ACC Football Predictions: Games for November 5,2011
Here are The Confidential’s football predictions for games featuring two ACC teams (so as to not jinx any conference members):
Miami v Duke.
Miami has been a very difficult team to figure out. Some losses make sense, others do not. Duke is also hard to figure out. While we saw Duke performing well this year at times, who saw a close game against Virginia Tech? Upon further review, it probably says more about Virginia Tech than Duke.
Miami 24-Duke 13.
Florida St. v Boston College
Fresh off a win over equally hapless Maryland, it would be nice to predict an upset over the Seminoles. No chance. Florida State will roll.
Florida St. 38-Boston College 7*
North Carolina v North Carolina St.
I get that North Carolina State is at home. I really do. I also get that the Wolfpack are going to be emotionally charged up for this game. I just think that North Carolina is a better team. The dismantling of Wake Forest was impressive. It is this year anyway.
North Carolina 35-NC State 27
Virginia v Maryland
Maryland is just awful. I mean how bad is it when you lose to Boston College at home? Boston College was a disaster itself. This week will be a test of whether the Terps have quit on Randy Edsall. It doesn’t look good.
Virginia 24-Maryland 16
* Due to a glitch, The Confidential simply neglected to make a timely prediction of the game. There is no clairvoyance here. We cheated. All in good fun…
