#1 Alabama vs #7 Florida
This game will tell the nation how good the Tide offense and defense really are. Florida is still trying to find their identity on offense with Jonathan Brantley under center. The Gators will be the underdogs going into this battle in Alabama. Crimson Tide should have no problems taking care of these young Gators at home and maintain their number one ranking. Both Mark Ingram and Trent Richardson will have a good game on the ground which will set up the passing game.
#Ohio State vs Illinois
Terrelle Pryor will again show case his arm and legs in this game. Buckeyes open their conference games with a victory in Illinois with a semi blow out. This game will be tight in the first half but the Buckeyes will come alive in the second half with Pryor and offense burning the Illini up and down the field. Pryor will get a invite to New York for the Heisman Trophy Award.
#3 Boise State vs New Mexico State
Cake walk game for the Broncos. Will not be a contest. Kellen Moore will have a nice game passing wise.
#4 Oregon vs #9 Stanford
PAC 10 game of the week. Game is played in Oregon so this will be a tough match up for the Cardinals and Andrew Luck. Oregon offense is blaze like fire with LaMichael James and Darron Thomas leading the way. This game might serve as who will represent the PAC 10 in the BCS. The Cardinals come in riding a great victory over Notre Dame and will look to stop this spread attack offense from the Quacks. This will be a close game to the end and the Cardinals will prevail with a seven point win. This game will highlight two teams that has Heisman contenders in LaMichael James of Oregon and Andrew Luck of Stanford.
#5 TCU vs Colorado State
TCU will look to roll throw their conference schedule starting with the Rams. Andy Dalton is the real deal under center for the Horned Frogs. TCU passing attack will give Colorado St. trouble and the Frogs will roll to their first conference victory. TCU will be tested by Utah when they meet Nov. 6 in Utah. Until then they will be on a roll and looking to move up in the polls.
#6 Nebraska bye
Will play Kansas St on Thursday Oct 7 in Manhattan, KS
#7 Florida vs #1 Alabama
Top two teams in the SEC will have a night game in Alabama. Gators better show up and play. They will need every ounce of Gatorade to keep up with the Tide. In the end the Gators will fall to the Mighty Crimson Tide who are looking to repeat and defend their national title. Speed will be a factor on both side of the ball and team.
#8 Oklahoma vs #21 Texas
The Red River Shootout. This game will feature one new quarterback in Garrett Gilbert of Texas and a second year starter in Landry Jones. The Sooners feature DeMarco Murray at running back and Ryan Broyles at wide out. The three headed monster of Jones, Murray and Broyles on offense will be to much for this young Longhorns team that just lost to UCLA in a bad way. The UCLA lost was one of the worst lost in coach Mack Brown coaching career. The Longhorns will fight to the end but will not have enough to beat a will prepared Mark Stoops team that is looking to roll throw the Big 12 South and meet Nebraska in the Big 12 title game. Gilbert will have to grow up and lead this offense that stalled against a UCLA team that handled them 34-12.
#9 Stanford vs #4 Oregon
Andrew Luck will need all the luck to beat this Oregon team that is out to prove to the nation they deserve national attention for the BCS Championship. Cardinals will have to play a near perfect game to beat the Ducks on their home pond. This will be a prime time game on ABC at 5 pacific time. The Cardinals will have to defend the spread attack and make Darron Thomas uncomfortable in the pocket and force him to throw the ball. LaMichael James will spearhead the rushing attack and will need to be contain in the box. Cardinals take the game and move up in the rankings. Very important game for both teams with BCS implications.
#10 Auburn vs Louisiana-Monroe
Quick possible a game that will be a cup cake for the Tigers of Auburn. This offense is lead by Cam Newton a former Florida Gator and JUCO transfer and freshman Michael Dyer. This game will serve as a tune up game for the Tigers as they are coming off a victory against South Carolina Gamecocks 35-27. Auburn is coming into the meat of the conference games so this will be one of their few lets roll up the score board and get the back up some reps game.
