WEEK 2 FOOTBALL PICKS

We had some interesting High School football games last week in Week 1 of the season. We have some traditional rivalry games on the schedule this week, as well as a renewal of a rivalry between two of the states most storied programs. We also have the opening of the College football season and we will look at some of the key games on the schedule.

The ArmChair Coach went 9 and 0 in game picks last week and 1 and 0 in Week 0 and my record for the season is 10 and 0 for a percentage of 1.ooo. The games start getting a little more difficult this week as we add some College games to the mix. Next week we will add some NFL games. Lets look at the Week 2 football picks.

High School Games

Gaffney @ Greenwood..... This is the first match-up between these two storied programs since the 1990's. I see the Indians going on the road and getting a hard fought win..... Gaffney 20 Greenwood 14. For a more in depth preview of this game go to the Tribe Blitz link on this page.

Spartanburg @ Dorman..... These two traditional rivals have played twice a year the last couple of years. Historically the Vikings have dominated this rivalry, but in recent years the Cavaliers have turned the table. They turn the table once again..... Dorman 28 Spartanburg 17

Cheraw @ Chesterfield..... I had the opportunity to see this traditional rivalry a couple of years ago and there is one thing for certain, They Do Not Like Each Other! The Rams go for their 4th win in a row over the Braves and they will get it..... Chesterfield 33 Cheraw 15

Broome @ Union County..... This has been a close game the last couple of years and this year will be no exception..... Union County 23 Broome 14

Landrum @ Chesnee..... This is a good rivalry that is sort of under the radar. The Cardinals won big last week and the Eagles won a close one over Chase. The Eagles play better this week and get the win..... Chesnee 23 Landrum 17

Indian Land @ Blacksburg..... The Warriors have been hard on the Wildcats in recent years and they will again this year..... Indian Land 17 Blacksburg 13

College Games

Southern Mississippi @ South Carolina..... This game has a chance to be closer than most people think..... South Carolina 24 Southern Mississippi 16

North Texas @ Clemson..... The Tigers are ready to hit someone not wearing orange. The post C.J. Spiller era begins with a big win for the Tigers..... Clemson 34 North Texas 10

North Carolina vs LSU at The Georgia Dome..... If you like offense you probably won't like this game, as you have two very good defenses and questionable offenses..... LSU 13 North Carolina 10

Boise State vs Virginia Tech at Washington, D.C. ..... This game between Top 10 teams is very intriguing. Boise State needs to win to stay in the BCS Bowl and National Championship race. Virginia Tech needs this win to stay in National Championship race and it would be a very big win for the ACC. I see the physical play of Virginia Tech wearing down Boise State in the 4th quarter..... Virginia Tech 27 Boise State 24

Enjoy your sports weekend.

Until next Time.
