Memphis (-7, 56) @ Tulane 7:30 pm (ESPN) - As conference play takes shape, the Memphis Tigers appear to be the class of this year’s version of the American with a 5-1 record and off to a 2-0 start in conference action.
Tulane is 0-1 in the American after last week’s 20-17 loss to Army. The Green Wave couldn’t stop the run, but hung in against the cadets. Tulane doesn’t appear to possess the offensive firepower to hang with the Tigers though both of their wins have come at home.
Coin Flip: Memphis
Fearless Rick’s Pick: Tigers 28 Green Wave 17
Washington got schooled by #20 Iowa last week, 41-24, and the Huskies are 0-3 in the Big Ten. The suffer from defensive lapses though the offense can create scoring opportunities. Long trip east looks like a tough sport for the Huskies.
Coin Flip: Purdue
Fearless Rick’s Pick: Boilermakers 38 Huskies 21
4 Ohio State (-3, 51) @ 5 Indiana 12:00 pm (FOX) - Big Showdown in the Big Ten which may help determine CFP participants down the line. The Buckeyes have dominated in every contest except their 24-23 loss at Texas.
The main concern for the Hoosiers will be covering Ohio State’s Heisman favorite, Jeremiah Smith. After their close call last week at Nebraska, eventually pulling out a 20-17 win, lack of pressure up front may lead to open receivers downfield for the Buckeyes. While both teams are 3-0 in conference play, Ohio State appears to have advantages on both sides of the ball.
Coin Flip: Indiana
Fearless Rick’s Pick: Buckeyes 27 Hoosiers 17
Florida has concerns on defense after losing two straight by big scores, 45-17 at Missouri, and, 38-19 versus South Carolina last week. This is a big test for both teams, but the Longhorns get to play at home and will be all out to erase last week’s disaster. Texas may not be the best team in the SEC, but they have the ability to shut down opponent offenses.
Coin Flip: Florida
Fearless Rick’s Pick: Longhorns 38 Gators 20
