Last week I was 2 for 5 on my predictions, not counting my personal prediction of Clemson beating Middle Tennessee St. but If we were to count that, then I'm 3 for 6. Tomorrow has some more great matchups, and I'm giving you my predictions.

1. Georgia v South Carolina: Last week I picked Georgia to beat Okalhoma St. but they lost. Last year Georgia shut out South Carolina 18-0, this time I think the game will be a little closer depending on If Cox for Georgia is playing or not. Bottom line South Carolina will break the losing streak they were on against the Bulldogs, and be 2-0 this year. South Carolina's victory could make a difference between winning the SEC East for the first time, or have a medicore year. South Carolina 21 Georgia 14

2. LSU v Vanderbilt: Love this story, no one expect Vanderbilt to have the season they did last year, question is can they do it again? LSU is favor to win by 14 1/2, and I'll agree w the spread. However I think that Vanderbilt could keep it a close game with their defense, but the Tigers defense will do one better. LSU 34 Vanderbilt 21.

3. Notre Dame v Michigan: Way these coaches are lately, this is a "Loser goes on the hot seat" match. Both teams won their respective opening game, for Michigan however, beating C. Michigan is one thing, but beating Notre Dame is another thing. Doesn't matter who Michigan's starting quarterback is because Claussen will lead the Fighting Irish to victory tomorrow. Notre Dame 24 Michigan 16.

4. Oregon v Purdue: This is a game w/o LaGarrett Blunt in the lineup and I have to say that even though Oregon is favor by 12 points, I think Purdue will upset Oregon. Purdue 28 Oregon 24.

5. Southern Cal v Ohio St.: Possible preview to the Rose Bowl if they win their respective division, but not a National Title game preview unless this year is as crazy in the last two years. Even though both teams won their openers, Ohio St. nearly lost to Navy. I think Southern Cal will dominate the Buckeyes in this game. Southern Cal 38 Ohio St. 14.

6. Tennessee v UCLA: I like this matchup because both teams with historical backgrounds have alot to prove in this game. Lane Kiffien the loudmouth for the Volunteers backed up his words with a victory in last week's openers, and as much as I hate this loudmouth, I think Tennessee will beat UCLA, and go 2-0. Tennessee 28 UCLA 17.

Those are my predictions on those key matchups for tomorrow, If you think differently, let me know, I welcome difference of opinions, long as you're not some loudmouth like that Wilson guy calling
President Obama "A Liar!" then we're cool.
