My Week 5 College Plays

[namja]

I can see where you may be confused. I made a lot of comments but comments do NOT equate to picks.

When someone posts a team with a line, whether it's in their own thread or a comment on someone else's thread, that constitutes a pick. And if they provide a whole paragraph of rationale ... then that's REALLY a pick.

I just skimmed over your post history, but these are DEFINITELY PICKS:

UCLA +3 1/2
Utah -4 1/2
Oregon +2 1/2
Va. Tech -2 1/2

A few games I like.

Purdue -6 1/2 (Westgate) vs Vanderbilt. If Brohm cannot get this team fired up at home after last week's humiliation against Nevada, he deserves what he gets. Vandy showed little offense against an uninterested Georgia team last week.

Syracuse +2 @ Maryland (Wynn). Syracuse is allegedly the #2 team in the ACC. If they cannot defeat a middle of the road Big 10 team, then they do not deserve to play in the CFP. Babers knows this. There will be no look ahead to Clemson next week, because a loss here eliminates them from CFP contention.

Nebraska -4 @ Colorado. (Westgate) Nebraska is allegedly a challenger for the Big 10 West title. They are going against the #6 Pac 12 West team. (6 out of 6) If Nebraska cannot win this game convincingly, what chance do they have when they play Ohio State, Purdue, Iowa, and Wisconsin?

Tennessee -3 vs BYU (MGM Mirage). This is a real "iffy" game for me, but I took Tennessee knowing that their chances of a bowl game are gone with a loss here. They still must go to Florida, Alabama, Kentucky and Missouri, plus host Georgia and Miss. State. Tennessee returns 17 players from last year, but have already lost 3 starters and two back-ups on defense. If Pruitt cannot get to a Bowl game and start putting fans back in the seats at Neyland Stadium this season, his seat may become unbearably hot.

Miami -5 @ UNC. (Westgate) This is a huge test for HC Diaz and the team that is favored to win the ACC Coastal Division. Miami played Florida very tough and basically gave that game away. UNC shocked South Carolina in their opener, marking the return of Mack Brown (now 15-0 ATS in his last 15 season openers) The question is simple. Just how good is this UNC team? How much of this line is hype because of their win and Miami's loss? A loss for Miami here sends them into mediocre land.

(...) indicates name of the sprotsbook that these games were played at.

Listen to me and listen good. I wager more on one game than you do in a month. When I make a pick, I will tell you it is a pick. For your benefit, I will try to be more explicit as the weeks go on. I do not see anyone in here wanting to challenge me, and that includes you. Fine. Like I told that loser bosbabies, any place, any time. I just as soon discuss games, but if you want to be a big shot and try me, be my guest. But to reiterate, NO ONE tells me who I picked and who I did not, or what constitutes a pick.

Updating: For all of you people in here, Navy-Memphis did go over 55. Winner. We have Penn State -6 1/2 Tonight. Tomorrow we have Baylor +3 vs Iowa State and N.C. State +7 @ Florida State. We are adding the following:

UAB -3 @ Western Kentucky. (CG TEch). UAB has a very good chance of winning the C-USA West title. They are 3-0 S/U and 2-0 ATS so far. Western Kentucky is 1-2, with losses to Certral Arkansas and Lousiville. 3 points seems like a bargain basement deal here.

Indiana @ Michigan State Over 43 (MGM Mirage). Indiana has to score to have any chance in games. While being held to 10 points by Ohio State in their only loss, they have scored over 30 points in their 3 wins against patsies. Michigan State has scored 110 points in their 3 wins against decent opposition. Dantonio will want to take care of business against the softer Big 10 competition with games at Ohio State, at Wisconsin, and home against Penn State on deck. We do not see a scoring fest here, but with such a low total, these teams should be able to cover the over.

We did not pull the trigger on the Cal game. Just too many points. So we ended up with 5 plays, one of which is a winner already. DMD, your serve sir. GL unless you faded us. Why people wish others who faded their picks GL has always been a mystery to me. How two-faced can you get? Do you really want them to win at a cost to you?

Penn State DESTROYED Maryland. 2-3. 2-0 this week so far with 4 to go.
