Week Five College Football Picks

Here you go with your daily dose of College Football picks....

3. Alabama-at Kentucky- The Wildcats proved last week that they are only good at knocking out quarterbacks that seemed indestructible. The Tide should roll in this one. BAMA 31-10

4. LSU-at 18. Georgia- Usually the Bulldogs are known for their defense but this year their offense has been awesome which I would credit to the growing offense line. The Tigers have a great D but I feel they will fall to the Top 5 curse looking ahead to Florida. UGA 24-14

6. Virgina Tech-at Duke- Interesting game but the Dukies lost to a FCS team so that should be the writing on the wall. Also if you dont know who running back Ryan Williams is for the Hokies, get use to it. VT 38-17

7. USC-at 24. California- Both teams have been dealing with many things such as the Stefon Johnson injury and the thirty-nine point beating the Bears were handed last week in Autzen. I think Coach Carroll rallies the troops in this one and they win it for Stefon. USC 31-21

8. Oklahoma-at 17. Miami- The Hurricanes finished their tour of the Top 25 this week and thankfully, they will not be seeing Sam Bradford. I think the U got humbled last week and I do not believe in Landry Jones whatsoever. MIA 28-17

9. Ohio State-at Indiana- "Chuck's Corner Upset Alert II" staying in the Big 10 as well. I think this game is very interesting, the Buckeyes are missing Bam Herron and the Hoosiers should have won in Michigan last week. Late field goal for the Buckeyes to win it. OSU 23-20

10. Cincinnati-at Miami-OH- The Bearcats have vaulted to the top 10 with only one significant win. But Tony Pike is the real deal and they could make the typical Big East push into the National Championship discussion. CINCY 45-20

12. Houston-at UTEP- The Cougars are all the sudden in the Top 15... what? This has all the making of a "Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct" crazy type of year with a C-USA team in the Top 15. They win this week too. HOU 49-21

13. Iowa-vs. Arkansas State- We have covered the Hawkeyes a lot in the past couple of weeks and their defense will dominate in this one for sure. IOWA 48-3

15. Penn State-at Illinois- The Nittany Lions are out for revenge after last weekend and I think this will not be a problem even without Sean Lee. The Illini just dont have it this year. PSU 34-14

18. Georgia-SEE 4. LSU

20. BYU-vs. Utah State- The Fighting Chets are now into the grueling schedule of the MWC and meaningless non-conference games like this one. Should be a blowout. BYU 45-14

21. Ole Miss-at Vanderbilt- The Rebels had some time to find themselves after the tough loss to the Gamecocks and it should be for the better in another road game. OLE MISS 28-9

22. Michigan-at Michigan State- "Chuck's Corner Upset Alert" It has to be with the Spartans coming close against the Notre Dame and Wisconsin on the road in the last two weeks and now its a home game against their biggest rivals. Tate Forcier leads a late drive for the win. MICH 35-31

24. California-SEE 7. USC

25. Georgia Tech-at Mississippi State- Interesting game after the Bulldogs were a goal-line stand from beating LSU last weekend in Starkville. We all know that the SEC is better than the ACC and this will prove it. MISS STATE 27-21
