Georgia Overview
The Dawgs beat Nicholls State 26-24 in a game that was quite miserable. Let’s just be thankful the unthinkable didn’t happen and move on and never talk about this again.
Georgia opens up SEC play next Saturday when the travel to Columbia to face Missouri.
Movers
Fell Out: #15 TCU, #22 Oklahoma State
Newcomers: #23 Florida, #24 Arkansas
Overrated
#5 Clemson
Clemson is still 2-0, but they are having some major issues to start the new campaign. Deshaun Watson and company need to straighten things out before they get into the meat of their schedule.
Underrated
#24 Arkansas
The Razorbacks showed a lot of grit to pull off the upset of TCU, as predicted would happen in last week’s post. They should have gotten a higher bump, as they could end up being one of the better SEC teams this season.

#3 Ohio State at #14 Oklahoma
Upset Alert
Riding high off of last week’s correct Arkansas pick, I’m calling two upsets this week.
It’s one of those wacky Thursday night games where anything could happen, and I think Cincinnati is going to pull off the upset of Houston at home.
Secondly, the Trojans of USC will salvage their season and beat Stanford in Palo Alto.
