5-9 in early going so contain the enthusiam. some early plays for today:
akron +24: zips will most probably score a few tds, and don't see wisky putting up a big enough number to cover 3+ tds.
nc state -7-: bucking recent trends to pick a pack cover at groves stadium, but don't see a lack of focus in this spot. amato always done a good job bringing his teams out of the gate, and this year is supposed to be special. mcclendon may be llimited today because of a knee tendon strain, but state is plenty deep at running back. in recent years, wolfpack has pretty well adapted to grobe's chop-blocking style on offense, a technique necessitated by undersized players. in the past groves stadium has been a pretty quiet place to play, being the smallest acc venue and home to a historically mediocre team. but, as a result of the early sellout of wolfpack home games, state fans have purchased 10,000+ tickets to this game in winston-salem, giving the deacons their first home sellout in 17 years. unfotunately for wake, most in attendence will be wearing red. rivers and company should coast by two tds or more.
bowling green +11: i'm with hellah, i believe mac football is much better than given credit for, no ill's win over md being only the latest example. i see no reason for a dd line here.
syracuse -1: as i commented in another thread, tarheel football still paying the price for torbush's last recruiting year. visitors have won the last three games in this series.
ga tech +8: not a buyer that tech is as bad as most say, ditto that auburn is as good as everyone says. jackets should stay within a td in low scoring game.
that's all for now. back later with other plays.
