College Football Week 8 picks

After 4-1 last week getting me to a 23-13 overall record. Week 7 had a several close calls for the elite one of which not being able to pull of a win on the road againsg Georgia Tech. Florida narrowly escaped hog seuy and Texas' offense struggled in overcomming arch rival Oklahoma. The best part......we are only about 1/2 way through the season so who knows whats next.

Tennessee at Alabama- Alabama has proven that they have not lost a step from last year after loosing John Parker Wilson and Glenn Coffee, they have came up big when they need to and Ingram is running through defenses. Tennessee comes in not really knowing what to expect, they give the Gators a war in the Swamp but the offense struggles mightely against Auburn then they romp Georgia. Go figure... Rocky Top will give the Tide a game but Ingram takes control in the 4th quarter.

Tennessee 17 Alabama 27

Georgia Tech at Virginia- Yeah the Wa Hoos are leading the ACC Coastal and are the only team that is unbeaten in ACC play. Yes this is the same team that lost to William and Mary and Southern Miss, but they have not lost since. Now are they the favorite Saturday, no but the will give the Ramblin Wreck fits after the Jackets just had an upset win against Virginia Tech. Now they have to play on the road against a team with confidence. Upset Alert anyone?

Georgia Tech 24 Virginia 30

Auburn at LSU- One looks at the last two games Auburn has played and can't help asking....What happened? They looked dead the 1st hals against Arkansas and did not do a thing against Kentucky. However LSU hasn't always looked great this year, strugggeling at home against Mississippi State, a team Auburn beat by 40. Anyone who has watched any SEC football knows this game is always close and the winner is probably Bamas main threat to getting to the SEC title game. If Auburn wins and Bama slips up before the game in Auburn the Iron Bowl could be for a trip to the SEC Championship and dont think for a second War Eagle is not aware of that.

Auburn 23 LSU 21

Penn State at Michigan- Penn State has not lived up to some of the expectations held at the begenning of the year but they can still get into the BCS IF they escape the Big House and the rest of their season without a loss. Michigan has improved and is theoredically still in the Big 10 race. For the Wolverines to have a shot at a confernce title this is a must win. At the end of the day Michigan will force Clark into a mistake and "Hail to the Victors" will be rockin Ann Arbor.

Penn State 34 Michigan 41

Oregon State at USC- A team that doomed the Trojans on a couple of occasions over the past 5 years rolls into the Collisium with confidence and a hope to perhaps upset the Trojans again. However USC is at home and they know the Pac 10 and any National Title hopes relly on this game. Oregon State maybe better than the teams of the past but USC will not get caught overlooking the Beavers again.

Oregon State 31 USC 45
