4. Top 25 teams?

Where's number 4, Linfield?

Oh, never mind. They have a bye this week. But October 4, it's time for the showdown with Pacific Lutheran! There's excitement in the air!

[SmileyBoy]

5. I e-mailed you. I got some hot pix.

A few upsets mixed in there that I thought of too. Well, I don't know if Northern Illinois over Iowa State is an "upset", but we'll see...

[sasquatch]

6. Ohio State over Northwestern by 10 points

:)

[SmileyBoy]

7. You mean Northwest-ERN, right???

I don't think I could take those guys on alone and lose by 10.:-)

[sasquatch]

9. Ooops!!

:) thanks for the correction.

[sasquatch]

8. here's some upsets to look for

Michigan State over Iowa
South Carolia over Tennessee
Texas A&M over Pittsburgh

[FlashHarry]

11. Iowa will cremate Michigan State...

...then complete the one-two by defeating Michigan at their homecoming in Iowa City! GO HAWKS!

(A fella's gotta dream...)

[VermontDem2004]

12. Look for

Oregon State over Arizona State, I regret saying that as an Arizona State fan but Oregon State has an explosive offense and a heisman running back. Just their defense has a few question marks, I think ASU can win, but it won't be easy.

[Twillig]

15. didn't see this reply

The question mark on the defense is can the secondary be burned by the long ball? If the Safeties can keep back and not cheat up and get burned they can help out and stop the deep ball.

The run defense is solid. The ASU running game isn't all that, is it?

OSU special teams is very shaky. Hope we don't have to punt much.

Red Zone offense has been weak. Not enough touchdowns. Good field goal kicker who's recovered nicely from appendicitis (and surgery)2 weeks ago.

Quarterback can be erratic. Anderson can be the best we've ever seen one day, the target of home team boos the next. Sadly.

Soon to be pro:

sadly.

18. I was talking about the secondary

Last year they were ranked in the bottom of the Pac-10 in pass defense, ASU doesn't have a running game just because we keep rotating backs. Loren Wade is a somewhat good, but he is only a true Freshman, in 2 or 3 years watch out! Plus our Special Teams has improved greatly, you will give up some big returns but probaly no touchdowns. The biggest problem for the Sun Devils this year is mental mistakes. Our Defense has improved alot since last season and I really haven't seen Oregon State's defense that is why I said question marks. I am :scared: of Steven Jackson though, he will be tough to stop.

14. You guys are ranked?

Wheee! If the Beavs get ya, we will probably--still be unranked.



I'd say and hope that your pick of Wazzu is on the money. I'm too lazy and unknowledgeable about all these teams. I go to game or catch the Beavs on TV (if possible) at a friends place( ok. i.e., a bar.)

I'll think about these and see if i can make some guesses.

Oh, College football fans and pac-10 peeps especially, check out the latest UO/Nike uniform Humiliation. This time it's to the band:



HAHAHAHHAHA!

17. Oregon State has an explosive offense

You are very lucky to have Steven Jackson. OSU is my second favorite Pac 10 team but I hope you guys lose on Saturday, lol. Your team would probaly ranked if you didn't lose to Fresno State.

hahahaha Arizona coach refuses to shake hands with Purdue coach, what an ass.
