In Pursuit of Perfection

Several teams have arrived at Week 7 seeking to preserve their perferct seasons.  Succinctly:

****  LSU -15 1/2 @ TENNESSEE
Saturday 2:30 CBS
LSU is 6-0. They will be 7-0 after this weekend, and they will have done it ATS.
The lighthouse at Ponce Inlet, just a
bit south of Daytona, FL.  There is
no connection to today's selections,
Ponce Inlet is simply a place that I
like.  A lot.

***  OKLAHOMA -33 1/2 @ KANSAS
Saturday 8:15 ESPN2
Oklahoma is 5-0. They will be 6-0 after this weekend, and they, too, will have done it ATS.


** OHIO STATE +4 @ ILLINOIS
Saturday  2:30 ABC
Illinois is 6-0.  They, unlike the two "and 0's" listed above, will not find their dalliance with perfection extended through the weekend. 



*  IOWA STATE @ MISSOURI -15 
Saturday  1:00 TV tba
I was sorely tempted to continue to highlight the unbeatens, but I came across this matchup of 3-2 @ 2-3.  I like Iowa State in general.  I think that Missouri, playing at home and based on its performance against a superior schedule, should be just fine for us.

There's others that are in pursuit of (continuing) perfection that worth your time this weekend, too:
  • 6-0 Clemson -8 @ Maryland  Saturday 6:00 p.m. ESPNU
  • 6-0 Georgia Tech -7 1/2 @ Virginia  Saturday 2:30 p.m. ESPNU
  • 5-0 Stanford -21 @ Washington State  Saturday 6:30 p.m. Versus
  • 5-0 Oklahoma State -7 1/2 @ Texas  Saturday 2:30 p.m. ABC or ESPN
hmmm...I feel another parlay about to erupt.  Watch for " 7 on 7".
