What Will Happen: The Hurricanes are on the right path under Shannon’s tougher ways, but winning in Norman against a more talented Oklahoma team is asking too much. OU is at another level right now that Miami will get back to soon enough.
CFN Prediction: Oklahoma 24 ... Miami 13
What Will Happen: Wake’s home field energy will keep it close for a while, but in the end, Nebraska will wear down the lighter, thinner Deacons.
CFN Prediction: Nebraska 31 ... Wake Forest 20
What Will Happen: Missouri will have to withstand an early surge of emotion as the Rebel defense will come out roaring. After about 20 minutes, the Tigers will hit on a big pass play to change the momentum, and then will get a crushing score that Ole Miss won't be able to answer.
CFN Prediction: Missouri 27 ... Ole Miss 17
What Will Happen: Iowa State will come out roaring, but it might not matter. The offense will be more explosive with UNI having to key on Bass. If the Cyclone passing game doesn't take off this week, it isn't going to.
CFN Prediction: Iowa State 27 ... Northern Iowa 23
What Will Happen: Kansas will have this wrapped up by halftime. Don't be shocked if the Jayhawks go five-for-five on touchdown drives to start the game.
CFN Prediction: Kansas 55 ... SE Louisiana 10
What Will Happen: San Jose State's defense will play night-and-day better than it did last week, and it won't matter, The running game will be MIA for the second week in a row, and KSU will come up with at least three picks to make a close first half game a runaway in the second half.
CFN Prediction: Kansas State 27 ... San Jose State 10
What will happen: In one of the most unappealing matchups of Week Two, the bad team from the Big 12 will squeak out a close win over the bad team from Conference USA.
CFN Prediction: Baylor 28 ... Rice 14
What Will Happen: TCU just doesn't have enough horses to make it happen. Star DE Tommy Blake is coming off an undisclosed illness and star RB Aaron Brown is injured. Texas has had to hear about this game all off-season and will give it all the attention and focus it deserves.
CFN Prediction: Texas 17 ... TCU 10
What Will Happen: UTEP's offense will open it up a bit, but it won't matter. Texas Tech will be sluggish for about a half before opening it up once the game starts to get tight.
CFN Prediction: Texas Tech 34 ... UTEP 16
What Will Happen: FAU's defense will make it a harder night than OSU might like. It'll take a while, but eventually, the Cowboy attack will come up with a few big plays to finally get comfortable, but it won't be an easy ride.
CFN Prediction: Oklahoma State 45 ... Florida Atlantic 14
What will happen: Cody Hawkins has not lost a football game since the sixth grade. Arizona State will end that individual winning streak, getting 125 yards and two scores from Torain, and a second straight solid effort from its improving defense.
CFN Prediction: Arizona State 37 ... Colorado 17
CFN Prediction: Oklahoma 24 ... Miami 13
