NCAA Picks Week 9, All on Uspet Alert.

Only kidding but we really haven't had that one week where about 5-7 top 25 teams drop off, will it happen? I doubt it but who knows...

1. Florida-vs. Georgia- The Gators offense have been struggling in the last couple of weeks but the Bulldogs can not stop anyone. I also do not like the chances of the Bulldogs offense, which is primarily passing. UF 34-16

3. Texas-at 14. Oklahoma State- I doubted the Longhorns before their big time win against Missouri last weekend and now they have a tough game in Stillwater. The Cowboys still do not play any defense so I expect a true shootout. TEX 38-31

4. Iowa-vs. Indiana- The Hawkeyes are currently #1 with the computers and they impress me more every week. Despite losing Adam Robinson for the year, I do not think it will bother him against the Hoosiers. IOWA 28-6

5. USC-at 10. Oregon- The Ducks have popped out of nowhere and now are back in the Top 10. They have College Gameday in Eugene and people wonder about Matt Barkley on the road. I think that point is moot because he dominated in Notre Dame. I think this game will be close and I will take the Trojans with a late FG. USC 24-21


6. TCU-vs. UNLV- The Horned Frogs looked good on the road last weekend and they shouldn't have any issues with the Runnin' Rebels especially at home. TCU 31-3


7. Boise State-vs. San Jose State- The Broncos have bulled through the WAC like they usually do and they play a pretty weak Spartan team. This shouldn't be a game. BOISE 45-10


8. Cincinnati-at Syracuse- A possible upset lurking? The Orange play very well in the Carrier Dome and I am unsure about Tony Pike's status. Doesn't matter, their offense is too good. CINCY 45-28

9. LSU-vs. Tulane- A Louisiana rivalry and this really isn't much of a game plus the Tigers have been playing good offense/defense. My friend who goes to LSU promises a drunk-dial, cannot wait for that. LSU 35-14

10. Oregon-SEE 5. USC

11. Georgia Tech-at Vanderbilt- The Yellow Jackets go out of the conference to play the Vandy but I really do not think it will be a problem for them. Vandy had their glory years with Jay Cutler and now they have passed. GT 27-7

12. Penn State-at Northwestern- The Nittany Lions head into a challenge against the Wildcats and it will be a battle in Evenston this weekend. I think its a defensive struggle with the Lions taking care of business late. PSU 21-10


13. Virginia Tech-vs. North Carolina- The Tar Heels have underachieved so far this season and the Hokies now they need to keep winning to try to get to the ACC Championship. I think Thursday night games are like Monday Night games for the NFL. The Hokies will roll. VT 31-14

14. Oklahoma State-SEE 3. Texas

16. Utah-vs. Wyoming- The Utes have been hanging around the top 20 and they barely escaped Air Force last weekend. Utah should be fine in this one. UTAH 49-24


17. Ohio State-vs. New Mexico State- The Buckeyes bounced back nicely against the Gophers last week and now gets the typical Big 10 cakewalk game to ensure they have 12 games. OSU 52-9


18. Houston-vs. Southern Miss- The Cougars have been just hanging out in Conference USA in the past couple of weeks and they should be fine against the Eagles. They did put up a fight against Kansas, yet I see Houston pulling away late. HOU 31-20


19. Miami-at Wake Forest- I would say this has a chance for an upset but Wake has lost the last two games. I do not like there chances whatsoever to knock off Jacory Harris and the defense of the U. MIAMI 38-14


21. West Virgina- at South Florida- The Mountaineers are playing good so far and they have a tough road game against the Bulls. They got rocked though against Pittsburgh last weekend so I really do not have faith in South Florida. WV 35-17

22. South Carolina- at Tennessee- The Ole' Ball Coach use to hate the Vols in the past and Lane Kiffin was mentioned in a song by Lil Wayne, which is pretty sweet. I think the Vols defense gets its done and they actually hit a field goal this time. TENN 16-14

23. Notre Dame-vs. Washington State- The Fightin Irish are playing this game in San Antonio and they will not have an issue with this game at all. The Cougars are not a good team at all and Jimmy Clausen will drop bombs throughout the game. ND 41-17


24. California-at Arizona State- Cal stats looking better and better after their blowout from Oregon. Jahvid Best still should be consider a Heisman candidate, in my opinion. The Sun Devils really haven't done anything special so far. CAL 28-21


25. Mississippi-at Auburn- The Tigers have really struggled so far in the past couple of weeks and really haven't got the offense going. I like the Rebels to roll even being on the road. OLE MISS 34-10
