Fearless Rick & Coin Flip NCAA Week 14 Late Games All times Eastern 3:30 pm 5 Notre Dame (-7.5, 51) at USC (CBS) - Notre Dame, unless they're completely blown out by the Trojans, are still likely to be ranked in the top 12 in the CFP rankings, but they sure look like big winners against 6-5 USC. The Trojans beat crosstown rival UCLA last week, 19-13, but the Irish are a different story. Notre Dame has won each of their last six contests by at least 18 points. Coin Flip: USC Fearless Rick's Pick: Fighting Irish 34 Trojans 17
The Hurricanes are just one Georgia Tech loss from perfection this season and are likely to light up the scoreboard, but their defense will also allow Syracuse multiple trips to the end zone. If the Orange keep the mistakes to a minimum, they could produce a major upset. Coin Flip: Miami Fearless Rick's Pick: Hurricanes 38 Orange 34
Coin Flip: SMU Fearless Rick's Pick: Mustangs 35 Golden Bears 10
Auburn has different plans. They need a win to get into a bowl game and this, being an enormous rivalry is their ticket to the post-season. While they're just 5-6, they're not bad, last week winning 43-41 in four OTs over Texas A&M. They'll give Alabama more than they expect. Coin Flip: Alabama Fearless Rick's Pick: Tigers 38 Crimson Tide 35
They're unlikely to encounter much resistance from Arizona, The Wildcats are just 2-6 in conference and 4-7 overall. Five different Big 12 teams have topped the Wildcats by at least 21 points. Should be a piece of cake for Arizona State. Coin Flip: Arizona State Fearless Rick's Pick: Sun Devils 38 Wildcats 17
Oregon has multiple offensive weapons and an improving defense which will make life difficult for the Washington offense. This one could be over by half time though the Ducks have to stay focused rather than looking ahead to a rematch with Ohio State in next week's Big Ten championship. Coin Flip: Washington Fearless Rick's Pick: Ducks 38 Huskies 6
The Aggies have had this game circled since the schedule came out in the Spring and getting the Longhorns on their home turf adds to their confidence. Texas has looked iffy at times this season, but who hasn't? The Aggies will pull off the upset and take their chances next week. Coin Flip: Texas Fearless Rick's Pick: Aggies 27 Longhorns 24
The 9-2 Cyclones can pretty much play their way in. They'll need help, but not as much as the Jayhawks. Most scenarios favor them and Arizona State. Iowa State may know their destiny by game time, with only BYU playing later. They should make the most of it. Coin Flip: Iowa State Fearless Rick's Pick: Cyclones 27 Wildcats 21
Depending on the scenario, this could go any which way, but Houston looks just good enough to cover the spread in this all-Cougar match-up. Watch the line, as it could move quite a bit depending on circumstances. Coin Flip: Houston Fearless Rick's Pick: BYU Cougars 30 Houston Cougars 20
