Due_Connection179 9 Last Week #14 vs Syracuse ( Won 40 - 7 )


It was a perfect storm for UNC to jump up to #9 in my poll. They dominated a good-not-great Syracuse team from start-to-finish, USC struggled again vs a bottom-tier PAC-12 team, and four other teams lost ahead of them. Mario ruined the hype of next week's game against my Miami squad, but looking at their schedule it is very possible that we are looking up at a top 5 UNC team who is 9 - 0 going into the back-to-back games of vs Duke and at Clemson in mid-November.


Next Week vs Miami ( 3.5 pt favorites ) Prediction - wins and covers the spread

T-Thugs 12 North Carolina is undefeated but the teams they've beaten have slipped in records, so they're here with Washington and Michigan as undefeated teams without high quality wins. Best win is probably Syracuse (4-2)

Aggravating-Steak-69 9 QB Drake Male threw for over 440 yards and tacked on 3 touchdowns in a 33 point victory which never looked in doubt. The Tar Heels are 5-0 and jump into the top 10 this week.

bryophyta_insolitam 9 W 40-7 vs. Syracuse
CallingUagoatUgoat 9 T-8. 0 SP+ T-10 wins. 0 SP+ T-25 wins. The previous week's SP+ rankings decide ties (I'm going to change this for the 2024 season - it doesn't make much sense to ignore the most recent game here. I'm going to roll with it for now because, for the time being, it doesn't make much of a difference.)

throwaway_6786 10 That was a really impressive win over 4-2 Syracuse and considering that they've dominated everyone except App State so far, I'm willing to put UNC at #10 (though it is a very shaky #10). An interesting test against the Hurricanes awaits.

PerfectZeroKnowledge 11 I didn't really trust them before, but the Syracuse blowout was good enough to restore a lot of that.
Prof_Pie 11 Inconsistent is the word I'd use. I could excuse the home opener but Pittsburg saw the endzone too many times. I'm not sure the team has the stamina to enter AND maintain a top 10 spot at this point, which keeps them just outside the gates for me.
