DFC X Week Seven Games

Thanks to Lt. Dan the Rookie for some game suggestions when I was struggling with the college picks...

20. Oklahoma Sooners vs. 3. Texas Longhorns, 11am, ABC
This game is played at Fort Jerry, the new stadium in Dallas, a "neutral site", and its always our TieBreak game--it was the game that created the "Drop"

California Bears (3-2) at UCLA Bruins (3-2), 230p, ABC
Weren't these teams supposed to be good?

Kentucky Wildcats (2-3) at Auburn Tigers (5-1), 630p, ESPNU
I know Auburn is a 15 point favorite, but Auburn was also a heavy favorite against Arkansas, and we see what happened there. Still, most people will pick Auburn, but if you pick the Cats and you win, its a great way to gain a game.

Missouri Tigers (4-1) at 16. Oklahoma State Cowboys (4-1), 815p, ESPN2
Yeah, OK State is 16th, but first, what does that even mean this year, and secondly, OK State might not be that great... and Mizzou isn't that bad either.

NFL Games
Baltimore Ravens (3-2) at Minnesota Vikings (5-0), 12p, CBS
Seriously, though? Is Favre still this good? Or is it going to fall apart really, really soon, a la the 2008 NYJets?

The New York Football Giants (5-0) at The New Orleans Football Saints (4-0), 12p, Fox
So, I'm going to be the first of about 68,000 people to say "this is the biggest game of the weekend"

Kansas City Chiefs (2-3) at Washington Redskins (0-5), 12p, CBS
The other game I was considering was the Panthers and the Bucs, but I was afraid that one of the teams might not show up, and then what would we do with our game picks?

Chicago Bears (3-1) at Atlanta Falcons (3-1), 720p, NBC
ATL looked really good Sunday. Cutler is fun because you never know what you'll get (much like Romo). You could get 400 yards and 4 Tds or 100 yards and 4 INTs. Sez Dan Sellers.

Tiebreak Game
Oklahoma & Texas, total points scored
