November is here, which means the conference races and BCS standings will be heating up! Last week I was 8-2 on my predictions, not bad! Missed the Okla-ND game and another one that I can't remember right now. Not the Iowa game, I predicted them to lose and I was correct. They're having a rough season right now, 4-4 and 2-2 in conference. If they can't win at Indiana this weekend they might not make a bowl game. As for New Mexico, they're having a solid year! 4-5 right now, but could have been 5-4 had their top 2 QB's not been knocked out against Fresno State. The Lobos had a 21-0 advantage in the second quarter, but couldn't stop Fresno in the second half, and the offense struggled to keep up. Still, a solid year thus far.
Here's my new top 25 for the week
1-ALABAMA 8-0 AT LSU
2-KANSAS STATE 8-0 VS OK STATE

Top Games of the Week
Texas A&M at Mississippi State: This game won't have any outcome in the SEC championship, but could determine who plays in a better bowl game. A&M 38 Miss St 28
TCU at West Virginia: Both teams need a win right now, probably not much defense will be played in this one. West Virginia 56 TCU 42
Texas at Texas Tech: Always a fun game to watch, both teams are 6-2 and have an outside shot at an at-large BCS bid. Tech 38 Texas 34
Nebraska at Michigan State: Winning on the road in the Big 10 is tough, Michigan State hasn't been the best team, but they have some momentum after knocking off Wisconsin. Michigan State 21 Nebraska 17
Iowa at Indiana: Iowa has been a huge disappointment this year, they need a win in Bloomington this week, I think they'll bounce back. Indiana's run defense is awful. Iowa 31 Indiana 27
Oregon at USC: I thought USC was going to have a shot at the title this year, but they always seem to lose one or two. Oregon 45 USC 35
Clemson at Duke: Duke tries to stay in contention, but Clemson is too tough. Clemson 42 Duke 17
Alabama at LSU: Everyone says Alabama is the team to beat, I think LSU can beat them, along with every NFL team. LSU 17 Alabama 14
Oklahoma State at Kansas State: Ok State is on a roll right now, but so is K State. Kansas State 38 Oklahoma State 28
Arizona at UCLA: Both teams are playing well right now, UCLA should win at home. UCLA 42 Arizona 31
