Pick: Clemson

(8) Washington State (6-0; 3-0) at California (3-3; 0-3)- 10:30, ESPN: This has all the makings of an upset.... I just can't do it though. Give me the Cougars in a closer game than the experts think.

Saturday, October 14th
(6) TCU (5-0; 2-0) at Kansas State (3-2; 1-1)- 12:00, FS1: If Jesse Ertz were playing, I'd pick the upset. Give me the Horned Frogs to remain unbeaten.

Pick: South Carolina

Kansas (1-4; 0-2) at Iowa State (3-2; 1-1)- 12:00, FS1: Kinda wish the Cyclones were playing anybody else other than the Jayhawks and make a case for a let down loss after a huge win in Norman. But instead, I'll take the Cyclones in a game where I believe the Jayhawks hang around for a half.

Pick: Iowa State

Connecticut (1-4; 0-3) at Temple (3-3; 1-2)- 12:00, ESPNEWS

(10) Auburn (5-1; 3-0) at LSU (4-2; 1-1)- 3:30, CBS: The LSU Tigers deserve credit for winning at The Swamp last week, but I think they're in for a rude awakening here against a very good Auburn Tigers team.

Pick: Miami

(12) Oklahoma (4-1; 1-1) vs Texas (3-2; 2-0)- (Dallas); 3:30, ESPN: The Longhorns are arguably better than their record, but I like Baker Mayfield and the Sooners to rebound from that horrendous loss against the Iowa State Cyclones.

Baylor (0-5; 0-2) at (14) Oklahoma State (4-1; 1-1)- 3:30, FS1
Pick: Oklahoma State

Pick: South Florida

Utah (4-1; 1-1) at (13) USC (5-1; 3-1)- 8:00, ABC: The Utes aren't a bad team, but expect the Trojans to pull away late here.
Pick: USC

(21) Michigan State (4-1; 2-0) at Minnesota (3-2; 0-2)- 8:00, BTN: You'd think this game screams letdown for Sparty after the big win in Ann Arbor, but I'll say the Spartans win..... barely.
Pick: Michigan State

UCLA (3-2; 1-1) at Arizona (3-2; 1-1)- 9:00, Pac-12N: Josh Rosen is the difference here as the Bruins win in Tuscon.

Boise State (3-2; 1-0) at (19) San Diego State (6-0; 2-0)- 10:30, CBSSN: The Broncos aren't the same team as in years past and right now the best team in the MWC is the Aztecs, who will win this game and make a statement and prove that ranking.
Pick: San Diego State

(5) Washington (6-0; 3-0) at Arizona State (2-3; 1-1)- 10:45, ESPN: The Aztecs pulled an upset over the Oregon Ducks earlier in the season, but this Huskies team is better than the Ducks, especially defensively.
Pick: Washington

Oregon (4-2; 1-2) at Stanford (4-2; 3-1)- 11:00, FS1: These two teams always seem to play close games and I believe that will be the case again and Bryce Love will be the difference here for the Cardinal yet again.

Pick: Hawaii
