0 DudleyDude Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 7 - Clemson Tigers - anagram of 'escorts mingle' 11 - BC (Boston College Eagles) with only 1 left, I'm guessing "A Carbon Copy" refers to the ACC. So I know what the final answer should be, but I can't figure out how it fits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 thought maybe opening is gate and a chain maybe ch? or maybe just "opening a" and chain indicating the connection between those two words (ga)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 hugemonkey Posted January 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 thought maybe opening is gate and a chain maybe ch? or maybe just "opening a" and chain indicating the connection between those two words (ga)? Great that is it!opening = gate chain = ch (it is the abbreviation for a unit of measure) gatech = Georgia Tech, as in "www.gatech.edu" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
