College Football 2010 (Week 3).....

No real "heavyweight" games this weekend, but any Saturday with college football is a good Saturday. Last week's games looked good on paper, but were disappointments with so many blowouts.

Week 3 games:

Notre Dame over Michigan State - The Irish defense were exposed as still a bit slow, but I think Brian Kelly gets them back on track against the Spartans.
Iowa (#9) over Arizona (#24) - Only match-up this week of top 25 teams. Iowa will have a tough test traveling west, but this is a good football team that will get the job done in a hostile environment.
Nebraska (#8) over Washington - The Cornhuskers travel up to Washington to face an improving Huskie team. The Husker defense is very good and is able to control quarterback Jake Locker.
LSU (#15) over Mississippi St. - A tough loss for MSU at home last week against Auburn and it doesn't get any easier with the Tigers coming to town. LSU needs to take advantage of a MSU team that may still be upset by that loss.
Arkansas (#12) over Georgia - Tough SEC game with the Razorbacks traveling to Athens. Georgia already lost one SEC game in dropping last week's contest to South Carolina. Ryan Mallett leads Arkansas to road SEC victory.
Florida (#10) over Tennessee - Florida has looked shaky in their first two victories, but I think they get healthy against a Volunteer team that will keep the game close, but doesn't have enough talent to beat the Gators.

Week 2: 5-1
2010 season: 10-2
