    Virginia -3 at NC state
    Anyone have an opinion on this one, I think Virginia should be able to slow NC state and pull it out in the end.

    I'm not betting this game, but I would give a lean to Virginia giving the 3.5. This is a team that beat Connecticut and Maryland last week on the road. Virginia runs the ball well and stops the run. That's usually a good recipe for success. NC State's only wins this year are against E. Carolina and Wofford. Remember though, Virginia likes to play teams close. That's the reason I didn't scoop this one up. Might be worth a look though.

      I like Virgina here... The game will be decided by the disparity of two teams rushing offense/defense. UV is good against the run while NCST doesn't even rush for 100 yards a game. On the flip side, NCST gives up over 200 a game on the ground... That doesn't bode well for NCST... plus, they have struggled at home. One thing this does favor the Wolfpack is their turnover ratio... The are + a ton this season so far. If Virgina holds on to the ball they win and hopefully cover (another thing going for NCST betters is that in UVs last 3 wins they have one by 1 pt, 1pt and 2 pts...)

        the reason i like Virginia, is the fact that UofL beat NC st. at NC St. and covered. and everyone knows how horrible UofL's D is this year.

            this is one of those games that just looks too easy if you are thinking of taking UVA...
