The Big 5 College Football Games of Week 5


Already it seems like every week a handful of massive undefeated favorites get smacked in the face and knocked from the ranks of the unbeatens. This week the true testers come to those that already have one loss that desire to keep themselves in play for the BCS Title Game.

5. Wisconsin Badgers at Minnesota Golden Gophers
The depth in Week 5 is not too impressive. So we turn to undefeated 'Sconsin at Minnesota for Paul Bunyan's Axe. We're giving the slight edge to Minny and their new outdoor stadium.The Pick: Golden Gophers by 6

4. Auburn Tigers at Tennessee Volunteers
The Kiffikins gets another crack at this whole SEC thing when he gets to host Chizik and the War Eagle. Auburn has a nice win over WVU to be happy about, but I think they take a step back in Volunteer country. The Pick: Vols by 7

3. Louisiana State Tigers at Georgia Bulldogs
The Tigers have moved up the rankings all the way to 4 courtesy of losses from other squads. Now, a week after barely holding off Miss State, the Tigers head across the South to take on the suddenly hot Georgia Bulldogs. The Pick: UGA by 9

2. Southern California Trojans at Caifornia Berkeley Bears
We all know how USC likes to take naps against the basement dwellars of the Pac 10. We also know that Pete always has his team amped up for big games and despite Cal's destruction last week, this is a big game that USC is focused and ready to beat. The Pick: USC by 17.

1.Oklahoma Sooners at Miami Hurricanes
Still no Bradford means that if Bradford wants this season to endd like he had hoped he needs Landry Jones and his stupid mustache to step up big time and handle the resurgent U. Sure last week the U were knocked down a peg, but Oklahoma behind Landry Jones has yet to prove anything other than sputtering in the 2nd half against BYU. My thoughts, no QB = No W. The Pick: The U by 3.

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.
