:shock: :shock:

This is an absolute contradiction--it can't exist in the universe as we know it.

Pitt at Utah - Utes at home throw a wrench into Pitt's budding juggernaut...
Mizzou-Illinois - Illini have been wanting this annual beat-down "rivalry series" to end for years--what a shame they're finally getting their wish
Colorado at Colorado St - nasty intra-state rivalry--who knows?
PURDUE at Notre Dame - Purdue consistently, inexplicably finds a way to lose to mediocre doma squads every year....nevertheless, I'm backing my glorious alma mater in this one
UCLA at Kansas St - love the powder blue UCLA unis...no other idea justification for taking the surfer dudes in Manhattan...
Kentucky at Louisville another nasty intra-state rivalry....I'll go with the home team here
Washington at BYU- I like that Jake Locker..
Washington St at Oklahoma St - another tossup/whoknows game; so I'll take the homestanding Cowpokes...
Northwestern at Vanderbilt -Gimme the Cats in this "Nerd Bowl"
Oregon State at TCU absolutely essential for Horny Frogs to win if they desire national cred.
LSU at North Carolina - Bayou Bengals throttle Heels
Cincinnati at Fresno St - Is there life after Kelly for Bearcats?
Boise St at Virginia Tech (Monday) this could be the toughest team either of these two face all year

I went to Purdue, but was raised on ND football. I typically pull for Purdue when they play, but like to see ND do well.

Ah--I see...there are very few Catholic kids growing up in the Midwest/East who aren't inured with doma blarney almost daily...easily the most insufferable fanbase on the planet.

I'm very thankful I outgrew childhood afflictions like bedwetting, chicken pox, pimples, and Doma fandom :wink:

Heh that, I was an Irish Catholic. But my great-grandfather played with the four horsemen under Knute Rockne, and I was in Indiana - so its a family thing.

I heard something on ESPN this morning that Boise winning this game is one of the first steps to a non-big six conferences winning the BCS for the first time.

So, are we going to have a separate thread where it's down to 10 games?
