I think FSU will beat Miami by at least 2 touchdowns, probably more.   I have not been impressed by Miami.  FLA is not that good this year and they should have beat Miami (in Miami) but FLA had 5 turnovers (3 in the Miami red zone, and one when they were in their own red zone).

I think Mizzou beats Tenn.  They are playing at Mizzou and Tenn will be playing without their starting QB. Tenn will have a freshman QB making his first start.  Mizzou leads the SEC in sacks & interceptions.  Tenn better be able to run the ball or this will get ugly.

I think Georgia beats FLA.  Georgia has their top running back Gurley back for this game and I think this gives GA the edge.
I found out this week that the FLA QB Murphy was suffering from a sprained shoulder against Mizzou and I did notice his accuracy was off that game.  Murphy should be 100 percent for this game, but FLA lost another O-lineman so they will only have 2 guys who are regular starters, one guy with some starting experience, and two guys will be making their first starts.
Both of these teams have been decimated by injuries this year. This is usually a very physical game, so I expect both teams to be in even worse shape after this game.

I agree, nobody cares about Nebraska/Northwestern

I went out on a limb with some of those, but I think they're good picks. My long shot was Tennessee over Missouri, and the toughest one to make was Georgia Florida. Posting from my phone watching the game, nc an Bryn Renner injured.

FSU routs Miami

Mizzou routs Tenn

Gurley has a big game and GA edges FLA

I think I nailed my predictions this week, now I need to hit the lotto.  If I hit the lotto, I got tasty's bill for next month.

haha, everyone saw fsu beating miami, georgia beating florida, and mizzou beating tenn. Nothing lucky about that You're reasoning was spot-on except for the florida-georgia game. I like to call a bunch of upsets, and I got half of 'em. My BC > VA Tech was good(especially right after unc creamed BC 34-10).

now THIS is lucky:

If you get in a grove with the picks, make some money (legally,of course)! You made some good ones.......

The Saint's soon become the Aint's in my crystal ball......possibly losing 6 of the last 8 games.     New Orleans' offensive line are not ready for prime time....or I could just say they suck. I say 6-2 goes to 8-8 - at best. If they make the playoffs (playoffs? you kidding me? playoffs??? we just need to win a game...playoffs???) they will be summarily crushed. 

Again, waiting for next year...............

you think they go 2-6 in the last 8 games? get the fuck outta here

NFL picks
TB over Seattle - Upset special  I know this will never happen.

  The Bucs had a 21-0 lead and I thought  they might make a fool out of me.  In the end reality kicked in and they lost in overtime.

Good set of picks Haunted 

[haunted]

Bucs almost had it! I was rooting for y'all.. I like Mike Glennon. Him and Brynn Renner(UNC's QB) had a bit of a rivalry going on, brynn being the better qb by a little. Both low in the draft, both end/will end up surprising people.

And thanks, I thoguht the Jets/browns could pull it off, same with the texans but they had a few slips.

If you're right Krill Mule, and in regard to how Carolina's playing, it looks like they may have a shot at the play-offs.

Eagles > Oakland, 38-34

All 5 of the dudes on Fox NFL Sunday picked Oakland for that one, and after Pryor's nutty 90-something yard TD sprint the other week, I can't blame them for going that way, but...
HOLY SHIT!
Who the fuck saw that one coming!?! Didn't see the game, and I didn't see any of the highlights from it, but I think I did hear someone on Football Night In America before the sunday night game talking about how Foles threw for SEVEN touchdowns. SEVEN!?! FOLES!?! WHAT THE FUCK!?! Did aliens abduct me!?! What planet am I on?

Only reason Georgia beat Florida... Todd Gurley III. I think it's kinda eye-opening and amazing to finally see proof that college football is NOT a team sport, HAHAHA! At least not in this case. At the beginning of the game when Gurley was fresh and ready to go, he was bashing it through the Florida defense like a battering ram. And while he was doing that, Florida was shitting themselves trying to load up the line and stop him, and just when they'd commit all the linebackers to plugging the holes, Murray would finally have room to pass one or two to Bennett who just got back from injury as well. But then later in the game when Gurley was fixing to puke his guts out, they went back to being completely useless on offense.

Football's a team sport? MY ASS, IT IS! Football's a Gurley sport played by Gurley men.

Had a couple tickets for that game, but I didn't feel like going all the way down to Florida just to watch them probably lose. They didn't lose, but still glad I didn't waste the trip down there.

As for Miami vs FSU... Miami might've lost, but they still played pretty well. Hoping to see Alabama and FSU in the BCS Title game. I think FSU has a legitimate chance at beating Alabama, so it'll be an interesting game. I just don't think Oregon would have the same chance against Alabama. Maybe they would, I dunno. But I think by the time the conference championships are over (maybe even before that), FSU is gonna hop over Oregon to take the #2 spot. The pollsters are loving FSU at the moment and seem to be a lot more likely to go all-in on FSU over Oregon.
