NCAA Game #1

Oregon State @ Ohio State (Saturday 10:30am Pregame, WMOA/WJAWFM 100.9)

J. Wharff: Well, I just have a feeling, there will be a big week one upset, but this ain't it! OSU!

Sunderman: We all know that Urban is suspended for the first 3 weeks, but I don't see the Buckeyes struggling in this one at all. The player that I will be keeping my eye on in this game is Mike Webber. As I write this, J.K. Dobbins is at the top of the Depth Chart and he rightfully deserves it. Webber really never recovered from his injury at the beginning of the season last year, and it hindered him throughout the season. He still averaged over 6 yards per carry, but he had less playing time than his freshman year and 80 less carries. Dobbins definitely took over last year in the backfield for the Buckeyes, but I'm pulling for both of these backs to go over 1,000 yards this season. With the early uncertainty at QB, Ohio State will need both running backs to lead the team.

Hushion: The Fighting Beavers don't have a prayer....Buckeyes 63 to 13.

Marshall: The Buckeyes are replacing several key spots, QB and Center most notably on offense, but with the dynamic duo of Weber and Dobbins, and Paris Campbell at wide-out, the offense should still be very dynamic. Buckeyes win by three touchdowns.

NCAA Game #2

WVU vs Tennessee (@ Charlotte,NC) (Pregame 12pm, 3:30pm Kick WJAWAM 630/92.9FM)

Hushion: Will Grier is the man! And Vols football is going to be bad this year....Mountaineers 51-20.

Sunderman: I hate to agree with Hush.... I mean it crushes what's left of my soul.... but the Mountaineers look like they should have one of the best teams in college football this season, at least entertaining with Grier.

J. Wharff: It's the year of the Mountaineer, or at least a good start.

Marshall: They say this Will Grier kid is pretty good. WVU.

NCAA Game #3

Howard @ Ohio (Saturday 2pm)

J. Wharff: Ohio! Never go against your Alma Malter, unless they go against you!

Hushion: Who is Howard? Big season for the Bobcats....Ohio wins 58 to 10!

NCAA Game# 4

Michigan @ Notre Dame (Saturday 7:30pm)

J.Wharff: ND, No Comment.

Sunderman: Notre Dame! No Doubt! …. Well, maybe just a little, but I refuse to vote for that other team.

Marshall: I'm a big believer in "Conference pride" and the talking heads have said a lot of good things about TTUN this offseason but.... I'll take the Irish.

NCAA Game #5

Louisville vs Alabama (@ Orlando,FL) (Saturday 8pm)

J. Wharff: Bama. This ain't the week one upset either.

Hushion: The Tide will roll in this one...Bama 44 Cardinals 10.

NCAA Game #6

Marshall @ Miami (OH) (Saturday 3:30pm)

Hushion: The Thundering Turds get a nice road win here...Marshall over the Redhawks 38 to 24.

Marshall: We are... Marshall!

NCAA Game #7

Washington vs Auburn (@ Atlanta, GA) (Saturday 3:30pm)

Hushion: The class of the PAC 12 starts the season with a big win....Huskies 31 War Eagle 21.

Marshall: I know nothing about this matchup. I do know Washington had a great year last year, and Auburn went into the final game of the season where they began it... at number 24 in the polls and a lot of shaky football in between, But I look for Washington to regress and Auburn to win this game.

NCAA Game #8

Cincinnati @ UCLA (Saturday 7pm)

Hushion: Pretty tough place to start the season for the Bearcats....Bruins 46 UC 16.

NCAA Game #9

LSU @ Miami (Sunday 7:30pm)

Sunderman: Former Ohio State QB Joe Burrow gets the nod as the starting quarterback for the Tigers. Burrow is able to start right away as a Grad transfer from OSU. Burrow transferred due to the lack of commitment he saw from OSU. Burrow is also a former local QB who played for Athens High School. This guy was a beast in high school, and from the little bit that he's been able to show at the collegiate level, I definitely think that he can still play some football. LSU has had some major issues at wide receiver this off-season during recent scrimmages, as they have dropped a lot of catchable balls. Miami is the better proven team in this matchup though. Good Luck Joe..... but the 'Canes win.

Hushion: Could be the best game to start the season.....I like the Canes to win 33 to 24.

J.Wharff: There's a new sheriff in town and he's no rookie. Go Big Joe! LSU.

NCAA Game #10

Virginia Tech @ Florida State (Monday 7:30 pregame WJAWFM 100.9)

Hushion: Tough place for a Hokie to travel to...Seminoles win 27 to 17.

Sunderman: This should be a great game. I say FSU in a tough battle.
