Lots of Games

Saturday has 24 top-25 teams in action. We apologize if we make it brief.


1. Florida: at home against UT. Let's face it, the Vols cannot win a big game like this without Chris Lofton and his 21 point average. Gators roll.


2. Wisconsin: no doubt they will beat Northwestern at home.


3. North Carolina: play at NC State. Yes, the Heels are very good, and yes, the Wolf Pack is not so good. NC State is coming off a win against #18 Virginia Tech, so they could be pumped-up enough to be close, and even lead, at the end of the first half. But, we see the Heels winning this one. Sorry Sidney.


4. Ohio State: play at Michigan State. The Spartans played OSU close last week, but the Buckeyes will not lose this game.


5. UCLA: at home against Oregon State. Another win for the Bruins.


6. Kansas: play at home against #8 Texas A&M. Best game of the day. A pretty even match-up. But we see the Jayhawks winning. NOTE: this will be close, and we concede that we may miss this game.


9. Oregon: away at USC. The Trojans surprise the Ducks and get the upset.


11. Butler: get Wisconsin-Milwaukee at home. Yawn. Butler wins again.


12. Memphis: host SMU. SMU has depth, but no real scorers. Memphis wins.


13. Nevada: at Hawaii. The only benefit to playing in the WAC is that you get to go to Hawaii once each season. Nevada wins.


14. Oklahoma State: at Colorado. The Cowboys win against the woeful Buffaloes.


15. Marquette: play Providence at home. The Friars beat Marquette in early January, but the Golden Eagles will have no problem with this team at home. Marquette wins.


16. Air Force: play Wyoming at home. The Cowboys are really not too bad, and the seldom get blown-out by good teams. Heck, they only lost by 2 to Air Force back in January. BUT, Air Force is looking to avenge their loss to the Mormons (BYU) and they will win. It could be close, though.


17. Washington State: away at Arizona State. ASU is 0-10 in the Pac-10. No need to say more as Washington State wins.


18. Virginia Tech: at Boston College. This will be a fun game to watch. BC is tied with the Hokies and Virginia for second in the ACC. We call an upset here. The Eagles win at home.


19. Notre Dame: at South Florida. No contest. The Fighting Irish win.


20. Alabama: play South Carolina at home. While Bama should not be anywhere near the top-25, they will beat the Gamecocks.


21. Clemson: play at Georgia Tech. Time has proven that the Tigers are all hype, and the Yellow Jackets will be tough coming off 4 straight losses (they lost to Weak Forest for gosh sakes). But the Tigers are also coming off a couple of tough losses. We will have to side with the IPTAY boosters and give Clemson the win.


22. Arizona: plays Washington at home. Not a good 7 days for the Wildcats as they have lost 2 stright at home. They will not not lose this one. Wildcats tear up the Huskies.


23. Texas: play Kansas State at home. Another game to watch. Kansas State pulls it out to beat Texas.

24. Kentucky: play away at Arkanas: The Wildcats are not a top-25 team, and the Razorbacks will prove this as they beat Kentucky.


25. Indiana: play at Iowa. Easy game for the Hoosiers. Indiana wins.


25. UNLV: at BYU. The Mormons fall to the sinners as the Rebels win.


See you later.
