VIRGINIA'S LUCK RUNS OUT, RENEGADES BLOW GAME



Well the Virginia Cavaliers luck ran out in Raleigh yesterday as the Cavaliers blew an opportunity to be in 1st place by themselves falling to the NC State Wolfpack 29-24. The offense played very sporadically and the defensive secondary was really exposed. It is now a three horse race in the Coastal Division of the ACC between Virginia, Virginia Tech and don't count Miami out they still have to play UVA & Virginia Tech. The East Carolina Pirates picked up another win yesterday beating UAB 41-6, with the win the Pirates remained tied with Southern Miss for the top spot in the East Division of CUSA, the Pirates will travel to Memphis next week. The Georgia Bulldogs picked up a big victory yesterday knocking off the Florida Gators 42-30, I don't think there is any doubt that the SEC is the toughest conference in college football followed by the PAC 10. In the NFL today the Redskins will have there hands full this afternoon when they play the New England Patriots, the Redskins are 17 point underdogs in this game, the Packers will play in Denver Monday night. The Richmond Renegades blew a 3-1 lead and fell to the Jacksonville Barracudas 5-3 last night at the RC, the Renegades goalie let in a couple of very soft goals in my opinion but the defense didn't help him much most of the night. The Renegades will return home Friday night against the Twin City Cyclones. The Boston Red Sox are just 1 win away from sweeping the Colorado Rockies after last nights 10-5 win in Denver, the Red Sox can finish of the Rockies tonight. The Nascar Nextel Cup Series will be racing at the Atlanta Motor Speedway today, Jeff Gordon will be looking to extend his points lead over Jimmy Johnson. MICKEY
