Week 4 9/23 (SAT)

The Hawkeyes stunned the nation late last season and this could be the game they do the same yet again. The Nittany Lions are much more loaded so we shall see how the secondary holds up. Throw in the video game matchups between TCU-Oklahoma State and Texas A&M-Arkansas for some offense.

UCLA-Stanford and NC State-Florida State could be defensive battles, and I wonder just how relevant the Irish and Sparty will be. It wasn’t long ago where that was must watch television. Maybe if Notre Dame can take over we will start to see more competitive games from these two. Last year the Irish tried a late rally and it was too little too late. They just need to focus on controlling the line of scrimmage better.

NC State at Florida State; TCU at Oklahoma State; Arkansas vs Texas A&M (Arlington); Texas Tech at Houston; Oklahoma at Baylor; Mississippi State at Georgia; UCLA at Stanford; Washington at Colorado; Notre Dame at Michigan State; Penn State at Iowa.
