This Week

Can Baylor keep it rolling in Boulder?

Knebel has continued his dominance from spring game through the first couple of matchups for Baylor, but the Heisman favorite hasn't faced this Colorado team, which has boasted a top scoring defense in each year of Bingo's tenure - this year they've had their struggles, but held Jeurys Cooper to 1:1 and a 7 ypa. I think Baylor pulls this out, but it's closer than folks may expect otherwise.

Forever watching Syracuse?

Mentioning Syracuse again this week, as they face a Pitt team that's struggled to pass the ball sustainably. I have Syracuse as my 2nd team in the ACC next to FSU and I think they start to show why this week against a team that's had their hiccups already earlier this season.

Can Nebraska beat a real team?

Nebraska has faced the 119th best strength of schedule in the nation, and their results so far line up with expectations - that they've come a long way since their 3-9 inaugural season. But the question remains as to what this team looks like against a real bonafide team, like Illinois. I think Illinois stops Richaun Alsadek while the defense can't contain the Illinois rushing attack and Nebraska falls in their first loss after averaging  38-3 victories to begin the season.

Who wins the only (almost) Top Ten Showdown this week?

Arkansas' defense has given up the fewest points in the country so far this season at 13. Tennessee is lead by a passing attack that's likely to average over 500 yards per game this season. I think Tennessee wins here on the strength of Savage's 3rd down performance keeping drives alive, but they get held to under 350 yards passing and squeak by this Arkansas squad that's a lot better than folks expect to begin the season.
