The Games

Miami at 21 Kansas State .....CORRECT
This is a tough game to pick, because I'm not completely sold on Kansas State, but neither am I sold on Miami. I think the 'Canes give this one a good go, but K-State should pull away in the fourth.
FINAL SCORE: Kansas State 27, Miami 20

Savannah State at 6 Florida State .....CORRECT
I know this is an easy call, but it's more of an ego thing than anything. I'm trying to see how close I can get on this score. Savannah State just gave up 84 points to Oklahoma State, who was picked by only 67.5 points. FSU is picked by 70.5 points. The Seminoles have never really been known for their mercy, and they may just hang 100 points on Savannah State, but I have a feeling the foot comes ff the gas sometime around halftime.
FINAL SCORE: Florida State 77, Savannah State 0

7 Georgia at Missouri .....CORRECT
Georgia didn't exactly look great in scoring 45 points against Buffalo. Then again, it was the first game, a few players were suspended and hurt, and it took the team some time to work out the kinks. Georgia's defensive front is likely to win the battle along the line of scrimmage. It'll be a nail-biter, but the Dawgs win in the end.
FINAL SCORE: Georgia 28, Missouri 24

Washington at 3 LSU .....CORRECT
This may be a surprisingly tough non-conference game for LSU, but I doubt it. QB Zach Mettenberger has the LSU faithful full of hope. I'd say this game stay close until the half, after which LSU steadily pulls away.
FINAL SCORE: LSU 42, Washington 14

24 Florida at Texas A&M .....CORRECT
The Aggies get their first taste of SEC action, welcoming the somewhat anemic Gators to Kyle Field. Florida settled on a QB, and although they weren't great against Bowling Green, Florida has still played a game to get things settled don on both sides of the ball. Texas A&M saw their first game postponed thanks to Hurricane Isaac. They've not had the chance to work out the kinks. I think this gives Florida the advantage.
FINAL SCORE: Florida 28, Texas A&M 24
