Oregon goes to East Lansing to play Michigan State and the Oklahoma Sooners travel to Knoxville to play the Tennessee Vols in front of 105k fans in the two most important games in Week 2. Both will be on National TV Saturday night. I like the home teams in both. Look for Sparty to nip the Ducks 31-28 and Rocky Top to beat the Covered Wagon 41-40 in a barnburner. Both games will be a tight fit for the winner and that said, you can say that nothing is out-of-the-question in these two game. At home, Oklahoma State will drill Central Arkansas and Tulsa goes to New Mexico and will be in a dogfight with the Lobos…..take Tulsa.

love to get your picks each week
thank you Bill. I do spend some time to make them. I do not do so for gambling reasons, just for what I think will happen (score wise).
Michigan State wins 28-17
Oklahoma wins 33-21
like the OU score….4 starters on d out for the Vols since 9-10-15…that should affect them…..
