I hope GS wins. If not, I may never go to another game in NC. I'm 0-2 so far (UNC and Appy). Turnovers and defense will be key to this game. If GSU can sustain some drives and not turn the ball over 4 times, GS has the same chance as winning as NCST does in my opinion.

ACU may win - but an FCS team beating an 0-12 FBS newbie is not "kicking off College Football 2014 with a bang!"

Abilene Christian over Georgia State. Georgia State showed signs of improvement last year losing several very close games but they have not shown they can finish the game. ACU is not an FCS powerhouse but they're no Savannah State either. They played New Mexico State pretty close last year, losing by 5. ACU kicks off College Football 2014 with a bang!

3 TD road dogs sometimes win. Not often. Historically between 4 and 5%. Lightning just struck you last game of last year. It won't strike twice.

Normally I would agree, but I don't think we need "lightening" to beat NCST. They have been in turmoil for a few years and have lost to some pretty bad squads. They were winless in the ACC last year. Maybe they turned it around in one offseason, but maybe not.

Until I see something to prove otherwise, it's clearly a possibility.

That's like saying Tuscon is the average State fan!

Which, by the way, what gutter did he climb into?

Did you just try and correct his spelling of lightning by spelling it incorrectly?

abliene christian lost a lot of starters: qb, all 3 starting receivers, their best o linemen, their starting tailback..I dont see them having it all together in the early season.
