Big week for my picks. 4-1 in Vegas 5 moving me to 36-29. 16-8 in Top 25/SEC moving me to 156- 125.
This week I go with Texas Tech (+10) at Texas, the Over (46.5) for Notre Dame at Stanford, Georgia (-28) over Georgia Tech, the Over (64) for Texas A&M at LSU, and Oklahoma St (+13) when they host Oklahoma.
The Mac Attack is here.
Last week 3-2 in Vegas 5, now 32-28 for the year. Another 10-10 week in Top 25/SEC for a season total of 140-117.
This week the Over (39.5) for Minnesota @ Northwestern, Baylor (-5.5) against Texas, the Over (61.5) for Western Carolina @ Alabama, Oregon State (+10.5) @ Washington St, and the Over (65) for TCU @ Oklahoma.
Not feeling well this week. It will be brief. CFP still has it right.
Last week 3-2 in Vegas 5 bringing me to 29-26. Top 25/SEC went 10-10 to move to 130-107.
This week I will take Wake Forest (+34.5) against Clemson, Georgia (-2.5) at Auburn, Rutgers (+52.5) against Ohio St, Under (73.5) for Hawaii at UNLV, and Over (68.5) for Arizona at Oregon.
November in college football is like Saturday in a golf tournament. You sure can’t win it yet, but you can eliminate yourself from a championship. Despite what the average fan seems to think, there are more titles than the National Championship. When the Sun Belt Champ lifts the trophy they will be ecstatic.
The CFP Committee got it right. Every is overreacting to where teams are. Most seem to forget that there are four games left in the regular season on top of Championship Weekend. As Aaron Rodgers once said, “R-E-L-A-X.” This is money time for the nine or ten teams still hoping to make the playoffs. I still think Oregon is in a good spot. The Big 10 and SEC champs should be in. An undefeated Clemson goes, but a one-loss Clemson sweats it out. One-loss Oklahoma is already sweating.
I’ll be at the logistical nightmare that is LSU @ Alabama. Why can’t we just play football without all the nonsense? I wish GameDay would’ve chosen Penn St and Minnesota.
Last week my Vegas 5 continued to dip. 2-3 again brings me to 26-24. In Top 25/SEC I went 10-6, which takes me to 120-97. This week I like Kansas St (+7) at Texas. I’ll take the Over (47.5) for Penn St at Minnesota and the Under (43) for UTSA at Old Dominion. The Over (38) for Iowa at Wisconsin and Arizona St (-1.5) when the host USC.
Where’s your action?
One month remains in the march to championship weekend. Teams are beginning to feel the pressure and drop games they really shouldn’t.
Oklahoma has lost its safety net and Notre Dame is now playing for bowl positioning. Nebraska and Texas once again proved that the experts occasionally look at the name on the front instead of the facts when making their preseason picks.
The big boys are all off this weekend (except Clemson plays Wofford). The nation should turn its gaze to the Sunshine State. The game that used to mean something will be interesting as Miami visits Florida St. The Cocktail Party will decide the SEC East. I still like Florida, but I’ve been wrong this season before. And kudos to ABC/ESPN for properly making SMU at Memphis the prime-time game. Oregon lines up for its big test at USC. Should be a great day to watch college football.
Last week my Vegas 5 went 2-3 dropping me to 24-21. I need to get better if I want to stay above water. In Top 25/SEC, I went 9-9 putting me at 110-91 for the year.
This week I take Florida (+6.5) against Georgia. I like Utah (-3) at Washington and the Under (58.5) when Miss St goes to Arkansas. I want the Over (47) for Virginia at North Carolina and Hawaii (-2.5) against Fresno St.
