I looked at Cuse, but I think they have high potential to lay an egg on the road after a few decent home games. No real reason why... Just no confidence there. And VT sucks so I can't play them either.
But what wins aren't meaningless by that logic?
Every result looks different weeks after it happens.
Your own Bulldogs (who I have been on the record saying for a while are, by far, the best team in the country) struggled to beat Clemson. That result isn't nearly as impressive now.
For ND, the struggles against FSU, Toledo, & VT still look bad (and probably even worse)... But now that Purdue win looks better after they knocked off Iowa.
You could go through every team's schedule and extrapolate to come up with poor conclusions.
Who is out for Oklahoma State this week? Are they really TD underdogs to Iowa State?
This logic applies to Cincy. Keeping them out of our party is important.

That's what I thought. Always have to stick to advancing the agenda. Shame on me for thinking otherwise.
I still just think it's a pu pu platter of good (but not great) teams after #1.
And Cincy is going to the Big 12 soon!
ACC better watch out too.
Games I'm looking at this weekend... Please let me know if I am a moron.
Army +3 vs Wake Forest
KSU pick 'em @ Texas Tech
Iowa State -7 vs. Oklahoma State
Ole Miss -9 vs LSU
Haven't put any actual wagers in yet, but I like the above. The games below I have no real read on... But want to do some work.
Surprised to see UCLA as a 1 point favorite at home against #10 Oregon... Something I am missing there?
Having a hard time not taking Clemson +3.5 @ Pitt... I know Clemson sucks, but there is a lot of talent on that team and they've been shit on a lot over the last week ahead of this game.
Also intrigued by Louisville -5.5 at home against BC & Miami +3.5 at home against NCSU.
Love Iowa State. OK State is the most counterfeit undefeated team in the country. The only Big 12 school that has scored less points is Kansas. OK State has had a bunch of misleading wins. Iowa State is much better than its record.
Also, like Miami +3.5, Maryland +4.5, UCLA -1, LA Tech +6, Oregon State +3, Illinois/Penn State U 45.5...
Will also probably take BYU -4 at Washington State. Hard to imagine a more distracted and less focused team than Wazzu given that 5 coaches were fired this week.
Wait, the CFP Championship is in fucking Indianapolis? Is that a one year thing or what? What a giant kick in the nuts for whatever fan base gets to go. Indianapolis in January, woof.
