Miami @ Georgia Tech

Georgia Tech -4.5
Georgia Tech can take control of the ACC Coastal Division with a win today against Miami. The ‘Canes survived last week but still face the same issues they have all year. Forget the controversy around their behavior, the ‘Canes really aren’t that good. Coach Larry Coker has lost this team and when the year is over he will lose his job. Miami has become a collection of individuals doing individual things.

In addition, Georgia Tech’s Calvin Johnson will be able to make plays down the field. The biggest question to The Dean in regards to Tech is whether or not Reggie Ball is able to make the plays he needs to make. The Yellow Jackets will not let this one get away which is why they are a 5-star pick. Take Georgia Tech and give the points.

As previewed.

Wake Forest @ North Carolina

Wake Forest -8.5
Wake Forest was a whipping boy early this year for The Dean, and they proved this guy wrong each time. The Demon Deacons are on one helluva run this season and find themselves primed to do a lot of un-WF like things. For instance, WF is in position to capture their first Conference title in 53 years. More immediately, they can win the annual battle of the four North Carolina ACC teams.

Wake’s only loss was to a good Clemson team and Wake had complete control until a botched
FG turned the game around. The Dean feels Wake is just as good as they have shown to be, which is a 6-1 football team. Today this 6-1 football team is only being asked to give 8.5 points to a 1-6 football team. Lay the points, take the Deacons and make it 4-stars.

REVIEW: Wake Forest 24 – North Carolina 17

Wake continues to win.

Florida State @ Maryland

Florida St -3.5
This match up intrigues The Dean due to how underwhelming both these teams are and the fact that FSU is giving points on the road. What does that tell you about Vegas’ feelings on the Terps? As much as FSU has dropped in recent years, they are not the worst team in their Division and The Dean is of the belief that Maryland is. The ship will right itself today, but the lack of confidence in FSU keeps this play conservative. Give the points, take the Seminoles and make it worth 3-stars.

REVIEW: Florida St. 24 – Maryland 27

Florida St. is the worst team in the ACC Atlantic
