    Teams that may be overlooking their opponent this week

    Cincinnati--This Week: @ Toledo; Next Week: @ #16 Louisville
    One week before what may be the battle for the Big East vs Louisville, Cincinnati will travel to the Glass Bowl to play an underrated Toledo team that is capable of putting up some points.

    Georgia--This Week: @ Kentucky; Next Week: vs #2 Florida
    It would be easy for the Bulldogs to overlook Kentucky any week, let alone the week before their biggest game of the year against rival Florida.

    Notre Dame--This Week: vs BYU; Next Week: @ #9 Oklahoma
    Next week Notre Dame will try to prove themselves as national title contenders against an OU squad that is finally living up to preseason expectations. However, this week they will play a BYU team that will limp into South Bend
    following a 42-24 home loss to Oregon State.

    Mississippi State--This Week: vs Middle Tennessee Next Week: @ #1 Alabama
    This is a classic letdown spot for a team that has struggled early in the year to inferior opponents (won 30-24 @Troy, won 20-10 vs South Alabama). They are undefeated, coming off a quality win vs Tennessee, and they have a huge opportunity at Alabama on the 27th, but first they have a pesky Sun-Belt opponent who has already won at
    Georgia Tech this season.

    I started doing them last week. Here were the results from last weeks look ahead alert:

    Week 7 Results: Favorites went 4-1 SU & 2-3 ATS

    Florida over Vandy (covered)--UF had their hands full for 4 quarters, then had some big plays at the end
    Arizona State crushed Colorado on Thu (covered)..It was close in the first half for a while, believe it or not
    K-State over Iowa State (no cover)--close, gritty battle...K-State takes care of the ball well enough to win
    West Virginia upset @ Texas Tech (no cover)-- blown out from start to finish...not even close
    Texas A&M over LaTech (no cover)--almost had enough penalties/miscues to lose after building a 27-0 lead
