NCAA picks week 10

Getting to the last few weeks of the college football season, and unfortunately with no playoff system, there are only a handful of teams that still have a chance to win the championship. Unless something crazy happens, two of the following teams will be in the title game: LSU, Bama, Ok St, Stanford, and Boise St. Right now I have a feeling that Oklahoma beats Ok St, Oregon beats Stanford, and Boise St will get screwed again for a one-loss team to play the LSU-Bama winner for the title. I hope that doesn't happen, but we'll see. That's my rant for the week, now onto my picks.

Saturday, November 5th

#2 Alabama 31, #1 LSU 16 - I think this game will not live up to the hype that's surrounding it. I think Nick Saban is the best coach in college football and with the game at home Alabama will make virtually no mistakes and force a couple turnovers against Jarrett Lee and Bama will roll.

#3 Oklahoma St 54, #14 Kansas St 31
#4 Stanford 38, Oregon St 13
#5 Boise St 62, UNLV 13
#6 Oklahoma 42, Texas A&M 27
#7 Arkansas 34, #9 South Carolina 17
#8 Oregon 42, Washington 31
#10 Nebraska 27, Northwestern 6
#13 Houston 61, UAB 24
#15 Michigan 27, Iowa 17
#17 Michigan St 41, Minnesota 10
#18 Georgia 45, New Mexico St 3
#19 Arizona St 41, UCLA 13
#20 Wisconsin 44, Purdue 17
#21 Texas 34, Texas Tech 31
#24 West Virginia 34, Louisville 27
#25 SMU 38, East Carolina 34

Arizona 27, Utah 23 - For as bad as they've been this year, Arizona is a much better team at home, and they have an NFL quarterback leading their team in Nick Foles. Arizona's defense is terrible, but if they stack the box and prevent John White from beating them, Utah's only chance will be if Jon Hays can lead them to a win, and I just don't think he can do that, even against a bad defense. I hope I am wrong, but when John White gets shut down, Utah's offense has been non existent this year.

Hawaii 41, Utah St 31 - I'd love to see the Aggies pull this off, but I think going down to the island will be too much for them.

My Heisman Top 5

2. Trent Richardson
3. Kellen Moore
4. Brandon Weeden
5. Russell Wilson
