Jackets open as 3.5 point favorites vs. Minnesota.

I'm not sure if this is quantifiable, but it feels to me a lot of the bowl outcomes are dictated by which team is happier to be there. Hope the guys can channel their energy and take it out on the Gophers.

The outlook for the rest of the ACC looks bleak:
  • Wake Forest vs. Memphis (-2.5)
  • Boston College vs. Boise State (-3.5)
  • Duke vs. Temple (-3)
  • Virginia Tech vs. Cincinnati (-6.5)
  • Miami (-3) vs. Wisconsin
  • Virginia vs. South Carolina (-6.5)
  • Pittsburgh vs. Stanford (-6.5)
  • Syracuse vs. West Virginia (-7)
  • NC State vs. Texas A&M (-4.5)
  • Clemson (-11) vs. Notre Dame
Duke -- if it sheds that last miserable game -- should handle Temple, and VT, if the real VT shows up, will handle Cincinnati. Wake Forest should be no worse than pick 'em with Memphis. And I am anxious to see how NC State fares against A&M. It will tell us a lot about the state of their program.

Duke is in a free fall right now and Temple will probably keep the Blew Devils reeling
