cavs +11: in the tradition of my avatar, I submit that the tarheels are the pretenders of the acc and will lay out my case. let's deconstruct unc's record. heels currently sit @ 5-2. two ofthose wins (pitt, @ fsu) were miracle wins in games that the heels should have lost. while those two teams are decent, neither are fielding their best teams this year. the other 3 wins came vs james madison, Illinois, and @ Miami, who we all know ain't all that this year. the two losses came @ Georgia in a down season for the bulldogs, and then the heels were gang raped in chapel hill by the hokies, a real football team. take away the two miracle wins and the heels are 3-5, dead in the water and, instead of talking about an acc championship game, they'd be talking about larry fedora's job in chapel hill. so today the heels take to the road for the 3rd time in 4 weeks, after games @ fsu, vs va tech, and @ Miami, unc travels to Charlottesville for the 121st meeting of the south's oldest rivalry. while they might not consider this a rivalry game in chapel hill, they still do in Charlottesville. just ask mike London, the former cav coach who got shown the door after going 0-6 vs unc during his tenure. also, this has been a bad injury week for the heel. Carolina's star wr and return man mack hollins is out; also out are lg caleb Peterson and rt jon heck. that leaves the heels with 2 o line starters they began the season with.
cavs are in the middle of an inconsistent year, but had a decent streak going with wins against a decent c mich team and @ duke until they collapsed in the second half of last week's game vs pitt, at least partially because of some look-ahead to this game. there's been a little buzz on uva's campus this week because of an anti-hazing lawsuit brought by a former player, that names, among others, a couple of cav receivers and asst coaches, but it doesn't appear to have been too much of a distraction. I like this setup enough to go a unit with the +1 and a unit on the moneyline @ +350.
ok saint, you're up.
