Preview: Virginia at North Carolina State
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

North Carolina State’s high-flying passing offense, led by senior quarterback Ryan Finley, will get a major test Saturday afternoon when the Wolfpack host Virginia in a crossroads ACC contest. Finley has thrown for more than 1,000 yards and five touchdowns in three games to lead an air attack that ranks fourth in the nation, while the Cavaliers have allowed just 183.8 passing yards per game.

“He’s poised, he’s accurate, and he’s reflective of a player with experience,” Virginia coach Bronco Mendenhall told reporters of Finley. “He’s seen about everything you can throw at him because of how much (N.C. State) throws the football, so ultimately it will come down to making plays.” The Cavaliers limited Louisville to 148 passing yards and 214 overall while forcing three turnovers in the impressive 27-3 victory last weekend to open the ACC season and look to win their first road game after falling at Indiana 20-16 on Sept. 8. The Wolfpack have won three straight to start the season for the first time since 2015, including last weekend’s 37-20 triumph against Marshall that followed the cancellation of the game against West Virginia due to Hurricane Florence. “I think we’ve handled our business,” N.C. State coach Dave Doeren told reporters. “That’s all you can do.”

TV: 12:20 p.m. ET, ACC Network. LINE: N.C. State -5.5

ABOUT VIRGINIA (3-1, 1-0 ACC): Senior Jordan Ellis posted productive numbers in the first four games, averaging 112 yards and scoring five times on the ground, while junior quarterback Bryce Perkins has done it with his arm and his legs with nine TDS through the air and three rushing. Senior Olamide Zaccheaus is the top target for Perkins (1,184 yards total offense, 65.7 completion percentage), gaining 392 yards on 24 catches with four touchdowns, and junior Hasise Dubois has hauled in 16 passes for another 180 yards along with two scores. Senior linebacker Chris Peace boasts 19 tackles - a team-best 5.5 for loss - and the Cavaliers have outscored their opponents 28-3 in the fourth quarter.

ABOUT NORTH CAROLINA STATE (3-0, 0-0): Finley, who started his college career at Boise State, has completed 68.6 percent of his passes in the first three games and tossed just one interception after throwing for 3,000 yards in each of the previous two seasons. Junior Kelvin Harmon leads the receiving corps with 18 receptions for 312 yards - including at least 100 in the last two games - while senior Reggie Gallaspy II is the biggest threat on the ground with 173 yards and four touchdowns. Senior linebacker Germaine Pratt (30 tackles, one sack) and junior safety Jarius Morehead (22 tackles, one interception for a TD) lead a defense that is allowing 13.3 points per game.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Finley is 74 away from becoming the fourth N.C. State quarterback to record 8,000 yards of total offense.

2. Cavaliers LB Jordan Mack (undisclosed) will miss the next six weeks and DE Richard Burney (medical condition) is out for the season.

3. The Wolfpack lead the all-time series 34-22-1, but the teams have not met since 2012 when Virginia won 33-6.

PREDICTION: Virginia 24, N.C. State 21

Preview: Cincinnati at Connecticut
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

Cincinnati will try to match its best start since 2012 when the Bearcats travel to Connecticut for their American Athletic Conference opener on Saturday. Cincinnati already matched its win total from last season with a 34-30 win against visiting Ohio on Saturday, rallying from an early 21-0 deficit to post its eighth fourth-quarter comeback victory in the past 10 years.

The Bearcats will need to play with more discipline than they did last week, when they accumulated 14 penalties for 150 yards, the most flags since 2002. One trend they'd like to continue is their success on the ground, where they've rushed for at least 150 yards in all four wins this season. Connecticut hasn't done much to keep its opponents out of the end zone, surrendering at least 49 points in all four games. The Huskies are giving up an average of 664 total yards per game, last among all 129 FBS schools.

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS Sports Network. LINE: Cincinnati -17

ABOUT CINCINNATI (4-0, 0-0 AAC): Connecticut is also allowing an average of 309 rushing yards per game, second-most in the FBS. That weakness should open the door for another big game by Cincinnati running back Michael Warren II, who has eight rushing touchdowns this season, tied for second-most in the FBS. Desmond Ridder, the freshman quarterback for the Bearcats, can also do damage with his legs, but he's been even more effective with his arm, passing for six touchdowns in the past three games with just one interception.

ABOUT CONNECTICUT (1-3, 0-1): The Huskies likely remember the season-ending one-point loss to Cincinnati last November, which came after Connecticut missed a PAT with no time left. David Pindell passed for 272 yards and a touchdown in the loss and ran for another 95 yards and a score, both season highs, but the senior is trying to hold off a push from redshirt freshman Marvin Washington for more playing time this season. Washington entered the game in the fourth quarter against Syracuse on Saturday and threw a touchdown pass to cut the deficit to 20 points before the Orange pulled away for the 51-21 victory.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Cincinnati has scored a touchdown on 14 of 15 trips to the red zone this season and kicked a field on the other.

2. The Bearcats received 22 votes in the coaches' poll this week, the first time they've received votes since the 2014 season.

3. Connecticut DT Darrian Beavers, a Cincinnati native, is expected to move into a starting role this week after recording the Huskies' lone sack last week against Syracuse.

Preview: Old Dominion at East Carolina
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

There is no chance that East Carolina will look past visiting Old Dominion on Saturday when the teams meet for a non-conference game. The Pirates will try to get their season back in order against the Monarchs, who posted the upset of the year in college football last week.

East Carolina has had a disjointed season, including having its season opener postponed by a day, a loss to an FCS school, a blowout victory over North Carolina and a cancelled game with No. 24 Virginia Tech -- the same team the previously winless Monarchs knocked off. Scottie Montgomery's team is coming off a 20-13 loss to South Florida in American Athletic Conference play in which the Pirates had a sizable advantage in time of possession and yardage yet couldn't make the big play when needed. "We got to play better. We also got to understand that when we play against the top teams in our conference, it's going to come down to one or two plays and we have to execute them," Montgomery told the media. "We know the challenge ahead of us." Blake LaRussa was the star in the 49-35 victory over Virginia Tech as the junior came off the bench to throw for 495 yards and four touchdowns for the Monarchs of Conference USA, who were beaten 38-0 by the Hokies last season on the road.

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN3. LINE: East Carolina -7

ABOUT OLD DOMINION (1-3): Jonathan Duhart has long been a productive player for the Monarchs, including posting a combined 95 catches and 1,371 yards in 2015 and 2016, but he has taken his game to a new level in his fifth and final season at the Norfolk, Va. school. After recording a career-high nine catches for 142 yards and three touchdowns against Virginia Tech, the 6-3, 210-pound native of Midlothian, Va., has three straight 100-yard games and is tied for third in the FBS in receiving touchdowns and fourth in receiving yards. Not to be forgotten is Travis Fulgham, who came up with career-highs in catches (nine) and yards (188), and running back Jeremy Cox, who managed his fifth career 100-yard game against the Hokies

ABOUT EAST CAROLINA (1-2): The Pirates may have to scale back their passing attack if quarterback Reid Herring, who injured an ankle against South Florida and missed practice Tuesday, is not able to go. Herring has thrown 77 of 79 completions for 852 of the team's 860 yards this season, would need to practice Wednesday in order to play Saturday according to Montgomery. Freshman Holton Ahlers is more of a running quarterback, having amassed 84 yards and three touchdowns on the ground, and freshman Kingsley Ifedi has attempted one pass this season for the Pirates.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Barring the Virginia Tech game being rescheduled, Trevon Brown needs 754 yards in eight games to add to East Carolina's streak of six straight seasons with a 1,000-yard receiver, the best in the FBS.

2. The Pirates set school records in pass completions (46) and passing yards (447) that have since been broken in a 52-38 victory over the Monarchs in the lone prior meeting in 2013.

3. East Carolina has posted an 11-22 conference mark in its five seasons in the AAC after going 78-50 during its 17 seasons in Conference USA.

Preview: Tennessee at Georgia
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

Third-ranked Georgia returns home to host Tennessee on Saturday as an overwhelming favorite - which is not surprising since it is averaging 44.5 points while allowing just 13.2 per contest en route to a 4-0 start, but that does not mean coach Kirby Smart is satisfied. The Bulldogs played arguably their worst game of the season last week, a 43-29 victory at Missouri after which Smart bemoaned several areas where he felt his team should have played better.

“We didn’t play the run game real well last week, and that’s what we pride ourselves on,” Smart told reporters on Monday. “We have to do a better job of attacking the run and playing the run.” The Volunteers opened SEC play with a thud last week, committing six turnovers en route to a 47-21 home loss to Florida. “In this job, we are judged by wins and losses, and we’re 2-2,” Tennessee coach Jeremy Pruitt told reporters on Wednesday. “When you look back at where we were, we are much better off.” The Volunteers now open a difficult stretch of three consecutive games against ranked teams - Georgia, No. 10 Auburn and No. 1 Alabama.

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS. LINE: Georgia -31 ½

ABOUT TENNESSEE (2-2, 0-1 SEC): The Volunteers did not turn over the ball in their first two games but have committed eight miscues in their last two contests. Quarterback Jarrett Guarantano likely will play Saturday after being knocked out of last week’s game twice, completing just 7-of-18 passes for 164 yards with two interceptions and a lost fumble. Cornerback Baylen Buchanan tied for the team lead with five tackles and played well in pass coverage, but Tennessee as a unit gave up three passing touchdowns and three rushing scores.

ABOUT GEORGIA (4-0, 2-0): The Bulldogs gave up a season-high 172 rushing yards against Missouri, had a field goal blocked and were penalized seven times for 66 yards. Quarterback Jake Fromm passed for 260 yards and three touchdowns, while Elijah Holyfield and D’Andre Swift combined for 161 yards on the ground. Linebacker D’Andre Walker continued his strong season last week, forcing two fumbles while finishing with four tackles and two sacks.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Georgia G Ben Cleveland is out indefinitely after suffering a fractured left fibula in the second half of last week's contest.

2. The Volunteers have lost their last 10 games against Power Five opponents.

3. Tennessee leads the all-time series 23-22-2, including an 11-11-1 record at Georgia.

Preview: Florida State at Louisville
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

Two once-proud programs looking for their first conference win of the season meet on Saturday afternoon as Florida State visits Louisville. The Seminoles are 0-2 in ACC play with losses to Virginia Tech and Syracuse, while the Cardinals lost their conference opener to Virginia last weekend.

Florida State is coming off a victory as it was able to even its overall record at 2-2 with a 37-19 home win over Northern Illinois, as quarterback Deondre Francois threw for a season-high 352 yards. It was coach Willie Taggart’s first win over an FBS opponent at Florida State, as his other win came over FCS Samford. Louisville’s offensive struggles continued last week as it managed just 214 total yards and turned the ball over three times in a 27-3 loss at Virginia. "I thought our defense played hard, did some good things, but the offense didn't do (its) part," coach Bobby Petrino told reporters after the game.

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN2. LINE: Florida State -6.5.

ABOUT FLORIDA STATE (2-2, 0-2 ACC): The offense finally showed some signs of life with the 37-point performance after managing just 10 combined points in the Seminoles’ two FBS losses. Francois delivered his best game since 2016 and showed a nice connection with receivers Keith Gavin and Nyqwan Murray, who combined for 11 catches and 178 yards. But there is still plenty of reason for concern as the offense turned the ball over four times and rushed for 121 yards on 2.1 yards per carry.

ABOUT LOUISVILLE (2-2, 0-1): The quarterback carousel continues for the Cardinals as redshirt freshman Malik Cunningham, who was making his first start of the season, went 6-of-9 for 35 yards and an interception before being replaced in the second half by opening day starter Jawon Pass (10-of-19, 113 yards, one interception). Petrino has yet to name a starter against Florida State, telling reporters he needed to evaluate game film before making a decision, but neither has been a good option to this point. The lack of a passing game has taken its toll on the running game as well, as Louisville’s top two running backs, Dae Williams and Jeremy Smith, have just 71 and 63 total yards on the season, respectively.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Florida State held Northern Illinois to six rushing yards last week.

2. Louisville has won four in a row at Cardinal Stadium and is 12-4 at home since joining the ACC in 2014.

3. The two teams have played in each of the last four years and the series is even at 2-2, although Louisville has won in each of the last two seasons.

Preview: Pittsburgh at Central Florida
Gracenote
Sep 26, 2018

Central Florida’s high-octane offense looks to continue its impressive production in the last game before American Athletic Conference play when ACC member Pittsburgh pays a visit on Saturday afternoon. The 14th-ranked Knights averaged 50 points in their first three games while extending a nation-best winning streak to 16, and face the only Power Five conference team left on the schedule.

“They’re thick, strong and physical up front,” UCF coach Josh Heupel told reporters of Pitt. “Extremely big. The biggest defensive front we’ve seen so far. On the backend, they’re going to contest things. They’ll load it up and make it difficult to run the football.” The Knights had their contest with North Carolina - the only other game against a Power Five team on the original schedule - cancelled due to Hurricane Florence, which makes this game even more important, while the Panthers need a boost after a tough conference loss. Pittsburgh won its ACC opener against Georgia Tech 24-19 before suffering a 38-35 loss at North Carolina last weekend, a game in which the Panthers allowed 313 yards through the air, and will face a UCF team that averages 304 yards passing. Pittsburgh coach Pat Narduzzi told reporters his team will have to be alert with how quickly the Knights work on offense: "These guys," Narduzzi said, "they limit you to really doing much pressure-wise because you don't have time to even communicate."

TV: 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPNU. LINE: UCF -13.5

ABOUT PITTSBURGH (2-2): The Panthers are led by two senior running backs in Qadree Ollison (355 yards, four TDs) and Darrin Hall (163, two TDs) while sophomore quarterback Kenny Pickett has not produced much through the air. Pickett has thrown for 145 yards per game with four scores and three interceptions while sophomore Taysir Mack (10 catches, 224 yards) and senior Rafael Araujo-Lopes (11, 103, two TDs) are the top two targets. Senior linebacker Quintin Wirginis tops the Panthers with 28 tackles and two sacks for the Panthers, who gave up 36 points per game over the last three outings and almost 400 yards per contest overall.

ABOUT CENTRAL FLORIDA (3-0): Junior quarterback McKenzie Milton rebounded with a strong effort (306 yards passing, three TDs) in the 56-36 win over Florida Atlantic last week after throwing three interceptions in the previous contest. Milton boasts 895 yards passing with nine scoring strikes - three to sophomore Gabriel Davis (20 catches, 242 yards) - and has rushed for three TDs along with 147 yards, second only to junior Adrian Killins Jr. (193, three TDs). The Knights have forced nine turnovers, including seven interceptions, while led by sophomore defensive back Richie Grant and senior linebacker Pat Jasinski with 26 tackles each.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Milton has 56 touchdown passes, tied with Blake Bortles for fourth in school history, and needs 85 yards for 7,000 passing.

2. Pittsburgh, which won the only other meeting 52-7 in 2006, is 5-1 playing road games in the state of Florida since 2008.

3. UCF’s offensive line has allowed just one sack and leads the country with 1.67 tackles for loss against per contest.

PREDICTION: Central Florida 38, Pittsburgh 21
