Auburn fans are preeeeetttyyy confident. I will be Geauxing for The Tigers, for sure.

Not sure who I think is going to win any of these games, tho.

I think LSU-Auburn will be the only interesting game of the bunch.

As much as I want Michigan to win, they are just another overrated Big 10 Team. I don't see Florida nor USC having much trouble.

Not according to this highly-scientific formula:

Big East < Pac-10 <<< Big 12 << Big 10 <<<<<<<<<<<<< SEC

Big 12 is better than the Big 10 in my book, the ACC sneaks up into second every so often. The SEC is the best, but due to that they never win the title, which sucks for them

I do think Oregon will beat Oklahoma, possibly quite handily after OU has played the past two weeks at home.
As a homer, I expect Nebraska to keep it under the spread and possibly lead after the 1st half. The only way my Huskers win is if they score defensively at least once, don't turn the ball over and run and pass for atleast 200yds. I personally see it 35-24 or 34-21, with USC scoring a touchdown or two in the fourth to pull away.

I have to say the Big 10 is way better than the Big 12 - pac 10 is probably better than the Big 12 most years. Plus where is the ACC in this matrix?

All I have to say is that the Big 12 has had three titles in the last decade, while the Big Ten has had two. The Big 12 has played for a title six times during that period. The Pac-10 is a one horse team, and without USC the past few years, they'd have a hard time beating out the Big East. Since the Big 12 and Pac-10 have faced each other in the Holiday Bowl for the past Eight years, The Big 12 is 5-3 with at least three supposed upset wins.
I stated the ACC is usually 3rd, but sometimes 2nd.
The Big Ten always have atleast three 9-3 teams ranked in the top 25 and they usually get smoked in the bowl games, especially when it is against Nebraska in three of the past six Alamo Bowl games.

BTW, I think LSU should beat Auburn, if it was at a neutral site, I'd pick them big.

I think the Big 12 and Pac-10 are down compared to a couple of years ago. The Big 10 has consistently been mediocre.

Auburn 23-LSU 17
Florida 24-Tennessee 20

Everyone on CFN believes USC will win, but won't cover
Notre Dame is predicted by most to win and cover, the same goes for Auburn over LSU.

USC 38-Nebraska 28

This is basically the prediction I agree with most. Here is the final analysis for th game from CFN:

This will be Nebraska's coming out party. The offense will put up big numbers and the defense will come up with a gem ... for three quarters. USC will make a few adjustments and will hit just enough home runs in the fourth quarter to get by with a tough, tough win.

I was gonna ask if I should take Nebraska to cover in that game, but then I remebered that you have no objectivity whe it comes to Nebraska. (not your fault, I'm the same way)

I'm actually surprised they're predicting that close of a game. They haven't beaten UCLA in 6 years.

I think Nebraska is favored by way too much, but I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't smoke Troy bad. I just think that Troy played well against both Georgia Tech and Florida State, so they should be able to play as well against Nebraska.
I think the only thing that helps Nebraska out is that they have a slightly better ground game then both Florida State and Georgia Tech do.

I guess he knew better. :drink: :thumbsup:


Now, I realize I'm taunting. But, it's pretty likely that UW will finish in the bottom 3rd of the Pac10, so I have to take the opportunity when it's available. You can taunt back when we lose to Stanford.

I should have known better then to doubt my Cornhuskers at home, they are usually golden for covering the spread at home. The kicked some serious ass tonight.
