The Big 5 College Football Games of Week 3


In week 3 there is no heavyweight slugfest but there is many games of intrigue.

5. Nebraska Cornhuskers at Virginia Tech Hokies
Last time the two met the Hokies cleaned up the Huskers in Nebraska, this time the black shirts head into Blacksburg in search of revenge. Nebraska looks to throw their name into the top 25 hat while the Hokies look to get their 2009 campaign straightened out for another trip to the Orange bowl. The Pick: Hokies by 6

4. South California Trojans at Washington Huskies
As I mentioned in the Blogpoll ROundtable, I think this weekends game between USC and Washington will be incredibly interesting. USC continually loses to someone they should easily beat. They just won their biggest OOC game, so if there is going to be a game they sleepwalk through it might very well be this one, especially with Barkley banged up. In the end they probably still win. The Pick: USC 10

3. Tennessee Volunteers at Florida Gators
Oh the humor that will likely be provided by this game. The Kiffikins just lost their big home OOC game against UCLA. Now they get to go on the road to the Swamp where all the Gator players want to gobble them up and chew off the meat on their bones. The Vols are screwed. The Pick: Kiffins by -40

2. Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Miami Hurricanes
Miami opened up their season with a big ACC win over FSU while GaTech followed up in week 2 with a big win over Clemson. The two are vying for a spot in the ACC title game this year and both will have a massive desire to win this matchup. The Pick: Yellow Jackets by 6.

1. Florida State Seminoles at Brigham Young Cougars
Why is this the biggest game of the week? Because in all honesty, if a non-BCS team is ever going to crash the BCS title game party, it will be this years BYU. Why? They are already have a win over Oklahoma who could potentially run the table. They could have a win over ACC Champion FSU, if they get their act together. Combine that with the high preseason rankings of TCU and Utah and theirs a chance BYU can crash the partyy if they go undefeated. The Pick: BYU by 7.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big

Ranking the New York Jets Historical Helmets

There's no way you can't go with the Helmet they won the Super Bowl in. You just can't. Next, I really don't understand why they don't where the helmet with the Jet as their throwback uniforms. That helmet is awesome. Then I'm going with the Helmets from the 80s because it's the classic feel and the white face mask is 10 times better than the black one. And the rankings continue until you get to... The Titans Helmet. I hate everything about those Titan uniforms. The Helmets are boring and the colors are GOD awful. Navy blue and Mustard? What the hell is that. Disgusting. If they wore those unis when I was a kid I'd probably be a Giant fan, and be much happier with my life in football.
