I think Michigan/Notre Dame may be one of them. Notre Dame/USC and Fla. St./Miami definitely are in there.

I think we have to look at these games:

West Virginia @ Louisville
Michigan @ Ohio State
Ohio State @ Texas
Notre Dame @ USC
Arizona State @ USC
Here's one that nobody is talking about, how about Cal @ Tennessee? (if Cal is as good as advertised)
Florida, Alabama, and LSU @ Tennessee
Oklahoma vs. Texas
Florida State @ Miami

The Miami/Louisville game will be interesting...and important to both the Bg East and the ACC.

I agree, I've got Miami in that game by double-digits. Louisville might put up a tough fight. Miami defense is just flat out better, so they should have their way with Louisville. Even so, it's in Papa John's Stadium.

Ohio State-Michigan, an important game in deciding the big 10, likely won't have much to do with the championship picture unless Michigan beats Notre Dame and Ohio State beats Texas.

Louisville- Miami is important because if Louisville wins it will probably help the overall SOS in the Big East. (assuming Miami gets past their offensive problems) Even if Louisville doesn't win, if they play close, it will help the B-East in the voters eyes.

Cal and Tennessee for the same reasons. This is a good one.

Oklahoma and Texas is likely going to be for a championship spot, it may be one of the top 2 match ups this year.

LSU -Florida could be for the other spot. If Urban Meyer is going to make a mark, it should be this year. He has more talent on either side of the ball then he has had on any team that he has been head coach.

WVU and Louiseville -- will determine whether WVU makes it or not...Their only bump thoughout the year...

TEXAS and OSU -- The most important game of the year so far. They both have a chance of being in the game. Whereas Louisevile does not.
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.
