The Transitive Property

After a glance at the scores over the first half of the season, one may have reason to believe that Florida State is in big trouble as they travel to Georgia Tech for today's featured Atlantic Coast Conference football matchup.

Remember, Florida State was shut down at home by a score of 12-3 at home against Wake Forest on September 20th. Of course, Wake was SMASHED at Maryland on October 18 by a score of 26-0. Maryland, in turn, was brutalized 31-0 by Virginia in Charlottesville on October 4th. That same Virginia team was embarassed 31-3 by Duke in Durham on September 27th. And Duke got stomped 27-0 by Georgia Tech in Atlanta on October 4th. So, if GaTech shut out Duke, which routed Virginia, which shut out Maryland, which shut out Wake, which shut down FlaState; why wouldn't GaTech absolutely annihilate Florida State in their game today?

Well, actually, in this year's ACC there are plenty of good reasons, but... I'll have to save that for another post!
