NCAA Football - Week 9 Predictions

Ringer's Record
Last Week ATS: 13-7
Last Week SU: 19-1

Season ATS: 81-79 (51%)
Season SU: 138-22 (86%)

There was a shakeup near the top of the BCS standings this week as Kansas State used a blowout victory over West Virginia to leapfrog Oregon and become the new #3 team. Of course the SEC continued to hold down the top 2 spots with Alabama and Florida ranked 1 and 2 respectively. This week could bring about more chaos. 10 of the top 15 teams in the BCS have games against each other in what should be a wild weekend of college football. I used a 13-7 record ATS last week to move over .500 for the 1st time this season. I expect my upward swing to continue this week. Here is how I expect Week 9 of the college football season to play out. (Rankings are based on the current Ringer Poll)
