GameDay

After a very long week of sub-par football games, College Football Saturday is finally here!! This week is mainly focused on some big time match ups in some of the big time conferences, but a couple key out of conference games are still on the schedule.  Check us out every Saturday morning for our primer to GameDay!

The Big 10 boasts a couple games to keep an eye on this week.  Indiana brings its high powered offense to The Ohio State University and the Buckeyes stingy defense.  Depending on the health of Terrelle Pryor, this could be a tight game.  The game of the week in the Big 10 would have to be Michigan State at Michigan.  This rivalry got a whole lot more interesting with the emergence of Denard Robinson facing the very talented Spartan defense, led by Greg Jones.

A couple of the out of conference games to at the very least keep an eye on would be Arkansas and Texas A&M in Dallas at Jerry’s Palace and Utah at Iowa State.  The Arky/TAMU game should be an offensive explosion, and it features a handful of NFL Draft prospects.  Utah at Iowa State should be a close game in my opinion, I just think ISU is playing with a confidence right now.

The ACC is having somewhat of a down year, but could have a couple interesting games this week. Clemson travels to UNC to face the Tar Heels in a game that features two underacheiving teams, the Tar Heels are getting their core players back every week though. The game to watch is FSU at Miami. This match-up will be centered around 2 big time QB prospects in FSU’s Christian Ponder and Miami’s Jacory Harris. The QB that has the best game will lead his team to a win.

Finally we get to the SEC. Possibly the 2 biggest games of the week are held here, I could probably write that every week. Alabama travels to South Carolina, if the GameCocks can stop the Bama rushing attack they have a very good chance. Ingram rushed for close to 250 yards last year in a 20-6 Tide victory. LSU heads to Gainesville, FL to face the Gators. This game should be a very close low scoring battle because both teams have speed to burn on defense and very shaky offenses.

The NFL Mocks crew will be in and out all day today, so use this as an open thread for any college football discussions you would like to have.  No matter what game you are watching, there is always a Draft prospect to keep an eye on!
