Week Two: Southern Specifics

Well, football is back in full force! I’m still recovering from the Clemson gut-punch last week, though I called the problems perfectly in my Week One post. This week, I want to switch up things! We’ll be taking a focus off some of the larger games and focusing more on games closer to the peach state.

MY TOP CALL EXPLANATION

Kennesaw State @ Georgia Tech

Georgia Tech: (-19)

Kennesaw State is a great team as far as the Big South, but I don’t think their offensive line is mature enough to handle Georgia Tech’s defensive threats, even if the team is sub-par regarding ACC play. Kennesaw State’s previous linebacker coach sits as Georgia Tech’s current defensive coordinator, making things sticky for the Owls… especially since Kennesaw’s defense hasn’t switched their core D scheme since he left. Georgia Tech is fighting to not be embarrassed, and they have a beautiful day to draw up some passes. Georgia Tech is expected to outscore, out maneuver, and out dance Kennesaw. I’ll be attending this game.
