ALA2262 is taking Miss. State + 9 @ Auburn.

"And I will be in Wisconsin next week, so put me down for Mississippi State for Week 5."

like Duke as well. Miami was down at the half to Toledo, wound up burying them in the 2nd half.

Duke is a much better team this year than people thought they'd be an in a match-up of wits between David Cutcliffe and Mark Richt- I like Cutcliffe every single time.

I probably woulda taken Illinois if the spread were 9.5 or higher. Short week for Nebraska and Illinois coming off a bye. Dangerous game.

Same deal for ISU/Texas.

But I just couldn't pass up Duke at the same spread.

Northwestern

Man, there's a couple of prime games for the picking tomorrow night, but I will take a longer shot for bigger reward.  I thought long and hard about Testicle Tech (that's Ball State for you non-locals) at W Mich, but I will go with

Cal

if I read this correctly, the ESPN news scroll just mentioned that since 2000, ranked Wisconsin teams are 3-6 vs. the 'Cats

- I didn't know that but it would appear that we really do play up and down to the competition

- there's no other explanation as to why we often pull upsets out of our ass on a regular basis (e.g. Notre Dame, Iowa, etc.)
