College Football Pick for Thursday, October 11th
NCAA Thursday Night Football: (21) Florida State at Wake Forest
Ask anyone who is an avid watching of college football and they will tell you that predicting the outcome of games this year is nearly impossible. Take for example, last week USC lost to 41-point underdog Stanford, at home. And, that is just the tip of the iceberg. Another game that is almost too close to call kicks off the college football week. It pits the 21st ranked Florida State Seminoles (4-1, 1-1 ACC) against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (3-2, 2-1 ACC).
After playing both Boston College and Nebraska tough, but ended up on the wrong side of the game, the Demon Deacons have responded with three straight wins. Those wins have come up against improved, but not elite football schools in Army, Maryland, and Duke. Every game Wake Forest has played in has been close. For the season they are averaging 27.6 points per game and giving up 25.6, showing you how tight their match ups have been. In their last outing they out lasted Duke by the score of 41-36, in Durham, home of the Blue Devils. While the Dukies are only 1-5 this year, they have also played all their opponents tough, but obviously have fallen short a few more times then their opponents. The Demon Deacons rely on a steady offensive approach, which likes to share the ball. No one player has outstanding numbers this year, but a bunch have respectable numbers. Quarterback Riley Skinner has only thrown two touchdowns this year, but also doesn’t make very many mistakes. Running backs Kenneth Moore and Josh Adams have both ran for about 250 yards each and have combined for five scores.
After losing to Clemson, in Clemson opening night, the Seminoles are on a four game winning streak. Last week was one of their better all around performances, beating NC State 27-10. Since giving up 24 points in each of their first two games they have only allowed 28 in the next three. Receiver Greg Carr has led the offense, catching 17 balls for 400 yards and two trips to the end zone. Florida State has used two quarterbacks this year, Drew Weatherford and Xavier Lee. Lee started last week’s game against NC State, and looks like he may keep the job. On the year he’s thrown for 431 yards on three touchdowns and one interception. He is also a threat on the ground, running for a score.
With the way this season is going you might be better off flipping a coin. Just kidding, I think. I think Florida State has enough on the defensive side of the field to put a halt to Wake Forest’s offense. It’s good for the Deacons that they have home field advantage, but that hasn’t proven to be a huge advantage this year. Ask the Trojans. I like Florida State in this one 24 to 13.
College Football Pick for Saturday, October 13th
NCAA Game of the Week: (17) Kentucky at (1) LSU
It seems like every week the game of the week features a SEC team or two. As you can see this week is no different, as this league continues to feature the best talent in the country. With LSU now being the overwhelming number one team in the country with the ungraceful fall of USC, the Tigers now have a chance to solidify themselves even more as the team to beat.
The Kentucky Wildcats (5-1, 1-1 SEC) are coming off their first loss of the season due to turnovers against the South Carolina Gamecocks, also a very tough SEC team. Before the defeat, Wildcats quarterback Andre’ Woodson was a dark horse candidate for the Heisman Trophy. Woodson has thrown for 18 touchdowns on just two interceptions. He has also completed over 65 percent of his pass attempts. There running backs, Rafael Little and Tony Dixon are both averaging well over six yards a carry and have scored three times apiece. As a team they are averaging 42.7 points a game.
LSU was able to pull out a late victory against the Florida Gators, giving them redemption for their loss to them last year. With the Gators now losing twice in a row it seems that their will be a new champion this year, and the Tigers wouldn’t mind filling that role. The 24 points LSU gave up this past week was the first time this year they had allowed more than 16 points in a game. Jacob Hester has been a large chunk of the offense, running for 433 yards this year, five yards a carry, and scoring five rushing touchdowns. Hester’s back-up, Keiland Williams would most likely be starting on any other team in the nation. He to has scored five touchdowns, and is averaging seven yards per carry. He is a great change of pace back when the team is looking for a momentum burst. Demetrius Byrd has also been a blessing on special teams, returning two kicks all the way to the house. Matt Flynn and Ryan Perrilloux have both shared time behind center, combining for ten touchdowns and four interceptions. As of late Ryan Perrilloux has been getting most of the snaps.
If Kentucky is back to normal and LSU is a step slower on defense as they appeared last Saturday this could be a ball game. However, Kentucky also doesn’t appear to have the firepower the Gators have, so the chore of defending them will probably be easier. I expect LSU to rebound well in this one and win this one by ten or more points in a high scoring affair. Something like 34-24.
