I think they are right about VT, wrong about Duke, and way, way wrong about UNC.
Imho, Eric is right. The main problem the Turkies had last year was losing their top three RBs to injury. When they were healthy they beat - ahem - the national champs. Their OL is no great shakes, but having good RBs sure does help in that department. That McKensie is gone doesn't help them and I think we can and will beat them, but I could easily be wrong.
Imho, DTGT is right about Puke. David Cutliffe is a right good football coach. They lost a lot, but they've been recruiting fairly well and they seem to find replacements. Their big problem is replacing Jamison Crowder. Gooooood luck with that. I think we win this one too and I'm more optimistic then about VT. Problem = we are playing them up there. Recently, this has not helped.
Imho, the Athlon people can't watch film. UNC sucked last year on D and, unfortunately, a lot of that outfit is back. Their O will be decent, but no more. I thought that when Fedora went up there that the conference was in a heap of trouble, but even he can't make much out of the program. Sheer lack of discipline, I think.
Imho, the team to watch coming up next year is Pitt. They have really good skill people, the best RB in the conference, and their new HC is unlikely to actively lose games for them.
