Big 12 Football- Week 2 Preview

Here is a preview with predictions for the Big 12 Conference in Week 2.

Oklahoma vs Cincinnati- Oklahoma will look to defeat a pretty good Bearcat team. Cincy won 10 last year. OKlahoma puts the Bearcats away in the 2nd Half. OU 42-21

Oklahoma State vs Houston- Cowboys got the season off to a good start at Wazzu. Kevin Sumlin is getting a well-deserved shot at a head coaching job. Cowboys are too much at home. OSU 45-21

Texas A&M @ New Mexico- Bad loss in Sherman's debut. Lobos are tough at home. Not good for the Aggies. New Mexico 24-21

Nebraska vs San Jose State- The Big Red got going last week. The D needs to play better. San Jose State was improved last year. Huskers roll 45-17

Baylor vs Northwestern State- Baylor got embarrased by Wake. The Griffin kid could be a star. The Demons are an FCS team. This will be ugly. Bears 21-10.

Kansas State vs Montana State- Cats look to punce on another hapless victim. Josh Freeman is pretty good. K-State 55-7.

Missouri vs Southeast Missouri State- This one will be ugly. Mizzou 63-3.

Kansas vs Louisiana Tech- The Bulldogs beat Mississippi State last week. Hawks know that and will not let that happen. Rock Chalk Jayhawk! KU 45-21

Iowa State vs Kent State- Cyclones are getting better. The defense picked off 5 passes last week and scored 2 TDs. ISU 28-17.

Texas Tech @ Nevada- Get the flip charts ready, in case the scoreboard burns out for this one. Red Raiders 52-35.

Texas vs UTEP- Horns host an Miner team that got blasted by Buffalo. Not the Bills. Texas 52-10

Colorado vs Eastern Washington- Buffs were impressive over Colorado State. The Eagles gave Tech a hard time. Not this week vs the Buffs. CU 31-10.

UCLA 27 Tennessee 24 OT

UCLA kicks a 42 yard field goal in OT, and the vols miss a 35 yard field goal to tie. Rick Neuheisel wins his debut as the Head Coach of his alma mater.

UCLA QB Kevin Craft threw 4 INTs in the 1st half, but was sensational in the 2nd half to lead the Bruins back from a 14-7 halftime deficit. UCLA's defense played wonderful, considering they were on the field a ton.

Now only 2 more days until week 2 begins!

Tennessee @ UCLA Preview

The Vols head out to the west coast, looking to start this season off on the right foot. Last year Phil Fulmer's team went out west and gotbeaten down by Cal, and went on to struggle last year.

Both teams will have new QBs: Jonathan Crompton for the Vols and Kevin Craft for UCLA. Craft started 5 games at San Diego State in 2006 and played JUCO ball last year.

Crompton has the luxury of a veteran offensive line, and a good running back and receiver. Craft was the 3rd choice to run Rick Neuheisel's offense. Patrick Cowan and Ben Olsen suffered injuries that put Craft in the spotlight.

I'll go with Tennessee 24 UCLA 20.
