take the over whatever it is

 

[Jmonty71]

Think UNC beats us by 14, personally

 

[stech81]

Do they have any TE's ?

 

[Longestday]

Miami over Pitt? really?

 

[jeffgt14]

I'd take Cuse and FSU

 

[InsideLB]

Wow I was thinking we would open as 11-point dogs and voila.

 

[Boomergump]

Doesn't mean a lot. Still gotta play.

Mack Hollins being out helps a lot. Hopeful that allow us to creep up our safeties(doubt it). We are due for our how did we pull that off game. Not sure if it's this week or next

Hopefully both weeks lol.

But. I thought we just had that game. Against Dook.

We can win this one with 35+ points. Not likely but possible.

We are going to win at least one more in the next four, IMHO. Maybe 2 or 3. Playing with house money ( and little d).

Duke was the how GT almost pulled defeat from the jaws of certain victory ala GSU 2014.

BC was willing us to win.

Miami was the bad luck game

Pitt was the shoot out, last one to score wins

Clemson was the game GTs O never got started

Now we need to win one we are not suppose to win.

I think this is going to be a close game. We tend to always play these guys close.

We've scored less than 30 only three times vs. them in CPJ tenure, so getting 35+ may not be an issue. It's holding them under 30 that may be the issue. UNC is technically 1-8 vs us while scoring under 30 points (that win got vacated). So using @AE87 ppd, we need 4-5 stops to have a chance at winning this game

 

[BuzzStone]

Against better defenses they have scored in the mid 30s to say we need to take advantage of every time we get the ball would be an understatement. My guess is to see an over under around 55. I would take the over.

Passing D is not our string point... The Tar Heels quarterback - Mitch Trubisky - is currently No. 3 in FBS in completion percentage.

 

[Yaller Jacket]

I always find it interesting to see the national perception of the games as reflecting by where they set the lines.

I think two are two high. Just as I thought we were less than a touchdown better than Duke, I don't think we are 11 points worse than UNC. Also don't think VT is 10 points better than Duke.
Pitt vs Miami should be pick em, even up.

I guess someone must have been watching what Kentucky did to Missouri. Not that Missouri is particularly good, but Kentucky apparently dismantled them on both sides of the ball at their home field. I had always thought there was a clause in the SEC bylaws prohibiting Kentucky from ever fielding a good football team. The Dogs go up there heavy hearted after not being competitive at Jacksonville. They are in real danger of losing to Kentucky, whether they admit it or not.

*strong... not string

 

[sidewalkGTfan]

The only way I see us winning this game is us winning the TO margin by 2+. I have ZERO faith in our D to make them punt once in this game.
