If I was a Las Vegas book I would be broke today (as it is I\u2019m close to that anyway). I promise to be much better this week. Clemson at Notre Dame is the key matchup. \u00a0Clemson is without their top quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, because of COVID-19 for the second week. Di Uiagalelei, a gifted freshman, will be at the helm for the Tigers for the second straight week. I think the Fighting Irish will get the Tigers. Another interesting game is Liberty at Virginia Tech. Liberty is undefeated. And I give the Washington State Cougars the chance to start out on a winning note with new coach Nick Rolovich as they visit at Oregon State to start their shortened Pac-12 season. Arizona State at USC is supposedly a clash of titans in another Pac-12 matchup. I like USC. In the pros, it\u2019s Seattle going to Buffalo in a game of division leaders and New Orleans at Tampa Bay pits two future HHall of Famers \u2013 Drew Brees and Tom Brady \u2013 against each other for the second time this season. Brees won the first game in New Orleans. That\u2019s it.<\/p>\n<p>Be well pal.<\/p>\n<p>Be careful out there.<\/p>\n<p>Have a great day.<\/p>\n<p>You are loved.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>COLLEGES <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Miami at North Carolina State (Miami)<\/p>\n<p>BYU at Boise State (BYU)<\/p>\n<p>Michigan at Indiana (Michigan)<\/p>\n<p>Arizona State at USC (USC)<\/p>\n<p>West Virginia at Texas (Texas)<\/p>\n<p>Liberty at Virginia Tech (Liberty)<\/p>\n<p>North Carolina at Duke (NC)<\/p>\n<p>Michigan State at Iowa (MS)<\/p>\n<p>Florida at Georgia (Georgia)<\/p>\n<p>Maryland at Penn State (PS)<\/p>\n<p>Texas Tech at TCU (TCU)<\/p>\n<p>Oklahoma State at Kansas State (OS)<\/p>\n<p>Pittsburgh at Florida State (Pitt)<\/p>\n<p>UCLA a Colorado (UCLA)<\/p>\n<p>Clemson a Notre Dame (ND)<\/p>\n<p>Washington State at Oregon State (WSU)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>PROS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Seattle at Buffalo (Seattle)<\/p>\n<p>Denver at Atlanta (Denver)<\/p>\n<p>Chicago at Tennessee (Tennessee)<\/p>\n<p>Baltimore at Indianapolis (Baltimore)<\/p>\n<p>Carolina at Kansas City (KC)<\/p>\n<p>Detroit at Minnesota (Detroit)<\/p>\n<p>New York Giants at Washington (Giants)<\/p>\n<p>Houston at Jacksonville (Jacksonville)<\/p>\n<p>Las Vegas at Los Angeles Chargers (LV)<\/p>\n<p>Pittsburgh at Dallas (Pitt)<\/p>\n<p>Miami at Arizona (Miami)<\/p>\n<p>New Orleans at Tampa Bay<\/p>\n<p>New England at New York Jets (NE)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Last Week: 12-15<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Season: 123-64-1 (65.2 percent)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; TERRY MOSHER TOP OF THE TOWN \u2011 I probably would have done better if I had flipped a coin&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3889","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-column","category-mosher"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3889","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3889"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3889\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3890,"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3889\/revisions\/3890"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3889"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3889"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.sportspaper.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3889"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
