Classic Let Down Spot

[Tiger]

Only one play tonight and it is not a stat play, but rather more of a thinking between the lines play:


Clemson(+10).....1st half
-----------------------------------------------------------------

This is a classic let down spot for North Carolina. After their emotional win two days ago at NC State, they are now playing the league doormat. Let-down?

In fact by my count, North Carolina has been playing emotional games for the entire last month with games against NC State, the 2 point loss to Virginia, key home wins over FSU and Maryland, big road games at GTech(loss) and Wake Forest(win) and of course, the OT loss to Duke. With another meeting with Duke looming on the horizon (this Saturday), could this be let-down time tonight?

Over 40 minutes, the Tar Heels have far too much talent for the Tigers, and yes, I do expect that by the 2nd half they will get their act together and win this one, but this play is based on them coming out very flat in the 1st 20 minutes.

Good luck out there tonight,
Tiger

I've got one that's even better!

Syracuse (-1') @ West Virginia

Talk about a letdown. The Orangemen just ended Pittsburgh's 40 game home winning streak. Think they will be fired up for West Virginia tonight?

Good luck!

Good one there too LL, you're probably right, but I think the difference between our two plays is that yours is basically a pick'em game over 40 minutes, while mine is a 20 minute game where I start with a 10 point lead.

Good luck.
