5th Quarter Part 1

Some Keys To Today's Big Games

1. OU vs. Mizzou-There are some games that can define a program and this is one of them for the Tigers. Win this game at home and you solidify your program as a true national player. For the Tigers to win they need to run the ball effectively or this could get out of hand quickly. Mizzou has said they are tired of getting beat by the likes of Texas, Oklahoma and Nebraska. Win this game and they will control their own destiny for a national title, while also telling the rest of the conference that the Tigers will not be trampled over anymore.

2. AFvs.TCU-This will be tougher for TCU than people think. Air Force runs the triple option to perfection and that ball control can keep the explosive Horned Frogs offense off the field. TCU should win but it will not be a cake walk.

3. LSUvs.Auburn-The winner of this in my opinion will win the SEC West. Cam Newton and the Auburn Tigers have ran the ball down people's throat all year. Now they go against the best defense in the SEC against the run. Special teams will play an enormous role in this one. We will see if Auburn will kick to Peterson or Sheppard today, if they do that will make the huge difference in this game. Hopefully, Les Miles does not have any clock management issues again.

4. MSU vs. Northwestern-This has trap game written all over it for Michigan St. Northwestern only has one loss, its homecoming in Evanston and they had an extra week to prepare for the Spartans. Michigan St. could be looking forward to their showdown next Saturday with Iowa. If the Wildcats score first, watch out for the upset.

5. Wisconsin vs. Iowa-After a huge win over Ohio St., the Badgers go to Iowa and take on the once beaten Hawkeyes. Both of these teams are still in the hunt for the Big Ten title. Should be a good one.

6. Nebraska vs. Ok. St.-The Huskers will be angry after getting dominated by Texas but the Cowboys can score. I think Nebraska loses back to back games.

More later....
