USC at 4 Oregon____INCORRECT

Bowl-ineligible USC visits the Ducks, who are hoping to nose their way into the BCS National Championship Game. The Ducks, though, need help to get there, and the best thing they can do is win out.

FINAL SCORE: Oregon 36, USC 20


16 Nebraska at 18 Michigan____INCORRECT

Nebraska is making a bit of noise in their first season in the inappropriately named Big Ten. Michigan, too, is playing pretty good, considering how recent seasons have gone for the Wolverines. Look for a tight, low scoring game.

FINAL SCORE: Nebraska 18, Michigan 14


Kentucky at 14 Georgia____CORRECT

The Dawgs need to win. Win this game and you're in the SEC Championship Game. Win this game a strike a bit of fear into the hearts of LSU and Alabama. You think I'm kidding? LSU and Alabama proved that they cannot find the end zone against a top flight defense. UGA is the #4 defense in the nation.

FINAL SCORE: Georgia 38, Kentucky 14


17 Wisconsin at Illinois____CORRECT

Wisconsin is also making Big Ten noise. Ron Zook's Illini are not exactly a push over, but look for the Badgers to win this one pretty handily.

FINAL SCORE: Wisconsin 42, Illinois 17


13 Kansas State at 23 Texas____CORRECT

K-State is trying to make a case for a BCS bowl berth, but they have to hope that Okie State crushes Oklahoma next week. Texas is in the midst of a few years slump, but the Longhorns will rebound eventually, just not this week.

FINAL SCORE: Kansas State 24, Texas 20
