Waco Kid's college football week 14

What is Waco Kid's Weekly College Football Review? It is an ongoing weekly review of all things College Football!!

Each week upcoming games can be discussed and predictions made, name-calling after victories and general all-around college football discussion! Each week will be closed out by the next Monday and a new thread opened for the current college football schedule for each week.

Rules -

"Rules?? We don't need no stinkin’ rules!”

Actually we do.

WKWCFR rule 1

"Lies, damn lies and statistics!"

British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli

If you quote a stat, record, 3rd down conversion rate, an all-time mark or the number of jock straps an 85-man team needs ...

Post it! If you can't post a link to it, it's bogus!
What's valid in the Internet age? Just about anything! Any of the major sports publications, local newspapers, any of the big networks and official school and NCAA sites just to cover the big ones.

WKWCFR rule 2

Predictions must be posted 1 day in advance! If you haven't read the sports page and figgured out who's going to win by the day before ya never will!

Must be time stamped before Midnight the day before game-day, for any weekly games Thur-Sun on the current weekly schedule.

So there you have it, pretty basic! You can post on general topics of your favorite teams regardless of that week's opponent. Just remember WKWCFR rule 1

Forgot to post my favorite play earlier, which was Texas -4, been watching a lot of TT this year, they are just flat out bad against the run.

Mississippi had an awesome ending to their game...

I like Auburn too, at least to cover.

Surprised by some of the odds for today's games....

I like:

Buffalo +3 and SU
East Carolina +3.5 and SU

Ball State -34.5

Alabama (-10.5) over Auburn

if Auburn can't run the ball, this one won't even be close.

...and how many teams have success running the ball on Bama?

Texas can beat Baylor if they keep Bears run game in check and we run it hard. Case is not Colt but he can do quick hits and play action off a strong ground game well.

if we lose to Baylor we are no worse than 3rd, if we win and Cowpokes win we are 2nd, if we win and Cowpokes choke we are 1st in the Big 12 and we go to the Fiesta

If Saban hadn't gone for a FG and then lost they'd question that too.
