Not as many top games this week with any significance to Nat'l Championship except a couple.
Notre Dame @ Fla St. WOW!! This will be one of the most heavily watched games for sure, especially for the Golden Domer fans/alumni, Catholic Church. Florida St with embattled 2013 Heisman trophy winner Winston. Golston a second shot at redemption, he's more mature and is getting into a groove. ND laid an egg getting behind 14-0 to UNC on Saturday which many felt would be a let down, but giving up 43 pts to UNC at home? That's not Irish like typically! Especially at home!! Fla St toyed with Sillycuse most of their game and gave 'Cuse the back door cover. Noles had plenty of opps to put 'Cuse away but didn't and still got a 18 pt win, which dropped them in the Polls by percentage points although they are undefeated. I have Noles to be favored by 4-7 pts. Let's see what Vegas throws out tonight!!
One game under the radar a bit may be Rutgers at 5-1 vs Ohio St 4-1. Rutgers is 5-1? WOW!! Barrett for OSU has been getting better each week and if not for some bad reads vs V Tech, the Buckeyes could be 6-0, but it is what it is and they are 5-1 and not going to get many pts from voters as Tech keeps laying bad performances, putting that loss by OSU to VT into the voting process. Computer numbers have Buckeyes as a 21 pt favorite, my number is 17. Interesting game that will get little hype, but this is big to HC Flood and the Rutgers backers.
Baylor at 6-0 goes into Morgantown, WV and plays the Mountaineers, last year these two teams put up 115 pts and WV failed to cover as a 30+ dog, losing 73-42 @ Baylor. Baylor off big game, we know, vs TCU, winning by 3, 61-58? WV got last second FG to beat Tx Tech in Lubbock on Saturday. TT has problems folks. Bama didn't beat up on WV as many would have thought and Bama has come down a little bit, but don't tell that chick, Phyllis who comes on that ESPN show with the SEC Guru, Feinbaum, she'll go apeshit on ya, just ask Colin Cowherd who she calls "Cow-terd". Will WV show up vs Baylor? I have this line to be around only 11-13 pts in favor of Baylor on the rd. Baylor on the rd already looked like crap vs Texas, but Texas "D" is tad bit better than WV "D" and Baylor won by 21 @ Austin.
Georgia @ 5-1 goes back on the rd again in the SEC to face the Hogs who lost to Bama 14-13 at home on Saturday. Georgia shut down Mizzou big time. Matty Mauk did squat and Georgia young players riddled Mizzou "D". Can Hogs hang with Georgia? I have that line at only -7 for Georgia, Ark is 3-1 L4 but has not played Georgia with HC Bielema.
Oklahoma 5-1 at home vs K State 4-1. Sooners should be 11-13 pt favorites at home and failed to cover their last 2 games, losing to TCU away, K State lost at home to Sooners LY 41-31. Waters get a second chance vs the Sooners.
Alabama 5-1 @ home vs A&M who's lost 2 straight now and didn't look good at all vs Miss. Miss basically shut em down until the 4th Q, but that score wasn't even indicative of what Ole Miss was doing to A&M. Land shark "D" was very tough. Bama has a decent "D", but their "O" is fucked up. Figures huh? Kiffinator running the offense?!! He's a terrific young mind, says, Saban. Sure Nick, are you sure you know about Lane? Lane is the biggest BS artist in college & pro football since he became a Head Coach for the Faiders. Bama should be at least a touchdown fav at home vs A&M, but that games smells like a 3 pt game if Hill & A&M can get their shit back together after 2 bad losses in which they were down 3 or more tds.
This game might not mean much in the BCS stuff, but Kentucky is 5-1 and heads into LSU, LSU should be a 15-18 pt favorite? WOW.
Another insignificant game, Oklahoma St is 5-1 and goes to TCU who dropped their first game to Baylor by 3. Okie State won last year so big revenge for TCU. TCU should be a 14 1/2 pt favorite? YIKES!!
GL this week.
As always, your input on any of these games is appreciated!
