So here we are. Week 11 of 15 and we have a pretty good idea who the pretenders and contenders are. Last week taught us the following:
- regardless of conference, Colorado will always be a recreation league school.
- Taylor Martinez is a poor man's Landry Jones and the Huskers will never win the B1G one with him at the helm.
- Oklahoma Sooners have yet to put four quarters of football together in one game.
- That if I go to sleep in the 4th quarter in the game of the century, God will make sure and wake me up with an earthquake or some natural disaster
Here's what I looking out for on this week's games.
11:00 The Train Wreck Bowl #19 Nebraska at #12 Penn State ESPN
None of us will admit to it, but we all like to watch a good train wreck. We'll cover our eyes but always end up peeking through. Well here's your chance to see it in football. Penn State comes into this one ranked #1 in their side of the B1G with the 100th ranked scoring offense in the country going up against a pretty porous defense on the Husker side allowing almost 350 yards per game. Penn state's #3 scoring D will get tested with a steady dose of the #13 Rushing O from the huskers. Neither team plays from behind too well with the 88th(PSU) and 101st (NU) ranked passing offenses but when they do, the Nittany Lions are more efficient. Penn State front four is 12th and 28th in Tackles for Loss and Sacks in the country.
Line: Nebraska favored by 3 on the road. I think they win this one for Joe Pa with the D of Penn State making the Difference.
2:30 #20 Auburn at #15 Georgia CBS
Like they say in College Station, you can't spell Defense without SEC. The Dawgs are 7th in total defense while the Tigers think they are in the Big 12 with an option defense that's 75th in the country allowing an average of 27 points per game. Neither offense is really worth talking about other than the Dawgs are quite a bit better and more consistent with Aaron Murray at QB they average scoring about 34 per game with a fairly even run pass mix. The Tigers have only won one road game at South Carolina this year. All others have been losses with an average margin of 24 points.
Line: The Dawgs are giving 11.5 at home. I'm taking the Dawgs to cover that even after both teams had a bye week last week.
7:00 #7 Oregon at #4 Stanford ABC
This one is really strength on strength with a little Luck on the side. Oregon's #5 rushing offense vs Stanford's #3 rushing defense. Oregon's passing offense (#78) isn't much to speak of but Stanford's #58 pass efficiency D could make them look pretty two dimensional.
Stanford averages 48 points per game on offense while Oregon averages 46 (40 on the road). Both front four on the D side are really good and will make the QB's think.
Line: Stanford is giving 3.5 at home. I think the smart Tree Cardinals are too disciplined to fall for Oregon's trickeration.
Quick Kicks
- Will Texas Tech Sand Aggies end up being the State Champions of Oklahoma? (Ok St -20)
- Will the Ole Ball Coach annihilate his Alma Mater or is he playing for the AD job? (SC - 2.5)
- Will Iowa continue their attempt to sneak in the back door of a conference championship with another surprise win at home over Sparty? (Sparty -2.5)
- Will the Hilltoppers get past the 50 against LSU?
- regardless of conference, Colorado will always be a recreation league school.
- Taylor Martinez is a poor man's Landry Jones and the Huskers will never win the B1G one with him at the helm.
- Oklahoma Sooners have yet to put four quarters of football together in one game.
