College Football Picks: Week 11
November 14th 2009 15:35
It is November...conferences are winding down, and bowl positions are being determined. Last week, my beloved Iowa Hawkeyes went down, opening the door for the TCU Horned Frogs to break through. It is frustrating...but still fun.
Anyway, on to the picks:
Indiana at #19 Penn State:
After their loss to Ohio State last week, the Lions are on the outside looking in when it comes to a Rose Bowl birth. However, they can still go someplace warm on New Years Day if they win out. They start here.
Indiana 10 Penn State 31
Michigan at #21 Wisconsin:
Rich Rod is in trouble in Ann Arbor. The Wolverines have been in position to become bowl eligible for weeks...but they just keep losing. Now its either win today...or against rival Ohio State. Neither happens.
Michigan 17 Wisconsin 28
#13 Houston at UCF:
Can you guess who the nation's leading passer is. Tim Tebow? Colt McCoy? nope...Its Houston's Case Keenum. He continues his tear against UCF.
Houston 44 UCF 13
#1 Florida at South Carolina:
Oh the intrigue of Spurrier facing his old team...except that Florida is much better.
Florida 31 SCU 21
#18 Arizona at California:
Arizona has been the surprise of the Pac-10. Cal has been the crushing disappointment. Now, without Jahvid Best for the Bears...I expect Arizona to run wild.
Arizona 31 Cal 24
#23 Stanford at #11 USC:
USC will not be BCS bound this year for a change. They are still crawling their way to try and get a New Years Day bowl. Stanford has been a shock...they are now bowl eligible. Their luck will run out against the Trojans.
Stanford 13 USC 27
Notre Dame at #8 Pittsburgh:
Charlie Weis, prepare your resume
Notre Dame 24 Pitt 37
Arizona State at #14 Oregon:
Lagarret Blount returns for Oregon after his week 1 punch at Boise State. The Ducks can still smell roses and a showdown against Arizona next week. They make mince meat out of the Devils:
ASU 10 Oregon 31
#15 Iowa at #10 Ohio State:
The winner of this game will go to the Rose Bowl. Iowa had their magical season crushed last week when not only they lost to Northwestern...they lost QB Ricky Stanzi for the year. Ohio State is finding their stride...which is bad news for the Hawks.
Iowa 10 Ohio State 24
#16 Utah at #4 TCU:
Who doesn't love the Horned Frogs of TCU. This is their last hurdle to an undefeated season. Last year, they fell 13-10 at Utah. They get their revenge this time.
Utah 14 TCU 32
Upset Special:
#12 Miami at North Carolina:
The ACC is as schizo as any conference in the country, with Miami leading the way. I say that this week, they fall at UNC.
Miami 21 North Carolina 27
Those are my picks. Disagree? then as always drop me a line at footballdogz.com or at entertainmentinsider.com.au
Until Next Week,
Enjoy the Games
