Busy the next couple of days, so I'm going to pick Thursday & Friday and than get Saturday pick's in either later tonight or Friday:
Connecticut vs. Houston. As a UConn fan I'm not expecting much from this game. The defense is OK, so if they can keep it within a touchdown I'll be extremely thrilled with that result.
Stanford vs. Washington. When it doubt, pick the top dog, and the top dog is Stanford.

UCF vs.
East Carolina. East Carolina has burned me the last 2 weeks in a row, if they burn me again at home they are officially going on the $#!t list for the rest of the year.
Miami vs. Georgia Tech. That offense is tough to prepare for, but the Hurricanes are rolling, hard to pick against them.
Notre Dame vs. Syracuse. Syracuse will get a TON of yards on offense, but I don't think ND is 1-4 bad, I think they'll eek one out at the end.
Northwestern vs.
Iowa. If this was at Northwestern I might pick the Wildcats since the Hawkeyes looked like $#!t at Rutgers last week, but I'll take the 'Eyes at home.
Texas vs. Oklahoma State. I'll take Texas and the over for $500 please Alex.
Virginia vs.
Duke. ND isn't good, but going into South Bend and winning is great for a program like Duke, so I think the momentum continues against a hapless Virginia team.
Oregon State vs.
Colorado. Oregon is another program that is a shell of itself, but I was impressed by the Buffs going in there and winning, they'll continue against the dumpster fire from Corvallis.
North Carolina vs. Florida State. They are going to get eaten alive by Cook because the run defense is atrocious, but I've been saying they would win for the last 4 weeks, so why would I flip flop now even though they are going to lose?? I'd rather take the loss with integrity than take the cheap win by flip flopping like politicians!
Tennessee vs.
Georgia. I'll bite here. Even though the last 5 matchups have all been decided by 1 possession, Tennessee hasn't won in Athens since 2006, and have only beaten Georgia 6 times since Manning left school. I'll take the recent numbers.
Wisconsin vs.
Michigan. I agree with you Southern Tiger I don't think Michigan State is a top 10 team. It's also proven Notre Dame isn't good and Wisconsin's opening opponent, LSU isn't good either. IMO, Wisconsin is a severely overranked team. I'd take Michigan in Wisconsin too, at home it almost seems too easy. I'll go Wolverines by 17+.
Wake Forest vs. NC State. I have no idea, but Wake Forest seems to be pretty good this year.
Minnesota vs.
Penn State. If Penn State loses this one, James Franklin may not even last the weekend.
Kansas State vs.
West Virginia. Get Virginia to 1-0 in conference play.
Oklahoma vs.
TCU. TCU STILL can't stop anyone, but Oklahoma is another team that's a shell of it's former self.
Utah vs.
Cal. Interesting game. I'll take the Bears at home.
USF vs.
Cincinnati. Another game that's a guess for me too.
Memphis vs.
Ole Miss. Ole Miss is not good so this will be a lot closer than people think, though I do think Ole Miss will end.
Missouri vs.
LSU. I know they aren't good but if they can't beat Mizzou at home....Team usually play well for a couple weeks after a coaching change in season.
Louisville vs.
Clemson. Since the previous 2 people pick Louisville. Also, I know Louisville is really, really, good, but Death Valley, at night, give me the Tigers.
Michigan State vs. Indiana. Sparty bounces back.
Arizona State vs.
USC. These have actually been really close and exciting games the last couple of years.
Oregon vs.
Washington State. Two disappointing teams, I'll go with the Cougs at the Paloose.
Arizona vs.
UCLA. Bruins at home.
