Multiple choice public poll (on the way)

Who stays undefeated?

In the end I voted for no upsets. But I fully expect one or two teams will go down. I wouldn’t be very surprised if Michigan State beats Wisconsin for example. But in the end I could find a game where I really liked the other team.

I say no upsets.

I had to give better than 50/50 chances to Auburn and Texas Tech, and I almost felt strongly enough about Tennessee’s chances. In any case those three games are on my front burner this week. And I’ll be hoping for upsets in at least two other games, but I don’t “predict” them. :slight_smile:

Surely more than 5 have an opinion here?

I got everybody except Clemson. They just never seem to be able to put it all together for a whole season.

I’m just not sold on Wisconsin. I think they’re going down.

And Houston just isn’t that good. SOMEONE will take them down soon. Why not Marshall?

Everybody else will coast this weekend.

I’m right there with you on Wisconsin. I think they’d get embarrassed by LSU. But I watched MSU play ND, OSU and UM and I am way, way less sold on them.

Here’s a summary bump with two days left to vote:

Just a shade over 12 hours left to vote in this poll.

Wisconsin is tough. I am sold they can play defense. MSU will be brutal but MSU is a step back.
Clemson is vulnerable .
Stanford is facing a good opponent. But I think they will win.

All undefeated teams will win this week.

I picked all but Clemson. UNC has some talent and I think they’ll pull the upset. I might have pulled the trigger on MSU to beat Wisconsin, but without a key defensive player, they’'ll get worn down. I’ll say Wisconsin pads the score in the 4th, something like 42-21. Auburn will give LSU a good game, but the Tigers will prevail! :stuck_out_tongue:

Last call for votes. Ten minutes, y’all!

I’m calling PacifistPorcupine the winner with a 7/7 score.

I’m calling you the winner with 9/10 score. You risked more.

? :confused:

He didn’t vote on Stanford, so technically that’s 9/10, which ties you.
