KU @ USF (-3.5)
This should be a really good game.  Were it being played in Lawrence or much later in the season, I might have picked KU.  But, as it is in week 3, on the road, against a tough opponent, I've got to take the home team.  Don't know much about USF's Offense, so KU could very well pitch another shutout.  But, I have read a little bit about their defense, and it looks like they've got a pretty good D with excellent corners and pass coverage.  Seeing as KU can't run the ball, this should make for an interesting game.   
Nevada @ MU (-26.5)  At home, doesn't look like this offense will be stopped. 
SMU @ TT (-37.0)  Tech, again, is a pretender.  SMU sucks though.  Still don't think they'll cover.
NM St. @ NU (-25) New coach.  Lot of points to cover. 
Ark @ UT (-24) Always seems to be a good game. 
ISU @ Iowa (-13.5) I don't care.
Wash. St @ Baylor (+2) See ISU v. Iowa.
OU @ Washington (+20) Oklahoma is awesome this year.  what's new?

Ohio St @ USC (-10.5) Wasn't too impressed with OSU last weekend. 

[Boognish]

KU @ USF (-3.5) - KU's defense looks great and USF struggled last week against inferior competition.
Nevada @ MU (-26.5) - I might feel differently on the road but Nevada likes to run, Mizzou's strong point on D, and their starting tailback is out.
SMU @ TT (-37.0) - I want to take SMU because Tech is grossly underachieving but Rice beat them by 25 or so.
NM St. @ NU (-25)
Ark @ UT (-24)
ISU @ Iowa (-13.5)
Wash. St @ Baylor (+2)
OU @ Washington (+20) - Washington got jobbed last week and Oklahoma has had some difficulty in Pac-10 roadies.

Ohio St @ USC (-10.5) - Ohio State, your slip is showing.

Week 3
KU @ USF (-3.5)
Nevada @ MU (-26.5)
SMU @ TT (-37.0)  Good lord that's a lot of points to swallow for a team I am not that sold on - but SMU sucks. 
NM St. @ NU (-25)
Ark @ UT (-24)
ISU @ Iowa (-13.5)
Wash. St @ Baylor (+2)  mighty hard to give points for Baylor
OU @ Washington (+20)

Ohio St @ USC (-10.5)  Big - sorry Max

KU @ USF (-3.5)

USF (-3.5) - I went back and forth on this one...home team and short week give USF the edge I'm thinking.  Tough to travel 1/2 the country and a short week.  Plus I think their D will give TR & co. problems.
Nevada (+26.5) - for some reason I have some blind faith in Nevada to put up points and hang
SMU (+37.0) - TT doesn't impress me and 37 points is a lot
NU (-25) - Still lot of points but the NMSt. trash talking gets NU going
UT (-24) - No real reason
ISU (+13.5) - My IU friends don't have much faith in IU
Wash. St (-2) - Baylor is yuck
OU (-20) - Would love to see UW get within 20 but I don't see it.

USC (-10.5) - No big 10 faith

KU @ USF (-3.5)

The only reason I picked KU in this game was because I thought South Florida would only win by a field goal. I am awesome.

So am I.  I sooooo had that one pegged.

I also knew Mark Mangino was going to wear a trash bag on the sideline the whole game.

I'm seriously that good.

[Boognish]

Why did most of the participants pick Washington State? The 3rd worst team in Division 1? The team that got beat down 66-3 last week by Cal?

[phxcat]

Because we just thought that Baylor would be that much worse.  Oops
