Here we go again!

This evening (Thursday) marks the beginning of another wild weekend of college football.

Last Thursday Rutgers knocked off #2 South Florida 30-27. Tonight #2 is playing again; this time in the shape of undefeated Boston College (7-0, 3-0. Their opponent is #8/9 Virginia Tech (6-1,3-0) in what promises to be a real shootout battle in Blacksburg.

This will be the Eagles' first real test this season and it should be a good one going up against the Hokies and Beamer Ball.

Both teams have been idle since October 13 so they've had plenty of prep time. If the Eagles truly aspire to soar in their current lofty position, they will have to beware of the special teams.

Personally, I think both teams are over rated. Top 25 material? Sure. #2 and #8? Not really. Just a good ACC press.

Look for the Eagles to fall but it will be close. Hokies win by 5.

Kinda the way I had it figured about USF..good team but too young ..too many freshmen and sophs..next year should be better
