    This week could have some good potential upsets with the last few undefeated's left. Only seven undefeated teams left -- LSU, Bama, OK St., Clemson, Boise St., Stanford, and Kansas St. in the top 10. LSU and Bama have the week off for the big match up next week against each other in Tuscaloosa, Boise St. also have the week off. That leaves Clemson who has Georgia Tech, Stanford who has USC, OK St. who has Baylor, and Kansas St. who has OU.

    Notable Games:

    Rice-Houston- 7 PM CST (THURS)
    BYU-TCU- ESPN 7 PM CST (FRI)
    MSU-Nebraska- ESPN 11 AM CST
    Missouri-Texas A&M- 11 AM CST
    Purdue-Michigan- ESPN2 11 AM CST
    Arkansas-Vanderbilt- SEC Network 11:21 AM CST
    Baylor-Oklahoma St.- ABC/ESPN2 2:30 PM CST

    I think the 2 best match ups are Stanford vs USC and OU vs KSU. USC is no push over and we will find out if KSU is for real.

    Rice-Houston. Can't wait

    OU-Kansas St. OU will rebound

    Clemson-Georgia Tech. Clemson's biggest remaining speed-bump but Tech is sliding

    Stanford-USC. It may take until the 2nd half, but Stanford will win convincingly. USC just isn't good enough to hang with them.

    KSU will probably get dismantled, but man do I hope they win. The fun thing is, they're the complete opposite of Texas Tech. What I need is for KSU & OU to beat OK St. - there's still hope!

    I'm looking forward to the Big 12 games this week, good stuff.

    Mizzou @ A&M: future SEC BFFs
    BU @ OSU: will we see triple digits?
    OU @ KSU: snyder's litmus test

    Also curious to see the results of these CUSA games.

    SMU @ Tulsa: Tulsa can knock SMU out of the west division chase with a win
    SoMiss @ UTEP: longgg roadie for the eagles

    Random: I own a David Wesley Rockets jersey, because of the name on the back, and the way he played. If the Texans ever get Ed Wesley, I will buy his jersey for the same reasons. If you saw the run he just had against BYU, you understand.

    A&M's defense, in particular the tackling, reminds me of NCAA 2012 set to Rookie with the sliders turned all the way down. Just comically bad. The cougars would smoke these jokers.

    I don't know who would win, but the score would be like 87-84.
