8-5 for the week 21 -11 YTD 65.6%

Just for the record, I try to select games of interest or "homer" games unless it's a total mismatch (like the hogs and Bama). If you have a request I'll add it in.

(1) Nebraska at No. 3 Oklahoma | 12 p.m. | FOX
This has the potential for a classic beatdown. Rattler could probably throw left hand and the Sooners would still win. True they shut out sisters of the poor last week but the jury is still out on how good the defense is. Sooners 48-16

(2) No. 8 Cincinnati at Indiana | 12 p.m. | ESPN
Neither team has looked like world beaters but it's a home game so I figure the Hoosiers will be fired up but not enough to call for an upset. Cincy 33-20

(3) No. 15 Virginia Tech at West Virginia | 12 p.m. | FS1
I really thought hard about this one but I think the Hokies pull out a tough one 31-23

(4) Michigan State at No. 24 Miami | 12 p.m. | ABC
D'Eric King just hasn't impressed at QB for the Canes and something keeps telling me to pick the Spartans. I think these two teams are very evenly matched and should be a close but boring game. I'm going with my gut and calling the upset....Sparty 30-27

(5) Purdue at No. 12 Notre Dame | 2:30 p.m. | NBC
This is a game that Purdue can win and the Irish just haven't looked that good this year. Really tempting but I'm going to play the percentages here. Boilers will keep it close but the luck of the Irish holds 35-27

(6) Alabama at No. 11 Florida | 3:30 p.m. | CBS
Bama is supposed to have this killer defense this year but I just haven't seen it yet. I would not be surprised if we had an upset. I also would not be surprised at a Bama blowout. We'll know a lot more about both teams after Saturday ....Bama 37-26

(7) Florida State at Wake Forest | 3:30 p.m. | ESPN
All I can say is "Thank you Hunter Yurichek for not hiring Mike Norvell. What a dumpster fire! With all the money and talent in that penis shaped state there is absolutely no reason to lose to a team called the "Cocks". Demon Deacons 30-20

(8) Georgia Southern at No. 20 Arkansas | 4 p.m. | SEC Network
Triple option teams injure players and are hard to prepare for. The Hogs should romp but I thought that against N Texas state too. I'm going to take the cautiously optimistic view and say Hogs 34-17 and hope nobody gets a knee injury

(9) Mississippi State at Memphis | 4 p.m. | ESPN2
Memphis scored 55 but gave up 50 to Arkansas st. MSU looked pretty salty. I'll say the Dogs 33-24

(10) Auburn at No. 10 Penn State | 7:30 p.m. | ABC
Auburn has scored 122 points in two games but not so fast my friend. Two mediocre overrated teams, Auburn 27-24

(11) Virginia at No. 21 North Carolina | 7:30 p.m. | ACC Network
The Cavs beat up a hapless Illinois team but the Tarholes are neither hapless or Illinois. I honestly don't know what to think about this match up. Gotta go for NC just for Larke. Tarholes 30-20

(12) Tulane at No. 17 Ole Miss | 8 p.m. | ESPN2
I hate Ole Miss about as bad as Eddie does and Tulane can score some points but so can the Lane Train. I'm gonna say the rebelblackbearlandsharks win a shootout 45-31

(13) Oklahoma State at Boise State | 9 p.m. | FS1
Kinda wished I had dodged this one and I'm sure I'll regret it but I'm going Boise st 27-26
