What a Waste Money - College Football Games of the Week

Football players have iPads in lockers
Don't get me wrong, I think it's admirable that he gave 2 million to Nebraska.  Suh, now with the Detroit Lions, was one of those exceptional student athletes who excelled in the classroom and on the field.  However, you might as well buy them iphones, include a stipend for them to buy apps, and throw in an i-touch.  Why not pay their phone bills as well.  So, I already know what you are going to say.  It's his money and he can do whatever he wants.  I hope the entire 2 million didn't go to just that.  And now we wonder why some student athletes are so spoiled and feel as though everybody owe them something.  According to the NCAA, only 1 percent of college athletes will go on to play professionally.  I guess Ndamukong Suh just so happen to be in the number...

Last Week 3-2
Overall 11-6

Games of the Week
 
Clemson at North Carolina
Every time I think of UNC's win streak, I think of OJ the Juiceman..."I'm Boomin, I'm Bunkin!"  The defense has definitely found their swagger and if the offense and match their intensity every game, this can be a good football team (see ECU game).  Clemson played a good game last week but lost a game they could have won in my opinion.  We get one more defensive star back...and one more victory...Go Heels 28-21
 
No. 17 Michigan State at No. 18 Michigan 
Welcome to Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood. This guy is unbelievable and unless he gets hurts, he will be the Heisman trophy winner, regardless if Michigan win games another game.  I'm thinking this may be an evenly matched game and a win by either team makes them the front runner to catch Ohio State.  It's a toss up, home team prevails...UM 38-31
 
No. 12 LSU at No. 14 Florida
The fiasco that happen last weekend vs. UTK will not happen again.  LSU's offense has been suspect all year.  I anticipate Florida jumping ahead early and forcing LSU to throw the ball and complete a pass.  The fan in me says go Tigers, the wanna be analysis in me says the Gators have the edge...UF 27-10
 
No. 1 Alabama at No. 19 South Carolina
I wouldn't have this game up if I didn't think USC had a chance to win.  I think they do.  For everyone who thinks the Tide will run through the SEC, impossible.  The truth is they should have lost against Arkansas.  If Steve Spurrier win this game, he should retire just to say he went out on top...Gamecocks 21-20
 
HBCU Game of the Week
Tuskegee at Morehouse
Morehouse comes in ranked #16 in the American Football Coaches Association poll.  Tuskegee is not far behind them having lost just one game.  I would love to be a fly hanging around the tailgate of this match up.  It's the 75th Annual Tuskegee-Morehouse Football Classic.  I can only imagine...Morehouse 31-27
