College Football: Rivalry Week Preview

It is rivalry week in College Football. Let's get into some of the matchups.

12:00
Michigan (5-6) at #6 Ohio State (10-1)
One of the most storied rivalries in all of sports is not what it used to be. The Buckeyes have won 11 of the past 13 matchups against ''The Team Up North'', and Saturday won't be much different. QB JT Barrett and the Buckeyes will roll, and it will most likely be Brady Hoke's last game on the sidelines for Michigan.

Winner: Ohio State

South Carolina(6-5) at #23 Clemson(8-3)
The Tigers have struggled with Steve Spurrier and the Gamecocks in recent years, but that will change tomorrow. I expect Clemson to play inspired football and win quite handily, as this will be the end to a disappointing season for USC.

Winner: Clemson

#16 Georgia Tech(9-2) at #9 Georgia(9-2)
Georgia Tech's triple option offense could cause problems for the Georiga defense. However, I believe that Geroiga is better defensivly then Tech is, and runningback Nick Chubb will be the difference for the Dawgs.
Winner: Georgia

3:30
#4 Mississippi State(10-1) at #19 Ole Miss(8-3)
Once a team that looked like a playoff contender, Ole Miss has fallen on hard times, with tough losses to Auburn and Arkansas. Meanwhile, Mississippi State, led by QB Dak Prescott, will most likely need a win to get into the playoffs. I have a feeling that Ole Miss will pull off the upset tomorrow. I think the Rebels will play very hard since they have nothing to lose, and im still not sold on MSU as a top team.

Winner: Ole Miss

Florida(6-5) at #3 Florida State(11-0)
Florida is not what they used to be. Jameis Winston and the Noles will dish out a pounding in this one to add to Florida coach Will Muschamp's misery.
Winner: Florida State

#18 Minnesota (8-3) at #14 Wisconsin(9-2)
This will be a good one. I think that running back Melvin Gordon will be the difference for the Badgers, and they will take home the Paul Bunyan axe.
Winner: Wisconsion

7:45
#15 Auburn(8-3) at #1 Alabama(10-1)
The Iron Bowl. One of th
e most storied rivalries in all of sports. The Tigers have seen a once promising season turn to disappointment, as they have dropped game to Georiga and Texas A&M. I think that the Tide will simply be to much for the Tigers in this one.

Winner: Alabama
