The Wolfpack saw their Week 3 contest against West Virginia cancelled due to Hurricane Florence, and with a bye this week they won’t see action until their Week 5 game against Virginia.

Has Malik Cunningham taken over the Lamar Jackson role in Bobby Petrino’s offense? The talented QB ran for 129 yards in the Cardinals win over Western Kentucky, but needed two late touchdowns to get the victory. Virginia is next up as Louisville looks to get their third win of the season.

Is Boston College’s offense a balanced attack? That is the question defensive coordinators will have to ask themselves after the Eagles beat down the Demon Deacons on Thursday night. AJ Dillon ran for 185 yards and a score, and Anthony Brown threw five touchdown passes. If they can play this well every week they could play the role of spoiler in the ACC title race.
