How is it that we're already staring the end of the college football regular season in its face? 

After Saturday, we've only got two more weeks before conference championship weekend.

Good thing we're currently on a high note, as we come into Week 12 with four more wins.

Let's keep going.

Last Week: 4-1

No. 19 Virginia @ Duke

This number took a big hit the other day from 6.5, so someone apparently thinks UVA QB Chandler Morris will be back. I’m not sure that it ultimately even matters, as UVA has been begging for losses — even with Morris in the lineup. The world was on UConn last week against Duke and the Huskies and Blue Devils delivered what bettors expected. However, as Pat Narduzzi would tell you, too, that was a non-conference game and Duke still has a great shot of reaching the ACC title game, as it only has one ACC loss. Coming off a poor defensive effort last week and with a chance at playing for an ACC title in their hands, I expect Manny Diaz’s team to take care of business this weekend.

PICK: Duke (-4) to win by more than 4 points

Arizona @ No. 25 Cincinnati

The Bearcats had an off week after getting blown out by Utah, but Arizona is a team I have been impressed by. Zona had BYU beat, but couldn’t finish, and Noah Fifita — who hasn’t thrown a pick in a month — could give the Bearcats a big upset scare. 

PICK: Arizona (+6.5) to lose by fewer than 6.5 points or win outright

Mississippi State @ Missouri
