Jordan

Ohio State (-14.5) at Michigan - Big number for a rivalry game, but Michigan look horrible this year.

Baylor (-12) at TCU - I can't help but feel this line is an extreme overreaction to the Bears' poor performance in Stillwater.

West Virginia (-8) vs. Iowa State - Weird things happen in Morgantown.

Rich

Baylor (-12) vs TCU - There is no doubt that the Horned Frogs have struggled all season long to find an identity. Baylor will likely roll in this one.

Penn St. (+24) vs Wisconsin - The Badgers may be the most underrated team in the country. However they like to control the clock so give me the points on this one.

Oregon St. (+23) vs Oregon - Simply put, you never know what you are going to get from an in state rivalry game but it certainly won't be a blowout.

Matt

Oregon State (+23) at Oregon - The Ducks' season has taken a turn south over the last month but that's not the motivation behind my pick. This is a rivalry game and, despite Oregon needing to prove some things, Oregon State is deceptively good.

South Florida (+27) at Central Florida - I guess I'm just a sucker for big time road dogs.

Duke (+5.5) at North Carolina - The classic basketball rivalry moves from the hardwood to the gridiron and the wrong team is favored.
