BC is gonna run all over VTs soft defense. I can’t imagine our game being anything but a shootout.

UNC is not likely to win, but we will need a bunch of points to outscore them.

I love it when Tech fans say being 4-point favorites against ANY FBS team “seems like easy money.” The outcome always depends upon which Tech shows up - good Tech or bad Tech.

I watched the first half of unc vs. uva (before i fell asleep lol). I was actually suprised by unc, they don’t look like a gimmie win at all to me, we better show up ready to fight and play hard to the end. Also uva’s qb looks like big trouble for us.

There are NO gimmie wins left on our schedule. If we don't execute and/or turn the ball over, we will lose.

North Carolina is by far the worst FBS team on GT's 2018 schedule and the Jackets will have a rather comfortable win.

I think it's mostly riding on the turnover battle. We end up positive in turnovers, and we win big. Even on turnovers, and it's a close game. Behind, and it'll be a long trip home. Special teams are also a big deal.
I think Duke will give Miami a game. Pitt is getting no respect at all on that line.

I think all our remaining games will be close ones.
But I thought the VT game would be settled by a field goal. Maybe I'll be wrong again! That'd be awesome.

Well, UNC is the weakest team REMAINING on our schedule. And except for Western Carolina, we're the weakest team remaining on UNC's schedule.
They're the last game we're favored for. We have about a 50/50% shot at bowl eligibility with 4 games remaining.

Mike,
You don't remember Lville?
At least unc can score and then all we have to do is have TOs a couple of times.--hmmm

I am never optimistic about a GT game, but I am about this one. With the exception of last year we are almost always able to score on UNC, we just had the $750,000 cardboard cutout known as Ted Roof helming our D for so long which made it a game. With a decent Defense like this year we should be fine regardless of who starts.

I am pretty surprised. The GT/VT line was 59 and UNC's defense isn't supposed to be much better. With a spread of -4 they are expecting 32-28. I feel like we score more, and they potentially score less.

Our D isn't that good. Almost any D is good enough if we score every drive.
