DFC X Week Ten Games

COLLEGE GAMES
(9) LSU Tigers (7-1) at (3) Alabama Crimson Tide (8-0), 230p, CBS
The Gators finally had their "big game" coming out party last week, albeit against a defenseless Georgia team, and its time for Bama to do the same. Even being jumped by Texas in the AP Poll and the standings, as long as Bama can get to the SEC title game, they've got a shot at the whole shebang, but this is the biggest test of the year. LSU got good all of a sudden.

Florida State Seminoles (4-4) at Clemson Tigers (5-3), Time TBA
Hard to tell in this game. Depends on which FSU team shows up. FSU's defense stinks, Clemson's is mediocre at best. Where's the game, Clemson? Eh, FSU in a shootout. -- Sez 2 time DFC Champ & Hall of Famer Wookiee Fulaytar. Its also worth noting this game will help shape the outcome of the Atlan... er, the Coas... er, the Coaslantic Divi... uh... no one knows who is in what division in the ACC.

(17) Ohio State Buckeyes (7-2) at (12) Penn State Nittany Lions (8-1), 230p, ABC
The Big Ten has lost a lot of its luster in recent years, mainly due to the inability of Ohio State to win the big games. It's easy to forget that even with 2 losses, OSU still controls their own destiny and can return to the Rose Bowl if they find a way to win out. Penn State's defense has been very stingy this season at Happy Valley, giving up an average of only 7 points per game at home. The real question will be can Terelle Pryor step up and lead the "Buckeyes" in their latest "big game" or will the Nittany Lions stifle the potential phenom? -- Sez James Hawbaker, a member of the Big Ten/Iowa faithful

Oregon State Beavers (5-3) at (24) California Bears (6-2), 6p
Personally, I think this will be the "toss up" of the weekend, and don't let that #24 in front of Call fool you. Only one game separates these two teams, and OSU is not that bad, while Cal is really not that good. Pick 'em!

NFL GAMES
Baltimore Ravens (4-3) at Cincinnati Bengals (5-2), 12p, CBS
I would have totally gone Cincy on this one, but the Ravens dismantled the Broncos on Sunday, and truly--they looked really good. And how much stock can you put into the Bengals? However, lest we forget Cincy is one freak Bronco foot bounce away from being 6-1.

Kansas City Chiefs (1-6) at Jacksonville Jaggywires (3-4), 12p, CBS
And, I would have totally gone Jax this week... except they lost to the 0-344 Titans. Badly. Really badly. But the Chefs... well, they suck.

Dallas Cowboys (5-2) at Philadelphia Eagles (5-2), 720p, NBC
I see the Boys as down, the Eagles as climbing, and somehow, McNabb is not only healthy, but actually playing well. Go figure.

Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2) at Denver Broncos (6-1), Monday Night, 730p, ESPN
Sadly, all I can think of is, the shine is coming off the Broncos now. Especially after getting slaughtered by the Ravens.

TIEBREAK GAME
LSU/ALABAMA... two of the best defenses in the country. Total points scored.
