Welcome back college football fans!
 
Rules: I pick Top 25 teams playing each other.  It's not fair to pick a ranked team over a "cupcake".  I challenge myself in picking games between ranked powers.  I also pick some local favorites, i.e. Syracuse (mine), Rutgers (Kathleen's team), etc.  (Steve doesn't follow college football.)

I don't know what to make of Rutgers other than the fact that they are a disappointing 1-5 going into today's game at home.  Rutgers played in a bowl game last season so I'm not sure what is going on.

Top 25 Match ups:

#1 Texas holds off a tough Missouri team.

#4 Oklahoma bounces back from their disappointing loss to Texas last week and beats #16 Kansas at home.

#10 Georgia beats #22 Vanderbilt at home. 

#12 Ohio State goes into Lansing and beats #20 Michigan State.

Local Teams:
Syracuse loses at #19 South Florida.

Connecticut wins at Rutgers.  By recent reputation, you would think that Rutgers would be 5-1 and Connecticut would be 1-5.  Coach Schiano is a very good coach who recruits well.  Beware of a Rutgers upset.
