[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 903537, member: 4572"] I think it’s plausible. The way I see it, both us and UVA have byes this week in preparation for the Thursday night game. We’re coming off a high, they’re coming off a low. They’ve lost 3 in a row including 2 pretty bad beat downs against Duke and Louisville. We’ve won 2 close games that could’ve very easily went the other way. We’ll be playing at home with (hopefully) a very energized crowd and I think we’ll be able to hold on in another game that’s close on the scoreboard but that we control the game in. Very similar to how Duke played out. We get another long week to prepare for FSU, who will be coming off a bye week and a game against Clemson. It’s very likely they will also have 3 straight losses coming into our game with a lot of time to prepare. We could also be a trap game for them, as we are sandwiched between Clemson and Miami on their schedule, but their bye week may mitigate some of that. It’s hard to go into Tallahassee and win, and I think they’re going to be hungry after the Clemson game and a bye week. I think we drop a close one to FSU, kind of the opposite of the Duke game. FSU controls the game but we hang around and keep it close and give ourselves a chance to win. That would put us at 4-4 and 3-2 in conference. I think we answer big time the next week against VT. They will have just played NC ST on the road in what will likely be a very lopsided game. The Lane Stadium crowd will be small and disinterested. A VT team that’s already not very good.
