Host · Writer

Week 14: No. 15 Texas A&M (SEC: 5-1) vs. No. 3 Texas
Texas A&M has had a great season thus far, but Texas is a level above them. I predict the Longhorns will go in on the road and win by at least two scores.

Score: Texas A&M 21- Texas 38
Week 12: No. 14 SMU Mustangs (ACC: 5-0) vs. Boston College
Spread: SMU - 16.5

SMU, the last remaining undefeated team in the ACC, is fresh off their bye week, so they should be well-rested and ready to go against Boston College. I see them taking this one and covering the spread.

Score: SMU 31-Boston College 14

Week 12: No. 7 BYU (B1G 12: 6-0) vs. Kansas
Spread: BYU -3.5

BYU narrowly escaped a close game against Utah last weekend, winning 22-21. They remain undefeated for now, but only time will tell if they can stay perfect.

Score: BYU 27-Kansas 17
Week 12: No. 1 Oregon (B1G 10: 7-0) vs. Wisconsin
Spread: -14.5

Oregon looks like a legit powerhouse. From the staff to the players, they are loaded and poised for a deep playoff run. I don't see any scenario where Wisconsin can pull this one off.

Score: Oregon 55- Wisconsin 10
Week 12: No. 5 Indiana (B1G 10: 7-0) BYE
The Hoosiers have a quick break in week 12 with their BYE week, but this benefits them as they prepare for a huge matchup against the Buckeyes in the horseshoe next weekend.
Week 12: No. 6 Tennessee (SEC: 5-1) vs. Georgia
Tennessee is tied atop the SEC standings alongside Texas A&M, and while the Volunteers have had an impressive season, I see Georgia stealing this one to keep their playoff hopes alive.

Score: Georgia 34-Tennessee 23
Week 12: No. 15 Texas A&M (SEC: 5-1) vs. NM State
Spread: -38.5

This game should be as close to a free win as possible for the Aggies. This is a clear mismatch for New Mexico State; I see Texas A&M winning this one dominantly.

Score: Texas A&M 55-NM State 3
Week 13: No. 14 SMU Mustangs (ACC: 5-0) vs. Virginia
SMU looks eager to finish the season strong with an ACC Championship and a potential playoff first-round BYE. To do this, they must get by Virginia, which I don't think will be a problem.

Score: SMU 40- Virginia 21
Week 13: No. 7 BYU (B1G 12: 6-0) vs. Arizona State
BYU cannot overlook a team like Arizona State, which sits third in the conference and has impressive wins. I see BYU taking this one.

Score: BYU 35-ASU 27
Week 13: No. 1 Oregon (B1G 10: 7-0) BYE
Oregon gets a BYE in week 13, which will help them rest up and regroup for its final game and the playoffs.
Week 13: No. 5 Indiana (B1G 10: 7-0) vs. No. 2 Ohio State
This matchup is projected to be one of the more electric games in recent memory. Indiana is having a historic season, and beating No. 2 ranked Ohio State on the road would make it even sweeter. However, I don't see them pulling it off; they'll lose their first game of the season against the Buckeyes.

Score: Indiana 27-Ohio St 38
Week 13: No. 6 Tennessee (SEC: 5-1) vs. UTEP
This is a clear mismatch between the two programs. Tennessee will wipe the floor against UTEP; in fact, this one will be over by halftime.

Score: Tennessee 55- UTEP 6
Week 13: No. 15 Texas A&M (SEC: 5-1) vs. Auburn
Texas A&M should be able to handle Auburn, who is struggling this year. I think it'll be closer than expected, but ultimately, the Aggies will run away with this one.

Score: Texas A&M 33-Auburn 17
Week 14: No. 14 SMU Mustangs (ACC: 5-0) vs. Cal
Cal should have the motivation to play spoiler against the red-hot Mustangs, but it won't happen. SMU will take this one and finish undefeated in conference play with an 11-1 overall record.

Score: SMU 43-Cal 10
Week 14: No. 7 BYU (B1G 12: 6-0) vs. Houston
BYU should be able to dismantle Houston. However, I'm unconvinced, as they've had too many close wins this season. I'll say they win this one, but Houston will put up a fight.

Score: BYU 38-Houston 27
Week 14: No. 1 Oregon (B1G 10: 7-0) vs. Washington
This isn't the same Washington team as it was in previous years, which honestly doesn't make too much of a difference. Oregon will tear apart the Huskies' defense and win, moving them to 12-0 overall.

Score: Oregon 34-Washington 13
Week 14: No. 5 Indiana (B1G 10: 7-0) vs. Purdue
I see the Indiana Hoosiers rebounding against Purdue after their loss to Ohio State in Week 13, and improving to 11-1 overall. The Hoosiers will have a chance to make some noise come playoff time.

Score: Indiana 38-Purdue 14
Week 14: No. 6 Tennessee (SEC: 5-1) vs. Vanderbilt
Vanderbilt has had some impressive wins, but Tennessee should be in prime form and ready to put to rest any doubts. The Volunteers will win, but it'll be a nail-biter.

Score: Tennessee 27-Vanderbilt 24
Week 14: No. 15 Texas A&M (SEC: 5-1) vs. No. 3 Texas
Texas A&M has had a great season thus far, but Texas is a level above them. I predict the Longhorns will go in on the road and win by at least two scores.

Score: Texas A&M 21- Texas 38
Week 12: No. 14 SMU Mustangs (ACC: 5-0) vs. Boston College
Spread: SMU - 16.5

SMU, the last remaining undefeated team in the ACC, is fresh off their bye week, so they should be well-rested and ready to go against Boston College. I see them taking this one and covering the spread.

Score: SMU 31-Boston College 14
