(1)USC Trojans vs Oregon State Beavers
9:00 PM ET, September 25, 2008
Reser Stadium , Corvallis , OR
Spread:  USC -24

Week 5 NCAA Thursday Night Football Predictions:  This Mark Sanchez guy is looking like the typical USC QB of the last 5 years, with only 2 games under his belt he has 510 yards in the air 7 TD’s and 2 INT’s, not too shabby…Joe McKnight is lighting it up on the ground with a 9.2 ypc average, but has yet to get a TD and sophomore WR Damian Williams is leading his team with 140 yards and 2 TD’s thus far.  They have a very young and very talented team which could mean more of the same in the Pete Caroll era…Big Bowl Games and National Championships.  Oregon State’s QB Lyle Moevao is no slouch himself with 922 yards and 6 TD’s to his credit already in only 3 games.  He is able to spread out the defense and use all of his receivers which can keep a secondary guessing and confused and freshman RB Jacquizz Rodgers is proving to be a go to guy, especially in red zone where he already has 4 TD’s.  The main reason for Oregon State being 1-2 right now is that their defense is not holding up their end and putting pressure on the offense to put up big plays to stay in the game.  This theory will not hold when playing the Trojans, they are just too efficient on both sides of the ball.  While 24 points is a LOT!!! I am looking for a score like Trojans 48 - 17 so the 24 points is covered.  Take USC -24.  More Week 5 College Predictions here

Saturday Night Football (being aired on ABC)

Virginia Tech Hookies vs Nebraska Cornhuskers
8:00 PM ET, September 27, 2008
Memorial Stadium , Lincoln , NE
Spread: Nebraska  -6.5

Week 5 NCAA Saturday Night Football Predictions:  It always pleases me when I get a chance to pick a game the Huskers are playing in, because I really don’t like them only because some of my friends are die hard Husker Fans and do silly things like make everyone wear red on Saturdays, ect ect.  First of all V-Tech is a different team this year, they blew their recruiting wad on the last 4 years and now they remind me of Afganistan…Bombed out and depleted! Sure they are 3-1 but look at their conference and that should explain why.  QB Tyrod Taylor (who names their kid Tyrod?) has only thrown for 199 yards and 2 INT’s (no I didn’t forget to list his TD’s because there weren’t any).  The main attack from the Hookies come on the ground in the form of RB Darren Evans and then supplemented by Taylor who has almost as many yards as the starting RB (jeez).  Most likely the problem is that Taylor is still too young or he doesn’t have the WR’s to get the job done.  Either way, the Nebraska defense is going to make it a long day for him.  Husker QB Joe Ganz is off to a great start this year and is showing the promise that Callahan had intended.  RB’s Marlon Lucky and Roy Helu are a great tandom and very productive sharing time.  The defense is looking tough and not making that many mental errors, if they keep the pressure on Taylor then this is a no brainer, as much as it kills me to say it,  the Huskers will Roll on these punks.  Take Big Red, give the points.
