Saturday is a busy day around the ACC with 14 teams in action. NC State and UNC tangle in Raleigh, Virginia Tech jets down to Miami, Clemson goes up to Beantown to take on BC, Florida State visits the Cavaliers, Georgia Tech hosts Notre Dame and Louisville will be in Winston-Salem to take the measure of the Demon Deacons.
The best rivalry game of the day is going to be UNC at NC State. At this point, we can’t see a reason to favor State. They don’t defend the inside well and UNC has definitely improved. But it is a rivalry game so we’ll have to leave it as a tossup just based on history and the fact that this is a game that would somewhat salvage State’s mostly dismal season.
