That was one of the craziest weekends of college football that I have ever seen. Iowa was off, so I was able to catch a lot of action. I saw New Mexico win, which was great! So many games came down to the wire, with a lot of top teams losing, which is going to shake up the top 25 and the playoff picture! It'll be fun to see how it all shakes out.
Top 25
1-Auburn had no problem with LSU
2-Baylor didn't put up as many points as they usually do, but their defense is solid
3-Notre Dame great finish against Stanford

PREDICTIONS
Last week was a tough one, I was 5-5 36-22 now on the season. I did predict the Ole Miss victory over Alabama though.
San Diego State at New Mexico: New Mexico is coming off a great road win against UTSA, probably the best defensive performance I've seen out of New Mexico all year. The offense has had some tough injuries, but they're tough to stop. San Diego State is coming off a tough loss against Fresno. Rocky Long brings the Aztecs to Albuquerque where Long played and coached.
New Mexico 28 San Diego State 27
Georgia at Missouri: This should be a good game, could be one of those back and forth games where whoever has the ball last wins.
Georgia 34 Missouri 28
Indiana at Iowa: Indiana's passing offense hasn't been as effective this year, but the ground game with Tevin Coleman has been stout. Iowa's got a great run defense and if they stifle Coleman they could win big.
Iowa 31 Indiana 21
Duke at Georgia Tech: GT has cracked my top 25 and take on a tough Duke team, should be a key game for the division.
Duke 34 Georgia Tech 24
Auburn at Mississippi State: Both had huge wins last week against tough opponents, this could be one of the best games of the season, Marshall vs Prescott. Whoever makes less mistakes should win.
Auburn 31 Missisippi State 28
TCU at Baylor: This suddenly becomes a huge game in the playoff picture, can TCU carry over their momentum at Baylor?
Baylor 45 TCU 35
Oregon at UCLA: Both teams suffered tough losses at home and need to win this game.
Oregon 42 UCLA 31
Ole Miss at Texas A&M: This should be another epic SEC matchup.
Texas A&M 34 Ole Miss 27
USC at Arizona: Arizona moved up the rankings quickly while USC keeps slipping.
USC 38 Arizona 34
Toledo at Iowa State: Iowa State has looked decent at times this year, but have a brutal schedule. Can they put away a MAC team?
Iowa State 31 Toledo 24
