3-2

at Pitt - Toss up. We are by far the best team pitt has played all year. They beat a terrible UNC team by 10 and barely beat a bleh west virginia team. If this was at home I'd predict a win. I still think our chances are better than 50%.

NC State - Win. NC State is garbage.

Oregon State - Win. Really oregon state is a middle of the road G5 team.

at Wake Forest - Win. Wake lost to virginia and lousiana at home. They have no home field advantage. Could be a wilcox special but I still see a W.

Syracuse - Win. Glad this is a home game. Syracuse isn't terrible, but they are a middle of the road power 5 team. Should be a W.

Furd - Win. I don't see the furd scoring on us at home.

at Smu - Toss up. SMU is decent. I don't think spectacular. They beat a Louisville team I think is severely overrated and blew out Sonny Dykes. I think this is a decent matchup for us and they don't have much of a home field advantage.

Anything less than 8-4 is a serious disappointment given the quality of the ACC. 9-3 is doable.

3-5 last week for 32-24-1 for the year. 1-0 for my lock of the week for 5-2 for the year picking Vandy over Bama. https://cal.forums.rivals.com/threads/lets-pick-the-acc-week-6-games.33033/

Home team in Italics

Georgia Tech by 5.5 over North Carolina - Done picking North Carolina. Georgia Tech.

Clemson by 20.5 over Wake Forest - Wake Forest covers.

Louisville by 7.5 over Virginia - Two bad teams. I'll take Virginia.

ND by 23.5 over the Furd - Didn't see the virginia tech game, but maybe the Furd is just a road team?

Pitt by 3.5 over Cal - I don't agree with Rox that a blowout is coming. The line looks right. I expect another wilcox special. Cal covers.

Syracuse by 4.5 over NC State - NC State is garbage. Syracuse covers.



Non conference lock of the week: Tenn by 14.5 over Florida - Tenn rolls.

Cal’s Week 8 game and return to California Memorial Stadium will come with an afternoon kickoff as the Bears will host NC State at 12:30 p.m. PT on Oct. 19.

It will be the second daytime kickoff at home for the Bears this season after they hosted UC Davis in the sunshine back in Week 1.

The game, which will be televised by ACC Network, will mark the first ever meeting between the Bears and Wolfpack.

Cal heads to Pittsburgh this week for a matchup against the 22nd-ranked and undefeated Panthers. That matchup is also set to kick off at 12:30 p.m. PT and will be televised by ESPN.

Early underdog for a 3:30pm Eastern kickoff in Pittsburgh. They are ranked 22 in the nation and their QB has been very good so far

It’s gonna take a strong effort to get out with a W. I could see it being another stressful game for fans. Mostly interested in how the team responds to the brutal loss.
