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.

(2.) Syracuse --- [ND is playing better, but the Dome this week isn't golden]
(3.) Auburn --- [maybe the home crowd can sort things out]
(4.) Miami --- [we lose this one and I'm going for a swim in one of Mountainman's cousin's distillery barrels]
(5.) Georgia --- [yeah, pretty obvious ... but this is a yearly staple]
(6.) Kansas State --- [winner of this game is vying for a rematch vs the Horned Frogs]
(7.) Toledo --- [I've not watched enough MAC games to know better, this season]
(8.) UCF --- [I was going to go the other way ... still might]
(9.) New Mexico State --- [Aggies won the Rio Grande and then got a week off due to postponement]
(10.) Navy --- [I actual do think they are a better team]
(11.) Western Kentucky--- [winner of this game takes the 2cnd place slot in CUSA]
(12.) SMU --- [the winner of this will jump up 3 conference spot, while the loser will be 3rd from the bottom]
(13.) South Carolina --- [O' what a difference a year can make]
(14.) Tennessee --- [if this were in Lexington I'd be compelled to go with the Wildcats]
(15.) Michigan --- [I can't see Mel pulling it off this year]
