So don’t expect as many action as we had in the NCAA last week. Could anyone have predicted Georgia would look as poorly as they did against Auburn ? Clemson and Oklahoma looked really good against strong opponents, all but cementing their status as teams to consider first for postseason playoff positioning.
It’s tough to pick which match-up will be the best of the weekend. Most likely it’ll be a game no one cares about until everyone gets wind it’s close, then tunes in mid-way through the fourth quarter.
If I had to guess, I’d pick the Big Ten battle when Harbaugh and his Wolverines, who looked by far like the strongest team in state of Michigan last week, head to Wisconsin to take on a red-hot Badger team. I don’t see the Wolverines rolling over in this one, but as of press time Wisconsin being a -7.5 favorite sounds too enticing to pass up.
