Missouri/Oklahoma
Oklahoma is running out of legitimate threats pretty quickly. Missouri QB is a threat - but he's matched by Oklahoma's quick linebackers. Still, Missouri shows some life.
Oklahoma 35, Missouri 24
Miami-Fla./Temple
Miami is also running out of legitimate opponents, as it takes on the Big East bottom feeders. No let down is possible against Temple, although Brock Berlin has two turnovers.
Miami 48, Temple 10
Georgia/Vanderbilt
Georgia unveils the class of 2007 by halftime.
Georgia 56, Vandy 0
Florida State/Virginia
Virginia was the wiseguy pick for the national championship at the beginning of the year. They can match FSU athlete for athlete at most positions. Who ya gonna take, Matt Shaub or Chris Rix? Rix finds a way to lose a close one.
Virginia 24, FSU 21
Southern Cal/Notre Dame
What's The Dude have against Notre Dame, anyway? Notre Dame played some nice defense against Pittsburgh last week, and their offense made enough big plays to win. Southern Cal abuses ND's rookie quarterback, however.
USC 17, ND 7
Washington State/Stanford
Washington State is the most overrated team in college football. This trend continues for another week.
Washington State 45, Stanford 7
Iowa/Ohio State
Iowa simply doesn't have the defense Ohio State does - the Iowa defense tends to give up too many big plays. Ohio State gets it done.
Ohio State 21, Iowa 17
Florida/Arkansas
What do we really know about the Arkansas squad? They beat a weak Texas team for a nice victory on the road, then lose a few eeks later to an underrated Auburn team. Florida is coming off a nice win, but also struggling to find their identity. The team that wins this one can right their season, the team that loses is in some trouble.
Florida 21, Arkansas 17
Purdue/Wisconsin
Here is the premier matchup this week. I watched Purdue/Penn State while the rest of you watched the Red River Slaughter. Purdue didn't impress.
Wisconsin 34, Purdue 21
Western Michigan/Northern Illinois
Western Michigan has had alot of succes in the past. They recruit well, and are a dangerous opponent here. Still...
Northern Illinois 34, Western Michigan 17
Michigan State/Minnesota
Minnesota lost in the worst way to Michigan - a total collapse on both sides of the ball. Look for a hangover as Minnesota struggles to find itself. Jeff Smoker is that good.
Michigan State 45, Minnesota 14
Texas A&M/Nebraska
Texas A&M finds it difficult to copy the blueprint of Missouri with their style of offense. However, Nebraska likes to play with fire - bad special teams and excessive turnovers
Texas A&M 21, Nebraska 7
Miami of Ohio/Ball State
Miami is coming of a bye week called the University of Buffalo. Well rested, they dominate and show why they are best team in the MAC.
Miami 56, Ball State 10
Texas/Iowa State
Texas gets a chance to show it can run the ball again, and they'll need to. Iowa State lost to Northern Illinois, and Northern was able to run the ball against them. Texas gets it done on the ground in an unimpressive game.
Texas 28, Iowa State 17
Virginia Tech and Tennessee
Tennessee could have lost to South Carolina and Marshall this year. Neither is a bowl team. Tennessee is in some trouble this year.
Virginia Tech 33, Tennessee 21
Ohio University/Kentucky
Kentucky is coming off some disappointing losses against good teams. Ohio is banged up, losing its top two quarterbacks in its historic win over Central Florida. But when you run a triple option, how important is the QB's arm? The thrid string quarterback can't be as bad as Jamal Lord, right?
Ohio University 54, Kentucky 12
EDIT: Upon futher research, Ohio is ranked #91 on RoadRage's rankings while Kentucky is ranked #92. What a match-up - and Kentucky is seventeen point favorites. Bet OU big - and thank RoadRage for your winnings. Or blame him for you loss.
