    Washington over Ohio State is my upset pick this week. Also don't be surprised to see Kentucky keep Louisville close and potentially win.

    I was shocked by Air Force beating TCU.</p>

    Does that mean Texas is even worse than we thought?</p>

    I think Texas struggling to beat Ark State was the first sign that they're not as good as people thought. But it seems like almost every top team has stuggleda bit. Maybe they'll get it together.

    I would also say, almost every conference is down a bit as well. SEC included. But that makes the Big 10, ACC, and Big 12 look really bad lol. They weren't very good last yr. Especially, ACC and Big 12.</p>

    Anyone watching Troy and Okie State?</p>

    Just turned it on and Troy was up 20-3. Okie State just got a TD to make it 20-10 in the middle of the second quarter</p>

    Okie State is looking like a D-2 team right now. Troy is just kicking their behinds all over the field</p>

    27-10 and Troy just completed a long pass to get the ball inside the 5</p>

    The Luckeyes are striking again... Two dropped picks by Washington and a terrible call on a fumble recovery returned for a TD (ruled incompletion) by Boeckman, then Washington fumbles a kickoff in the 3rd quarter and OSU gets two TDs in 60 seconds... 17-7 OSU</p>

    Jake Locker is legit and is giving OSU fits, I just hope he can lead the comeback to beat the Luckeyes. </p>

    I was a bit nervous going in about Oregon against Fresno State. Fresno State is a team that usually plays Oregon tough, and Oregon was coming off a huge high. No need to worry this time though.

    Before the season started like most I pointed to the Louisville game as the pivotal game. Now I see Arkansas, SEC game, road game. Must win game to keep momentum going and our chance in the SEC East. Hope Coach Brooks can get these kids refocused. This is where good senior leadership has to come in. Woodson, Burton, Woodyard, Little have to get everyone back on the ground and focused.

    A win over Louisville is nice for braggin' rights, but right now a win at Arkansas would be 10 times better!
