Should be a nice little college football weekend. Make predictions/ talk about the games here.

Minnesota vs. Iowa (-5)
I like Iowa here - but Minnesota has been playing strong since their Michigan letdown. Minnesota's standout QB is a bit woosy, and Iowa has a nice run defense. Iowa by ten.

Michigan State vs. Wisconsin (-2)
I'll take Michigan State. Wisconsin has too many injuries, though QB Sorgi is expected to play.

Purdue vs. Ohio State (-3)
This is a really tough one. Purdue will not be able to run the ball, Ohio State will need to against a tough Purdue D. Kyle Orten has two proven wideouts that could give Ohio State some trouble. Give me Ohio State late.

Texas Tech vs. Texas (-16.5)
As the line indicates, Texas Tech is playing in the other Big 12. (The one without Texas, Nebraska, and Oklahoma). Texas Tech's record of 7-3 isn't as pretty as it seems, as they have mopped up some Big12 fodder. Texas by two touchdowns.

Pittsburgh (-1) vs. West Virginia
Again, the line gets this one right as this contest will be much closer than advertised. Pittsburgh's D is susceptible, and West Virginia gets their QB back. Give me West Virginia in the mild upset.

Other interesting match-ups:
LSU (-6.5) vs. Alabama
Cincinnati vs. TCU (-6.5)
Syracuse vs. Miami (Fl.) (-19)
Florida (-7) vs. South Carolina
