OCTOBER 2 PREDICTIONS

Haven't done this yet this year...predictions for Saturday:

Texas vs. Oklahoma (Dallas):
I think Texas will rebound and win this one. If they had beaten UCLA, I would call for an OU win. But that defeat has focused the Horns and they'll be playing with a chip on their shoulder. OU hasn't lost but hasn't looked dominating either. They've kind of reminded me of Texas, just sort of scraping by on talent alone. Haven't seen anything really impressive from them yet, and I've watched the OU games.

Wisconsin at Michigan State: Wisconsin is a decent team but State is rolling and they'll have the "inspired" edge as their head coach will be calling the shots from the press box after having a heart attack and heart surgery hours after the OT win at Notre Dame.

Florida at Alabama: If you had asked me about this game after the first few weeks, I would have said UF, no doubt. But after watching Mark Ingram against Arkansas, my favor is back in Bama's court. He is more than just a good running back benefiting from a good offensive line, balanced passing attack and good defense. He is a GREAT running back. The kid is special and if he stays out of trouble will be one of the all-time greats when it's all said and done.

Stanford at Oregon: I know Oregon is good and has been blowing teams out. But I love what Stanford has put together and think they have a great shot at a Pac-10 title and a Rose Bowl berth. Andrew Luck is the man. Lot of native Texans will be playing in this one.

And finally, Penn State will beat Iowa on the road and things won't get any easier for Brian Kelly at ND - they lost at Boston College...for the Irish's FOURTH loss. Wow.
