After 2 weeks of picks for me so far im 6-4 so im doin pretty good after a 4-1 week, and of course had Notre Dame not gotten a crazy overtime win I would have had an undefeated week. Lets see how this week will unfold.
#21 Nebraska @ #24 Mizzou
Finally we get to see a Big 12 showdown. Sure this is not the south division with Oklahoma or Texas, but here is a storied program. Nebraska, trying to get back to the top. Mizzou however is looking to get back to another Big 12 title opportunity. And these teams have totally different philosophies. Mizzou will try and spread the ball out on offense and use packages on defense to force turnovers. Nebraska will pound the ball down your throat, and blitz until their players get tired. Mizzou has a slight advantage being at home, but in the end I think Nebraska might have to much for the Tigers to handle. My prediction: Nebraska wins by 8.
#3 Bama @ #20 Ole Miss
Even on paper the Rolling Tide should be able to roll through the Runnin Rebels. Jevan Snead is not having a year up to expectations and after a good start, the rebels are starting to look like the 07 rebels not the 08 ones. My Prediction: Bama wins by 13.
#22 Georgia Tech @ Florida State
I bet the schedule makers didnt see this one coming. Georgia Tech, being the higher ranked team, playing Florida State, who is unranked, at home in week 6. Georgia Tech is starting to emerge as a potential ACC title game participant. Virginia Tech comes in to ATL next week and if the Jackets can beat Tech their remaining schedule is ridiculously easy by comparison. I expect Tech to live up to the Buzz and beat the Seminoles. My Prediction: Georgia Tech wins by 5.
Michigan at #12 Iowa
After and embarrasing loss to Michigan state Michigan, though unfairly in my opinion, fell out of the rankings all together. Iowa however is still running high after a upset win vs Penn State, and then beat arkansas state just to keep the nations 2nd longest winning streak alive. Here is my upset of the week. As good as Iowa is playing, they arent able to just put teams away. Michigan will be pissed off and ready to knock off a ranked opponent at home. My Prediction: Michigan wins by 6.
Georgia at Tennessee
Oh where did that good ole' Rocky Top go. A disappointing season yet again for the Volunteers. But the Bulldogs aren't exactly exceeding expectations either. Look for a game tht will probably stay in the teens. My Prediction: Tennessee wins by 3.
