This could be the most intriguing match up of the weekend. How it was left off the picks is beyond me. We have two 1-9 teams playing with one team coming away with its second victory of the season and the other moving into double digits on the loss column. Each of these teams is win less at home this year. They are both worst than 100th in the country in total yards, rushing yards, and points scored. However each team does manage to creep into the top 100 in passing yards with Notre Dame being #99 and Duke being #56. Duke leads Notre Dame in each of the statistics except rushing yards where Notre Dame holds a slight advantage averaging 56.6 yards a game compared to Duke's 52.9 yards a game. Finally Duke has Eron Riley of Savannah, Georgia who leads Duke in receiving with 756 yards on 35 catches including 9 touchdowns. Riley was also named ACC player of the week for his performance against Navy where he racked up 235 yards receiving with 4 touchdowns. Navy beat Notre Dame and Duke by a combined 5 points with Notre Dame losing by two in triple overtime. Who do yall think wins this one? This game will not count towards the standings but just for fun everyone make their pick.

i agree i really was expecting this game to be on there.. pat's picks are sometimes questionable at best. especially with a game like this bound to have split picks. i think pat sees himself in the driver seat so he's trying to coast himself to the money. LSU-Ole Miss? come on
Yeah I should have put two 1-9 teams instead of the CBS game of the week.
i think Notre Dame wins in a close one.
you should have.. these picks should be games that make you think and are toss ups. whats the point of having a LSU-Ole Miss when you know everyone will unanimously pick LSU? its a waste of a game.
