God, I hope some of your scores are right. I think we're due for a letdown game.

9/29/2010 8:15:33 AM

so is VT, oh wait...

after watching them against BC, and that run defense, and all the underneath passing lanes, i still don't see how they stop us. As far as stopping them, their OL, the most important piece of any Offense, is just out of sorts right now. Honestly, VT looks alot like Cincy with a slightly more mobile QB but who is less of a passing threat than Collaros.

^ +1

9/29/2010 9:21:11 AM

^^a worse passer than Cincy had, a worse runner than GT had.

I wouldn't call it a letdown game unless we lost BIG. I'm hopeful but not overly optimistic about this one. I'm thinking the spread isn't any more than 10, but we've had 20 of our 45 users go for more than that.

9/29/2010 9:35:28 AM

agreed, TT could never hit those seam routes (like Collaros did) if his life depended on it, and while "fast", he doesn't have the combination of speed/power someone like Nesbitt has.

^usually mine too. i'm renouncing my superstitious ways and currently have a lunch bet with a co-worker. i have NCSU +3

9/29/2010 2:28:37 PM

Heather Dinich has given her prediction:

NCSU 28, VT 21

(she is completely on our bandwagon and i don't know how to feel about that)


I don't think any predictions of VT scoring only touchdowns will be right...as bad as they have been in the red zone, there is going to be at least one kick.

^ you know where she really excels? (not saying alot, but) she's pretty good in those chat sessions. She has quite the zingers and handles wild-eyed fan speculation pretty well.

9/30/2010 11:25:31 AM

Reminder: all selections must be in at least one hour prior to kickoff.

I'll update scores when I get back to town Sunday night.

Go State!

*note: I decided to add the +/- for the spread as well

Most points of this week were gained from the NCSU score. This shouldn't be a surprise considering how our group average estimate was only off by 1.4.

"BC - 72 NCSU - 4"

I am not putting in ridiculous calls like this. I'm trying to keep track of how good we are as a group statistically.


ATTN pack_bryan: you put in 2 different predictions...which is it? I'm only taking the first unless you clarify otherwise.

10/4/2010 6:50:57 PM

@bdmazur: suggestion. might not hurt to have a separate thread for each game's predictions. just trying to make it easy on you, unless of course you are doing just fine and then i will stfu

10/4/2010 7:10:21 PM

i think people would get annoyed with having a new thread each week...i'm doing fine keeping track of it, it really depends on how everyone else feels about it. plus i want this to be a season-long project, and keeping it in one thread will help track the trends.

^going to make the Vegas one 28-18 since the spread is more important than the combined score.
