Had the first losing week last week, going 2-3, and dropping the season record to 21-13.
Ball State -10 at Akron - The Cardinals have been rolling pretty well the last month, including a blowout upset at Virginia. Akron finally got their first win over a FBS opponent by beating hapless Miami (OH) by a single touchdown. Ball State will continue to roll and bring the Zips back down to earth this weekend.
at Virginia Tech -13 Duke - Very quietly, the Hokies have put together a solid season after the opening loss to Alabama. And their defense is back to being nasty. The Blue Devils had an incredible rally last week to beat Virginia, but Tech won't let that happen this week and while most of the Hokies games have been close, they should get a bit of a breather this week.
Baylor -34.5 at Kansas - I've stayed away from Baylor the last couple of weeks because the spreads have been so big. It hasn't mattered. The Bears continue to just pile up video game numbers and their deadly passing, running, receiving, returning and even adding some defense. The Jayhawks are terrible under Charlie Weis and Baylor will get to 60 again on Saturday. The question is will Head Coach Art Briles let the Bears get to 100 one day.
Georgia Tech -10 at Virginia - How Virginia beat BYU the first week of the season remains one of the great mysteries this year. This team has no heart and Head Coach Mike London is probably done after this year. They put a cherry on top of their season by blowing a 22-0 lead over Duke last week and losing 35-22. The Yellow Jackets are in trouble of not being bowl eligible and this is one of the few very winnable games left on their schedule if they hope to make it. Tech should be able to run at will against the heartless Cavaliers and roll to victory.
Arizona -13 at Colorado - The Buffaloes haven't been within 26 points of any of their Pac-12 opponents this season. Arizona comes in with Ka'Deem Carey going for over 200 yards on the ground last week. The Wildcats should blast Colorado easily.
