#13 Kansas at #19 South Florida [ESPN | 8 PM ET]

Kansas: The Jayhawks come into this matchup averaging 35 points per game. They are led by quarterback Todd Reesing and receiver Dezmon Briscoe. Reesing has thrown for 668 yards and six touchdowns over the season?s first two weeks, including a career-high 412 yards with three scores in last week?s win over Louisiana Tech. Briscoe caught three touchdowns in the season opener and already has 16 receptions for 201 yards in 2008. However, the Jayhawks offense will step up in class against a tough South Florida defense. Coming off its first shutout against a major-college team since 1999, the Kansas defense isn?t too shabby itself, allowing a total of 10 points on the year.

Kansas is 5-0 ATS in its last 5 road games.
Kansas is 6-1 ATS in its last 7 non-conference games.

Key Injuries - WR Dexton Fields (leg) is OUT.
CB Kendrick Harper (neck) is doubtful.

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD

South Florida (-3.5, O/U 47): The Bulls have exceeded more than 500 yards in back-to-back games against Division I-AA Tennessee Martin and state rival UCF. This week the Bulls face a Kansas squad that hasn?t allowed an offensive touchdown in two games this year. The leader of South Florida?s offense is quarterback Matt Grothe. The junior racked up over 400 yards of total offense last week and his mobility should cause a lot of problems for the Jayhawks. The Bulls? two top running backs ? Mike Ford and Ben Williams ? are both nursing injured ankles. After two weeks, South Florida?s pass defense ranks fifth in the nation, allowing just 94 yards per game. Kansas has a couple of young tackles and that could be a problem tonight when they go up against pass rushing demon George Selvie.

South Florida 4-1 ATS in its last 5 games in September.
The OVER is 4-0 in South Florida's last 4 non-conference games.

Key Injuries - RB Mike Ford (ankle) is questionable.
OL Zach Hermann (foot) is OUT.

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD

Saturday, September 13

Michigan at Notre Dame [NBC | 3:30 PM ET]

Michigan (-1, O/U 35.5): After falling to Utah in its opener, Michigan rebounded with an ugly win over Miami, OH at home. After the win head coach Rich Rodriguez admitted the program still has a ways to go and said he will continue to rotate quarterbacks Steven Threet and Nick Sheridan. Rodriguez was hoping that one of the young quarterbacks would have established themselves by the Notre Dame game, but that hasn?t been the case. The Wolverines are still looking for playmakers on offense, while seven of the top eight offensive linemen from last year are either gone or injured, further hurting the offense?s production.

Favorite is 3-9 ATS in the last 12 meetings.
The UNDER is 13-3 in Michigan's last 16 September games.

Key Injuries - LT Mark Ortmann (shoulder) is out.
RB Michael Shaw (groin) is probable.

PROJECTED SCORE: 17

Notre Dame: The Fighting Irish were expected to be much better this season but it didn?t show last week when Notre Dame barely escaped at home against San Diego State, one of the worst teams in Division I. The Irish scored two fourth quarter touchdowns to pull out to win, thanks to quarterback Jimmy Clausen throwing for 237 yards and three scores. Clausen did throw two picks but looked more comfortable leading the Irish offense than he did a season ago. Notre Dame?s rush defense played well against the Aztecs, allowing just 71 yards on the ground.

Notre Dame is 9-19 ATS in its last 28 games.
The UNDER is 10-2 in Notre Dame?s last 12 non-conference games.

Key Injuries - FS Jashaad Gaines (personal reasons) is questionable.

PROJECTED SCORE: 20 (Side Play of the Day)

#5 Ohio State at #1 USC [ABC | 8 PM ET]

Ohio State: With the big matchup versus USC looming, the Buckeyes almost forgot they had to play a game against Ohio first. Ohio State trailed the Bobcats 14-12 before pulling away in the fourth quarter. Head coach Jim Tressel even admitted after the game that he thought his team was looking ahead to the Trojans. Tressel better hope that?s the case because if the Buckeyes don?t play much better on Saturday, they?ll get blown out. The offense sputtered without star running back Beanie Wells, who is expected to play this week. Todd Boeckman threw for only 110 yards against the Bobcats, often missing open receivers badly. If Boeckman struggles early against the Trojans, expect to see freshman sensation Terrelle Pryor get more snaps under center.

Ohio State is 11-3 ATS in its last 14 road games.
Ohio State is 5-0-1 ATS in its last 6 vs. Pac-10.

Key Injuries - RB Chris Wells (foot) is probable.
CB Donald Washington (suspension) is probable.

PROJECTED SCORE: 14 (UNDER - Total Play of the Day)

USC (-10.5, O/U 43): After hammering Virginia 52-7 in the opener, USC has had two weeks to sit back and wait for the Buckeyes to visit. While this is a huge game for both teams, Pete Carroll said the coaching staff will spend a few days of the week working hard with the younger players before getting into game-planning for Ohio State. USC?s defense manhandled Virginia and they must be licking their chops after watching the Buckeyes struggle offensively against Ohio. Mark Sanchez looks like he is going to be the next great USC quarterback after throwing for 338 yards and three touchdowns against Virginia. In a battle between two of college football?s best defenses, Sanchez could be the deciding factor.

USC is 6-1 ATS in its last 7 games following a bye week.
The UNDER is 6-1 in USC's last 7 home games.

Key Injuries - WR Vidal Hazelton (ankle) is probable.

PROJECTED SCORE: 24

#10 Wisconsin at #21 Fresno State [ESPN2 | 10:30 PM ET]

Wisconsin (-1.5, O/U 51): After two tune-ups against Akron and Marshall, the Badgers travel to a place no BCS school likes to go: Fresno State. Last week Wisconsin fell behind Marshall 14-0 but then scored 51 unanswered points to win 51-14. New quarterback Allan Evridge showed he could throw the ball when called upon to do so, tossing for 308 yards and a touchdown. Evridge will need a repeat performance against a tough Bulldogs defense that will crowd the box to stop the run. The Wisconsin pass defense still needs some work after allowing 239 yards through the air to Marshall.

Wisconsin is 12-4 ATS in its last 16 non-conference games.
Wisconsin is 0-6 ATS in its last 6 road games.

Key Injuries - CB Mario Goins (foot) is questionable.
TE Travis Beckum (hamstring) is probable.

PROJECTED SCORE: 27

Fresno State: The Bulldogs have already toppled one BCS conference team when they traveled cross-country to Rutgers and easily disposed of the Scarlet Knights. This time Fresno State will have the luxury of playing in front of sold-out and raucous Bulldog Stadium. It will be a giant opportunity for the Bulldogs, who often must go on the road to play against quality opponents. Fresno can?t afford to get off to a slow start this week like they did against Rutgers when they went scoreless in the first half. Quarterback Tom Brandstater will look to exploit the Badgers secondary but Fresno State?s receivers need to hang onto the football. They had four drops against Rutgers.

Fresno State is 3-10 ATS in its last 13 home games.
The OVER is 4-1 in Fresno State's last 5 non-conference games.

Key Injuries - LB Nick Bates (arm) is OUT.
