Thursday, October 18th
Georgia State (2-4; 1-1) at Arkansas State (3-3; 0-2)- 7:30, ESPNU
Pick: Arkansas State
Stanford (4-2; 2-1) at Arizona State (3-3; 2-1)- 10:30, ESPN: Bryce Love is not healthy and the Cardinal offense has not been good lately. Herm Edwards gets a big win at home.
Pick: Arizona State
Friday, October 19th
Colorado State (3-4; 2-1) at Boise State (4-2; 2-1)- 9:00, ESPN2
Pick: Boise State
Air Force (2-4; 0-3) at UNLV (2-4; 0-2)- 10:00, CBSSN
Pick: UNLV
Saturday, October 20th
(6) Michigan (6-1; 4-0) at (20) Michigan State (4-2; 2-1)- 12:00, FOX: Like I said a week ago, Sparty is Jekkyl And Hyde. They either lose badly or win outright. They won outright last week, but I can totally see a letdown against an improved Wolverines team.
Pick: Michigan
(9) Oklahoma (5-1; 2-1) at TCU (3-3; 1-2)- 12:00, ABC: Trap game for the Sooners? Maybe. I think they survive here.

Pick: Iowa
(20) Cincinnati (6-0; 2-0) at Temple (4-3; 3-0)- 12:00, ESPNU: Do the Bearcats finally suffer their first loss of the season? I say yes.

Pick: Western Michigan
(1) Alabama (7-0; 4-0) at Tennessee (3-3; 1-2)- 3:30, CBS: Due to the injury to Tua Tagovailoa, this game will be closer than the experts think as the Tide still get the road win.
Pick: Alabama
(16) NC State (5-0; 2-0) at (3) Clemson (6-0; 3-0)- 3:30, ESPN: This game in all likelihood decides the Atlantic Division and the Tigers take it in a close one over Ryan Finley and the Wolfpack.
Pick: Clemson
Colorado (5-1; 2-1) at (15) Washington (5-2; 3-1)- 3:30, FOX: The Huskies get the bounce back win here after the tough OT loss in Eugene.
Pick: Washington
(18) Penn State (4-2; 1-2) at Indiana (4-3; 1-3)- 3:30, ABC: Trap game for the Nittany Lions? Possibly. But, I see a bounce back after the tough loss against Michigan State.

Pick: Texas Tech
Memphis (4-3; 1-3) at Missouri (3-3; 0-3)- 4:00, SECN: I do think that Memphis can steal this game, but Missouri has the better quarterback in Drew Lock and they'll get the win.
Pick: Missouri
California (3-3; 0-3) at Oregon State (1-5; 0-3)- 4:00, Pac-12N: Upset special in Corvallis as Jonathan Smith gets his first conference win.

Pick: Georgia Southern
Mississippi State (4-2; 1-2) at (5) LSU (6-1; 3-1)- 7:00, ESPN: Possible letdown spot for the Tigers, but I say they win a close one in a nighttime home game.

Pick: Ohio State
(12) Oregon (5-1; 2-1) at (25) Washington State (5-1; 2-1)- 7:30, FOX: GameDay finally heads to Pullman. Fifteen years in the making. The Ol Crimson Flag. You know the story. Now the question is, will they Coug it? It's possible with Justin Herbert making a case to be a top three pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, but I say Pullman is rocking and the Cougars don't Coug it.
Pick: Washington State
Vanderbilt (3-4; 0-4) at (14) Kentucky (5-1; 3-1)- 7:30, SECN
Pick: Kentucky
Fresno State (5-1; 2-0) at New Mexico (3-3; 1-1)- 7:30, ESPNU
