College Football Week 5:

Week 5 loomed large as the week following the week which came after the week after Monster Saturday.  I continued my unsuccessful upset alert picks(I would like to personally thank Washington for the win this week), yet:

-Oregon is still good: People thought the Ducks were finished this season without Jeremiah Masoli.  They were a perennial top 5 team with Masoli, but I had dropped them to #10 in my Preseason rankings.  The Ducks are now #3 and looking like the best offensive unit in the country.  Oregon may now be the favorite to face Alabama in the BCS Championship Game with Ohio State having a little trouble @ Illinois....Hey if they keep Boise out, why not?

-Bama better be cautious: Auburn has climbed to #8 and LSU has crept to #12.  Already dispatching of #11 Arkansas, the Tide are 1/3 of the way through what looks like the toughest SEC West ever.

-I am guaranteeing 2 wins in upset alert this week, so be ready for that.

-It doesn't get any easier for OSU: Illinois was supposedly the 2nd worst team in the Big-10...My pick looks to be in trouble.

-Denard Robinson is the Heisman favorite: I have preached a vague Heisman race this year, but Michigan's Dreadlocked Dasher has broken away from the pack.  If he continues his ridiculous pace with 1,913 combined rushing (905) and passing (1,008) yards he might save the Wolverines from another embarrassing season and Rich Rod's job.

-The best game this week will be Michigan against Michigan State: It is the biggest rivalry of the week and both teams enter rolling.  MSU is hotter, but the game is at Michigan.  I will put the line at Michigan +3 and 65 points.

In Conclusion: College Football is so much better than the NFL, especially with the flaw that is Fantasy Football....Second in my league in points, but 1-3 due to my 666 points against, which leads by 74...Gah!
