Writeups:

Tennessee- The vols are in a great spot here. Despite this being a road game, the Vols will becoming in full of confidence. Missouri is coming off the devastating loss and more importantly, the Tigers had a weakness exposed last week by South Carolina. Missouri's offensive did not hold up in the 2nd half as SC pressured their QB and harrassed their wide receivers on the line. Missouri's timing got disrupted and the rest is history. Surely Tenn. will do the same thing and Missouri will try to adjust. However it is difficult to change your offense on the fly especially one predicated on timing like the Tigers.

Look for a fast start for Tennessee. I will be taking them on the money line as well as this game will come down to the final minute and I like UT's chance for the straight up win.

Miami- Pretty much everyone is calling for the blowout win by FSU and everything looks that. I however really like Miami to hang in this from start to finish. The Miami defense is very solid and does not get a lot of credit. FSU's offense has been terrific and they will be a challenge for Miami but they will be challenged for the first time this year and funny things happen when you can't do the things you expect to do for the first time. I am not calling for the SU upset but Miami will not be intimidated and will make the Seminoles sweat.

UTEP- Not planning on watching much of this one. Looking for UTEP to get a couple of TD's in garbage time which will be extended in this blowout and the team total over.

Texas Tech- Will be interesting to see how they bounceback. I am not sold on OSU and will take a shot on the red raiders.
