DUKE @ VIRGINIA TECH (-9.5), 12:30 PM, TV: ACC Network (XM 190 SIRIUS 135) - If the Blue Devils find a way to upset the Hokies in Blacksburg, Virginia Tech might fire Frank Beamer and disband the program right there on the spot.  Look for the Hokies to improve defensively after giving up a “most ever to an ACC opponent” 48 points in Chapel Hill last week.

NORTH CAROLINA (-3.5) @ MIAMI, 2:30 PM, TV: ESPNU (XM 191 SIRIUS 123) - Probably the best game of the week.  North Carolina can probably outscore the Canes, don’t look for much defense in this one. 

MARYLAND @ VIRGINIA (-3), 3:00 PM, TV: RSN (XM 193 SIRIUS 136) - The Hoos are struggling and young Maryland gets more confident every game behind a stingy defense. 

BOSTON COLLEGE (-27) @ #12 FLORIDA STATE, 5:30 PM, TV: ESPN2 (XM 197 SIRIUS 128) - The Eagles are not good and Noles are pissed off...Doesn’t matter who calls the plays, FSU wins.

Clemson, Georgia Tech, N.C. State and Wake Forest have the week off.
