Oklahoma - 7 We seen this before haven't we. Texas seems to wet their pants just looking across the line at the Sooners.
Minnesota + 4 Revenge for last year. Have a feeling Minny looked past Penn St last week and was already focusing on this one.
NC St -10 Very light as Wolf are away favs in rivalry game but big disparity in coaching and talent.
K State -2.5 Same as above but think KS will play their best ball of season here.
Tenn + 12.5 Your never as bad as you look when you lose ( Tenn), or as good as you look when you win ( GA)
Rutgers +6 This Scarlet Knight team is better then most think. Think this one is decided by FG.
Rice - 13.5 Think that SMU played their defensive game of the year last week. I see this playing out with SMU defense on the field all day. SMU can not run and will attack Rice with the pass. If Rice can get a few 3 and outs early , this will be a blow out. SMU trying to defense two totally different offenses in consecutive weeks. Did a nice job on containing Boise's passing game but will have a tough time here with Rice's running attack. Best bet at 13.5, Regular at 14
Syracuse under 47.....Syracuse will have tough time moving the chains. They always struggled against Miami scoring points and Florida St brings the same defensive speed. Running the ball against FS is a little different then against Buffalo, Cincy, and Rutgers. FS gives up only 2.2 ypc. No playmakers on outside for Cuse and yards will be tough up the middle.I think FS is going to be happy to win and get out of town. Can not see Bowden putting Sexton in a position to get hurt by dropping him back to pass any more then is necessary. I expect a steady dose of Washington and Booker, especially early. Syracuse run defense is not bad and should hold thier own early but will wear down . Expect Fla St to block a punt...they will have plenty of chances and SU protection is not good. Best bet
Good Luck
