Shelby knows it sounds like a dumb question, but is the NC St v UVA a conference game this weekend? He recalls some fakakta scenario where two ACC teams couldn’t find OOC so they played each other in a noncon matchup

Had Notre Dame been selected for the CFP yet?
Starting this year they just need to be in the top 12 to get in. With that criteria they would’ve been in last year.

Also it’s no more 5 highest conference champs. The P4 champs all get auto bids and the highest ranked G6 (new PAC and reconfigured MWC starting this year)
as well.

That happened last year where an ACC intraconference game was counted as OOC. I think this one will be a conference game.

One of the pre-game talking heads said, both teams will look to keep this a low scoring game and expects it to be so. Just think, someone gets paid millions for this take as the track meet commences.

Probably cause of 2 new OCs, might have assumed some adjustment period in game 1 of the season. Still early though, some times these things can peter out too.

Dykes taking a step back from his usual type offense with the OC from UConn.

I think the new clock rules the last few years has changed some thinking for some coaches.

Damn, Rutgers played against UNC QB Billy Edwards Jr. like 4 yrs. ago. This is like his 4th school.
Did Fickell push Billy out of Wisconsin, or did Billy leave for a biggger bad. He looks decent to start. Jinx invoked.

OOF, turned out not to be such a great call by me. I blame it on the rain that started.

I think Bobby Petrino will probably improve UNC’s offense this year.

Can you guys let me know when you post predictions? I don't usually gamble, but I just opened up an account with Draft Kings.

The Coliseum was more than half empty (aside from student section) for a noon kick today (just getting ahead of the people who will be bitching Thursday lol...).
Still to this day, I just don't get the 6 pm kickoff. That's a tough one. For a lot of people that's, bring a change of clothes to the office and change in the bathroom.

Did not expect Virginia to dominate like this. NC St. is even creeping up the safeties and can't stop the run. Virginia is just pounding them, UV's Oline get's the game ball right now. I thought this would be a competitive one.

Not even tuning into the USC blood bath.
