Expect some weirdness this weekend in college football.

With no games matching ranked teams, and what is shaping up to be a monster Saturday on the horizon, you might look at the schedule and think it's a good time to get a little yard work in. Maybe run some errands.

Be careful.

The season is still young enough that we really don't know which teams are good and which are headed for disappointing seasons.

This week, for example, as Southeastern Conference play opens, we get our first look at No. 1 Georgia against an opponent that might have a sliver of hope of actually beating the two-time defending national champions.

It's not so much that you should expect the unexpected as much as we really don't know what to expect.

No. 11 Tennessee at Florida

The Vols broke a five-game losing streak to the Gators last year, and haven't won two in a row in the series since 2004. The rivalry seems to be on the verge of flipping back to Tennessee, with Florida still trying to find its groove in Year 2 under coach Billy Napier.

For the Vols, QB Joe Milton is still in the prove-it phase as starting quarterback. The Gators need a bounce back after the Week 1 clunker at Utah.

LINE: Tennessee by 6 1/2. PICK: Tennessee 34-24.

No. 8 Washington at Michigan State

Michael Penix Jr. and the Huskies' offense announced their arrival last season in an emphatic victory against the Spartans. Washington's offense has been on point through two games this season, with Penix throwing for 859 yards and eight touchdowns.

The Spartans will play without suspended coach Mel Tucker, looking for the type of victory that it hasn't had since 2021.

LINE: Washington by 16 1/2. PICK: Washington 28-17.

No. 15 Kansas State at Missouri

The defending Big 12 champion Wildcats have rolled through the first two weeks at home and now face what should be a good SEC road test. The Tigers rank 10th in the nation in yards per play allowed at 3.83. K-State has been solid on defense, too, allowing 3.98 yards per play.

LINE Kansas State 4 1/2. PICK: Kansas State 23-17.

Western Kentucky at No. 6 Ohio State

The Buckeyes have committed to Kyle McCord as their starting QB after he was better in Week 2 than in Week 1. Still, the explosive offense Ohio State has become accustomed to has yet to fully arrive.

The Buckeyes might need it this week. QB Austin Reed and the Hilltoppers like to sling it around. WKU WR Malachi Corley, who left the opener after taking a hard hit to the chest and sat out last week, is an NFL talent.

Don't necessarily put the Buckeyes on upset alert, but they best not mess around.

LINE: Ohio State by 27 1/2. PICK: Ohio State 49-17.

South Carolina at No. 1 Georgia

The Gamecocks are the last team to beat the Bulldogs at home, back in 2020. That seems like a long time ago.

Georgia has the longest overall winning streak in the country at 19 games.

Getting a read on the Bulldogs through the first two games has been near impossible given the competition. News alert: They're good again.

Facing the Gamecocks should provide a better assessment, though if the South Carolina offensive line that gave up nine sacks to North Carolina shows up in Athens, the 'Dawgs will feast.

LINE: Georgia by 27 1/2. PICK: Georgia 34-10.
