I don't post too much, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to get some winners on my record:
I don't like the big spreads but these look too good to pass up.
Picks - all big plays Ranked 1 to 4 Stars (****)
Michigan -27.5
How can a lowly Houston compete on either side of the ball against a stacked and experience Wolverine team in their house. This should be covered by half time.
3***
Missouri-14
This is a good football team with a great leader. This was close to my best lock were it not for the team playing on the road. This should be another big beating.
3***
Minnesota -24.5
Another lopsided affair. Minnesota is loaded on the offensive side of the ball and a sleeper in the Big 10. Should be an abosolute blowout against a much weaker opponent that may score a few but not enough to cover.
2**
New Mexico +13
This is just too much to give to a team with some solid talent. T-Tech isn't the same without Kingsbury, and I see the Lobos hanging tough and maybe squeeking out an upset, but I'll take every point.
2**
Washington -24.5
At home and pissed off against a weakling opponent that doesn't care about its football program. This should also be over at half time.
2**
Texas A&M -9
Franchione will re-establish the A&M fire and make them contenders once again. They certainly aren't as talented as their Texas rival or the Sooners but can handle a mediocre Utah team, especially in their house. The Utes can keep games close, but I see A&M outscoring the Utes by 2 Ts.
1*
Virginia-3.5
This was tough and barely made it on my list due to the key injury to the Cavalier team. But, they are clearly on the rise and Groh has this team outperforming its talent every year. To be honest, they are talented and should handle another well coached team by this small margin even on the road. Likely tough, but certainly doable.
1*
Other Leans not in my record:
NC St -8
Iowa St -18.5
ND -6 (tough game - see what the coach can pull off this yr)
Mich St -19 (keeping an eye on Smoker before putting up my $$)
Auburn -8 (would have been a lock if not for last week..scary)
Dog Leans
Kansas +11.5 (don't like sketchy teams, but this looks good)
Maryland +14.5 (too good of a team to be beaten this badly)
Could make a lot of money or lose my ass...
We will see! But, its good to have football back. I freakin love this Sh&%!
Good luck!
