    State always plays Bama after the latter plays LSU. State usually covers.

    I like Pitt to cover. Maybe win outright

    Really like USC straight up.

    USC straight up? I'd love to see that!

    Both m and OSU keep the pedal down hard.

    And do you think the RUT and MARY experiment has been a total bust? RUT had a great run during the Tony Soprano days (RUT alum) and playing the Thursday night games. Maryland, eh?

    Somehow I don't think that there will be any big shockers this Saturday. ...but go Trojans.

    Maryland will start to improve. Durkin is a good coach and he is recruiting better in Maryland than any previous coach. He'll make that team respectable.

    i understand because of their record(being ranked so low) but I believe LSU would beat every team ranked above them up to Auburn

    Yes but started with Urban Meyer. 😉

    A native of Youngstown, Ohio, Durkin attended Boardman High School where he was an all-conference and all-Northeast Ohio selection.

    Durkin played defensive end and outside linebacker at Bowling Green from 1997 to 2000, and served as a team captain his final two seasons. He started a total of 33 games in his career and recorded 131 tackles, including 28 for loss. Durkin led the team in sacks in 1998 and finished second in that category in 2000. He earned a bachelor's degree in business marketing in 2001, and a master's degree in educational administration and supervision in 2004.

    Durkin began a career in coaching immediately following his player career. He worked as a graduate assistant at Bowling Green under new head coach Urban Meyer in 2001 and 2002, and at Notre Dame under head coach Tyrone Willingham in 2003 and 2004. He returned to Bowling Green in 2005, where he coached defensive ends, linebackers, and special teams on the staff of Gregg Brandon.

    In 2007, he moved to Stanford on the first staff of Jim Harbaugh, where he served for three seasons as the Cardinal defensive ends coach and special teams coordinator. In 2010, Durkin was reunited with Meyer when he joined the Florida Gators as linebackers coach and special teams coordinator. He remained on Florida's staff when Will Muschamp took over as head coach in 2010, and in 2013 was promoted to defensive coordinator, replacing Dan Quinn.

    Durkin has a reputation as a strong national recruiter and was named the 2012 Rivals.com Recruiter of Year.

    Maryland has damn near the worst run D in the country. OSU should cover.

    Iowa at night could be tricky. Idk if we cover. The way Speight is playing though, we definitely can.

    OSU 62-3 outscored m 59-3 last week, Maryland poor Maryland.

    INDY with 4 turnovers in the first half missed their opportunity.

    If ALA plays a clean game nobody touches them.

    And PITT 40-42 late 2nd half at Clemson!

    Who would have thought #2 Clemson beat by PITT 43-42! THAT might open up a top 4 spot.

    1.ALA

    2. M if they beat Iowa, should do that

    3. WASH

    4. OHIO STATE?
