Another great day of college football is in store! According ESPN's college pick'ems slate, here is my best game, most confident, least confident game.
Least Confident: Texas over TCU
Florida-Tennessee is a close second in this category, but this game is truly this week's wild card. Texas obliterated USC at home last week, which gave many Longhorn fans confidence going into their first game of conference play. TCU however, solidified their spot as one one of college football's top tier teams by hanging with Ohio State for 3 quarters. Home field advantage should play a major factor here which is why I went with the Horns.
Most Confident: Notre Dame over Wake Forest
Notre Dame regains my most confident spot because this team is truly on fire. Their opening win over Michigan has given way to a 3-0 start and although each win has come by only 7 points or less, the Irish come into this matchup as the overwhelming favorite. One of the biggest reasons for that is QB Brandon Wimbush who has 589 yards passing and 136 yards rushing. Watch out for the Irish!
Best Game: Wisconsin @ Iowa
Although we're only in week 4, this game could very well decide the winner of the Big 10 West. Both coaches know how to get their teams prepared and both quarterbacks (Alex Hornibrook, Wisconsin and Nathan Stanley, Iowa) have plenty of experience which means this game will probably end up as an offensive battle. This means defense will be the x-factor and as Iowa's defensive line and linebackers are always some of the best in the Big 10, I'm taking Iowa in this one.
