TOP 25 College Football Picks - Week 3


So I'm a little late this season to start my first week of college football predictions. I'm starting with a clean slate and hopefully my Gamecocks will start to play a little better for a bowl shot.

Better late than never right? Fourteen games on slate for today and 0-0 for the season. Onto the picks for this week . . .

No. 5 Ohio State @ No. 1 USC - Not that the addition of Beanie Wells would've mattered all that much . . . Southern California 27 Ohio State 17.

No. 2 Georgia @ South Carolina - Usually a close game between these two SEC East division rivals, today will be no different . . . Georgia 24 South Carolina 17

No. 3 Oklahoma @ Washington - Can Jake Locker and company rebound from last week's disappointing loss to BYU? Not against the Sooners . . . Oklahoma 34 Washington 17

Nevada @ No. 5 Missouri - Chase Daniel and the Tigers keep it rolling . . . Missouri 45 Nevada 24

North Texas @ No. 7 LSU - Finally a home game on schedule for the Bayou Bengals . . . LSU 42 North Texas 7

No. 9 Auburn @ Miss. St. - Upset of the week in SEC play? Nah . . . Auburn 27 Miss St. 23

No. 10 Wisconsin @ No. 21 Fresno St. - Upset special . . . Fresno St. 27 Wisconsin 20

No. 14 East Carolina @ Tulane - When will the Pirates lose a game their not supposed to? It won't be Tulane Green Wave . . . East Carolina 38 Tulane 24

No. 16 Oregon @ Purdue - Curtis Painter gets 300+ through the air to upset the Ducks . . . Purdue 34 Oregon 31

No. 17 Penn State @ Syracuse - Syracuse continues its tumble toward D1's worse team . . . Penn State 44 Cuse' 17

UCLA @ No. 18 BYU - Don't let the win over Tennesee fool you, the Bruins aren't much good . . . BYU 27 UCLA 17

No. 23 California @ Maryland - Another bad loss for the ACC at home . . . Cal 24 Maryland 23

ACC Matchups

North Carolina St. @ Clemson - This could get ugly for the Wolfpack . . . Clemson 45 NC St. 14
