Must say about your last review and the results, happy with the Florida tn game. Living here in the south that was "the big game to watch" the fact that it was "a game" tells me that Oregon (which put third stringers in against univ TN) is pretty good. Being anti sec since that is what I am subjected to daily, glad to see the PAC 12 getting some respect.

#1 Alabama 3-0 VS 21 Ole Miss 3-0
Should be a good game but I don't see Ole Miss staying with bama for 4 quarters.
Bama by 17.

#2 Oregon (4) 3-0 VS California 1-2
The Golden Bears are down this year and the Ducks
have grand plans. Ducks by 31.

#3 Clemson 3-0 VS Wake Forest 2-2
Clemson had a bit more of a test than expected last week and I think the Demon Deacons will pay the price for that.
Clemson by 21.

#4 Ohio State 4-0 VS 23 Wisconsin 3-1
the Badgers bounced back nicely after a close loss on the road but I see the Buckeyes as too strong for them.
I love Big Ten games like this. OSU by 7.

#5 Stanford 3-0 at Washington State 3-1
As much as I hate to say it. The Cougs are looking much improved!
Unfortunately for them they host a Stanford team that is just to strong for them.
Stanford by 17.

#6 LSU 4-0 at #9 Georgia 2-1
The Game of the week. If this was at LSU I would pick them by 7 but at Georgia it could go either way.
I actually Like LSU better than the Bulldogs but my gut says they come up just short. Georgia by 1.

#7 Louisville 4-0 BYE
I just felt I needed to add Louisville may not play a top 25 team the rest of the way.
Starting them out ranked so high is just ridiculous in my opinion.

#8 Florida State 3-0 at Boston College 2-1
I have been very impressed with FSU. the Seminoles by 17 over a solid but not spectacular BC team.

#9 Georgia 2-1 VS #6 LSU 4-0
Same as above

#10 Texas A&M 3-1 at Arkansas 3-1
I have always been a closet Razorbacks fan but them losing to Rutgers sends out warning flags.
The Aggies by 13.

#11 Oklahoma State 3-0 at West Virginia 2-2
West Virginia gave Oklahoma all they wanted but them got crushed by Maryland.
The Cowboys will be to much for them. OSU by 14.

#12 South Carolina 2-1 at UCF 3-0
UCF has looked very strong this season and S. Carolina has been a little shaky.
This pick could make me look foolish but I'm going with an upset! UCF by 1.

#13 UCLA 3-0 BYE

#14 Oklahoma 3-0 at #22 Notre Dame 3-1
Very good game here. Both teams looking to prove they are worth talking about.
Oklahoma by 3.

#15 Miami (FL) 3-0 at South Florida 0-3
This is not the S. Fla team of the last few years.
Miami wins by 35.

#16 Washington 3-0 VS Arizona 3-0
Arizona has not been tested yet but they are never a team Washington can take for granted.
It's at Husky stadium and the Dawgs are a little more battle tested. Huskies by 3.

#17 Northwestern 4-0 BYE

#18 Michigan 4-0 BYE

#19 Baylor 3-0 BYE

#20 Florida 2-1 at Kentucky 1-2
The gators will chew them up. UF by 23.

#21 Ole Miss 3-0 at Alabama 3-0
Same as above

#22 Notre Dame 3-1 vs Oklahoma 3-0
Same as above

#23 Wisconsin 3-1 at Ohio State 4-0
Same as above

#24 Texas Tech 4-0 BYE

#25 Fresno State 3-0 at Hawaii 0-3
Hawaii has is 0-3 but has played a very good schedule so far.
Stll Fresno State by 17.

Good luck to everyone!

Ah damn. That DT on UF (Easley) tore up his knee and is done for the season. Now, I'm not a UF fan at all but watching that Tenn game this past weekend he was just a fun player to watch - always on beast mode. Hopefully he can get the knee in shape before the combine as he is a Sr. The article says he can request a medical hardship season but why go another season only making a few hundred grand.

Don't be surprised to see Ole Miss take down Alabama. Alabama's defense is suspect especially with the threat of a running QB (not Johny Football). Alabama's defensive backs aren't that strong this year. Ole Miss offense still a work in progress, but their defense has some serious talent (young talent) that may be ready to shut down Alabama. If I were a betting man, I would take Ole Miss this weekend and would even consider it straight up. That being said, I still hate the SEC and Ole Miss most of all.

LSU Georgia from the SEC should be a good game. The radio heads out here seem to be picking Georgia since they are at home. I tend to think its going to be LSU as I think they just have slightly better talent (though not impressed with either coach).

Ole Miss averages 250 passing and 114 rushing a game.

-Miss has had two weeks to prepare.
-Miss at home.

That's all good...but can Ole Miss keep Ala from scoring 70+?

They held them from scoring 34 last season and if the WR's are hurting so will the O. It should be can Ole Miss put 25+ on the board and don't think they'll be able to.

Feeling good about my picks so far.
Even if I pulling for LSU I had a feeling The Bulldogs would get the upset.

UGA was favored - how was that the upset? The line was at 3.5 - LSU should have made folks some cash (cough cough - thank you Tigers )

Amen to Stan/Wash both at -10. Seemed like a no brainer although those can be a long ride - not this week!!

Kiffin gone? Should be - embarrassing.

Arizona was 3-0 and always plays UW well.

LSU was higher ranked and undefeated so feels like an upset to me.
