Coach Rab Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 A lot of the top teams are in action this week. Unfortunately, none of the match-ups are that great for them. Look for some Heisman stats to be solidified before the real grind of the schedule begins. West Virginia at #5 Oklahoma 11:00 AM FOX OU not being in the top 4 of the AP poll is somewhat disappointing to me. I believe they look at Jalen Hurts performance and was like "He didn't look like the best this week." completely discrediting the defensive scheme of Texas. I believe Texas played them as well as you could have hoped on defense, but the running ability of Hurts made it impossible to overcome the Sooners. To me, West Virginia without Holgerson as its coach is not going to be a threat to OU. They won't outscore them... and I doubt they get many stops. Sooners by 20. #11 Auburn at Arkansas 11:00 SEC Network Auburn is probably the better team all around, but I expect the Razorbacks to find a way to beat the point spread. Auburn by 17. Iowa St at Texas Tech 11:00 FS1 I don't have anything but a gut feeling to back this prediction up. Texas Tech by 6. #2 LSU at Mississippi St 2:30 CBS Like I said above... look for Burrow to highlight his Heisman campaign again in a big win. Tigers by 20. #12 Oregon at #25 Washington 2:30 ABC I am not sure why Washington is ranked still. Oregon is better almost everyone and so I will pick them to win handily on the road. Ducks by 15. #18 Baylor at Oklahoma St 3:00 FOX You guys know I have been an advocate of this Baylor team this year. I honestly think they are the 3rd best team in this conference this year after OU and Texas. However, I think they are due for a slip up. That will come against a team that can get their crap together with sustained offensive drives... That will be this week. Oklahoma St by 3. #17 Arizona St at #13 Utah 5:00 PAC12 Network I don't think that I have the PAC12 Network or this would be on my watch list for sure. I believe we will see a defensive battle to the end. I give the edge to Utah for one reason... I DON'T TRUST FRESHMAN QBS TO STAY CONSISTENT. Just like we saw with Auburn, we will see Arizona St's Freshman QB struggle at times. Utes by 4. Kansas St at #15 Texas 6:00 LHN I may tune in to the first half of this one just to see Les Miles in action. But Kansas ranks last in offense in the B12... meaning they won't be able to keep pace. Texas by 24. #16 Michigan at #7 Penn State 6:30 ABC Have you ever seen a more defeated one loss team than Michigan? Their confidence levels in wins are saddening... I will go with Penn St just based on confidence alone. Nittany Lions by 12. Texas A&M at Ole Miss 6:30 SEC Network This one should be a breath of fresh air for the Aggies if they take care of business on the offensive end. The pieces will fall into place for the Aggie defense in a somewhat mild challenge for them. Where the struggles will come is if the offense sputters out again and again. I expect a big with for the Aggies in this one. Aggies by 20. Tennessee at #1 Alabama 8:00 ESPN Oh the unavoidable "fair" protected rivalry between Alabama and Tennessee... Do away with this. Bama by 40. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valhalla Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Oklahoma State is playing a ranked team so they will look good this week. Then next week they will lose to somebody like Kansas State. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're long overdue for a "OU loses a game they have absolutely no business losing" game. WVa wins by 21. Austin Kendall passes for 500 yards. After the game he b####-slaps Riley at midfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lobo97 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I'm still not sold on Baylor. After playing a few freshman teams to start the season, they've moved into playing JV teams the last few games, and nearly lost 2 of them. I think Ok State's offense will be too much for them. Then again, my pickems this year have looked as good as Lion's grammar, so Baylor by 40. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeanGreenDogs64 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 We beat Middle Tennessee in dramatic fashion. 33-30 2 mins left in the game we fumble the ball. MT gets the ball and scores a TD to tie. 30 seconds left they kickoff. We run the ball down to the 50. After a couple of losses, there is 10 seconds left. We complete a 30+ yard pass and have 4 seconds left. The kicker makes a chip shot fg as time expires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
