Michigan, Michigan State is the top match up of the weekend. There are some quality money making match ups this weekend. Here are my top games and picks for week 8 of the college football season. Auburn at Ole Miss (+3.5, 63.5): Both programs have fallen off since the start of the season. Auburn is a mess right now. They cannot run the ball and their defense is struggling. I’m…
Laviska Shenault cost himself a shot at the Heisman after the Buffaloes lost to USC last weekend. Some thoughts on Week 7 of the college football season. 1. Texas clearly experienced an Oklahoma hangover but in the end, they were able to beat an improved Baylor team. 2. Notre Dame also experienced a hangover against Pitt. Quarterback Ian Book struggled in the first half. The mark of a good team is finding…
P.J Fleck will have his Gophers ready to play at the Horseshoe. Lots of quality games to put money on in Week 7. Here are out top games and who you should take. Minnesota (+29.5, 59.5) at Ohio State: The Fighting Fleck will play Ohio State tough at the horseshoe and cover as a dog. Minnesota’s ability to run the football and get pressure on the quarterback will be the…
Chad Morris will have his Hogs ready against Alabama today. My picks for today. There are a lot of jump ball games this week so pick wisely. DO YOUR HOMEWORK! Research is key this week. Northwestern at Michigan State (-10, 43.5): Sparty hasn’t lived up to the hype but neither has Northwestern. -10 is a big number but I think Michigan State covers. Northwestern struggles to score points. Maryland at Michigan (-17.5, 47.5):…
Here ten thoughts I have on Week 5 of the college football season. 1. I often wonder if Chip Kelly regrets taking the UCLA job. I don’t care what anyone says. Being 0-4 has to hurt Kelly’s pride. 2. No I don’t think coaches should put their hands on their players. Jimbo Fisher was in the wrong. Should he be reprimanded? Yes. Fired? No! That’s foolish. 3. I can’t believe…
Ok folks. Here are the games I am betting on in week 5. There are some big time match ups on the docket. West Virginia at Texas Tech (+3.5, 73): I must admit, I was wrong about the Red Raiders. They actually play complementary football. Their defense has been terrific and that will be the difference against Will Grier and the Mountaineers at home. Syracuse at Clemson (-25.5, 65.5): I…
Texas is back baby! For now. Week four had some highs and lows. Here are some thoughts on the weekend that was in college football. 1. Texas is back! Ok maybe not but wins over USC and TCU in the last two weeks are still impressive. 2. I feel bad for Boston College fans. They actually believed that their beloved Eagles were a contender in the ACC and then they…
Here are some thoughts on the week that was in college football. 1. Alabama is a machine. Period! They absolutely pounded a good Ole Miss team 62-7. 2. I can’t say I’m surprised that Wisconsin lost to BYU. You could see it coming when they fell behind. Wisconsin is not built to come from behind. 3. Florida State has a lot of problems right now on both sides of the…
Week two was highlighted by Kansas and Kentucky snapping two of college football’s longest losing streaks with wins over Central Michigan and Florida respectively. Here are ten thoughts on the week that was. 1.After beating USC, Stanford is for real but I can still see them tripping up. Oregon maybe? 2. Michigan State cost themselves a shot at the college football playoff by losing to Arizona State. No offense to…
Week one is here. Here are our picks against the spread for Saturday. Oklahoma -23 vs. Florida Atlantic: Lane Kiffin has made FAU relevant again but it won’t matter against Kyler Murray and a talented Oklahoma offense. Houston -21 at Rice: Houston should take care of business and coverage against a struggling Rice program. Ohio St -38 vs. Oregon St: The Buckeyes have a lot to prove without Urban Meyer…
