College Football Preview

12:00
#8 Ohio State at #25 Minnesota
The Buckeyes(8-1) are coming off of a huge win at Michigan State. Led by Freshman QB JT Barrett and Sophomore DT Joey Bosa, the Bucks have defied expections after star QB Braxton Miller was lost for the season in August. The Gophers(7-2) are led by Senior RB David Cobb, who has over 1,000 yards rushing. I think that Ohio State will pull away late, and win this one by at least 2 touchdowns.

Winner: Ohio State

#19 Clemson at #22 Georgia Tech
The Tigers are led by Sophmore Reciever Mike Williams, while the Yellow Jackets and their Triple Option offense QB Justin Thomas. It will be close, but I think Thomas will be the difference for the Jackets in this one.

Winner: Georiga Tech

3:30
#16 Nebraska at #20 Wisconsin
2 of the best runningbacks in the country will square off in this one. Both Wisconsin's Melvin Gordon and Nebraska's Ameer Abdulla are in the hunt for the Heisman. This is an even game, but beating the Badgers in Madinson is not easy and I don't think the Huskers will be an exception.

Winner: Wisconsin

#1 Mississippi State at #5 Alabama
The biggest game of the day, this one is too close to call. The Bulldogs are led by QB Dak Prescott, who is in the Heisman race. #5 Alabama is coming off a big come from behind win at LSU, and is led by another Heisman candidate in WR Amari Cooper. It will be a tough game, but MSU has been shaky at times during the season which concerns me, and they do not fair well in Tuscaloosa, and I think Cooper will make a huge difference.

Winner: Amari Cooper

7:15
#9 Auburn at #15 Georgia
Auburn is coming off of a upset at the hands of Texas A&M, while Georgia is getting a huge boost with the return of stud RB Todd Gurley. QB Nick Marshall and the Tigers will have their hands full in Athens. I think that the return of Gurley, along with Auburn being, in my opinion, overrated, will doom the Tigers.

Winner: Auburn.
