ALMOST made the cut...

Florida vs. #1 Georgia (Anything can happen in this game, but Billy Napier's Gator Nation not up to the task against UGGA in 2022... and DON"T call it World's Largest Cocktail Party ANYMORE!!!)

Wake Forest at Louisville (Cards are quietly above .500 and only a 3.5 home dawg at present.... HHHMMMMMMM???)

#14 Utah at Washington State (Utes sit in good shape for PAC 12 title, but must be on upset alert in Wazzu as they continue to celebrate that W over USC)

#15 Mississippi at Texas A&M (Joey Freshwater laid an egg in Baton Rouge last weekend. ONLY a 2 point fav against Jimbo's sub-.500 NIL All-Stars in College Station)

Oklahoma at Iowa State (Boomer Sooner and Cyclones trying to find bowl eligibility any way possible)

  4. After discussing things with Ryan's sig other, I'm going with her suggestions in hopes of getting a few more correct this week.
    NC State - VT is off a bye week too, but 27-7
    BYU - don't trust either team, but I'll say 31-21 Cougars.
    tOSU - they are what we thought they were. 41-17.
    Cuse - Orange tough at home. 28-21.
    Cinci - quietly having a nice season. 34-17.
    Okla St - takes names in little Apple. 42-21.
    Coastal - I have nothing to add. 34-31.
    Tennessee - not for the faint hearted. 38-27.
    Texas Tech - don't sleep on these guys. 30-27.
    U*NC - I hate it, but that division is even worse than BIG west. Someone will be the tallest dwarf.

    Thanks to Ryan and all the best to everyone. Have a great weekend. Go Pack!

  5. NC State, but they will continue to struggle on offense, maybe a close one.

  6. NC STATE 26 VIRGINIA TECH 10:
    Pack D will rule the night on ESPN's Thursday game of the week, but it will be interesting to see if Jack Chambers will be able to generate some offense. Hokies are down this year, but coming off a respectable 20-14 defeat to THE U. Great D and low TOs equal a W for Pack.

    Two teams kinda headed in opposite directions at present. Purple Pirates come in to Provo with back-to-back Ws over Memphis and UCF, whilst Cougs have dropped 3 straight, including having their doors blown of by a good Flames team. It's make or break time for BYU as they have a late 4th quarter rally against the travel weary boyz from G-Vegas.

  11. OHIO STATE 41 PENN STATE 23:
    Might be close in first half, but tOSU has best offense in country and a an underrated defense. See what Michigan did to PSU. James Franklin only 2-19 vs. Top 10 teams.

    SYRACUSE 27 NOTRE DAME 24:
    Can the Orange bring the same intensity as they did in Tigertown last weekend? Give Tucker more touches, and they get the dub over Irish.

  12. CENTRAL FLORIDA 23 CINCINNATI 20:
    Knights are a tough out at home, Gus Malzahn has UCF ready to bounce back from ECU loss with a balanced attack over Bearcats.

    OKLAHOMA STATE 38 KANSAS STATE 31:
    Adrian Martinez is banged up for Wildcats. If Pokes can contain The Deuce, Spencer Sanders should take over in 2nd half.

    COASTAL CAROLINA 26 MARSHALL 23:
    Thundering Herd have a good D, but can't throw the ball. CC started was 6-0 before getting whupped by ODU. CC bounces back with a TOUGH roadie in the West Virginia mountains.

    TENNESSEE 44 KENTUCKY 31:
    Some think this will be a Vols blowout, some think close. I'm taking the middle road. Will Levis is back for Cats and should have a great QB battle with Hendon Hooker. WR Cedric Tillman is back for Vols (whether he should be or not), and he will be a difference maker for Rocky Top.

    TEXAS TECH 33 BAYLOR 29:
    Bears were once a Top 10 team in September. Red Raiders are tough at home and have quite the QB trio of Slough (back from injury), Smith, and freshman Morton. Take TT in Lubbock in an important game moving towards bowl eligibility for both teams.

    PITTSBURGH 36 NORTH CAROLINA 33:
    Panthers have been a bit disappointing this season, but this team has some talent and Par Narduzzi is a good coach. Drake Maye is the real deal for UNC, but Heels have been living a charmed life with that woeful (if maybe somewhat improved D). Narduzzi will put enough pressure on Maye to make a difference, and Panthers will be able to score points. Heels are more than due for an L after 3 point escapes at THE U and Duke.

    JUST FOR FUN...

    JACKSON STATE 51 SOUTHERN 48:
    JSU had lost 8 straight to Southern before Prime Time beat em last year. Neon Deion's, son wins a shootout today as JSU gets two in row. I would LOVE to see some Dabo vs. Deion match-ups in the ACC in the near future!!!

    HAVE A GREAT PRE-HALLOWEEN WEEKEND!!!
