5. Washington Huskies vs. Southern Cal Trojans in LA
I'm just as surprised as everyone else that the Huskies are 4-1, while I'm not going to pretend that I think Willingham can pull off a victory in LA, I'm just saying that there's a small chance considering how poorly the Trojans have played even in winning these past few weeks. The Pick: Trojans by double digits, eventually the Trojans will wake up from their slumber I think it starts now.
4. Oregon Ducks vs. California Bears in Berkeley
Here's the battle ground to see who will challenge USC for Pac 10 supremacy. The Bears seem to be back in a groove since their beatdown on Rocky Top, while the Ducks have played well since their sudo win against the Sooners. The Pick: Oregon sneaks out another close one on the legs and arm of Dixon.
3. The Red River Shootout: Texas Longhorns vs. Oklahoma Sooners
Usually the most important game of the weekend they are playing it in, this year however it is not even the 2nd. Why? Zero National title implications. Neither Oklahoma nor Texas have a legitimate shot of making the title game even if they run through the remainder of their games. Neither has the schedule strength, to qualify as the best 1 loss team in the country. The Pick: I'm going with Texas with little confidence as I seriously wonder if Mack Brown can beat Oklahoma without Vince Young
1A. Lousiana State Tigers vs. Florida Gators in Gainesville
Really little differentiating the two SEC games in importance. Florida vs. LSU may have slightly more important National Title implications, but UT vs. UGA is more important to the SEC East totum pole. LSU needs to prove it can score against a good defense as their scoring ineptitude vs. Auburn is not going to cut it against Urban Myers squad. I don't think Florida will have a big hiccup at home this year I think they'll wait to lay an egg in Auburn. The Pick: Florida in a slugfest by 6
1. Tennessee Volunteers vs. Georgia Bulldogs in Athens
UGA needs this game to keep pace with Florida and Tennessee needs to avoid being swept by their SEC East competetion. Here's the issue that lies with Georgia, they're rushing their QB Joe Terapolish back into the fire this week. While it's probably better than the flaming Cox they've been throwing out there from week to week, I don't think he gets the job done. The Pick: Tennessee has something to prove they take it by double digs
