Big Four Match Up

One third of the college football season is in the books and each and every week more and more conferences games occur.  Running out of gimme games.  Last week went 6-2 to push my college picks to 39-14.  We start this week in Raleigh.

Wake Forest 4-0 @ NC State 2-1:  Besides Notre Dame being 1-3 the surprise team of the year is Wake Forest.  The big question is how strong is their schedule with Duke being one of the wins who by the way beat Notre Dame in South Bend.  Dave Doeren job is in serious trouble If the Pack fails to win this one. State 34 Wake 24

Huntingdon 3-0 @ North Carolina Wesleyan 1-2:  Huntingdon voted as pre season favorites and the Battling Bishops third.  Hard way to start conference play against top seed.  Expect high scoring game Huntingdon 35 Bishops 27

UCF 2-2 @ ECU 2-2:  If the Pirates don't buckle their chin straps before the game they could get clipped in this one.  Since opening night the Pirates have not played well and they had better in this one ECU 36 UCF 32

North Carolina 3-1 @ Florida State 3-1.  This game might have 100 points scored in this one.  The big question is can the Heels defense hold the Noles under 50.  Seminoles 52 Carolina 37

Miami 3-0 @ Georgia Tech 3-1:  I think we will  find out in this one whether Miami is a player or a pretender in this game.  Canes 38 Tech 24

Louisville 4-0  @ Clemson 4-0:  This just might be the game of the year in the ACC. If two ACC teams were to make it to the playoffs these would be the two.  However being in same division means one will not make it to the ACC championship game which is now set for Orlando.  The Tigers win at home 42-38.

Virginia 1-3 @ Duke 2-2:  Duke won where few others do.  Looked like they were going to be blown out and yet they win in South Bend.  Duke 40 Virginia 20

Marshall 1-2 @ Pitt 2-2:  Pitt is a team that if you have them on the schedule for rest of the year you had better look out.  Pitt 45 Marshall 24

Notre Dame 1-3 @ Syracuse 2-2:  This will be the kind of game that tells us whether the Fighting Irish are this bad or not. If they struggle in this one they are bad.  Irish should win this one easily. ND 38 Cuse 21

Buffalo 1-2 @ Boston College 2-2:   BC has won twice against weaklings.  They should get another  BC 31 Buffalo 24.

Georgia State 0-3 @ App St 2-2:  The Mounties truly need this one.  App 42 GS 21
