College Football predictions Week 8...

NCAA Week 8

Week 7’s NCAA predictions saw me finish the week with a 19-8 record sending me to 110-47 for the year on my blog. As a Fearless Forecaster, I had another 12-8 week sending me to 88-52 for the 2011 College season.

There are a few big ones on tap this weekend including the Southern Cal/Notre Dame showdown. Last week was the first week of the BCS Standings with LSU and Alabama in the top two slots.

So here are this week’s picks:

West Virginia (15) @ Syracuse

West Virginia will look to continue their rise in the polls with a road win at Syracuse in this week’s Friday night Big East special.

WVa 34-14.

Oklahoma State (4) @ Missouri

Has been a danger game for the Cowboys in the past, not this season.

Oklahoma State 52-22.

North Carolina @ Clemson (7)

Clemson 34-20.

Kansas State (11) @ Kansas

Kansas State 34-10.

Illinois (23) @ Purdue

Illinois 40-23.
