Virginia Tech 2-2.  Pitt just may go into Blacksburg  and win.

North Carolina Wesleyan 0-3 @ Huntindon 2-2:  The Bishops lost all three of their home games to start the season.  Saturday first  road game for Wesleyan.  They will be 0-4 before help is on the way. I will be on PA for rest of the home games so I will do best I can coaching from press box.  Huntington 27 NCW 20
