Week 3 Preview + WOF Picks ATS

What to watch this Saturday. The ACC and SEC are in the spotlight. There’s another After Dark Game worth staying up for.

What is WOF up to this Weekend? 

WOF is headed to Tuscaloosa!! 

We won’t have time to catch any afternoon games because we will be on the road after the Wisconsin at Alabama game, but we’ll probably catch some of the night games. Or, if Wisconsin wins somehow, we might not be in any condition to head north on schedule.

THE OTHER RANKED VS RANKED GAME:
24 Boston College at 6 Missouri

Florida State was ranked when they lost to Boston College, so now Boston College gets to be ranked. That’s a nice little prize. It won’t last long though, Mizzouri likely runs away with this one. 

ONE-SIDED RIVALRY GAMES:
9 Oregon at Oregon State
Washington State vs Washington (Seattle)
18 Notre Dame at Purdue
