College Football Picks Week 2

September 10th 2010 21:32
I Have Returned Loyal Readers...Sorry I missed week one but i'm hoping to make up for my abscence with some successful picks (god willing). Week 2 of this college football season is unusually stacked...like November level stackage...which should make for one crazy Saturday in college football.

On to the picks:

#18 Penn State at #1 Alabama: It is tempting to pick an upset here, seeing as how Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram is still out with his knee injury for the Tide...but Alabama has one of the most suffocating defenses in recent memory which will make it a long night for JoePa in Tuscaloosa.


Penn State 6 Alabama 24

#12 Miami Fl at #2 Ohio State: Perhaps the biggest game of the weekend...it features a battle of two of the most exciting QBs in the country with Ohio State's Terelle Prior and Miami's Jacory Harris. Adding to the drama is the potential appearance of Ohio turncoat Lebron James...but back to the game itself...the horseshoe is one of the hardest places on the planet to win...and the Canes find that out.

Miami 17 Ohio State 33

#17 Florida State at #10 Oklahoma: The Landry Jones era in Norman has begun...with a nailbiter against Utah State in week one. The Seminoles with new coach Jimbo Fisher pose a greater test...and they will get it done with a semi upset in Stoops' house.

FSU 24 Oklahoma 16

Iowa State at #9 Iowa: I couldn't resist including this one in my picks...a fun in state rivalry where talent and skill goes out the window for pure passion...Kinnick Stadium...enough said.

ISU 6 Iowa 28

Michigan at Notre Dame: Two prominant programs in a individual states of irrelevance...and both are 1-0...national championship preview...maybe not...but Brian Kelley has his team motivated and the carousel at QB in Ann Arbor can't possible end well.


Michigan 14 Notre Dame 27

Upset Picks:

#23 West Virginia at Marshall: Marshall is just one of those schools that gives you a hunch...the rich tradition, the Randy Moss connection...the fact that they were embarassed last week by Ohio State...I am just going with my gut and saying they pull off the upset.

WVU 24 Marshall 30

#15 Georgia Tech at Kansas: The same rationale applies for the Jayhawks...Don't get me wrong...the Jacket's triple option offense is fun to watch...but the Jayhawks are playing for personal pride after dropping a game to North Dakota State last week...I say the leave it all on the field and come away with the W.

GT 17 Kansas 24


Those are my picks for this week...disagree? then drop me a line at footballdogz.com

Until Next Week,
Enjoy the games
