Week four looks to be the best of the season so far. Here are my picks and predictions.
Game of the Week: (9) Miami vs (11) Virginia Tech: Its been a few years since the Hokies and Canes were considered some of the best teams in the country. Now, they're back in a battle between 9 and 11, and one sure to make some noise.
Why Miami will win: Jacory Harris. He has fueled Miami to the season that they have had so far, and their #9 ranking. He is one of the best dual-threats in the nation, and I think he is better than Tyrod Taylor. Miami's defense has yet to prove themselves, but look for them to come out fired up and ready to dominate up front. But playing in Lane Stadium changes everything.
Why Virginia Tech will win: Tyrod Taylor showed how well he can perform under pressure with his game-winning drive against Nebraska last week. And he will be ready to do it again in front of what will be an energetic Lane Stadium. VT will find a way to win by dominating on the ground and going right through the heart of the Miami defense.
PREDICTION: Though VT is playing at Lane Stadium, there offense was shaky against Nebraska's Big 12 defense. Playing against an unproven defense like Miami's will be an interesting matchup. Look for Miami's defense to have another shaky game, but force a lot of turnovers while keeping VT below 30. FINAL: Miami- 38 Virginia Tech- 26
Upset Alert
(5) Mississippi vs South Carolina: Mississippi is one of the biggest surprises being rank at number five. Look for Steve Spurrier to do what his teams do best, and pull of an upset.
(15) TCU vs Clemson: TCU is another one of those mid-major teams that will play great throughout the entire year, but never have a real statement game to make themselves a worthy team in the eyes of coaches and fans. This is that game for them, however, it won't turn out in their favor.
Teams on the Rise
Michigan: Another win, and they stay on the list of teams that will make noise this year
UCLA: 3-0, yet they move down in the polls. They have a tough stretch of games ahead of them with Oregon and Cal back-to-back.
Houston: Still look impressive, but we can really tell after this Saturday's game vs Texas Tech.
Pretenders: This is the section for teams that really shouldn't be where they are in the rankings.
(5) Mississippi. They have played no real great teams, and seem a little overhyped
(9) Miami: I think they should be moved up. The only team that has 2 very good wins on their resume.
(24) Washington: They were ranked in the 80s, and are now in the Top 25 despite one loss?

What do you think about the Miami loss uclabruin094. It didn't shock me, I knew Harris wasn't ready and Miami is not the team they are made out to be...but what do you think? Think they'll bounce back as strong as I think they are or will this blow get them off track to the ACC title game?
