Tough Week To Find Decent Games
With Clemson and South Carolina both off and the SEC celebrating Cupcake Saturday, it was a tough week to find enough interesting games.
All eyes will be on Columbus, Ohio, as the Luckeyes face their first test of the season when the Nittany Lions come to the Horseshoe. The other game that could have an impact on the CFP standings is Texas A&M traveling to Athens to tangle with Georgia.
Last week was a stellar slump buster. The record was 8-2. The misses were Georgia beating the spread at Auburn and Oklahoma failing to cover at Baylor.
The season record now stands at 14 games over .500. Not too bad for late November.
Here are this week's selections. As always, the picks are against the spread and for entertainment purposes only.
Oklahoma State at West Virginia +7.0 -- Pokes' potent offense featuring running back Chuba Hubbard will be too much for the Mountaineers. Pick -- Oklahoma State
Texas A&M at Georgia -13.5 -- The Aggies have played a much tougher schedule. I believe they will hang inside the spread. Pick -- Texas A&M
Penn State at Ohio State -18.0 -- I just don't believe in Penn State. Pick -- Ohio State
Illinois at Iowa -15.0 -- Illinois is one of the biggest surprises of the Big 10. Pick -- Illinois
Boston College at Notre Dame -19.5 -- The Irish will dominate the Holy War. Pick -- Notre Dame
UCLA at USC -13.5 -- The Trojans were a surprise entry in the CFP Poll. Fight On! Pick -- Southern Cal
SMU at Navy -3.5 -- I think I'm going to ride with the Ponies. Pick -- SMU
Pittsburgh at Virginia Tech -4.0 -- After this one, the loser will officially be out of the Coastal Division race. I like the hot Hokies at home. Pick -- Virginia Tech
Texas at Baylor -5.5 -- Baylor gets back on the winning track. Pick -- Baylor
Duke at Wake Forest -7.0 -- Both of these teams have been suffering on offense. Wake Forest is looking for the Big Four title. Wake already has beaten North Carolina and N.C. State. Take the Demon Deacons at home. Pick -- Wake Forest
Last Week -- 8-2
For The Season -- 67-53
