I think this is a big week of college football that I am going to miss thanks to getting drunk all day enjoying homecoming festivities that Eau Claire has to offered. Hopefully, I will catch a couple of the games from time to time.
1. Florida-vs. Arkansas- The Gators had a tough nose game against LSU and the Gators if you remember slipped up against an unranked SEC West team last year. I do not think the Razorbacks will be a problem for Tebow and company. UF 35-10
2. Alabama-vs 22. South Carolina- There are a lot of people who are big believer in the Tide and some even think they are the best team in college football. This will be a defensive struggle and I think the Tide should be just fine. BAMA 24-10
3. Texas-vs. 20. Oklahoma- The annual Red River Rivalry and the ultimate match up with Colt McCoy vs. Sam Bradford. The Sooners haven't proved to me yet that they can be back in the driver seat in the Big 12. While the Longhorns have done the same thing. This will be a real interesting game and I like the Horns' experience in a close one. UT 34-24
4. Virgina Tech-at 19. Georgia Tech- This is a big hurdle for the Hokies to clear if they want to contend for the National Championship. The Yellow Jackets have gotten in together as of late and I think it willl be a close battle. Tyrod Taylor should be able to will them to victory. VT 31-28
5. Boise State-at Tulsa- defeated Tulsa 28-21 on Weds- I didn't feel like doing my picks early because Thursday is the earliest time that I want to do it and the Broncos are not a top five team, which they showed last night.
6. USC- at 25. Notre Dame- The Trojans have owned the Fightin' Irish and this game has so many other things than its just a game. Jimmy Clausen's Heisman hopes ride on this and Charlie Weis' job may be saved with a win. I am not calling for an upset but this game will be down to the wire. USC 28-24
7. Ohio State-at Purdue- The Buckeyes showed me something last weekend against the Badgers and they will be missing star running back although that shouldn't matter because the Boilermakers are really bad. OSU 38-17
8. Cincinnati-at 21. South Florida- Talk about an ultimate Chuck's Corner Upset Alert. The Bearcats have played one real good team and the Thursday Night curse has to be taken into effect. The Bulls also went into Tallahassee and beat Florida State. USF 24-21
9. Miami-at UCF- They get a cupcake in this one even though its a road game, the U should be fine. Jacory Harris will be able to pad his stats a bit and get it done. MIAMI 45-13
11. Iowa-at Wisconsin- I think the Hawkeyes are the best team in the Big 10 right now and I think Saturday game will prove it. They will face a rowdy/drunk crowd that will want Iowa blood but the Badgers are historically bad against them plus their defense will take OSU game plan. IOWA 23-10
12. TCU-vs. Colorado State- Some people feel that the Horned Frogs have the best chance of being a BCS buster or even playing in the National Championship?! Their defense is tough and they will have no problems with the Rams. TCU 31-14
14. Penn State-vs. Minnesota- I believe this the battle for the Little Brown Jug and this will not be much of a battle. The continued screw ups by Adam Weber is hurting the progression of this team and the Nittany Lions know they need this win. PSU 28-13
15. Nebraska-vs. Texas Tech- The Cornhuskers have been lying in the weeds somewhat and got a big win on the road last weekend. They face a Red Raider team who hates playing away from Lubbock and Saturday will not be different. NEB 38-20
16. Oklahoma St.-vs. Missouri- I got burned by the Tigers last weekend and I think they have a chance in Stillwater with them missing Dez Bryant although the Cowboys are more than Bryant and get it done late. OSU 38-31
17. Kansas-at Colorado- Boulder is a tough place to play but I do not forsee an upset going on here. The Jayhawks have a potent offense and the Buffs do not have the defense to stop them. KU 35-10
18. BYU-at San Diego St- The "Fightin Chets" get another easy Mountain West opponent and I think they will blow out the lowly Aztecs. BYU 45-6
20. Oklahoma-see 3. Texas
21. South Florida- SEE 8. Cincinnati
22. South Carolina-SEE 2. Alabama
23. Houston-at Tulane- The Cougars have fallen back down to earth and they are playing a pretty easy opponent in the Green Wave this weekend. HOU 41-6
24. Utah-at UNLV- The Runnin' Rebels have given up 63, and 59 points in the last two weeks. I do not think this bolds well for them against the Utes this week. UTAH 56-21
25. Notre Dame-SEE 6. USC
