#4 West Virginia at Maryland

Maryland's deep defense isnt the same as Marshalls, where WVU didtn break away until the 4th. Slaton and White wont be abel to deplete the defense as quickly, so Maryland has to find ways to score on offense in order to win this potential defensive struggle.

Iowa at Iowa State

Rivalry game, although iSU hasnt looked good for...its been awhile.

#22 Tennessee at #5 Florida

This was going to be my game of the week, but the SEC gets a little and lets be honest here, does Tennessee stand a chance against the powerhouse of Florida?


Notre Dame at Michigan

Myabe this should be the game "not to watch" this week, as finally, one of these two miserable teams has to lose. This is the first time ever that UM and ND have started the same season 0-2.

#11 UCLA at Utah

BYU put up alot yards against UCLA last week. However, Utah is wouthout their starting QB or RB, so this may be ugly.

#9 Louisville at Kentucky

This isnt the same old Kentucky team, they have a great QB in Woodson and a nice RB in Little. Louisville let MTST put up 41 points on them, what will Kentucly do?

#21 Boston College at #15 Georgia Tech

This may be a preview of the ACCCG, as both teams are of to good starts.

#24 Hawaii at UNLV

UNLV gave Wisonsin allthey could handle last week, maybe they can complete the game and knock off Brennan's Warriors. Colt has thrown for nearly 1000 yds and 10 TD's with a 77% completion percentage in just TWO games.

GAME OF THE WEEK

#10 Ohio State at Washington

Maybe im plying a bit of himer, yes. THe reason this game is being picked, is becuase UW is looking to be a good team this year, while OSU is still unsure of its identy on offense. This would be the biggest upset in years for the Huskies if they can pull it off; they beat #22 (and rebuilding) Bsu last week, keeping BSU winless in away games versus BCS opponents. Vegas lines are dropping closer to a neutral line (was +4, now +3) and the Huskies are tough at home. Classic Big 10/Pac-10 match-up here.

Vegas is picking FSU to win that? They must not have watched the game vs UAB where they almost LOST. Colorado isntthe best team, but neither is a depleted and under-talented FSU. Weird.

Yeah i watched that game. CU just doesnt have the firepower, but the defense had flashes of being realy good. ASU is no pushover, however, and is better than FSU. People expect ASU to finish in the top 20 this year.

But watching FSU, you never know what youre gonna get. So far, they have played 2 HORRIFIC halves (first), and 2 FABOULOUS hanlves (second) in both games. Its really like Jeckyl and Hyde. Plus, Drew Weatherford just isnt that great...not to mention FSU LOST their starting RB to a concussion last week and not sure if he will play against CU.

CU is the same way...what team will show up! Both first halfs the offense has loked good, but both 2nd halfs it sucks.

I guess 1 thing going on CU's favor is this is thier home opener so they should be pumped...you would think.

Dont be so sure, they sturggled for three quaters against Marshall, but ultimately won becuase the depth of Marshalls' D line isnt very deep. Maryland is bigger, faster, stronger, and deeper than Marshall.

im steppin out ona limb, but im gonna go with Tennesee to beat FL
You, my friend, are crazy. Florida is raw again this year, and Tebow looks to have a great career in Gainesville.

Michigans gonna get in the win column
I dont know man, they both look pretty bad. This can go either way.

Ohio State will beat the Dub, but i hope W beats there ass though
I just UW aint overconfident after a big win against BSU. We have to understand that we ARE the underdog and play as such. OSU looks lost on Offense and their defense is big...but not fast. If Locker can get to the edges, the Buckeyes may open up the pass game for us in fear of Locker breakin.

and i'll take USC over Nebraska, but im goin for Nebraska though
USC may expose Nebraska for their mediocricy.

WVU/Maryland on tonite, folks!

Yeah, i forgot to put that one up there. USC is gonna trounce them anyways...Nebraska is overrated, they barely beat a depleted WF team.
That's why I can't wait to see it! We'll get to see if Neb. is for real and if USC is really who everyone thinks they are......

I think the favorites in almost every game will win.

WASH v. Ohio St. should be a good game @ Wash.

So should USC v. Nebraska. I'm not crazy enough to call an upset but I think it will at least be competitive.

Usc is no Michigan...they are really that good. THey are 8 RB's deep on that team....that is not even funny.
Agreed. I just want to see it on display. It's fucking crazy to me that a team that loses Lendell White, Reggie Bush, Matt Leinhart, etc, etc. is so fucking stacked just two years later........

LOL yeah, i aint 100 on this one, its my upset pick, u right FL aint no joke this year, and it @FL, will be a tough game for Tenn


and the ND vs Michigan game, as long as they feed Hart the ball and dont turn it over a buch of times, they should win, but like u said both teams suck ass, so it could go either way

Thats what happens when you are USC. They are usually at the top in recuriting every year. Any kid playing in HS ball Cali wants to play for USC.
