I know Iowa State beat Iowa and they beat Texas last year but I'm not buying another loss by Texas to them.

Wow I know BYU is bad but Utah State? That's like tOSU losing to an instate lower division school.... oh wait that almost happened didn't it?

As bad as USC looked against ASU... Yeah okay I guess Arizona could win...

Wow, tough week....

ISU over Texas may be a bias pick, but I think it's a trap game for Texas. Red River Rivalry is next weekend.

Utah State likes to run the ball. BYU didn't do so hot stopping the run from Texas and Utah. and BYU just doesn't score a lot.

If GT only puts up 34 on NC State I will be pissed. Then again, if they only allow 14 I will be really happy.

 

[imnotgay2011]

Persa is available and will start.

so what is your Illinois vs. Northwestern prediction?

meow!!!

I hope you're right on the UGA/MSU game, but I think the game will be much closer than that.

MSU has a good defense that has not played to their potential this season. I expect them to step it up this Saturday.


Also, I believe that UGA will run a lot to control the time of possession. Which obviously won't yield a ton of points.

How could this be a trap game for Texas? They lost at home against Iowa State last year, you think the coaching staff is going to let them forget that? Coming off a 5-7 year I don't see how they could be taking any game for granted, so I have to completely disagree with you on that analysis.

Alabama will beat the gators bad.

Don't think coach Pete is going to stop at 45 after last years game. The Nevada fans were really rude after the game and i think Coach will let them run it up :target:

Because the fans were rude?

Maybe, but that would be pretty classless. Unless the opposing team or coach did something.

There will be a Giant Elephant Stomp in the Swamp

 

[iowajerms]

I was close with my Kentucky-LSU prediction

 

[iowajerms]

Not a good week for me.

 

[imnotgay2011]

and i would say you also lost the illinois/northwestern prediction. since you were waiting to see whether persa played (he did), I'm assuming you were picking northwestern.

northwestern lost and so did you.

meow!!!
