What promises to be a fantastic week of college football gets started tonight. If you can stay up for it, the marquee game of the evening is Arizona at number 2 Oregon. The good news is you won't have to stay up too long. The Ducks owe the Wildcats for last year in the Zoo, and this could get out of hand early. Oregon is currently a 23.5 point favorite. It's a great opportunity to see #2 in action without other, closer to home, games stealing your attention though.
Louisville and Syracuse headline Friday night in what just last year was a Big East Conference game. This game could be a dogfight. Louisville opened as a 6.5 point favorite, but that has since plummeted to just 1.5. By the time toe meets leather, this game could be a pick 'em.
Saturday the real fun begins! Here's a few exclusive sneak peeks at the Big 12 games.
