Not counting games involving undefeated and one-loss teams, these appear noteworthy enough to have a poll for: ```auto Week 14 Scoreboard Thursday December 1, 2011 (22) West Virginia (8-3, Road: 3-1) 8:00 pm EST South Florida (5-6, Home: 3-3) Friday December 2, 2011 Ohio (9-3, Road: 4-2) 7:00 pm EST Northern Illinois (9-3, Home: 6-0) UCLA (6-6, Road: 1-5) 8:00 pm EST (9) Oregon (10-2, Home: 6-1) Saturday December 3, 2011 Iowa St. (6-5, Road: 2-3) 12:30 pm EST (16) Kansas St. (9-2, Home: 5-1) UNLV (2-9, Road: 0-6) 2:30 pm EST (18) TCU (9-2, Home: 4-1) Texas (7-4, Road: 3-1) 3:30 pm EST (19) Baylor (8-3, Home: 6-0) (15) Wisconsin (10-2, Road: 2-2) 8:00 pm EST (11) Michigan St. (10-2, Home: 7-0) ``` Public and multiple choice. Pick the winners among the higher ranked or home teams. ---

I went with the home team in all of these, except Wisconsin. That one could just as easily go to Michigan State, but somehow I think Wisconsin pulls this one out. ---

Okay! That’s more like it. Still a little over two hours to vote. Game starts in just over an hour! You can even watch a bit of the game before the poll closes! How much help you need? 🙂 ---
