Write Ups

Iowa- This should be the proverbial nip and tuck game. Both teams will hit each other head on and see who cracks first. I like Iowa's QB and RB to be the difference in this one. The game will come down to who will make the critical mistake and I am confident that Iowa will not turn the ball over when it counts and MSU will.

Virginia- Ball St is the fashionable pick but I like Virginia to take care of business at home. Ball St has had a nice start vs low level opponents and has not gone on the road and won against a team of this caliber. Don't get caught in the hype and miss out on a relatively easy home winner here.

Va Tech/UNC- The Hokies are hitting their stride on defense and controlling the clock with their ball control offense. UNC is struggling on offense and they will need to limit turnovers in this one. This will be a low scoring affair with little excitement unless, like me, you are on the under.

Indiana/Penn St and Illinois/Nebraska- I am grabbing the over in both of these games. 3/4 are offensive minded and Penn St will be able to march up and down the field while their defense will not be able to shut down Indiana. Meanwhile Ill and Nebraska will count on their offenses to get it done for them.
