The PPM is one fewer today after Boise State's 57-7 demolition of Fresno State last night....
Ohio State (3-2 0-1) travels to Nebraska (4-1 0-1) and still loses Boom Herron for one game and now DeVier Posey for five more.
If I were Posey,I would not even bother to risk injury to play two lousy games and drop in the next year's draft.
In any event,this one comes down to the Ohio State defense,if they can force some turnovers ,especially on the Husker side of the field,maybe they can hang in this one.
When I consider the Buckeye offense,I feel this is highly unlikely....
Texas Tech (4-0 1-0) hosts rival Texas A&M (2-2 0-1) in the last game between the two for quite a while,I would bet.
The Red Raiders have won the games that they needed to going into Big 12 play,but they have to prove to me that they are for real.
Tech struggled to a one point win over Nevada,who was then overmatched against Boise State in their next game.
A&M has blown sizable leads in both of their losses over the last two weeks and goes into the place that they hate to play most in Lubbock's Jones Stadium.
Ask an Aggie fan,they would rather to Austin and play the Horns than Lubbock and the Red Raiders.
The Aggies snapped a seven game losing streak in Lubbock with a win in their last visit in 2009.
Winner here is who is wins the run battle.A&M shuts down the run and runs the ball well.
Bowling Green (3-2 1-0) visits Western Michigan (3-2 1-0) after their expected waxing against West Virginia last week.
The Broncos are coming off a three point loss to ranked Illinois and a win over Connecticut.
Western throws the ball far more than BG,so after the WVA game the Falcons will see a different look...
Game of the week goes to the Red River Shootout as third ranked Oklahoma hits neutral turf against eleventh ranked Texas.
Both teams are undefeated,but Texas seems to me to be the weaker team.
I see lots of hook ups from Landry Jones to Ryan Broyles....
The Browns are on their bye week,so only two games from the NFL this week.
Seattle travels across the country after a gritty comeback against Atlanta to play the Giants.
Mike Williams will miss the game and I just do not see the Hawks,who are a bad road team anyway, being able to do much against the Giant pass rush...
Game of the week is the Sunday night war between the Packers and Falcons.
This one should feature about every possible thing that a football fan could want from both offenses.
This looks to see tons of footballs flying through the air and lots of scoring...
Our picks
Nebraska over Ohio State 24-7
Texas A&M over Texas Tech 34-24
Western Michigan over Bowling Green 31-20
Oklahoma over Texas 27-14
Giants over Seahawks 31-13
Packers over Falcons 38-30
