  Marshall 3 2 28 Georgia Southern MUST find

13 Oklahoma 4 1 21 be 16 or more.
           
  California 3 2 21 This should be a great game
25 Pittsburgh 5 0 32 that is played well.

  Minnesota 3 3 31 Gophers will triple the book-
  UCLA 1 4 13 makers’ 6 point spread.
           
3 Penn St. 5 0 33 PSU will stifle USC’s rush.
  USC 3 2 17 USC is Savvy-projected now for 7-5.
           
  Memphis 4 1 40 I agree with 60 total points but the

  UNLV 4 1 49 UNLV will have a 20 point
  Utah St. 1 4 16 lead by halftime.
           
21 Louisville 3 2 30 Personally, I think Vegas and Savvy

8 Clemson 4 1 42 I personally think Wake Forest
  Wake Forest 2 3 14 gives Clemson a tough game.

  W Kentucky 3 2 42 going to be much higher.
           
  Akron 1 5 25 Akron won’t win much this year
  W Michigan 2 3 31 but next year could be a bowl program.
           
23 Iowa St. 5 0 27 W Virginia’s offense is heating
  W Virginia 3 2 23 up enough to win this.
           
  San Diego St. 2 3 31 Wyoming has found some
  Wyoming 1 4 14 terrific momentum. Upset here?
