Another Critical Week

Last Week went 6-2 on college picks to run my record to 51-18.  We are at the point in the season where every game now has an effect on Bowl Games.  As long as you have only lost one conference game you are still in the running for the division title.  A division title gets you in the conference championship game.

North Carolina Wesleyan 2-3 @ Greensboro College 1-5:  Their five losses Greensboro has given up 228 points.  Their record shows three losses but as far as the Battling Bishops are concerned they have all been to heavy weights.  Bishops 38 Greensboro 17

ECU 2-4 @ Cincinnati 3-3:  There  is no doubt the Pirates ship is sinking having lost four in a row after winning their opening two.  Doubt they break losing streak in Ohio.  Would love to see the Pirate defense improve.  Bearcats 33 Pirates 27

NC State 4-2 @ Louisville 5-1:  I don't know if I have  ever seen the Wolfpack  defense play any better than they did against the Tigers.  It is a pity Rocky Mount High  School has a better kicker than the Wolfpack.  If D plays as well this week Pack has a chance Louisville 26 NC State 24


North Carolina 5-2 @ Virginia 2-4:  V Tech loss last week puts the Heels right back in the division lead.. Virginia is much improved since first couple of weeks but not to the Tar Heels level Carolina 44 Virginia 21

  Duke 3-4 @ Georgia Tech:  There is just something about Duke that they seem to be able to make other teams play poorly.  Has not led to a win every week but the Devils have been in every game most of he time.  Duke 27 Georgia Tech 24

Miami 4-2 @ Virginia Tech 4-2:  Both teams have had moments this year that they look like title contenders.  They both have two losses that they looked lost.  I have a feeling Blacksburg is a good place for a Gobbler win.  Va Tech 30 Miami 24

Syracuse 3-4 @ Boston College 3-3:  All of a sudden the Orange are scoring points. BC hasn't scored much but defense has played well.  Have a feeling the Cuse wins on the road. 38 -27
