N.C. STATE (4-2, 1-1) at MARYLAND (4-2, 2-0). There is talk
that a Wolfpack win in College Park would be an upset, but we aren’t so sure.
Maryland is much improved with a solid defense and big output from Stefon Diggs
(239 all-purpose yards last week against the Hoos.), but N.C. State beat a
pretty darn good Florida State team and they’ve had a week off to prepare.
No. 14 FLORIDA STATE (6-1, 3-1) at MIAMI (4-3, 3-1). Miami can’t stop the run (giving up 253 yards
per game) and their starting quarterback may not play due to a bum ankle. Florida State should win fairly easily. If
not, look for the Tallahassee fan base to go CRAZY...and NOT in a good way.
NORTH CAROLINA (5-2, 2-1) at DUKE (5-2, 2-1). Ahhh…the
battle for the Victory Bell. This promises to be one of the better match ups in
this long (if not storied) football rivalry.
In the 99th meeting between the two, Duke looks to get bowl
eligible while winning for the first time since 2003. The Heels should just give the ball to Giovani
Bernard, who has 2,956 yards (OK, actually it’s 439 yards) rushing in the last
two weeks.
WAKE FOREST (3-3, 1-3) at VIRGINIA (2-5, 0-3). This could be
hard to watch and expect plenty of Wahoo fans disguised as empty seats at this
one…UVA has lost five straight ACC games and Wake has lost three of their last
four. Looking back, one has to ask “how
in the world did the Demon Deacons beat UNC with or without Giovani Bernard?”
BOSTON COLLEGE (1-5, 0-3) at GEORGIA TECH (2-4, 1-3). Weird
to see the Jackets with a 2-4 record at this point in the season and BC has yet
to beat a FBS team…Georgia Tech didn’t lose last week (they had a bye) while
the Eagles were getting squashed by an angry Florida State. GT fired Al Groh as Defensive Coordinator and
replaced him with Charles Kelly. Good
luck with that…oh yeah, it’s Boston College.
