Who does college football legend Rudy Ruettiger like as his “Underdog Pick of the Week”.

LSU-Alabama was another instant classic! Again, Death Valley is a tough stadium in which to win, but Alabama pulled ittogether and won a big one.

Meanwhile, Auburn’s defense, which has been suspect all season, let the Tigers down against Texas A&M. The Aggiesshowed that they can win through adversity. Also, what a great game by freshmanquarterback Kyle Allen. His future is very bright.

Notre dame needs to get it together on defense. What the heck are they doing? I also can’tbelieve that Everett Golson is giving up those turnovers. The good news, though, is that the Irish will win out now!

Howabout TCU? I absolutely love their chances to make it into the first ever College Football Playoff. They are for real!

Looking forward to theMississippi State-Alabama game this weekend. There is no doubt that it will be a hard-fought game that will go all the way down to the wire.

Now on to my “Underdog Pick of the Week”. Florida State has the nation’s longest winning streak, and the Seminoles are comfortably in the College Football Playoff right now, but look for them to lose to Miami this Saturday night. Jameis Winston has thrown a ton of intereptions this year, and that will finally catch up to him. The Seminoles have taken a big step back on defense, and Miami running back Duke Johnson is still one of the more underrated players in the country.

Rudy Ruettiger – Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger is one of the most well-known and beloved players in college football history. Overcoming a series of difficult obstacles, Rudy ultimately accomplished his lifelong goal of playing football for Notre Dame by displaying uncanny resolve and determination in the face of adversity. His story was chronicled in the 1993 Hollywood movie “Rudy”, which has been widely-regarded as one of the most inspirational sports movies in history.
