Here is what is on tap for this weekend:
Thursday:
# 11 Virginia Tech at Georgia Tech - VaTech should be pretty mad about losing the way they did last week. I'll take the Hokies.
Saturday:
# 21 Wisconsin at # 1 Ohio State - Wisconsin has been such an up and down team this season. Ohio State has been strong consistently. I'll take the Buckeyes at home.
Florida State at # 2 Boston College - If FSU was stronger, I would take them, but I will take BC at home.
# 3 LSU at # 17 Alabama - How the hell did LSU climb back up to #3 so fast? I like Alabama at home.
# 4 Arizona State at # 5 Oregon - Game of the week could turn into game of the year in a hurry. This one could determine the Pac-10 champ and also who could be in the big game at the end of the year. I like ASU, but Dennis Dixon and the running attack of Oregon, AT HOME has me taking the Ducks.
Texas A&M at # 6 Oklahoma - The Sooners know that a couple teams ahead of them could go down this weekend. Does that make them more focused for the game? I think so, Oklahoma wins it.
Nebraska at # 8 Kansas - Why isn't Billy Cal fired yet? Nebraska could be looking at a losing season this year. I'll go with the Jayhawks at home, though I wouldn't be surprised if Nebraska blew them out.
# 9 Missouri at Colorado - The way the Buffs have played this season, I could see them winning it at home, but I will take the Tigers because of their superior offense and defense.
Troy at # 10 Georgia - Omar Haugabook is the kind of quarterback that could engineer a big upset, but Georgia is on too much of a roll right now. Bulldogs down the Trojans.
# 12 Michigan at Michigan State - Such a big game for both teams. Michigan is trying to claw back into the top 10 and Michigan State needs this one to climb up from the bottom of the Big Ten. Wolverines on the ro-ad.
Rutgers at # 13 Connecticut - I don't care about UConn's ranking. I am taking Rutgers. I drank their flavor-aide last season and I'm not ready to quit drinking it yet.
# 15 Texas at Oklahoma State - I think that Mike Gundy is going to have to get his team to play a perfect game to beat Texas this weekend. I am going to go out on a limb and say that they do. Cowboys down the uninspired Longhorns.
Tennessee Tech at # 16 Auburn - Tigers D shuts down the small school.
Cincinnati at # 18 South Florida - Just a couple weeks ago the Bulls were # 2 in the nation. Now they are fighting not to lose for the third time this year. I'll go with USF at home in a big game for them.
Oregon State at # 19 USC - USC needs to overcome their biggest loss in the last 5 years (7 points). I think they take it out on the Beavers. Trojans pound the Beavers!! I just want to keep saying it. Say it to yourself a few times...
Vanderbilt at # 20 Florida - Gators big time.
San Jose State at # 22 Boise State - There they are again. The Broncos are in the top 25 again and ready to climb up the charts. They could have some trouble with the Spartans blending into the Smurf-Turf. Boise St with the win.
# 24 Wake Forest at # 23 Virginia - I'll take the Demon Deacons. Virginia has been unimpressive even though they have been ranked for a big part of the season.
# 25 Clemson at Duke - You kidding me? Clemson will only lose if their first 60 scholarship players don't show up. Clemson should score 50 points in this one and win it in big fashion.
