Saturday's Tough Ones

Mississippi over LSU. LSU has too many injuries to beat the talent-rich Rebels.

Auburn over Florida. The Gators will find that Auburn's Sidle is rarely ever idle.

Alabama over Mississippi State. State is overmatched, especially at quarterback.

Georgia Tech over Duke. Tech defends tenaciously, Duke yields too readily.

Wisconsin over Michigan State. But the Badgers will have to contain MSU's speed.

Nebraska over Missouri. Nebraska's Claridge does everything; Mizzou's backs only run.

Navy over Notre Dame. Roger Staubach's nimbleness will thwart the strong Irish rush.

Army over Air Force. Army's Cadets are sturdier in the line, steadier on the attack.

Syracuse over Pitt. A case of a tougher defense halting a versatile offense.

USC over Washington. The Huskies are not up to handling Beathard, Brown and Bedsole.
