Week 8 CFB Picks – ONE LATE CHANGE!!
YTD record is 23-15 (61%)
1 – Bama -28(-115)
I grabbed this one early as most books have it as 29. I don’t think it matters. Trust me, I would be ok losing this one, but Bama is better than LSU, PERIOD.
2 – North Carolina +10-
I think the Heels make this one interesting at Clemson. [...]
5 Things We Will Learn in Week 7 of CFB
1 – Is Michigan for real?
They travel to rival Sparty this week, after a tough game at Northwestern last Saturday. Sparty has proved they are ready with a win at “The Shoe” earlier this year. Huge game.
2 – Is Okie State for real?
They travel to an angry group of Longhorns, so we will [...]
Winners and Losers from Week Six of CFB
Here we go:
Losers
1 – Texas
55-17? Nuff said
2 – Tennessee
I hate to say it, but this might have been the only chance for this team to get a signature win.
3 – Big Ten Officials in NW/Michigan game
If you didn’t see the “no call” when Persa’s helmet was ripped off, then the play is over, it [...]
Feast or Famine?
That is the way it has been this season so far. It’s not the 17-11 record, which is 61%, it is the good, bad, and very ugly weeks I have had. Let’s see if I can turn this thing around.
1 – Virginia Tech -7 over Miami
Me thinks “Beamer Ball” gets established this week [...]
5 Things We Will Learn in Week 5 of CFB
Here are five things that we should know more about after Week 5.

Robert Griffin, III is the hottest QB on the planet right now. They travel to Manhattan, Kansas to play a very good Kansas St. defense. RG3 has led Baylor to [...]
Week Four Analysis and Plays
We are off and running with a 15-3 start, but I still caution everyone to take it easy. This week’s lines are very tight, but I think there are a few totals that can be had.
***Making a change and taking Miami off the board and moving in ND/Pitt over 56 7:45AM
Indiana/North Texas over 55
Neither [...]
Winners and Losers from Week 3 of College Football
Here are my five winners and losers from week 3 of the season. (Other than me, who is off to a blazing 15-3 start!)
Winners
1 – Dabo Swinney
Listen, most people knew Auburn was not a great team after week one, but this does not diminish how big this win was for Clemson at home. [...]
Week Three Analysis and Plays
It’s hard to explain an 11-2 start, but I won’t apologize. I really feel that there were some soft lines in the first couple of weeks. This week, the lines are getting tighter.
Here is what I am going with in Week Three:
Sparty @ Notre Dame
It is hard to comprehend how a team can [...]
