College picks for the week starting with Thursday night. I liked Louisiana on Tuesday but didn't pull the trigger, situation bounce prevailed in that game.
Tonight's action shows a team who's dominated the other, Ga South is 7-0 SU and beaten USA Jags pretty well, however in this situation, home team on TNF as a fav haven't fared too well.
7 pt: Ga South +10 & Under 50 1/2
Navy +11
Syracuse +14
N Illini -9
Over 67 TT/Kansas (5 units) Jayhawks allow tons of points and Tech can score yet Tech gives up points as well, this is an open air stadium, their could be some weather, however, the edge goes to Red Raiders 49-27
Indiana +5 - Sparty is ready for a loss with narrow margin wins and Indiana had Sparty's number last year and at home with some time to get it all together
Over 39 1/2 Army/Wisky (5 units) Army can score, Wisky is reeling and HC Chryst is under the gun here so his team better show up vs the AAC, Wisky 35 Army 21
BC +3 - BC is undervalued some and N C State I believe is reading the print and hyped after their win vs the Clemson Tigers who are down in experience this year, BC can make things happen and they are at home here.
UCF +21 (5 units) UCF Knights can score and their numbers on D are somewhat comparable to the Bearcats, Bearcats off big wins vs ND, but other than that opponent, they've played NO ONE!! I'll take the 3 TDS and XPs here, looking for a closer fought battle sorta like, 31-27 type game!!
Over 55 Ball St/EMU (5 units) Both teams give up as much as they score and last year they had 69 points so nothing changes here.
Arizona St -1 1/2 - Sun Devils under Herman Edwards are playing well Utah off a big win vs USC who suck this year once again and the "D" that the Sun Devils play should prevail here for a 27-20 win on the Pac12 road.
Over 54 UCLA/Wash - Both teams with suspect "D" and Huskies a small home fav vs Chip's dips
Over 56 Liberty/ULM - Liberty can score as many as they want vs a team at home that gives up points relatively easy, ULM gives up tons of yards on running plays and over 8 yards on passing players per catch, so the Flashes probably put a hurting on ULM, 52-17
Texas -4 1/2 (5 units) Texas big let down after 28 point lead vs rivalry game and Okie State still undefeated, however, Longhorns can score and they are at home and Texas did manage a win last year before Sark so now he's going to focus on where the Horns can poke the Cowboys here, 41-30!!
Over 59 Okie St/Texas
TCU +13 1/2 - Sooners with a QB controversy? Really? Rattler is just so so and is as good as his team blocks for him, yet the BU is versed is running the Sooners O, and now they are off that big comeback last week and now face an up/down Horny Toad squad who typically play well on the road as a DD dog and go for the scare or upset in Norman.
Purdue +11 1/2
Over 66 Kent/WMU
Georgia -22 1/2 - hard to go against the dawg "D" and Kentucky beat on a bad LSU team that just can't stay healthy enough to finish a game this year it appears
LSU +10 1/2 - Home dog role in the SEC vs Florida off a shutout, all eyes on the craving cajun here to come up with a big home win as a DD dog.
Tennessee +3 (5 units) - Ole Piss should have lost that game vs the Hogs last week, however, the Hogs just couldn't put a stopper on the QB Corral at all, Hooker and the Vols are a bit better on paper than the Hogs though UT is not rated, look for the Vols to put up some numbers here with some speed at home in Rocky Top, UT 42 Ole Piss 30
Over 52 Iowa St/Kansas St - K St a dangerous home dog here vs the Clones, appears to be a home cooking set up for a back door win, State 30 Clones 27
Kansas St +7
La Tech -6 1/2 - UTEP is undefeated? Really? LaTech with better overall athletes and "D", so taking the fav in a crazy conference, LT 31 UTEP 20.
