~ College Football ~
Match Of The Week Preview: (By MikeFromOhio) wasnt supposed to be a weekend that gave us great games, yet it gave as many as Separation Saturday did. Between the instant classic that was Notre Dame vs. Michigan State, to the shocking upset of Boston College by NC State, to the near heart attack that Georgia gave its fans against Colorado, the weekend was absolutely spectacular. This week features one real marquee matchup. #1 Ohio State visits Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City to play #13 Iowa. This should be an excellent game. Other notable games are #24 Georgia Tech at #11 Virginia Tech and Alabama at #5 Florida.

(1) Ohio State (-7) at (13) Iowa
Ohio State faces easily its biggest in conference challenge until the Michigan game in November. This is a sneaky tough game with an Iowa team that dominated Ohio State the last time they played (33-7 in 2004) in Iowa City. That was then and these are both very different teams. Iowa, having escaped Syracuse and played two consecutive uninspired games against Iowa State and Illinois, have a chance to make a lot of noise in the Big Ten and nationally. Ohio State has a chance to keep the dream season going. The key of this game comes down to the battle of the Quarterbacks. If Troy Smith throws 2 interceptions like he did against Penn State, Ohio State will struggle to win this game. Same goes for Iowa and QB Drew Tate. If he struggles or gets rattled like what happened last year against Ohio State, then Iowa will struggle to win this game. In the end I think Ohio States defense will continue to play well enough to put this team in position to win the game. Iowa will keep it close, but this Ohio State team went into Austin and won. Iowa can win this game, but I think Ohio State will win this game.

Faithful Reflection Is it me or is it you? And tell me, Are you being true? Am I really seeing me Or maybe just someone who I want to be? I stand here every day Just hoping that youll sway My mind into believing That all I see is me But somehow deep inside I know I cannot hide From the truth that is no lie The reflection is not mine Its someone who I want to be Or maybe who I used to be But I know full well its not me Faithful Reflection Is it me or is it you? And tell me, Are you being true? Am I really seeing me Or maybe just someone who I want to be?
