Bold Predictions: Week 8

[IronHorseSooner]

Well, I might as well start this.

I see 4 top 10 teams losing this week:

1. Rutgers over USF: 21-17. USF now goes on the road, against a team who has the athletes and coaching to beat them, with the target on their backs. This is also a night game. This SCREAMS upset.
2. VT over BC: 28-17. I don't know how much of an upset this would be. VT is clearly the better team. It's in Blacksburg, and VT is playing a lot better than they did early in the year. This game may not be as close as the prediction.
3. Auburn over :les: : 14-10. :les: goes on a two game losing streak. Auburn did it once (UF), they can do it again. LSU's offense is not impressive (UK's defense is not very good). Auburn is a hot team right now (and might be the best in the SEC).
4. UF over UK: 35-28. UF has a MUCH better offense than LSU and can keep Woodson on the sidelines. UF has had an extra week to prep for this, and now UK has the target on them.

All four of those are possible and would be totally SWEET!

[SoonerStormchaser]

It's a longshot, but don't totally discount Meechigan State at tOSU.

[The_Red_Patriot]

That would be simply amazing.


I probrably would shart myself

[OUmillenium]

Oh what fun if those pan out. Even if just a few upsets occur I will be happy.

[stoopified]

IHorse is right,these are all distinct possiblities.I don't know if they will happen but they sure could.I'd be happy if just 2 of them happened,any 2.

[Boomer.....]

I can see the first 2 happening.

[Malcolm Kelly's Cousin]

It is the year of upsets, so why the hell not?

[BoomerGirl34]

The Scarlet Knights of Rutgers wave their magic cape and beat the USF Bulls!

[AZSoonerCat]

I like Rutgers over a USF team that will fall prey to the new-to-the-limelight bug that bit Rutgers several weeks ago.

I haven't seen BC play all year but here's hoping VT can bring 'em down.

And the gutsiest pick of the year for me - Arizona over Stanford in the battle of the pac 10 basement dwellers.:eek:

[Desert Sapper]

I'm going to buy in on the first two.

Thursday nights are murder on top teams. Couple that with psychotic Jets (er, I mean, Scarlet Knights *cough*) fans in Piscataway, and it looks rough for the Bulls.

I can see Va Tech playing at their potential in Blacksburg at night and knocking BC the **** out.

I don't see Auburn traveling to BR and winning.

Kentucky will have a let down after their 3OT victory.

I definitely don't see Mich State traveling to the shoe and beating tOSU.

[Desert Sapper]

Oh yeah...BC is at Va Tech next Thursday.

[SoonerLB]

I like the way you think!
Auburn will have to actually score some points though, LOL! ;)

[EnidHighSooner]

Yep i'm thinking the first to will happen. We have a good chance of making it to the NC.

[Ash]

And the gutsiest pick of the year for me - Arizona over Stanford in the battle of the pac 10 basement dwellers.:eek:

I'll take the team who beat SUC on the road over the team that lost to New Mexico at home. ;)

[Sooner Coolkat]

I'm ready to see South Florida lose! BC is also not ready for prime time and the pollsters will show you how they really feel when BC loses a game.

[Crucifax Autumn]

I think they'll all happen.

[BoomerGirl34]

Michigan State will upset tOSU.

Barely.

[85sooners]

:pop:

[illinisooner]

Auburn has a record of something ridiculous like 15-1 in its' last 16 SEC road games. I wouldn't rule out them winning at LSU.

[goingoneight]

All of these teams who were pizzing us off after the Colorado game, saying bull**** like "the Red River "Game" :mad: isn't for anything special," and "OU is overrated" are starting to find themselves humbled with the reality that they, too are human.
