Reclaiming the Mojo: A Promising Start to the Season
Despite a 6-6 overall record, the author feels that the team has regained its mojo, with three late losses preventing them from achieving a 9-3 record. The author's wins, including a "blood bank guarantee" against Tennessee at Oklahoma, were decisive victories. However, the team's current record of 23-32 on the year means they have a lot of ground to make up as the season progresses. Nonetheless, the author is confident that the mojo is back, and they are ready to go 14-0 this weekend.A Weekend of Excitement: Pregame Show and a Thrilling Matchup
The author will be live on Big Noon, Fox's college football pregame show, from the Georgia at Alabama game on Saturday morning.

The author looks forward to an incredible game and hopes to see many fans in attendance.Dominating the Hurricanes: Virginia Tech at Miami
The author was wrong about Miami facing a challenge from South Florida last week, and they are not making the same mistake again.

The author predicts the Hurricanes will crush the Hokies by over 21 points, providing a solid start to the weekend.Big 12 Showdown: Oklahoma State at Kansas State
Last week, both Oklahoma State and Kansas State suffered tough losses to teams from Utah, making this matchup feel like a Big 12 title elimination game.

The author predicts an "ugly, bumbling, offensive affair" that will result in the under cashing.Wildcats Covering the Spread: Kentucky at Ole Miss
The author is either going to look like a genius or a moron with this pick. While Kentucky has a decent defense, their offense is lacking.

The author believes Kentucky can keep the game within a 10-14 point margin, making them a viable underdog pick.Sooners Stumbling in Auburn: Oklahoma at Auburn
The author believes that at some point, Auburn will not have 36 turnovers in a game, and when that happens, the Tigers will win. This weekend, the author predicts that Auburn will pull off a home upset over Oklahoma. Additionally, the author expects a low-scoring affair, with the under cashing as well.Razorbacks Heartbreak: Arkansas at Texas A&M
The author expects Texas A&M to break Arkansas's heart once again this year. The author believes the Aggies' defense will set the pace, leading to the under cashing. Taylen Green's regression for Arkansas and the Aggies' defensive performance against a similar quarterback in Riley Leonard support this prediction.Illini Keeping it Close: Illinois at Penn State
The author is stepping in front of a potential Nittany Lion freight train and taking the Illini to keep the game within three touchdowns in Happy Valley. The author also expects the under to cash, as both teams have solid defenses.Tide Triumphing at Home: Georgia at Alabama
