I don't have a good feeling about NC State.  I think NC State is a pretty good team.  They have a balanced offense with a pretty good running back in Dayes, and a good defense.  VA Tech got a lot of publicity for leading the ACC in total defense going into our game, but in scoring defense NC State is right there with them.  We can beat them at home, but it's going to be tough.

A lot of people are writing off Pitt, but I think they are the most winnable game after BC.  Pitt is scoring a lot of points, mostly on the ground, but their defense is giving up 432 yards per game (#79) and 329 passing yards per game (#125).  And their schedule hasn't included FSU, Louisville, or Clemson...but it did include Georgia Tech, who only attempted 10 passes against Pitt.  If you exclude that game, Pitt is allowing 370 yards per game through the air.  Pitt has the worst passing defense of any FBS team we will play this year.  By a lot.  Wish we had them at home this year.

I would say our most winnable games, in increasing order of difficulty, are:

BC
Pitt
.
NC State

FSU
