This week in College Football!

This coming weekend is another big week in college football and I am going to go over the top 25 match-ups and pick my winners for each game

I didnt get a chance to blog in time for tonights match-up between #21 Auburn and Mississippi State which Auburn won

Friday
#23 West Virginia vs Marshall   My pick is West Virginia. They take care of Marshall with no problem. They have beaten Marshall every time they have played them by over 17 points. Marshall played Ohio State last week and looked horrible. They will drop their 2nd game to a ranked opponent to start the season.

San Jose St. vs #11 Wisconsin  My pick is Wisconsin. The Badgers win this match-up easily. San Jose st opened up the season last week against defending National Champs Alabama and got pounded and will get stomped again this weekend.

#15 Georgia Tech vs Kansas  My pick is Georgia Tech. Kansas Football is struggling and are in a rebuilding stage. They lost to North Dakota State 6-3 last week. They are young at QB and just dont have what it takes to win against Georgia Tech this weekend.

#22 Georgia vs #24 South Carolina  My pick is in a sort of upset is Georgia. The Bulldogs will go into South Carolina and beat the Gamecocks. Stephen Garcia from South Carolina will keep the game close but Georgia's offense will win in the long run and win the game.

South Florida vs #8 Florida  My pick is the Gators. Coming off a struggled victory against Miami (OH). I think Florida comes back and looks a lot better and takes care of South Florida. The play of QB John Brantley is going to be huge though.

Idaho vs #6 Nebraska   My pick is Nebraska. They win big against Idaho, its a home game for the Cornhuskers and they will pound a very weak Idaho team.

James Madison vs #13 Virginia Tech  My pick is VT. After a heart breaking loss at home against Boise State the Hookies look to rebound against a weaker opponent James Madison and i think they will win big.

Iowa St. vs #9 Iowa  My pick is Iowa. With the Cy-hawk Trophy on the line in this rivalry game Iowa should take care of Iowa State with ease.

#17 Florida St. Vs #10 Oklahoma My pick is an upset is #17 Florida State. Oklahoma barely squeaked by a Utah State team last week and i think they get upset this weekend at home. With a young QB Landry Jones, i think he is going to struggle and Christian Ponder will have another huge game as will Ty Jones. So you heard it here first. Upset Florida State wins!

#12 Miami(FL) vs #2 Ohio State  My pick is Ohio State. They Buckeyes are rolling right now and will continue to against the Canes. I think Miami will put up a little fight but they will have no answer for Terrelle Pryor. He will have another huge game and dominate their defense. Ohio State will pull away in the second half and win the game.

UNLV vs #20 Utah  My pick is Utah. They have won 13 of the last 15 against The Rebels and will make it 14 of 16 this weekend. Utah is coming off hot with their upset win against Pitt last weekend and will beat UNLV Saturday.

#18 Penn State vs #1 Alabama  My pick is the Crimson Tide although they most likely will be missing the Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram for the second straight game. McElroy will lead Alabama past a tough Penn State team in this weeks game of the week. It wont be a blow out that's for sure but will be a very close game.

Tennessee Tech Vs #4TCU  My pick is TCU. The Horned Frogs after a winning a close fought battle against Oregon State will take care of Tennessee Tech fairly easy at home.

Wyoming vs #5 Texas  My pick is Texas. Texas is still going through the transition of have a new QB in Garrett Gilbert but will run most of their offense through Tre' Newton who scored 3 TD's last week against Rice. Wyoming wont put up much of a fight and Texas will win in a route.

#7 Oregon Vs Tennessee  My pick is Oregon. The Ducks coming off an incredible 72-0 Blowout of New Mexico travel to Tennessee for the first time to take on the Vols in front of a packed house. Tennessee is coming off their own blowout win over Tennessee Martin where they won 50-0. The Ducks high powered offense will be just too much for the Volunteers to handle. LaMichael James will be in the lineup after serving his 1 game suspension. Between him and Kenjon Barner the ducks will win big. My Prediction is 42-24

#14 Arkansas vs Louisiana- Monroe  My pick is Arkansas. Their offense is looking really good right now and will continue to roll against a very weak Louisiana- Monroe team.

#19 LSU vs Vanderbilt  My Pick is the Tigers. LSU will win this game with ease. Vanderbilt just wont be able to keep up.

Virginia vs #16 USC  My pick is USC. Coming off a victory against Hawaii the Trojans offense looked like a USC high powered offense. Matt Barkley isn't an ordinary Soph. QB. He looks like a Veteran. Although USC is going to have to improve their defense a little bit, they gave up 36 points to a Hawaii team last week. But the Trojans win big in their home opener.

#25 Stanford vs UCLA  My pick is Stanford. Behind Andrew Luck at QB Stanford should take care of UCLA easily. It will give a good first look at 2 Pac 10 teams playing each other. But Stanford should win fairly easy and Luck will have another huge game.

These are my picks for the week. Please feel free to give feedback!!! Leave some comments!
