This weeks picks:
#11 Central Michigan over Boston College... I'm calling for the upset of sorts. You better recognize the Chips, they should win the MAC easily.
Auburn over #29 Mississippi... another upset of sorts. The Tigers are almost ranked in my poll, they may have figured out their offensive slide.
#19 South Carolina over Tennessee... I know they played Alabama close, but they really blew that game, which should have been Alabama's loss.
#3 Florida over Georgia... I think they've learned their lesson and the Gators should not struggle again until the SEC Championship.
#27 California over Arizona State... not sure what was happening to the Bears earlier this year, but they are Holiday Bowl bound.
#13 Oregon over #12 Southern Cal... I think this Trojan team is a year away. That being said, Oregon will lose to Oregon State later on.
#25 Miami (FL) over Wake Forest... didn't Wake used to be competitive? That last play overtime loss to Clemson was the only reason I didn't go 10-0 last week.
#30 Wisconsin over Purdue... you're making me pick this game? Is there any doubt? Yeah, remember, Purdue dropped Ohio State.
#31 Texas Tech over #28 Kansas... Kansas is about to learn how Missouri feels, a three-game losing streak puts a serious damper on any championship talk.
#4 Texas over #16 Oklahoma State... my National Champ pick is looking pretty unstoppable, aren't they?

Last Week: 9-1 (49 pts.)
Season: 55-25 (328 pts., 89th percentile)
