Games to Watch this Weekend

As Ryan mourns the complete death of the Bowdon dynasty in Tally...

Georgia Tech @ Miami (12:00, ESPN)
They are desperate at the mothership to have to show this match-up. Think low scoring, as both teams have powerful, fast defenses, and offenses that have the potency of an 85 year old heart attack survivor.
Prediction: Miami 17, Georgia Tech 14

LSU @ Kentucky (3:30, CBS)
The Bengals of the Bayou attempt to do what few teams have done this year- survive the let down game. Good thing they have team speed the Falcons are jealous of, and that Andre Woodson had a shaky last game in Columbia against Smelley’s Cocks.
Prediction: LSU 35, Kentucky 17

Boston College @ Notre Dame (3:30, NBC)
The Jesuits from Boston invade the hapless Irish in South Bend. This one could get ugly early, and, even though BC are no track stars, they can run faster than I can, which is about all ND has in the secondary.
Prediction: BC 38, ND 10.

Auburn @ Arkansas (7:45, ESPN)
The night cap to a pretty sad Saturday of football. The Plainsmen have figured some things out on offense, and the defense has been stout all year. Things are not looking good for Houston Nutt in Fayetteville, and they won't get any better this week for the Hogs.
Predition: Auburn 27, Arkansas 17.

New England @ Dallas (4:15, CBS)
Tony Romo was exposed last week by the Buffalo D, just as Eastwood was exposed as being cheap at Tony Roma's in Las Vegas with the french fries. New England keeps working Rodney Harrison back into the equation, and Asante Samuel starts getting more action in the secondary as well. Dallas has a pass defense that adds Terrence Newman this week, but it won't help.
Prediction: New England 31, Dallas 21.

NY Giants @ Atlanta (Monday Night, ESPN)
I'm sure the exec's from ESPN wish they had this one back. Prediction: Giants 21, 'Coons 10.
