Georgia over South Carolina
Florida over Kentucky
UCLA over Texas
UCLA: Charlie Strong has yet to right the ship in Austin. And the struggles continue against UCLA. Make sure to bring a towel, this one could get messy.

Missouri: UCF has their first action since losing to Penn State with a last-second field goal in Week 1 in Ireland. They can use the jet-lag as an excuse this week. Mizzou wins big.
