Hey Charlotte, Here We Come – Week Nine Of ACC Nation Pigskin Picks

Football
ACC Nation Staff @accnation –

You can read a lot into our headline. One, we are obviously talking about getting closer to having two teams, one from each division locking down a spot for the ACC Championship. Two, we may also be talking about the potential move of the conference headquarters from Greensboro. So when you see or hear, ‘Hey Charlotte, Here We Come’ you can decide which of the two, at that moment, best applies. For this week’s ACC Nation Pigskin Picks we think the first choice is best. Wake Forest is as close to a lock as you can get without it being declared and Pitt seems to be edging closer. Just don’t let Miami, North Carolina or Virginia catch you saying it. They still have some say in this matter. Honestly, so do NC State, Clemson and Boston College when it comes to Wake so let’s just enjoy the ride.

Are there any outliers that we should take a closer look at this week?

Let’s start with Miami vs Pitt where only one of our prognosticators thinks there will be a repeat of last week’s upset for Miami. Mike Lewis thinks there’s too much uncertainty in a Pat Narduzzi team to keep the faith. We’ve always talked about how the Panthers are a roller-coaster team. Will lightning strike twice for the Canes?

Dave Wolpert is taking the Hokies as they face off with Georgia Tech in Atlanta. The spread may point to his choice being the right one but only time will tell.

Chris Bond is finding some renewed faith in the Seminoles and along with Mike Lewis the two have gone out on a limb in picking Florida State over Clemson.

A solid pick across the board in favor of Wake Forest against Duke. The Deacs just keep notching wins.

Mike Lewis and Jim Quist are going with Louisville as the Cardinals road trip it to Raleigh to take on the Pack. Some key losses of personnel may be the reason.

It’s almost a split group when it comes to North Carolina and Notre Dame. Xayveon, Jim Bresnahan and Mike Lewis stick with the ACC team in this matchup. If the Tar Heels keep it close look for a 4th quarter flurry by Sam Howell to close down the Irish.

Will Ojanen, Xayveon and Jim Bresnahan all think BYU has a little more in the tank than the Wahoos. The rest of the crew believe that Virginia can win by cranking out the points early and often.
