LSU is off bye after 13-3 loss to Florida- they rank 105th (out of 120) in passing yardage, so look for Jefferson to throw some early. Auburn is playing 8th week in a row, so edge for LSU there.

Texas Longhorns at Missouri Tigers (+13, 50.5)

Last week the No. 3 Texas Longhorns beat their marquee rivals Oklahoma 16-13 in the Red River Shootout, but as Texas head coach Mack Brown stated, "Oklahoma means nothing unless you finish it right".

Regardless of opponent, each week now serves as a national title elimination game for the Longhorns and this Saturday they will be featured on prime time on the road against Missouri (8 p.m. ET ABC Regional Coverage).

When Texas has the ball

Statistically, Colt McCoy has seen a bit of drop off from last year but the Longhorns are first in the nation in points scored at 42 per game and they have yet to lose a game. Still for an elite team, one can't ignore the offensive struggles in their last two games.

In their 38-14 victory over Colorado, most of the points came from defense and special teams. The offense only generating two touchdowns. Texas was down 14-10 in the third until a blocked punt return for a TD changed momentum.

Last week, they faced a tough Sooner defense and only got into the end zone once. Texas gets a bit of a break this week but the backfield will have to find a way to avoid All-Big 12 LB Sean Weatherspoon, who is averaging 8.33 tackles per game. However he has seemed to be the only bright spot in this underachieving defense.

With an inexperienced unit, Missouri has cut down on blitzes this year but it may have to change things against Texas. The defense has only given up 20.3 points per game but they have yet to face an offense with as many weapons as Texas.

McCoy is hampered a bit by an injured thumb but he won't have to do it alone, unfortunately for Missouri, Weatherspoon will.

When Missouri has the ball

The season began with a lot of pressure around sophomore QB Blaine Gabbert, who had the tough task of replacing Chase Daniel. Gabbert started the season well, throwing 11 TDs without an interception in his first four games.

But things got tougher in Big 12 play. In the last two games against Nebraska and Oklahoma State, the first-year starter threw five interceptions and only passed for one touchdown.

Head coach Gary Pinkel took the blame off his QB, stating that they should have ran the ball more against Oklahoma State. Down 24-17 at the half against the Cowboys, Missouri failed to generate a single point in the second half. The playcalling focused too much on the air attack.

Look for the Tigers to balance out their playcalling this Saturday and give their running backs more carries.

Regardless of gameplan, Missouri's key will be to isolate the impact of Sergio Kindle, who rotates on the line on both the strong and weak sides. This tough task will be placed upon sophomore tackles Dan Hoch and Elvis Fisher. Hoch, at 6-foot-7 and 315 pounds, was a high-profile recruit and Fisher, 6-foot-5 and 300 pounds, was first team All-Frosh last year.

The odds and weather

The spread for this Saturday's tilt opened at 14 in favor of the Longhorns and now sits between 12 and 13 at most books.

History shows that Texas comes out strong after their Oklahoma game, both straight up and against the spread. In the last four years, the Longhorns are 4-0 ATS in their post Red River Shootout game, covering the spread by an average of 18.25 points.

Texas, however, has struggled this year with the line going 1-4-1 ATS with its only cover coming against UTEP

Missouri started the season at 4-0 but lost its last two games, both against Big-12 opponents. The Tigers are 3-3 ATS but this is the first time this year that they have been double-digit underdogs.

In last year's matchup, both teams were ranked and the Longhorns were favored by four points. Texas easily covered the spread by jumping out to a 35-0 lead and winning 56-31.

The total for the game is at 50.5. Five of Missouri's six games have gone under the total, while Texas games have gone under four times in six contests. Last year's total was at 63.5 and it easily went over with 87 points being scored.

It's homecoming at Missouri and last year the Tigers won their homecoming game against Colorado 58-0. Obviously don't expect the same result against Texas.

A low of 46 is expected by kickoff with a zero percent chance of rain. Winds will blowing southwest at approximately 11 mph.

TCU Horned Frogs at BYU Cougars (+2.5, 52)

In the lone Top 25 matchup on Saturday's slate, eighth-ranked TCU will put their unbeaten record on the line against 16th-ranked BYU in Provo. The Horned Frogs hopes of being a BCS buster could be dashed on the road in this marquee Mountain West Conference showdown.

TCU

The Horned Frogs (6-0, 3-3 ATS) have used a pair of stout rush units to enter the weekend as one of the seven remaining undefeated squads in college football.

TCU is 11th in the nation in rushing offense while ranking 16th in the country in scoring offense. The Horned Frogs have a balanced ground game. Four players have rushed for at least 200 yards this season. Senior Joseph Turner leads the way with 399 yards and seven touchdowns. Versatile quarterback Andy Dalton has rushed for 233 yards and fired eight touchdown passes for the club.

The defense is ranked in the top 10 nationally in total, scoring, rushing and passing defense. Defensive lineman Jerry Hughes continues to disrupt foes on the front line for TCU. He leads the conference in sacks with eight after recording 15 sacks a year ago.

BYU

BYU (6-1, 4-3 ATS) is seeking redemption from their lone defeat of the season Saturday. The Cougars were in an ideal position to be a BCS team after their opening victory over Oklahoma but the club crashed and burned in a humbling setback against Florida State in Provo.

While TCU will look to move the ball on the ground, the Cougars will strike with a more balanced attack. Senior quarterback Max Hall directs an offense that is in the top seven nationally in total and scoring offense. He has passed for 16 touchdowns in 2009 but has also been picked off ten times. After being limited to only three carries in the first two games of the season due to an injury, Harvey Unga has stepped up to lead the conference in rushing with 575 yards. He is seeking his third straight 1,000 yard rushing campaign.

The defense is a respectable 48th in the country in total defense but is clearly a notch or two behind TCU's stop unit.

Cougars seeking revenge

The roles were reversed a year ago in Fort Worth when the undefeated, ninth-ranked Cougars were overwhelmed by TCU in a 32-7 loss. The Horned Frogs out rushed BYU 240-23 in the win. The defense forced four turnovers and sacked Hall six times.

BYU's QB feels that he has made some adjustments since last year's debacle.

"We had a lot of downfield, longer throws, where I was trying to launch the ball too long, and they were able to get to me," Hall told reporters. "This year, we have done a really good job of getting the ball out of my hands quick, and doing smart, efficient things down the field, and then taking shots every once in a while."

Trends

BYU leads the all-time series 5-3 with a 3-1 record at home. The two clubs have split their four meetings since TCU joined the conference in 2005. BYU has won 13 straight MWC games at home dating back to 2005. TCU is 20-2 (13-8 ATS) in its last 22 games while BYU has posted a record of 26-4 in its last 30 outings.

Weather

The forecast calls for partly cloudy skies with a high of 60 degrees in Provo, UT.

TCU at BYU [7:30 PM ET]

TCU (-2.5, O/U 51.5): The 10th-ranked Horned Frogs rely on a dominant defense and balanced offense as they go for a ninth straight victory. TCU has held 17 of its past 18 opponents to 18 points or less. The Horned Frogs rate fourth in the nation in total defense. They are yielding just 81.2 yards rushing per game. Only three touchdowns on the ground have been scored against the 6-0 Horned Frogs. All-American defensive end Jerry Hughes has eight sacks. He sacked BYU quarterback Max Hall four times during last year’s 32-7 TCU victory over the Cougars. Hall was sacked seven times in that defeat and had two passes picked off. TCU quarterback Andy Dalton is 17-2 as a starter since last season. The Horned Frogs are averaging 33.8 points per game, 16th-best in the nation. Jeremy Kerley has returned two punts for touchdowns in the last three games.

The Horned Frogs are 15-6-1 ATS in their last 22 Mountain West Conference games.
TCU is 27-13 ATS the past 40 times it has been favored.

Key Injuries - Running back Ryan Christian is questionable.
Defensive end Ross Forrest (arm) is questionable.

PROJECTED SCORE: 27

BYU: The 16th-ranked Cougars have won a record 13 straight Mountain West Conference home games. They have won 23 of their last 25 home contests. BYU will attack TCU’s highly-rated defense with star quarterback Max Hall and running back Harvey Unga, who has scored at least one touchdown in each of his past five games while averaging 95.8 yards rushing per game. Unga rushed for two touchdowns when the Cougars beat TCU at home two years ago, 27-22. The key will be how BYU’s big but slow offensive line handles the Horned Frogs. Hall is connecting on 70 percent of his throws, but has thrown 10 interceptions. The Cougars are 9-3 against the spread in conference revenge situations and have gained a season-high in yards versus four of their last seven opponents. BYU, though, has failed to cover seven of its last eight games in October.

The Over has cashed 13 of the last 19 times BYU has met a team with a winning record.
BYU has gone Over in its last 5 Mountain West games.

Key Injuries - Wide receiver McKay Jacobson (hamstring) is questionable.

PROJECTED SCORE: 25 (OVER - Total of the Day)
