The college football season is ramping up after a few big games last week. Georgia took care of business over Clemson who has a tough game this week against Appalachian St. Miami dismantled Florida who will be making a change at quarterback. And Notre Dame defeated Texas A&M on the road and are 28.5 point favorites this week against Northern Illinois. LSU fell to USC who looks like they have found their next QB while Boston College knocked off Florida State who starts the season 0-2.

This week there are some huge games with playoff implications. Starting with the defending national champion Michigan Wolverine's host the Texas Longhorns at the Big House. Colorado are 7 point underdogs at Nebraska who havent won a big game since the 1990's. Can an ACC team actually compete with an SEC team? We will find out when Tennessee goes to NC State. We have a in state rivalry as Iowa hosts Iowa state in what should be a defensive battle. Oklahoma State will host Arkansas which is a good challenge for the Cowboys. We get a good look at Utah as they take on Baylor as two touchdown favorites. I'm intrigued to see what Kansas can do on the road at Illinois.
