Boise State Broncos vs Idaho Vandals
Time may be running out for the Boise State Broncos to clinch a BCS bowl game because of the politics of the system. When winning is not enough, a team has to win with authority and while Boise State has been winning, they have not bee convincing enough. Boise State (9-0, 4-0) finds...
Denver Nuggets vs. Chicago Bulls
The Denver Nuggets hot start is but a fleeting memory now. Having won the first five games of the season for the first time in 24 years, Denver has stumbled on their road trip, losing two of the first three games in the four-game trip. They will try to get back on track when visiting...
Southern Cal Trojans vs. Oregon Ducks
With the way each teams season began it is remarkable that this game means as much as it does as the Southern California Trojans head north to face the Oregon Ducks on Saturday night. Its fitting this game, for Pac-10 supremacy, will be played on Halloween night because each team...
New Orleans Saints vs. Miami Dolphins
The Miami Dolphins had gotten off to a slow start this season and with a new quarterback and their sketchy recent past, many people have wrongly written them off for the season. While this first paragraph could easily apply for the Dolphins 2009 season, it is actually referring to...
Buffalo Bills vs. New York Jets
The New York Jets were the toast of football with their surprising 3-0 start against stiff competition and with a rookie quarterback. But setting the Mark Sanchez hullabaloo aside, the defense was what was winning games for the New York Jets early, and while the offense has stayed...
New England Patriots vs. Denver Broncos

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets vs. Florida State Seminoles
The once proud Florida State Seminoles have really hit the skids this year after hitting the skids for several years and now calls for the head of their iconic coach, who is largely responsible for building the program to what is once was. The Seminoles (2-3, 0-2) are facing the number...
Minnesota Twins vs. Detroit Tigers
For the second year in a row, the Minnesota Twins will play a 163rd game of the season, only this time MLB got it right. After a torrid September in which the Twins (86-76) came from seven games back to tie the Detroit Tigers (86-76), who have held on to the divisional lead by themselves...
New York Jets vs. Tennessee Titans
Of course this week would pit an 0-2 team and a 2-0 team with the Tennessee Titans and the New York Jets, it is just a surprise who is who. Its the Titans (0-2) who are winless. This is quite astounding considering that Tennessee did not lose their first game of 2008 until Week 15,...
Minnesota Vikings vs. San Francisco 49ers
Opening the home portion of their schedule, Brett Favre will play with the purple and gold of the Vikings for the first time in a game that counts in the Twin City. No doubt the fans in the Metrodome will be hyped up as their team went 2-for-2 on their road trip. Happy to be 2-0,...
