I think Iowa tramples Penn State at home next week. Penn State has looked good against "good" teams such as Auburn, Wisconsin....but those teams are suspect. I think they get punched in the face next week
Same with Oklahoma....OU has been hanging on, barely beating Nebraska, West Virginia, Kansas State, TULANE.....Texas wallops them next week

records don't matter when UT and OU play.
But, I know.. Texas usually plays BETTER against OU. I Like our chances.

Penn State has already gone to Wisconsin and won. I think they have a comparable defense but their offense is better than Iowa's. If the game was at PSU this would be an easy pick but Iowa is going to salute the cancer kids at the end of the first quarter which always pumps them up. Still, I think the Nits go on the road and win a close one.
I'm with Bevo - throw out the records and previous performances when OU plays Texas. I'll be rooting for Texas but not sure I'd bet this game.
I think the Georgia/Auburn game will be closer than expected. Not sold on the Georgia offense but Auburn will need to score in the 20's - not sure if they can do that without a little help from the Bulldogs.
An interesting game is Michigan at Nebraska - the Huskers seem to be building some momentum and Michigan's offense is very vanilla. The Wolverines defense is playing well but the Huskers will score some points. Can Michigan??

My takes:
I think Oklahoma is playing not to loose and they seem very tight. I fully expect Texas to come in guns loaded and put it to OU.
I think Iowa made a huge commitment to the passing attack and they looked great last weekend. I think home field is more than enough for them to get the W
UGA's D looks really good and they certainly have a good running game. There passing game needs to be just mediocre and they will handle Auburn
Agreed on Nebraska. Nebraska certainly look like they are playing much better and this games means everything for this program.
This week betting on both BAMA and tOSU to cover and over.
Other games that seem like good picks
BYU cover Boise St
Baylor to cover WVU

Our tackle, Okafor, who was injured in the TCU game is OUT for the season. Not good.
My biggest concern is, our receivers. They have GROSSLY UNDERPERFORMED so far this year.
But, I think our defense is good. And, I think we will have the BEST player on the field, Bijan Robinson. I hope that makes the difference.

Clemson is basically a M*A*S*H unit right now, and the bye week is well-timed.
Clemson has 20 players on the injured list. Never been this high before.

Iowa could be the most under-appreciated program the past few years:
• 31-9 record since 2018
• Currently on a 15-2 run
• Most INT in FBS, since 2017
• Most Turnovers in FBS, since 2017
• Held 27 straight opponents under 25 points (longest active FBS streak)
