    My picks:

    Miami 27 Va Tech 10 - Payback for last year.

    OU 45 Colorado 7 - and it won't even really be as close as this score would indicate!

    Cal 42 USM 17 - They'll know the result of the USC game at kickoff.

    UCLA 35 USC 34 - Sure, USC has more to play for; USC has more talent; USC hasn't lost a game in over a year; UCLA hasn't played a game in about a year (it seems)! So what if USC has beaten UCLA five straight? This is a rivalry game, in which anything can happen. UCLA is due. Geaux Bruins!

    Tennessee 14 Auburned 13 - Tennessee scores late TD to deny Tubby the unblemished season!

    Pittsburgh at South Florida - Who gives a rip???!

    OU wins big. Stoops definantly won't let his team slack off again this year.

    I sure hope Tennessee wins, but I just don't see it happening - the only way it happens is if Auburn goes out there and lays down for them. Auburn is the better team and Tubberville has them inspired as of late, we will see if he can keep it up.

    Miami wins, whether by alot or a little depends on Berlin - he's been playing better recently and if he has a good game Miami torches Va Tech.

    I don't know anything about UCLA, haven't watched any of their games this year. Are they any good? What possibility do they have for an upsetting of USC?

    Cal beats Southern Miss, maybe by 20 or so.

    Even though most people point to the fact that Tennessee's QB situation is the major factor keeping them from winning this game, I point more to the etrocious defense this team has.

    Auburn 45, Tennessee 10 (It will be quite ugly...take that you BCS f*cks!)
    USC 48, UCLA 31 (close until the 4th Quarter)
    Cal 51, USM 20 (close until you hear the starter's pistol go off)
    Va. Tech 20, Miami 16 (too many mistakes in the red zone for Berlin and the gang)
    OU 23, Colorado 22 (this will propel Auburn to #2 in both polls, but not the BCS...yeah controversy!)
    South Florida 26, Pittsburgh 24 (the Big Least should not get a BCS invite)

    I'm guessing that yet again USC will fail to show up in the first half, with UCLA keeping it close or even winning at halftime. Then USC lights it up the second half.

    I hope they keep doing this gameplan. OU will just tear them a new one in the first half and USC won't be able to keep up.

    Miami 34 VT 20
    OU 38 CU 21
    Cal 42 USM 13
    USC 27 UCLA 21
    Auburn 28 Tenn 17
    i think UCLA plays USC close because of the rivalry and UCLA playing at home, but UCLA does not have enough skill players to win the game
    Berlin will win the game for Miami, he's having a great year and it will continue through the VT game

    Auburn-Two years in a row, two teams will rematch in the SEC championship game and the winner could have National Championship implications, but it depends on OU, just like last year.

    Colorado- OU choked last year, and before that. Wishful thinking.

    USC- They are USC, so many close games but damn they always come back strong. I hate to say it but these guys are good.

    Cal- They are playing Southern Miss.

    VT- Miami hasn't been themselves since Berlin came in. They have been good, but not the same.

    Tubby calls a fake punt with 3 mins left to run up the score. 51-17 chickens.

    Auburn 37-17

    OU 38-28

    Cal 29-12

    Miami 24-23


    UCLA 34-17

    south florida has a good defense yet a bad offense. if they can manage to keep it low scoring they will beat Pitt.

    I'm way too biased about this weekend to make these predictions, but I'll do it anyway. Especially since pretty much all of the games except the Pittsburgh one directly effect Texas' BCS chances.

    Pittsburgh 28
    South Florida 24

    Miami 35
    Virginia Tech 27

    Louisville 56
    Tulane 28

    USC 42
    UCLA 17

    Auburn 20
    Tennessee 10

    California 35
    Southern Miss 17
