I went with the Oregon game - they lose that and it clears up the playoffs as there won't be a PAC-12 team.

Not really - I think I'm against Oregon losing since it would open the door for Ohio St, who I don't particularly like (don't hate, just don't like). If you figure Georgia and Cincy as locks, that means Oregon gets in if they win out. Heck, I'm in favor of Oregon getting in if it means Alabama doesn't get in with their one loss.

Went with MSU-OSU. Maybe Sparty can soften up the Buckeyes enough for Harbaugh to get his first win against them the following week.

Or maybe not.

None of the games involving schools I'm interested in are worth much this week, so I went with the Double-Top-Ten Matchup. About the only one of "my" games where my team has any shot at winning whatsoever is Navy, and I'm NOT going to go so far as to guarantee it.

That's a stupid rule. It doesn't take 3 seconds to spike the ball.

That was my thought too.

But this also brings up something that has been bugging me all year. In college football, why are the players so intent on getting the ball to an official quickly on a first down play? NFL... of course. But in college, you should actually kind of toss the ball away without being overt about it. The longer it takes for the official to retrieve the ball, the more time your team has to run up to the line. :suspicious:
