4-3-1 last week (22-14-3 overall), I am getting aggressive and making picks on 13 games this week. I have a pretty good feeling about this slate of games. More importantly, Hockey starts today and the Blackhawks start their title defense (9 central on Versus). Heading to Boston this week for a monster Notre Dame wedding, hoping the Irish pull it out. Onto the picks…..
Nebraska to cover in Manhattan (giving 11, o/u 51.5) against KState
The Cornhuskers are awesome and KState just finished up their usual slate of noners and creampuffs. The Blackshirts might pitch a shutout, and their offense should rack up points after they get the feel of the Kstate D. Also feel good about the over.
Illinois to cover in Happy Valley (getting 7.5, o/u 42) against the Nittany Lions
Joe Pa and the Lions have been regressing all season, and while most people would expect a bounce back performance after the L in Kinnick, I don’t. Penn State is mediocre and Illini has the athletes to keep any game close.
Sparty to cover in the Big House (getting 4.5, o/u 63.5) against Michigan
Will be shocked if Denard makes it through 4 quarters. The Spartan LBs should slow him enough and the Spartan Offense should go nuts.
Georgia to cover between the Hedges (giving 10.5, o/u 48) against the Vols
Lot of anxiety in Athens these days, smacking the Volunteers around with 2 or 3 AJ Green touchdowns is the cure for at least a week.
Bama to cover in Columbia (giving 7, o/u 48) against the Gamecocks
Love the Gamecocks and Spurrier, just can’t see their offense scoring anywhere near enough to hang with the Tide.
Florida to cover in the Swamp (giving 6.5, o/u 42.5) against the Bayou Bengals
The Tigers’ luck runs out on Saturday in the Swamp. It should be a turnover fest and I would not be surprised to see a couple defensive touchdowns by the Gators.
The Irish to cover in South Bend (giving 6, o/u 49.5) against Pitt
Pitt is one dimensional and while they might be able to hit Baldwin for a couple of big plays down the field, I have a feeling that the Irish offense explodes. This might be a stay away game.
The Razorbacks to cover in Fayetteville (giving 5, o/u 62) against the Aggies
Can not trust Jerrod Johnson and Mike Sherman on the road against a good team. Mallet will pick them apart and they will not be able to make the adjustments the Tide did.
Miami to cover at home (giving 6.5) against the Noles
The Seminoles are awful on the road and the Miami D might be really good. Jacory and Leonard Hankerson will hook up for points and a victory.
Oregon State to cover in Tuscon (getting 8.5, o/u 50) against Desert Swarm
Been riding the Beaver s as roaddogs the entire season, going to stay on them in Tuscon. Their young QBs lack of turnovers has allowed them to cover against Boise and TCU, and hopefully it will continue.
Auburn to cover in Lexington (giving 6, o/u 57.5) against Kentucky
Kentucky is awful, 6 is too low
Northwestern to cover in Evanston (giving 9.5, 50.5) against the Boilermakers
Purdue is awful, 9.5 is too low
Stanford to cover in Palo Alto (giving 10, o/u 59) against USC
Harbaugh owns the Trojans.
