They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

(1.) Pitt [they need to reassert themselves; a loss here defines their season]
(2.) Ohio State [Fields seems to be the real deal; or at least, the right local]
(3.) Michigan [I so badly wanted to go the other way here ... just couldn't do it]
(4.) Syracuse [it's @ College Park, tho; but New York isn't as far away as Austin]
(5.) Virginia Tech [although the Monarchs won last year; this one probably gets ugly]
(6.) Missouri [I really wanted to take the Mountaineers; but it's in Columbia]
(7.) Purdue [again, going with the home team]
(8.) Kansas State [if not, then it could be a bumpy season]
(9.) South Florida [the Bulls may be worse, but they have the personnel for their system]
(10.) Clemson [could be a decent game ... tho, almost had `em usually becomes uh-o!]
(11.) Colorado [beat `em last year in Lincoln]
(12.) Southern Miss [could be wrong; maybe the cowbells become a factor]
(13.) UCF [it likely wont be close; but who knows, maybe Kiffin paid someone]
(14.) North Texas [the Mustangs had a surprising win last week; but was it first game adrenaline]
(15.) BYU [ :lol: because it would be just too funny in Floppy Slop :lol: ]
(16.) Texas [ought to be game of the week]
(17.) Arkansas [I think Doss is right]
(18.) Arkansas State [same]
(19.) Stanford [however, the team below might be the best in California]
(20.) Fresno State [I think they miscued last week; and this game is @ home]
