Fearless Rick & Coin Flip NCAA Week 3 Late Games
All times Eastern
18 South Florida at 5 Miami (-17.5, 57.5) 4:30 pm (CW) - Miami’s Week 1 win over Notre Dame put them on the map and there’s little doubt that Carson Beck is back on track as one of the country’s best QBs.
South Florida has already pulled off a pair of shockers, defeating Boise State 34-7, and last week surviving in the swamp with an 18-16 win over the Florida Gators. They’ve proven they can play with the big boys, so this will tell just how good both teams are. The Hurricanes overwhelmed South Florida last season, 50-15, but the Bulls are a much improved team this season. If the Bulls’ defense stays disciplined it should get interesting. The points are a must-have.
Coin Flip: Miami
Fearless Rick’s Pick: Hurricanes 28 Bulls 13
As expected, the Razorbacks pummeled their first two tune-up opponents, and open SEC play as road dogs, though they may be better than expected They held their own in the conference last season, going 3-5, but had close losses to Texas A&M, Texas and Missouri. Given that Jaxson Dart is no longer the QB for Ole Miss, Arkansas is worth a shot with the TD spread.
Coin Flip: Ole Miss
Fearless Rick’s Pick: Arkansas 31 Ole Miss 24
The Gators were upended at home last week, which was not a surprise to everybody. South Florida is an up-and-coming program and the Gators were ambushed. Florida won this match-up last season, in Gainesville, 27-16. A different outcome is expected down in the Bayou.
Coin Flip: Florida
Fearless Rick’s Pick: Tigers 34 Gators 16
The Irish have had two weeks to prepare for this contest and it is their home opener. This could be the last ranked opponent the Irish face this season, so they surely understand the need to post a victory here.
Coin Flip: Texas A&M
Fearless Rick’s Pick: Fighting Irish 28 Aggies 17
The Commodores did end poorly, however, with losses to South Carolina (28-7), LSU and Tennessee. They’re a better team this season, and the Gamecocks haven’t yet hit full stride, but will likely be well-prepared for this test.
Coin Flip: Vanderbilt
Fearless Rick’s Pick: Gamecocks 34 Commodores 27
