Kansas St. @ TCU ( TCU)
Ohio St. @ Michigan St. ( Michigan St.)
Baylor @ Oklahoma ( OU)
Norte Dame @ Arizona St ( ASU)
Oregon @ Utah ( Utah)

I'll take KState & Oregon. Baylor/OU is a toss up for me. I'm leaning OU but if it involved $$$ I'd go with Baylor.

I think Alabama/LSU will be a 4 quarter game but I believe we'll pull through in the end.

I believe TCU will beat Kansas State at home.

Ohio State upsets Michigan State at East Lansing (you're welcome, B1GTide).

Baylor will finish off Oklahoma in Norman.

Arizona State will clobber Notre Dame, ending any playoff fantasy for the Fighting Irish.

I'm pulling for Utah, but ultimately Oregon will be too tough.

Kstate aside from Alabama will have a murderer's row in the next 3 weeks. they get TCU, West Virginia and Baylor all on the road!! :eek2:

I like them this year and they should have beaten auburn, but I see them dropping 2 of the 3 games ahead of them, if not all 3. the 3 teams they will face have lots of offensive power and I don't know if Kstate can keep up. their defense is very solid and sound , but will it be enough?

OSU is getting better and will be a good game, but I believe Spartans are just too sound on offense/defense to lose at home.
Baylor is not a very good team on the road, OU would love to spoil any chance BU has for the playoffs.
I agree ASU is the better team, the Irish luck will end.
Utah can make a big statement with a win against the ducks and dash their dreams for the playoffs.

Kansas State is capable of winning game. I think TCU is over rated. Ohio St will win. ND will lose. Utah has a way of pulling upset over Oregon.
The game against LSU will not be close. We have new offense, new coaches, they do not know what we will do.

I hope you are correct (except K State vs TCU, I hope K State wins that one).
I think Baylor may well beat OU and I believe Oregon will defeat Utah.

TCU needed 5 WV turnovers in the WV end of the field - several in the red zone - to eke out a last second field goal win over WV. TCU did not impress me. I expect KState to win their matchup.

I'll be pulling for AzState, Utah, & OK.

I have been busy and have not had a chance to look at the games and this is a really good looking Saturday.

I think other than our game the best game is KSU and TCU and I see TCU winning in a close one. I agree with you SJC on all the games except for Oregon will beat Utah.

Bama over LSU comfortably.
K State over TCU ... I'm pretty impressed with the K State defense. I wasn't impressed with TCU vs W. Virginia.
Mich St over OSU in a good game. I hope OSU wins just because I like reading B1GTide's posts.
Oklahoma over Baylor just because Baylor should never win in Norman. That'd be like Vandy winning in Tuscaloosa.
Notre Dame over Az State. Sorry guys, the Irish luck rivals that of Auburn.
Oregon beats Utah comfortably.

You have LSU as the only one losing at home. Add OU and Utah.

Yes I do for the obvious reasons. as far as Utah and OU at home winning, I just get a funny feeling that Oregon will lay an egg at Utah, we can all hope anyway and have the love fest for the ducks to end once and for all!! IMO, OU would love to ruin Baylor's chances for the playoffs esp. with OU completely out of contention.

Bama--we're much better than they are
Oklahoma-They'll open up their running game and control tempo.
Michigan State-Because they're at home
TCU--Too much speed on offense
Arizona State-Maybe the biggest blowout of the day
Utah--Because they always beat a couple of teams they shouldn't, as we unfortunately know for a fact.
