Texas gets signature win in ugly fashion:

Heading into the Red River Shootout against Oklahoma, most experts didn’t know just how good this Texas team is because they really hadn’t been tested up until this past Saturday.  It wasn’t pretty by any stretch of the imagination but Texas pulled out a 16-13 win over the Sooners in a tough, hard fought game.  Texas knocked out Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford early in the first half but still let the Sooners’ QBs throw for 327 yards.

Oakland, St. Louis, and Tampa Bay can’t cover any number:

The Oakland Raiders were 15.5 point road underdogs against the New York Giants this past Sunday and got beaten to a bloody pulp, losing 44-7. Their offense is just plain awful. They are averaging 9.8 points per game and only 191.6 yards of total offense. JaMarcus Russell, the former number one overall pick, is a total bust as he thrown only 1 touchdown pass in the first five games. Defensively, the Raiders aren’t much better, giving up 26 points per game.

Nebraska is the team to beat in the Big 12 North:

Nebraska squared off against an undefeated Missouri team on Thursday night and came away victorious. The weather conditions were extremely poor with the rain causing both teams to make mistakes. Nebraska trailed 9-0 at halftime and 12-0 at the end of the third quarter.

Saints get signature win and look like an elite team:

The New Orleans Saints took on the undefeated New York Jets this past Sunday and came away with a 14 point victory as 7 point home favorites. It appears that no one can stop the balanced offense of the New Orleans Saints, not even Rex Ryan’s attacking 3-4 defense. Drew Brees didn’t have a big day numbers wise as he only threw for 190 yards and one touchdown but he made the big play in crunch time. With Pierre Thomas back healthy the Saints were able to show that the Saints are not just a passing team.

IDAHO: 5-0 ATS

Most experts picked the Idaho Vandals to finish at or near the bottom of the WAC standings heading into the season but they have been cashing tickets for their backers all season long. Idaho is 4-1 straight up but an astounding 5-0 against the spread making them the most profitable team in college football through the first five weeks. Idaho has been the underdog in all five of their games but they have won all of them except one.

Oklahoma not a BCS Team without Sam Bradford:

Oklahoma has played two ranked teams this season and failed to win either one of them. This past week they went on the road to play Miami as a 7 point favorite and lost the game outright. The Sooners sorely miss the reigning Heisman Trophy winner Sam Bradford. Landry Jones was highly touted out of high school but simply lacks the leadership qualities that Bradford possesses.
