Va Tech - BC has struggled against defenses that can't even be mentioned in the same breath as VT. Yes the Hoakies Offense is lackluster, but I think they find a way to pull it out.

UNC - Yeah i said it

Maryland - I definitely think Clemson is a better team, but I think Maryland pulls out a close one here

UVA - easy pick, but I still don't think they are legit as they have played nobody

FSU - if we lose this one I won't know what to do fellas

Looks like we have some contradicting picks this week Chief. How much we puttin on this?

You don't know how tempted I was to pick VT...but the numbers just lean so heavily in favor of BC. I'll probably lose that one.

As for the other 2 disagreements...I feel pretty confident.

How bout a wager that you'll join fsurules without anymore excuses if I win...and if you win...I'll quit bugging you about it every other moment (but you still have to join!). HA!

and we have a bet.

however, if i win i would like you to go to the valdosta outlets on a saturday wearing a shirt that says "Weatherford for Heisman"

"Weatherford for Heisman" aye? Haha. However, rather than wearing it around Valdosta, I think wearing it to the Maryland game would be much more eyecatching.

true that.....i was just trying to throw my georgia geographical knowledge around.

at the UMD game, the shirt would need to be "Will Maryland ever beat the Noles"

haha

I was actually quite impressed with your knowledge...but let me add that they are the Lakepark Outlets (which though it is in Lowndes county and Valdosta is the nearest "city", is in Lakepark, GA. Haha

I can handle looking like a dumb*ss with the Heisman shirt, but I can't look like I'm a first day fan with the "Will Maryland Ever Win" shirt. Haha

well for people traveling through on I-75, they are the Valdosta outlets damnit. what you know about Tifton? The number 1 hotels city in the country or some BS? haha, more like the number 1 MOTEL city

Tifton sucks. #1 motel city? HAHAHAHAHA

They did win some reading award a few years ago though that they posted all these billboards up and down the interstate about. Gotta have something to be happy about I guess.

i take a vacation to tifton 5 times per year thank u very much :)

I'm sorry to hear that DC. Hahaha. My mom lives about 20 miles from Tifton and that's where I do all my deer hunting is on the farm where she lives

will you cook me up some bbq deer meat if i come down? that **** is slammin!

Deer meat is awesome...but wild hog is the best! Dayum it's good!

hook me up with some of that as well please!

I'd love to...I just have to get another wild hog first. I have 5 or so packages of wild hog sausage left in the freezer and then I'm out. Need to remedy that for sure.

So what draws you to Tifton that often?

haha did u honestly think i vacationed there? man, this was a rough day at work for u huh?

the only reason i have stayed there ever is valdosta is a halfway point between driving from south florida to knoxville, and mom liked to stay in tifton cuz the hotels are clean and such. on top of that, ive made that drive 20 times by myself probably (either orlando or ft. lauderdale)

i would drive straight through tho. 15 hours by yourself in a car is garbage right? i love to drive though.

we have butchered this prediction post! maybe you should start another 1 that says "REAL week 9 predictions"

Hmmmm, Deer Sausage on the BBQ, Some Corn on the Cob, a flat of beer....damm that's a good time waiting to happen.

Oh ya picks.....sorry..lol. VT's defense will keep it close for a while, but in the end they will tire out and BC rolls !!!
Wake Forest needs to beat UNC, that would be a stinger !!!
I'm with DC...I like Maryland at home against Clemson. Clemson will be overconfident, Maryland needs a quality win badly !!!
After winning last week....I think NC State will do it again !!! Sorry UVA but nobody, probably not even yourselves think your for real. The Cavs are ripe for the upset.
Finally...FSU to win a nail bitter !!! Shirley we can't lose at home to Duke right ???

I know, I know....quit calling you Shirley.
