Alright football lovers, HERE WE GO!!! The games all count now and the NCAA football games have large schedules from here on out. So many games, the lines will not always reflect what will happen.

For example, did you know the the oddsmakers do not set the spreads based on what they think the line should be? They set the line based on what they think the PUBLIC thinks the line should be so money will come in on both sides of the spread.

Anyway, on to today's college games this Saturday, on the 9th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, so sad. Can you believe it's been 9 years already? Do you remember where you were when you first saw or heard about the attacks? I know I do, but on to today's selections, a nice distraction from such a disaster in the USA's history.

I love these picks so much that I'm making them my first "DOUBLE DOWN" plays of the year. Stanford is a 6 point favorite at UCLA. UCLA finished 6-6 last year under coach Rick Neuheisel. They only have one returning starter from their defensive front seven from last year and are starting almost all Freshman and Sophomores. Their QB is Sophomore Kevin Price and he's banged up and they have no established starting RB. On the other side of the story, Stanford is loaded. Starting QB, Andrew Luck, may be a Heisman candidate by season's end, he's a stud. Coach Harbaugh with Stanford is returning 7 defensive starters and 4 returning starters on the O-Line. They should contend for the Pac 10 crown this year. On top of all of that, Stanford is 8-4 ATS in the last 12 games vs. UCLA. Prediction, Stanford 34, UCLA 17. Double your normal play on this game!

Secondly, I like Oregon -12 at Tennessee. The Vols are in trouble. This is not the same team the Peyton Manning played for or the team that won the National Championship the year after Manning graduated. Tennessee coach Dennis Dooley is a first year coach with the Vols and is their third coach in the last three years. After Lane Kiffin suddenly left, many players transferred away as well, including RB Bryce Brown, starting QB Nick Stevens, and tackle Aaron Douglas. They have an already depleted program, a new coach and basically, the Vols are starting over with Oregon coming to town as their first opponent of the year. The Ducks on the other hand, warmed up last week with a 72-0 trouncing of New Mexico. Head coach Chip Kelly returns 17 starters from last year's team. Stud RB LaMichael James was suspended for last week's blowout against New Mexico, he's also back for this one. I see Oregon taking down the Vols. Prediction Oregon 41, Tennesse 17. "DOUBLE DOWN" on your bet with this play as well. Oregon will win, it's just a matter of by how much.
