I have been bringing winners here week after week, so let see what we can do this time around. For those keeping track, even my NFL picks are 8-6, so everything is clicking.
COLLEGE
Oregon St. (+11.5) Utah
Cincy (-3) Marshall
Kentucky (+16.5) Alabama
3-star Auburn (-4) Vanderbilt
N.C. State (+9) Boston College
Iowa (+7.5) Mich. St.
Nebraska (+10.5) Missouri
Purdue (+13) Penn State
Considering how well I've done in the colleges, it would probably be wise to lighten up... I instead go with 8 picks. The first is a classic trap game, as it is hard to see how the Beavers could be an 11 point dog to anyone. I just don't believe the Utes are that good. I am a big fan of the Bearcats' Coach Kelly and have been waiting for the right opportunity to play them, which I hope is this week. Did you know that Vandy and Kentucky are undefeated? The oddsmakers believe in the Commodores, but I think it will be easy like sunday morning for Auburn. Bama comes off the biggest win the program has had in a while, so I expect they will be flat. Wolfpack's O'Brien was the coach at BC, so I suspect his team will come up with enough to keep it close. I have been off Iowa all year and on Michigan State, but the Hawks have been a bit unlucky this year and I suspect this one will go down to the wire. I bet against the Huskers homefield last week as a favorite, but I like them getting points in Lincoln. The Boilers are another team that I like getting points at home, as Penn State usually finds a couple spots where they slip up during each season.
NFL
Detroit (+3.5) Chicago
Philly (-6) Washington
Minnesota (+3) New Orleans
Not a fan of this week's Pro games.
