2. #12 South Florida vs. UCONN
PICK: UCONN RESULT: UCONN 22-15 South Florida suffered their 2nd consecutive loss. UCONN takes over first place in the Big East.
3. #20 California vs. #7 Arizona State
PICK: California RESULT: Arizona State 31-20 Cal jumped out to a 20-7 lead before the Sun Devils delivered Cal their third consecutive loss. This game earned some respect for Arizona State, for those including myself who doubted their early season success. Arizona State goes for even more respect next week against Oregon.
4. #8 USC vs. #5 Oregon
PICK: Oregon RESULT: Oregon 24-17 Oregon makes a statement in their quest for the BCS championship game led by RB Jonathan Stewart and QB Dennis Dixon. USC is eliminated from any BCS hopes. Next up is basically a Pac 10 elimination game with Arizona State.

5. #1 Ohio State vs. #22 Penn State
PICK: Ohio State RESULT: Ohio State 37-17 Ohio State rolled over Penn State quieting some doubters of the Buckeyes #1 rating.
