I’m off to Indiana, PA to call some D2 ball on the radio, but here are my quick picks for the rest of week one. Keeping with my bowl mania trend, I was 2-2 on Thursday night.
#6 Ohio State Over Navy
#9 Penn State over Akron
#22 Iowa over Northern Iowa
#15 Georgia Tech over Jacksonville State
#23 Notre Dame over Nevada- maybe its my pessimism, but I think this one is close in the third quarter. Think last year’s San Diego State game. That being said, Clausen has a big fourth quarter and ND wins by 14.
#4 USC over San Jose State- Who’s pumped to see Matt Barkley? I know I am.
#24 Nebraska over Florida Atlantic
#1 Florida over CSU
#3 Oklahoma over #20 BYU- BYU beat writer Jeff Call was on my show last month and questioned Max Hall’s ability to play well in big games. We’ll see early on if he’s improved. TE Jermaine Gresham is out for this one, that’s sure to effect a Sooner offense that will be less explosive to begin with. But the biggest storyline??…What if a punt hits the scoreboard?!?!
#25 Kansas over North Colorado
#2 Texas over L.A Monroe
#12 California over Maryland
#11 LSU over Washington
#8 Mississippi over Memphis
#21 UNC over Citadel
Two to change plans for
#9 Oklahoma State over #13 Georgia- I think this is one of those matchups where you have to pick the home team.
#7 Va. Tech over #5 Alabama
The Upset of the Week
Miami over #18 Florida State

Your article about Urban Meyer’s signing of an extension is good news for Charlie Weis should have been signed “Third string blogger.” Enough about Urban Liar. He is not, was not and will never come to Notre Dame. His recruiting practices are legendary, even in the Sports) E(xepts) C(lasses) conference and would never be tolerated in South Bend. So, stop already find something else to “write” about and let the Urban Meyer to Notre Dame nonsense FINALLY go away. It’s old, tiresome news!
