[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 86400, member: 322"] Given our success last week when I started the prediction thread on Monday, rather than causing a cliffhanger by waiting till Thursday, I thought I'd give it another go. Last week [USER=304]@OldJacketFan[/USER] , [USER=443]@awbuzz[/USER] and [USER=1151]@Declinometer[/USER] were all 6 points off. This week I've got GT 31, Duke 28. Based on Atomic which has us at 32-28 (I don't see 32 points as a likely total.) [url]http://atomicfootball.com/archive/teams/tm_9.html[/url] Duke's week off will have helped them a lot - assuming the Hoof and Mouth (sic) disease wasn't that bad. Boone got beat up but should be recovered. He should be able to pass on us. 4 TDs is reasonable. Duke has a good FG kicker (7 of 7) and may opt for a few FGs ..... so I almost went with 27 for Duke.... Turnovers should be even - Duke doesn't usually beat themselves and we haven't had many either. But I think both teams have turnovers which keeps the scoring down a bit. Our offense will get yards and scores. My natural guess would be more points, but we have only averaged 35 a game this year and 27.5 against VT and Miami. So 31 is about right unless CPJ cranks up the tempo. I expect he could well do that to tire out Duke who doesn't have the depth or overall quality of starters which we have. [/QUOTE]
