Top Picks:

Utah -3.5 vs Oregon St
Central Florida +3.5 vs Penn St
LSU -21 First Half vs Kent St

Writeups

Arizona St- Big 10 teams have not done well in the desert historically and Wisconsin is trying to reverse that trend. They will be tested mightily in this one to keep it close. They will be facing a fast paced offense in front of a hostile crowd. Both teams have feasted on weak competition and Wisconsin's defensive will be a heavy disadvantage when they hurry up gets going.

I like the Sun Devils to put this game away in the 2nd half as Wisconsin tries too late to slow the pace and realizes that they can't match the pace.

Utah- I have to give the Utes credit, they are playing well and with a lot of confidence. I think they will hit the wall later in the season but I really like them in this spot. They have momentum right now and are catching an Oregon St team that has not found their rhythym yet. Oregon St was pretty similar last year when they were the hot team that nobody was taking seriously. Big crowd will be a factor as well.

Central Florida- You can count on George O'Leary to have a solid defensive game plan ready for the inexperienced Penn St QB's. C. Florida always comes ready to play and they will give Penn St everything they can handle. Penn St will need to run the effectively to fight off the upset and I am not sure that C. Florida will let that happen. If the QB turns the ball over then look for the upset for the Knights.

LSU- Kent St is coming off a 2nd half collapse against Bowling Green and now has to travel to LSU and face a very rough LSU team. I am looking for LSU to hit them hard and fast in this one and run out to a big lead early. Building a 21+ lead in the first half should be pretty straightforward.
