College Football Weekend

Looks like we have some good games again this weekend, unlike last weekend. First just wanted to let you btown folks know I will be down watching the the FSU game with my dad and then I am going to hang around for the evening. FSU plays at 3:30 and I know Auburn and UF play later so I will see what you guys are up to. Let's get into some predictions:

FSU v Wake: FSU will win easily score prediction is 45-17. Wake has no defense and their offense is based off of rushing. It might be close at the end of 1Q, but I see no major problems here and FSU should have it's 2nd straight convincing win.

UF v UK: I expect this game to be much like the other UF games, but I think this is the best team you have faced all year offensively. I expect UF to win because it is at home and the defense is good. UF wins 24-21...close game prediction.

SC v AU: I hate to do this Alex, but I don't see Auburn pulling this one out after last weekend. I think this game is going to be awesome to watch just like Auburn's last game with Auburn coming up just a little short. 27-24.

FSU over Wake: 35-14

UF over UK: 28-17

AU over USCjr: 31-28

My AU pick is a definite homer pick. I think Auburn's D matches up better against the USC running game. We tend to play better against bigger backs. Garcia has been known to self destruct in games and he threw 2 picks against Furman. Also, one of the Furman WRs had a 200 yard game against USC.

However, none of this will matter if the AU offense starts like it did last week. But I think the offense has been held back by the coaches a little. I know that sounds foolish but it is also classic Auburn. Anyway, I am very nervous about the game and I am not confident but hoping for a W.

War Eagle!

I think you are all forgetting the big Colgate v Syracuse game this weekend. First time we played each other since 1987. The Hoo Doo will be out in force. Here is a little history on the game.

leave it to drew to turn making football predictions into a history lesson...

i'll take wake since nobody else will, fsu chokes.

gators roll, we're just getting up our head of steam carried over from tn.

auburn struggles and calls in their water boy who ends up being a tackling fiend. he strikes fear into sc and leads them to victory. also, his mother is cajun so watch out.

Just because Colgate has the oldest football team out of the lot, we have so much more "history".

So much for Colgate. I don't tend to watch college football but I was fortunate enough to turn the Auburn game on. That was a heck of a game. All the turnovers at the end were crazy! Anyway, hope everyone enjoyed their games. Looks like it turned out to be a good one for everyone.

Go Pats!
