19 Clemson @ Virginia Tech 3:30 PM
Clemson’s offensive performance has been impressive this season, particularly with their quarterback Cade Klubnik leading the charge. However, their defense needs to get tougher, as there have been some concerns about their ability to handle strong offensive teams. Despite these defensive challenges, I believe Clemson’s offensive strength will be enough to overcome Virginia Tech. I predict a final score of 35-24 in favor of Clemson.

2 Georgia @ 16 Ole Miss 3:30 PM
Ranked No. 2, Georgia has been a powerhouse this year, showcasing a strong and balanced team on both offense and defense. While Ole Miss will certainly put up a fight, especially with their College Football Playoff hopes on the line, they may struggle against Georgia’s formidable lineup. Given Georgia’s consistent performance and depth, I predict they will win this matchup with a score of 45-20.
2 Georgia 45, 16 Ole Miss 20
South Carolina @ 24 Vanderbilt 4:15 PM
Both teams are coming off significant victories, with South Carolina having just defeated No. 10 Texas A&M 44-20, which could lead to a potential “hangover” effect for the Gamecocks as they head into this game. Meanwhile, Vanderbilt is looking to capitalize on their recent success against Auburn and continue their winning streak at home. Given these dynamics, I predict Vanderbilt will edge out South Carolina with a score of 27-24.

11 Alabama @ 14 LSU 7:30 PM
LSU has been strong at home, boasting a 14-game winning streak at Tiger Stadium, which provides a significant home-field advantage. Additionally, LSU holds a slight edge in the SEC standings, being 3-1 in conference play compared to Alabama’s 3-2. Alabama has struggled on the road this season, with a 1-2 record, and their discipline issues, including penalties, have been a concern. Given these factors, LSU has a solid chance to capitalize on Alabama’s vulnerabilities and secure a victory. I predict LSU will win with a score of 31-28.
11 Alabama 28, 14 LSU 31
21 Colorado @ Texas Tech 4:00 PM
Colorado has been consistent this season, boasting a 6-2 record and a strong passing offense led by quarterback Shedeur Sanders, which is ranked eighth in the nation. Although Texas Tech will have the home-field advantage and is coming off a narrow victory, Colorado’s offensive capabilities should give them the edge in this contest. I predict Colorado will win with a score of 31-24.

19 Clemson @ Virginia Tech
What Clemson team is going to show up in Blacksburg? The one that looked dominant in every game after the opener, or the one we saw last weekend? That’s big question. I have faith. Clemson close.

2 Georgia @ 16 Ole Miss
This is a huge game in the SEC. Lane Kiffin chokes in big games. Georgia may be the best team in the country. Dawgs, big.
Georgia 45, Ole Miss 13
South Carolina @ 24 Vanderbilt
Somehow, the crowers in the midlands are unranked. Their defense is tremendous, their offense is meh. Diego Pavia is one of the most exciting players in the country. I can’t pick the chickens, ever.

11 Alabama @ 14 LSU
Night game in Death Valley. I heard a stat that in the last 67 or so years, Bama has only beaten LSU in Deaf Valley only 6 times. That’s not good. I’m not sure who wins this game. I’m going to flip a coin…
Alabama 27, LSU 17
21 Colorado @ Texas Tech
Texas Tech had a huge win against Iowa State last weekend on the road. They get Colorado and the Coach Prime this weekend at home. Tech has had a roller coaster type of season, and somehow Colorado is ranked.

Let’s see if Clemson is who they say they are. This game can go one of two ways. If the Tigers are still in the dregs over last week, Virginia Tech can absolutely break their hearts again. Channel that anger and take it out on the Hokies and the Tigers roll. I choose the second of those options.
Clemson 38, Virginia Tech 21
2 Georgia @ 16 Ole Miss 3:30 PM
Man, do I really have to pick this one? Can I at least pick an asteroid hitting the stadium as a write-in winner? Well darn. Give me Georgia, I guess. It just means more to them.
Georgia 34, Ole Miss 27
South Carolina @ 24 Vanderbilt 4:15 PM
South Carolina defeated the #10 ranked team last week. This week, #24 takes out the trash. Go Vandy!
Vanderbilt 27, South Carolina 24
11 Alabama @ 14 LSU 7:30 PM
The Tide roll this week…right out of Baton Rouge with a loss. Tigers win this one with a late score in the fourth quarter and the Tuscaloosa natives will break out their Nick Saban voodoo dolls.
LSU 37, Alabama 24
21 Colorado @ Texas Tech 4:00 PM
I wish I could say Texas Tech was “primed” for an upset, but alas, I just don’t see it. Coach SANDERS and company get it done in the Lone Star State.

Clemson has to bounce back in this one or there is absolutely no hope they’ll see the 2024 College Football Playoff. But, with that in the back of Clemson player’s minds, I think they’ll get the job done. FINISH FINISH FINISH!
Clemson 30, Virginia Tech 20
2 Georgia @ 16 Ole Miss 3:30 PM
After watching a good bit of Ole Miss football this year surprisingly, I don’t think they can get it done against the Georgia. They’re just not consistent enough against good SEC opponents, like yes they can put up 63 points on Arkansas, but they can’t even put up 20 against Kentucky. Gimme them dawgs.
Georgia 42, Ole Miss 21
South Carolina @ 24 Vanderbilt 4:15 PM
I just love Diego Pavia and everything Vanderbilt has built this year. I also hate the Gamecocks. I don’t care if they beat A&M last week, it’s a new week and it’ll be a different outcome. Let’s go Commodores!
Vanderbilt 22, South Carolina 20
11 Alabama @ 14 LSU 7:30 PM
I would love to say the other Tigers are going to win this thriller of a night-game but I don’t think they’ll be able to pull it out. The Tide will roll and that LSU secondary will not be able to keep up with 17-year-old Ryan Williams. Regardless, I’m tuning in and can’t wait to watch this SEC matchup.
Alabama 44, LSU 38
21 Colorado @ Texas Tech 4:00 PM
Texas Tech’s offense has been amazing with star RB Tahj Brooks in the mix but their defense is one of the worst in the entire of College Football, and that’s what I think will lose them this game. While Colorado has been pretty mediocre on both sides of the ball this season, ranking as the No. 54 team offensively and No. 64 team defensively, the Buffs still have the ability to go ballistic on offense. This will be a high scoring game nevertheless. SKO BUFFS!!

A lot depends on if Drones and Tuten are playing, which I would assume they are. This is going to be one of the best atmospheres to watch on Saturday afternoon, especially with how each team matches up against each other. I think Virginia Tech will find success on the run, but the Hokies will struggle defending Phil Mafah. Clemson wins in a tight one.
Clemson 27, Virginia Tech 24
2 Georgia @ 16 Ole Miss 3:30 PM
Ole Miss don’t play well against good teams. Ever since Lane Kiffin took the helm, it has been that way. I think it will happen again. Georgia is playing its best football at the right time. Who cares if Carson Beck is turning the ball over, Ole Miss has one of the worst pass defenses in the ACC. Dawgs roll.
Georgia 38, Ole Miss 28
South Carolina @ 24 Vanderbilt 4:15 PM
Two of the most exciting teams to watch in the SEC in terms of upsets. Here comes Diego Pavia, the mayor of Alabama, trying to take down another hungry team in the Gamecocks. I love South Carolina’s momentum though. Shane Beamer has a fun team this year, and if anybody wins away from him, it’s South Carolina. The team takes a huge one from Nashville.
South Carolina 27, Vanderbilt 23
11 Alabama @ 14 LSU 7:30 PM
Another CFP elimination game, essentially. I think this game is going to be like the matchup two years ago that went into overtime. The question continues to be “Is Brian Kelly going to win that big game?” He has the chance to do so tonight, and I think he does. The Tigers win its biggest game of the season so far.
LSU 34, Alabama 28
21 Colorado @ Texas Tech 4:00 PM
Colorado continues to prove everybody wrong, which is why I like the Buffs. Regardless of if you like Deion Sanders or not, the culture is beginning to come into full effect in Boulder. Sure the game is at Texas Tech, but this Colorado team is dangerous with the best two players on the field. Sko Buffs.

Back and forth early but Clemson gets the edge in the second half.

Ole Miss comes out firing against Georgia’s dominant defense breaking through the cracks just enough to pull out the win.
Georgia 24, Ole Miss 27
South Carolina @ 24 Vanderbilt 4:15 PM
Both teams have momentum and are hungry for a winning season. Should be an interesting game.
South Carolina 22, Vanderbilt 25
11 Alabama @ 14 LSU 7:30PM
Alabama makes the defensive stop at the end of the game to seal the win.
Alabama 31 LSU 28
21 Colorado @ Texas Tech 4:00PM
Texas Tech has the run game to keep Colorado’s offensive off field. Colorado will be playing catch up late in the game.
