I am flat embarrassed that I picked BYU over SDSU in this one. I was smelling upset in this game until the teams took the field. It's still close, but you can just tell that SDSU is better across the boards. They are more athletic, they've got all the momentum as of right now, and BYU's offense is just down right anemic. Here's hoping I show better judgement on my other upset picks.

"Trailing 14-7 at halftime, Notre Dame forged a methodical comeback. It shut the Cougars and quarterback Riley Nelson out in the second half. Meanwhile, ND fought back with just enough offense to avoid the upset."

Same here. Which is why I gave it only 5 Confidence Points.

Any of you see the halftime commentary about Saban? "If you could choose between having Nick Saban or the Nation's #1 recruit which would you want?" And Jesse Palmer said, without hesitation... "Nick Saban! That way you get both!"

Bama would beat BYU by 6 or 7 TDs. That BYU-ND game was at ND.

BYU was favored by a field goal. On a separate note, good pick!
