    I fear that the Jayhawk win streak might be in peril.

    Not often that Tech is a home dog ... woof. But after last week's dismal showing against GT, I understand.

    I think UVa gets tripped up this week.

    Bet every thing you own on Oklahoma.
    I'm a Tech fan, and even i'm going to.
    This has 56-35 written on it.

    This Pitt team is bipolar. UVA by 17.

    So it's a Pitt team?

    Pretty much.

    Get shit kicked by Penn State, beat Georgia Tech.

    Lose to dog-assed North Carolina (agaaaaain) and beat up-and-coming Syracuse.

    Get shit kicked by UCF on the road and lead Notre Dame for 50 minutes three weeks later.

    This team could finish 8-4 or 4-8 and neither would shock me.

    Michigan is rested and Penn State isn't all that. I'd lay 10.

    Like Iowa in a bounce-back spot at Purdue.

    Louisville is a "take the points and pray" special. Maybe a little bit of a sandwich spot for Clemson before going to BC.

    I think UVa's defense gives them a shot to win out and maybe even keep it close against Clemson.

    But I think Perkins might be due for a three or four-turnover game at some point. He makes some risky throws and as much as he runs the ball he's bound to have some fumbles. And given that it's UVa, it will probably happen at Virginia Tech in a game it loses like 6-3.

    That is an INSANELY high number for the Wahoos against good opposition. They haven't played well against Pitt since Muffin Curry was shutting down Larry Fitzgerald in the Continental Tire Bowl, although this team appears to be the best UVA team in some time.

    Hoos are still at a significant talent disadvantage and will remain that way the rest of the year except against Online Jesus U next week. Then again, they've got less talent than Miami, Duke and UNC, too. I trust Bronco these days!

    Online Jesus U has a couple of stud receivers and a really good quarterback. I'd underestimate at your own peril.

    Hardass Al Groh and his crewneck kicked Wannstedt's ass 48-14 at Michael Scott Stadium in 2007. Mustache Face opened the game with an onsides kick which failed miserably and sent me into a 10-minute screaming fit in section 513 of Mike Scott Stadium. UVA went up 7-0 in like five plays. It was 28-0 by the end of the first quarter.
