15 UnitsOregon State/UCLA Points
6:07 PM -- Rose Bowl
Oregon State by 17-21
TV: FSN Comments: For openers Oregon State is a dramatically superior football team and has so much more quickness and speed that this game could end up being a blowout. Oregon State (5-3) is young and somewhat inexperienced but one would never know it by watching the Beavers play. They have an explosive offense and a lockdown defense and it must be noted that two of its three losses this season came at Penn State (9-0) 45-14 and at Utah (10-0), 31-28. The figures say there is no way UCLA can keep it close.
5 UnitsOhio State (-11) over Northwestern
12:00 PM -- Ryan Field
Ohio State by 17-20
TV: ESPN2 Comments: It may well turn out to be a snowing day in Evanston but I don’t think it will have much impact on Ohio State, a 7-2 team coming off a bye week and a 13-6 loss to Penn State. Count on the Buckeyes being in a comeback mode and dominating a Northwestern (7-2) team that has injuries to several key people on offense. Of note is the fact OSU has won the last three games 56-7, 54-10 and 48-7.
Mostly cloudy with a 50-percent chance of rain. Winds blowing from the West at 15-25 m.p.h. Game-time temperature: Around 40.
4 UnitsArkansas/So Carolina Points
1:00 PM -- Williams-Brice Stadium
South Carolina by 3-4
TV: Pay Per View Comments: Arkansas (4-5) is one of the most improved teams in college football and stands a very impressive 2-2 in its last 4 games, with the two wins coming over Auburn and previously unbeaten Tulsa and the losses coming by 2 points to Mississippi and by 1 point to Kentucky. The charts say the Razorbacks are ready to fire their best shot and that should keep them in this one all the way. South Carolina (6-3) has a decent defense but is an unimpressive football team.
Partly cloudy. Winds blowing from the West at 5-10 m.p.h. Game-time temperature: Around 75.
3 UnitsOklahoma State/Texas Tech Points
8:00 PM -- Jones AT&T Stadium
Oklahoma State by 3-4
TV: ABC Comments: Texas Tech (9-0) is in a very tough spot in this Big 12 showdown. The Red Raiders come into this off a very draining last-second 39-33 win over previous number one ranked and undefeated Texas, and there is no way they can be ready to play at the 100% level. Oklahoma State (8-1) is every bit as good as Texas and is even quicker and with a betting running game. The only loss OSU has had this season was a 28-24 decision in Austin to Texas and my figures say they pull he ambush in Lubbock and get the outright win.
Clear. Winds blowing from the Southwest at 5-10 m.p.h. Game-time temperature: Around 65.
