Hmm, I thought maybe I was going crazy. But at least I am not alone!
I was thinking LSU was sitting pretty to get chopped down this week as well.
Texas better not sleep on Zona.
Oklahoma St. better be ready for a huge step up in competition. You can have a good team and "relative" yourself into a loss due to expectation and adjustment.
*I hope Miami doesn't win. I like my Canes like I like my Panthers and Eagles...in the cellar! If Purdue and Air Force win, that would be on par with a good Eers win. Don't often get 4 birds with 1 stone.

I think Washington over LSU would require a miracle from above as well. I don't see this one being close. LSU by 28 or more points.

I have been bullish about Missouri this year. If there is an offense that will give Georgia fits this year, it's Missouri. I can't imagine the Tigers winning, but I can't imagine them losing by much.
Crazy Pick
UCF will beat the 14pt spread, but won't win over Ohio State

Vegas had that OSU line targeted from the beginning. The lock of the week was the Air Force +21, especially in light of that last score.
IIRC the upset specials on the Phil Steele blog this week were Missou over Georgia, and A&M over Fla.

Wisconsin @ Oregon State? Holy crap. The Beavers are pitching a shut out with 4 minutes to go in the game.
And as for an upset...Billybud's Noles had better watch out for Savannah State!

Arkansaa in trouble...up by 7 late in 4th and ULM has ball. QB Tyler Wilson has not played in 2nd half due to what is believed a concussion, at least 3 other Razorback defensive players injured, cornerback Tevin Mitchel on ground with a head/neck injury (it was ugly and he is Ark best corner). Putting him on board and stretcher. Silent stadium.
On top of it Ark is without starting fullback.
They may be depleted next week vs Bama...no way Ark beats Bama without Tyler Wilson. They may not beat ULM without him.

Kiero Small FB out four weeks and now backup FB is injured. They are dropping like flies. This is a worse case scenario.

Ark up by three, ULM fourth down and going for it. ULM have been going for fourth downs all night no matter how long.

ULM won. Ark has no players left to even go up against Bama. Season over for the Hogs now.
