I was sort of pumped for the Iowa-Wisconsin night game at Camp Randall on ABC.

Then Iowa lost to 5 field goals by Iowa State.

I am no longer pumped for this game, it could/should get ugly.

Wisconsin has looked less than impressive this year. There may be hope for Iowa...

My Games for the week:
South Carolina/LSU- Another ranked team for LSU to dismantle?
MSU/Notre Dame- Notre Dame finds ways to lose this game
Penn St./Michigan- should tell us where Michigan is
Washington/UCLA- Possible Holiday/Rose Bowl implications
SMU/TCU- major homer rivalry pick, but remember SMU ruined TCU's 2005 season
Iowa/Wisconsin- Iowa has a great shot at winning this game

Edited. Thanks Sonny.

Kentucky/Arkansas - Was Louisville a fluke?
Georgia/Alabama - Are either of these teams legit? I'm not convinced they're as good as their rankings.

Which bubble teams break into the Top 25 after this week?

Is Va Tech overrated even at #18 ... the LSU game wasn't even close (aside from the fact that LSU is a #1 contender at the moment) and who is Eastern Carolina ... even that game was too close for me to have any faith in the Hokie birds.

What's the deal with Texas? Obviously I have a bias, but seriously, #7 barely pulls out games against ArkState and UCF? Just breaking into the new season or setting everyone up for an upset and if so, who does it?

Are Hawaii, Kentucky and South Florida legit?
The warriors boast an impressive passing offense while South Florida continues to impress. As for Kentucky, at the very least they have a solid QB.

Upset watch for this weekend?

I'm hoping Arkansas State upsets UT to seal Fulmer's fate.

A&M losing to Miami is not a good sign for the Aggies in the Big 12. I am beginning to think that it could be a one horse race with OU in the lead.

A&M was hella overrated to begin with. they squeaked by a weak Fresno State team in 3OT.
