Well, I picked the winners for all of the games involving FBS teams. So far, I'm 14-2, missing on UTEP-Buffalo and Rice-SMU. I thought I'd throw out my picks for some of the more competitive games today, as well as teams that I know you are interested in.
LSU 38, Appalachian State 24 - This won't be a close game, though I am excited to watch Armante Edwards. Maybe LSU will take it easy on him...not likely.
Michigan 24, Utah 17 - Michigan still has a defense. That defense will create turnovers, and that will be the difference.
Pitt 35, Bowling Green 24 - While I'm not on the Pitt bandwagon, I think this will be the best season that Wannstedt will have since he got there.
BYU 45, Northern Iowa 13 - It will be close early, 0-0, but a few minutes into the game it will be 14-0.
Wyoming 31, Ohio 17 - Welcome to the Rockies, Frank. If you want to beat Wyoming, play them in November. But who would go to Laramie in purpose on November?
TCU 27, New Mexico 24 - Too bad this game isn't later in the season. TCU makes a statement on the road in game 1.
Clemson 28, Alabama 17 - Too many freshmen, too big a game for Alabama. Oh, and too much speed for Clemson.
California 31, Michigan State 24 - Can Cal turn it around this year. No, but the mid-tier Pac 10 teams are better than the mid-tier Big 10 ones.
Missouri 38, Illinois 21 - Illinois is over-hyped. Missouri might be too, but they'll still take this one fairly easily. All they have to do is stop Juice from running the ball. Don't ask Ohio State how to do that, they have NO CLUE.
Oregon 42, Washington 21 - very few teams can go in to Autzen Stadium and win. Washington is no where near the elite teams that could actually do it.
UNLV 17, Utah State 7 - two of the worst teams in football collide. If no one saw it, did it really happen?
Colorado 28, CSU 27 - CSU has a way of getting up for this game, even when the talent disparity is huge. They still can't win in the stadium that Obama christened with his presence this week. McCain-Palin, 2008.
Rutgers 24, Fresno State 21 - Bye-bye BCS. Bye-bye Herbstreit endorsements.
Tennesse 34, UCLA 17 - Good coaching matchup, bad player matchup. A third string QB against an SEC defense? Not good. 17 might be an optimistic look.
