GAMES OF INTEREST (WEEK 5)

Here are some games that have poll implications for the coming week. Generally, I select games that involve teams that are ranked (or receiving votes) and that have a reasonable chance to either be an upset or a game that involves a team that might be ranked as a result. As always, if you have any you think should be added, let me know. Teams listed in parentheses are not ranked, but did receive votes.

Also, new poll question this week (regarding weekly predictions), and I am interested to hear your thoughts on the rules and guidelines that I sent out via e-mail...let me know your thoughts!

Some of the games listed as "ESPN360.com" are probably also available on various regional sports networks and/or satellite or cable packages. You are on your own for those. All games listed are on Saturday, October 3rd.
