One more gulp
Ok let's give this thing a try.
I'm predicting four of the five (I think) undefeated teams on the field this week will remain so, with a pair if them taking on each other.
by starting time ..
Washington is at Rutgers and their first recruiting class since starting conference play is going to take a hit as they play their first counting game and have a LONG flight home. Rutgers seems to be surprisingly good but this game won't be much of a test as they easily cover the 2 1/2 points the odds makers have then giving.
Minnesota will have a shorter flight as they leave the Big House where they won't cover the 9 1/2 they are getting. Michigan continues to seem more relevant than they are but that is a good thing for the Ducks.
Nebraska is in Lafayette to face Purdidn'twho this week Purwon't, evening their conference record and covering the 10 point predicted difference
Now it gets interesting. Wisconsin is facing USC and we know how B1G teams have done in Los Angeles over the years, especially on New Years Day. I think the Bucky Busher covers the 15.5 spread. Bucky earned the moniker by calling time out with seconds left in a game at Autzen to kick a field goal and run up the score in a lop-sided game long before Oregon was relevant.
Mr Smith usually fails at some point early in the season and is about to have another unfortunate encounter with an OSU program but will be closer than 24 points in the exhaust.
Penn State is a 19 point favorite vs the Illini but won't cover and may even be victim of the only upset victim of the week.
Oregon will cover in the Rose Bowl.
in other interesting news, look for touchdown Jesus to be weeping again as his leprechauns perform another feckless act on the gridiron below him. They will also lose the game.
