Swicat's College Picks

Back after a week off to celebrate my brother in law's wedding.

Time to get back to work.

Here are my plays:

5*

Northwestern/Minnesota over 48- This game has OT and thus the over written all over it.

Clemson -2.5 vs TCU- using the tried and true theory that when vegas makes an unranked team a favorite over a ranked team then pound it for as much as you can.

Stanford -8 vs Washington- See above plus Washington is not even a .500 team in the PAC 10 when it is all said and done.

4*

Alabama/Arkansa under 58- Alabama will be able to control Ryan Mallet with their variety of blitzes and control the clock with the run game.

Kentucky +22.5 vs Florida- Betting that the gators will be in let down mode while playing the defending national champs at home in primetime will bring out the best in a talented kentucky team.

Purdue +7.5 vs ND- Nice win by the irish last week but they will be playing a very inspired team in Purdue. ND should pull this one out but it will be a dogfight until the end though.

3*

Cal -6 vs Oregon- Cal looks to be the real deal. Oregon has gotten off the mat but Cal will be too much for them even at the great Autzen stadium.

Tennessee/Ohio over 45- Ohio presents a defense that the anemic vols offense can score on again and again.

Just for fun (sorta)
T. Tech/Houston over 73
army +10 vs Iowa St
Ball St +33 vs Auburn
Pitt pk vs NC St
Navy/W. Kent under 50

Good luck!

Good luck.

Like most of your plays.

That Clemson play is a sneaky one and I like it too. Seems fishy and I like the unranked fav angle.

I think Washington may have hit their peak value wise and if they got spanked by USC we would be looking at double digits there. I like Stanford too and played them in a ML parlay with Notre Dame.

Thanks for the support-

Last week, oregon was in the same spot. Unranked favorite vs Utah and took care of business.

I hope the trend keeps going

You missed some other games that the ranked team was a dog vs a non-ranked team.

Earlier today
North Carolina ranked and a dog of 3 to Geargia Tech and Tech won!

tonight Texas Tech is -1 1/2 vs Ranked Houston.

Houston at home, ranked and still adog, gotta take TT.

You're absolutely right- not sure why I missed the GA tech game. That was a lay up.

i am taking the over on T tech. Hopefully that will be less stressful than watching them battle it out til the last minute like Clemson.

Go Stanford!

Good luck,
