Good Thursday, everyone! What a week! I got tickets to a concert I've considered nothing but a pipe dream since my Hokie career started in the Fall of 2003. Then got to tell my wife how much living my dream will be (she was VERY understanding btw). And now we get to see who the Hokies are gonna beat Friday night! It'll be either Miami or themselves. NO ONE KNOWS WHICH!

Comments
20 OK State at 23 Kansas State (KS -5.5) - I think this one just comes down to who shows up. KState will likely be looking for some revenge.
15 Louisville at 16 Notre Dame (ND -5.5) - I don't trust the domers to take care of business.
UNCheat at Dook (DU -2.5)- 70 burger lol
2 UGA at 4 Alabama (GA -1.5) - Saban retired because he was scared of this game.
19 Illinois at 9 Penn State (PA -17.5) - Can't trust a PSU staff to cover.
FSU at SMU (SM -5.5) - FSU doesn't do Dallas.
BOTW Probably picking up one of these. I've really been into their stuff recently.
I believe I picked exactly the same as you. After last week's 1-for-6, I need a big bounce back.
These first few weeks have been difficult. I haven't really had strong convictions with most of the games and the few I have felt confident about I'm probably .500 on.
BoTW for tonight's game
How many of us had SMU beating FSU in the preseason? Well I have it for Saturday.
20 OK State at 23 Kansas State (KS -5.5)
OK State's OL has been BAD
15 Louisville at 16 Notre Dame (ND -5.5)
I do not trust this pick
UNCheat at Dook (DU -2.5)
Shrug
2 UGA at 4 Alabama (GA -1.5)
UGA needs to actually try on offense
19 Illinois at 9 Penn State (PA -17.5)
Never bet James Franklin to cover
F$kU at SMU (SM -5.5)
FSU might actually be this bad

totally random
20 OK State at 23 Kansas State (KS -5.5)- Gundy is meh this year, and he's 56 years old.
15 Louisville at 16 Notre Dame (ND -5.5) ND will win, not by 5.5 though
UNCheat at Dook (DU -2.5)- Mack Brown is simply too old to rally the troops after the JMU debacle. Why isn't this game in late november? lame
2 UGA at 4 Alabama (GA -1.5)- UGA
19 Illinois at 9 Penn State (PA -17.5) 17.5 is too many points. Although if Franklin is up 16 he will kick a meaningless FG to impress the selection committee and avoid the Dayton game. So bettor beware.
F$kU at SMU (SM -5.5)- Call me crazy, but I think SMU sucks. FSU does too, but they will win this game. SMU is overrated.
