College Weekend.

Nebraska is still a QB from being a top level team. They don't have the overall speed to score without the QB. Texas was just a bit better.
Considering that Oklahoma is much better than Texas with the new slow motion offense at Austin, I would have to put the Sooners as a favorite for the NC game.

Oregon is the other pick, considering the weakness in the PAC 10 defenses. Oregon will outscore everyone and their D is quick.

I would take the Ducks over the Sooners, but as a caveat. The Ducks skill players are smallish and quick. I would expect the injuries to start mounting in conference play.

Auburn, LSU and the SEC.
Auburn is probably the best bet to go undefeated, but I doubt that either team has the capacity. LSU and its blundering staff will get beat by Arkansas high speed offense. Auburn just wins with that incredible offensive coordinator and the head coach knows how to coach defense. I would expect Auburn to have the best shot at beating Bama. I still feel Bama is the best overall team. LSU may have the most talent, but penalties and a lack of originality will probably do them in.
Florida and South Carolina probably closed any chance of a 1 loss SEC team getting in if the status quo remains with the unbeatens.

Boise State, TCU and Utah. I have watched all 3 and Utah looks the best to me.
But in the BCS rankings the Nevada and Air Force losses this weekend these teams took a big hit. Boise St biggest games. Nevada and Hawaii, Nevada will probably have at least 3 loses prior to that game.

Big 10. Iowa really killed the Big 10 losing at Arizona. They were the better team and slept through the first half of that game.

BCS rankings tonight.
1. OK 2. ORE 3. Boise 4. Auburn 5. TCU 6. LSU 7. Mich ST 8. Bama 9. Utes 10. Ohio ST.
