1. LSU and Oregon (Arlington)—September 3  Why? Someone is going
to drop in the polls and fall behind in the pursuit of the BCS
title. The two teams come into the season with the Ducks ranked
third and LSU sitting at fourth.  2. Arkansas and Texas A&M
(Arlington)—October 1  Why? The Razorbacks have bigger dreams
than just an SEC title. They believe they have the juice to win
it all in New Orleans. This game is a must win for the Hogs to
move the dream toward reality.  3. Georgia and Boise
State(Atlanta)September 3  Why? If the Dawgs lose this game, the
Mark Richt watch will officially begin in Athens. A win by Boise
State puts them on the path to an undefeated season. This is for
SEC pride as well.  4. Alabama at Penn StateSeptember 10  Why?
This is a college football classic pairing. Both schools are
obviously tradition rich, but there is more to this game than
just memories. This will be the Tide’s first true test and Penn
State should be an improved team this year.  5. Florida State at
FloridaNovember 26
