We will preview a college football week each day for 15 days, including scores and updated standings for each week. At the conclusion of those previews, we will present our bowl match-ups with results and final updated pre-season Power Rankings (see original rankings below).

Rosters and depth charts are up-to-date and as accurate as possible as of August 1, 2008. A schedule of upcoming college football preview content including links to other previews that have already been posted is located here.

Also, see below for details on how you can run your own college football program for FREE.

Today we preview Week 6.

Game of the Week: #22 Arizona State 30.1 (4-1) @ California 29.9 (3-2) Week 6 is another week with very few close games, but this Pac-10 shootout is definitely worth watching. Winning just 59% of the time and by only 0.2 points in average score, Arizona State finds itself on top of the conference after five games - it's only loss coming to #2 Georgia earlier in the year. Quarterbacks Rudy Carpenter and Nate Longshore will be hurling the ball all over the field, but this result comes down to the team with the better redzone defense, and that belongs to the Sun Devils. ASU gets USC next week.
