Some great games this weekend, including the biggest game of the year with #2 Texas at #4 Ohio State. This one is definitely a tough one to call and should be a great game to watch. #20 Notre Dame at #3 Michigan and #5 LSU at #15 Arizona St are also worth watching.

A lot more differences in opinion this week… Good! More fun this way.
I think Michigan and Notre Dame is going to be a really high scoring game, Michigan’s D isn’t too great and we saw what Charlie Weis was capable at this level last week. I sure was tempted to pick an SMU upset over TCU. I don’t have the balls to pick it that way, but I want it known that I think SMU is going to play them tough and has a good chance to upset the Horned Frogs still riding high from their own upset last week.

Texas has more talent than OSU at probably every position except linebacker. Texas is ranked #2 in the nation. OSU is playing at home and are only 1 point favorites. It looks to me that a lot of people think Texas will beat OSU.

Bucknasty, you act shocked that anyone could possibly pick Texas over OSU but then you say they’re only going to win 15 to 7? That doesn’t sound very confident. And how are they going to get 15? Kick five field goals?
Michigan looked very average today and Pitt lost to freaking Ohio last night, so I’m still not sure how good ND really is.

Looks like I am dominating you again Brian. What an amazing play in that LSU game.
Also, good call on Boise State being good this year, they look super.

Hey, check out the TCU-SMU score? Go Mustangs! I’m a genius without the guts to make the picks.
ASU completely blew this one. A blocked field goal and a blocked punt, both for touchdowns, in about a two minute span. They blew it and I’m personally offended. Maryland gave up two scores late to ruin me too, those games both could’ve easily gone my way. I stand by my picks and blame the teams for choking.
