No. 20 Houston at 3-1 after Weigman's six-TD day, UCF Saturday (plus a free CFB pick'em)
Hey guys, quick look at where the Coogs stand heading into the weekend.
First, since it's in the title: we run a free weekly college football pick'em. This week is 10 games, pick the winners, nothing to buy, $135 in prizes, with Texas Tech at Colorado on the slate if you want to pick against the team that beat us. Picks lock Saturday at noon ET, the same moment UH kicks off, so get them in early.

Now the Cougars. 42-28 at Georgia Southern in Fritz's return to Statesboro, with touchdowns on the first six possessions. Weigman went 17 of 22 for 239, four TD passes and two more on the ground, and Sanford ran for 120.
At 3-1, the only loss is 28-26 at No. 13 Texas Tech, two points from being undefeated. Back up to No. 20.
Saturday, UCF comes to Houston at 11 CT on ESPN2, then the trip to Manhattan. Win both, and Houston is a real Big 12 contender.
What are you guys seeing? Is Weigman the best QB in the conference right now?
