Goob’s take: I really like the Wildcats, but I think their lack of pressure on Sanchez will allow the Trojans to escape with a hard-fought victory, 38-31 USC.

 

Normal games….

 

#3 Penn State @ #9 Ohio State (8:00 ET ABC)

            What a game!  It certainly has the makings of a thriller in the horseshoe!  The Nittany Lions travel to Columbus looking for their first victory there in 7 games.  Talented QB Darryl Clark leads the impressive spread-HD offense, with WR Derrick Williams making plays all over the field.  I think the key to this game will be can the Penn State defense contain Terrelle Pryor and keep him in the pocket.  I think this is where the talented QB could make some mistakes—through the air.  Look for the Lions’ Aaron Maybin and Maurice Evans to have big days for the front 7 of the Penn State D.  Pryor has looked phenomenal in recent outings, certainly sparking the Buckeye offense, but there’s just something special about this Penn State team.  I like them to get things done on the road in a close Big Ten grudge match, 17-14 Nittany Lions.

#6 Oklahoma State @ #1 Texas (3:30 ET ABC)
