Cuse preview and highlights of the college slate

Cuse and Louisville in less than an hour and lets hope Marrone can carry some momentum from last week into today, and Nassib continues to lead this apparently high powered offense. Cuse and Louisville have the same Big East record at 1-1. A loss for either will probably eliminate that team from title contention, and god help the Big East team that gets to go play Clemson in the BCS. Louisville's QB Teddy Bridgewater isn't great but not not terrible either, with pedestrian stats in completion %, yards, and TDs. The Cardinals use three running backs and rely on the ground game to set up their offense. I guess they upset, if you can call it that, Rutgers last week 16-14. The more I watch the teams in this conference the more I realize that there's no such thing as an upset. Everyone can beat everyone. Which is to say every team is incredibly mediocre relative to the rest of the conferences in the country. Cuse needs this win as much as any other game so lets drop 50 more today on the Cards.

Not much else today in terms of must see games. The biggest game will be number 9 Oklahoma vs. number 8 and undefeated Kansas St. Oklahoma looking to right the ship after their tough shootout loss to Texas Tech last week, which also seriously damaged their title chances. Game is in the other Manhattan but Stoops will have his guys motivated to come out and play.

For an upset I'll take USC at home over Stanford. Don't get me wrong Andrew Luck is easily the best quarterback in the country and their offense's lowest scoring output was 37 at Arizona. They just dropped 65 on #25 Washington. But this is the primetime ABC game tonight and the Rose Bowl is going to be packed. USC has played a tougher schedule than Stanford and come out at 6-1 with a loss to ASU.  The Trojans will be riding high and I think they'll step up to the plate and Matt Barkley will take down the Cardinal and end Stanford's title hopes.

Michigan State and Nebraska in the suddenly wide open B1G. A loss for Nebraska will end their B1G title game hopes.

Enjoy the games and go Cuse.
