Interesting week for this late in the season as three upset specials hit and the biggest blowout of the week up in Madison wasn't the sole unanimous pick of the week. The honor roll ...
UNANIMOUS PICKS
===============
* AUBURN over Georgia: Correct, but only because neither team has a D
UPSET SPECIALS
==============
* MINNESOTA over Illinois: Ace McInturff
* USC over Arizona: Eric Steffe, Ace McInturff, Bib Waldele, Trey McAdams, Rob Stahl and Peg Wolfe
* TEXAS A&M over Baylor: Mark Ament, John Hodges, Bob Waldele, Trey McAdams, Alan Wolfson, Chuck Herron
And now to the big board, as Brad's lead is narrowing as we approach the final few weeks ...
