#15 Florida Gators at #1 LSU Tigers
Florida having their freshman backup QB starting today against the best defense in the nation. If Florida can win the turnover battle they might have a shot at this game, but it could get ugly.
Prediction: LSU 31 Florida 10
#2 Oklahoma Sooners vs #12 Texas Longhorns (in Dallas)
With the emergence of McCoy/Shipley 2.0 the Longhorns are on a roll this year. However Oklahoma is just too good of a team. Look for Landry Jones and Ryan Broyles to torch the injury depleted Longhorn secondary.
Prediction: Oklahoma 45 Texas 20
#17 Auburn Tigers at #10 Arkansas Razorbacks
Despite all the talent the Tigers lost they have managed to play very well this season and their only loss is to a top 10 ranked Clemson. Arkansas bounced back after a tough loss to Alabama and torched A&M. This will be a close game and look for a shootout. Arkansas needs to shut down the Auburn running game, while Auburn needs to slow down the Razorback passing attack. When push comes to shove, Auburn might have the more complete team.
Prediction: Auburn 34 Arkansas 31
Ohio State Buckeyes at #19 Nebraska Cornhuskers
This is going to be one ugly game. Without Terrelle Pryor, Dan Herron, DeVier Posey, and Mike Adams the Buckeye offense has been awful this season. But their defense has been very solid this year. The Huskers have been inconsistent on both sides of the ball and are coming off a big time beat down in Madison. The Huskers should win their first home game as a member of the B1G Ten, but these are games that they have dropped in previous years.
Prediction: Ohio State 14 Nebraska 24
Missouri Tigers at Kansas State Wildcats
Kansas State shocked many by knocking off Baylor last weekend and improve to a perfect 4-0. Missouri is still transitioning with a new QB in James Franklin. Kansas State has played well behind a good defense and dual threat QB Collin Klein.
Prediction: Missouri 28 Kansas State 31
Upset Pick
#23 Texas A&M Aggies at Texas Tech Red Raiders
The Aggies are coming off of two losses where they had the lead at halftime in each game. Last week Arkansas torched the Aggies threw the air. So seeing Texas Tech and their "Air Raid" attack isn't a welcome sign.
Prediction: A&M 35 Tech 42
Looking back to last week
Last week wasn't a great week here going 3-3 correctly picking Wisconsin over Nebraska, Clemson over VaTech, and Alabama over Florida. But Auburn's win over South Carolina, Arkansas over A&M and Texas beating Iowa State.
