Big 12 Game of the Year! (Best Bet)

Texas Tech at Kansas
Play: Kansas 5 units

The Kansas Jayhawks will be looking to knock Texas Tech from the unbeaten ranks. The Red Raiders will to stay focused on the game at hand, but that will hard to do with a game against Texas coming up next week. Kansas has been very tough at home this season winning all four games by an average of almost 29 points per game. The Jayhawks have covered their last three games against the Red Raiders. The Red Raiders are 0-4 ATS after amassing more than 450 yards in the previous game. The Jayhawks are 5-0 ATS against teams with a winning record. They have also covered the spread in four straight games after giving 40 points in their previous game. The Jayhawks have won their 14 games at home. Take the Jayhawks on their home field to win and cover the number


WAC Conference Game of the Year!

Nevada at Hawaii
Play: Nevada -3 5 units

The Nevada Wolfpack offense will be too much to handle for the Hawaii Rainbows. Nevada is running the ball for 304 yards per game while passing the ball for 214 yards per game. Over the last three games, Hawaii has struggled to stop the run giving up 209 yards per game. Nevada will have revenge on their minds after Hawaii beat them 28-26 in Reno. Hawaii is not the same teams with June Jones no longer the head coach and will not be able to keep up with the Wolfpack.

4* OKLAHOMA ST. +12.5

The Oklahoma State Cowboys and the Texas Longhorns put perfectly identical 7-0 records on the line, in this big time Big 12 battle this Saturday. Everyone in the media and his dog, is absolutely in love with the Longhorns and their star QB Colt McCoy, which sets up well for the biggest let down situation and upset of the year . Remember when , Texas came in against Oklahoma as underdog and upset them 45-35 . The pundits and linesmakers for the most part thought that the Sooners were the superior team. I myself thought , OU was over rated, and I was right. Do not get me wrong Texas was impressive in that game, and what was even more impressive was HC Mack Browns ability to keep his teams emotional adrenalin pumping right into the Missouri game delivering a 56-31 pounding of a Missouri Tigers team that had a one dimensional pass attack.

I thought the Longhorns would be in an emotional letdown situation, last week, after their big win against Oky. They instead came out strong against Missouri, but seemed to start running low on fuel in the 2nd half of that game, and I'm betting they run out of gas completely before this current game ends. Three straight games, against this type of competition, will take a great deal of needed energy out of any team and unfortunately for the Longhorns that is the situation they find themselves in.

Oklahoma State has come a long way, over the last few years, and are in my opinion the most under rated team in the country, and are a dark horse national championship contender. I think most pundits are still having a hard time, believing Oklahoma State can be on the same level as a big name program like Texas or USC . You can call me crazy, but this Cowboys team behind one of the nation's premier offenses has the ability to move the chains, against any opponent in this nation. OSU unlike Missouri or even Oklahoma owns the best ground attack in the nation, behind the legs of Kendall Hunter( 9TDs) . I know the Cowboys are ranked at fifth in the country in rushing at 283.1 yards per game, but in my opinion are better than their current ranking, as their 24 Tds illustrates. The best part about the Oklahoma State offense, is that the passing game is equally as dangerous , averaging 218.3 yards per game, with Zac Robinson (70.1 %,1,488 Yds,14 TD ) under center. This lethal ground and aerial attack combines to put an average of 46.4 ppg on the board. Needless to say, they will be able to run and gun with their opponents today, in what will be a back forth slugfest. The deciding factor will come, down to which team is fresher and has the most stamina. OSU after what I can best describe as an easy 34-6 winning scrimmage against Baylor last week, is hands down the pick.

Final notes & Key Trends: Texas is 10-20 ATS off a home win against a conference rival . Oklahoma State in a game with a total of 63 or higher(11 games), have seen their margin of victory ring in at SU by an average 7.9 PPG.

Mississippi-6.5 vs Arkansas

The Mississippi Rebel (3-4; 1-2) travel to the Arkansas Razorback (3-4; 2-2) in a Saturday evening game.The Rebels have RB Dexter McCluster who has been erradick and plagued by turnovers. He has great abilities to move the offense and has to show on the field Saturday. The Rebels defensive front has been great against the run and has to make the Razorback abandon the running game to help them win this game. The Razorbacks have to maintain an offensive balance and has to be effective throwing the ball. RB Michael Smith had a standout game against Kentucky last week rushing for 192 yars and two touchdowns. The defensive has been lackluster as they allowed Kentucky to come back from a 20-7 deficit and beat the Razorbacks 21-20.The Rebels are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games on grass; 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games; and 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games overall.The Razorbacks are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall.

I like the Rebels to win by a good margin as we suggest giving the points and taking the Rebels on the road.


Hawaii +3.5 vs Nevada

The Nevada Wofpack (4-3; 2-1) travel to the islands to visit the Hawaii Rainbows (3-4; 2-1) in a WAC conference game. The Rainbows are double tough at Aloha Stadium and will pose a problem to the Wolfpack.The high scoring Wolfpack have scored at least 45 points for the fourth straight game with a 44-17 defeat of Utah State last week. QB Colin Kaepernick threw for a touchdown and ran for two more as they stomped the Aggies at home. He was 1020 for 197 yards with one interception. The Warriors lost to Boise State on the road by a 27-7 score. QB Inoke Funaki was 17-34 for 188 yards and 5 interceptions.The Wolf Pack are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 road games and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following an ATS win. The Warries are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games in October and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 conference games.

We like the Warriors getting the points at home.


Georgia Tech -14.5 vs Virginia

Two ACC teams that are playing well meet in a Saturday Afternoon Tilt. The Virgina Cavaliers (4-3; 3-1) meet the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (6-1; 3-1) in an ACC dog fight.After a stumbling start, Virginia has become a factor in the ACC race by winning three straight includinga 16-13 overtime win over North Carolina last Saturday.Georgia Tech beat Clemson 21-17 last week to jump into the top 25 and are on top of the ACC. Their defense ranks in the top 10 in the country in eight separate categories and rank fifth in the nation in scoring defense at 11.6 ppg.The Cavaliers are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 road games while the Yellow Jackets are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 conference games and 5-0 ATS in the last 5 games overall.

We like the the Yellow Jackets at home to explode and win convincingly. Give the points and take the Jackets at home.

Bowling Green @ Northern Illinois
PICK: Bowling Green +8

Bowling Green let another game slip away in the fourth quarter last week, allowing a late touchdown drive to Miami-Ohio as the Red Hawks earned their first win of the year against FBS competition. The loss marked the second time in three weeks that the Falcons defense couldn’t get a stop when it mattered most. Of course, the seven and three point losses would both be good enough to cover this pointspread. And there are plenty of reasons to expect a better effort from Bowling Green on both sides of the football this time around.

Bowling Green head coach Gregg Brandon, following last week’s loss: “There’s a lot of football left and these kids are capable of winning games if we become a consistent team and take no stupid penalties.” Let’s not forget that BG returned 17 starters from last year’s eight win bowl bound team. Despite suffering two MAC losses already, the Falcons are still very much in contention for the MAC East title, thanks to their win at MAC East leading Akron two weeks ago. With a 3-1 SU record on the road this year (6-1 dating back to last year), hostile environments haven’t been so hostile for this veteran squad.

And we’ve got a couple of pertinent quotes from the BG defense indicating that they expect a better showing this time around. Senior linebacker John Haneline following the loss to Miami-O: “It’s probably the most frustrating game I’ve played in, in my career. To be honest with you, it’s just disgusting to me.” Senior defensive end Adrian Baker: “When our team is playing together and we take care of those (little) things, we can’t be stopped.”

Had this game been played in Week 1, Bowling Green would have been the road favorite, not an underdog of more than a touchdown. It’s certainly not like the Huskies are an unbeatable foe; a 2-10 team from last year with a redshirt frosh QB making only his third career start this week. And let’s not forget the Huskies head coach Jerry Kill and his staff visited Bowling Green to view the Falcons spread offense during his tenure at Southern Illinois. Many of the things he learned on that trip were incorporated into the Huskies attack this year, giving Bowling Green a solid level of familiarity with the offense that they are going to face on Saturday.2* Take Bowling Green.

USC vs. Arizona
Pick: USC -15

There talking big in Arizona about this being a program game, but there is one problem with that. This game is bigger for USC after Arizona beat Cal last week. This now becomes the biggest game left on the USC schedule and don't think that will slip by Pete Carroll. Beating the WSU's of the world by 69 is nice but a win over a proven quality team like Arizona is what is necessary to keep the Trojans in the Nationa Title hunt. Remember that teams like Florida, LSU, Georgia, Texas, Oklahoma and Oklahoma St. all have huge games left on their schedule to help build their resume if they end up with one loss. Every one of those teams could still win their conference championship and huge BCS points while USC is sitting at home.I really love this game, but my love for it would increase if the Buckeyes have a 10-14 lead on Penn St. when this game kicks off because that means Ohio St. would go 11-1 this year with their lone loss being a blowout at USC and those BCS points would be huge. One final factor for me on this game is that USC has underachieved in their previous performances against the Wildcats and Carroll will us that as motivation as his defense dominates on the way to a 38-13 win!

Virginia vs. Georgia Tech
Play: Georgia Tech -14

Look for the Ramblin' Wreck to run over the Virginia run defense. Paul Johnson G Tech team will do even more damage (avg. 248 yds per gm) than what UNC did last week(166yds rushing)against the Cavaliars. G Tech has the 5th best scoring DF in the nation just giving up a 11 pts per game! G Tech is also ranked in the TOp 10 in Red Zone DF. Yes...Virginia has had three impressive wins but this time they will come to earth against G. Tech. To put it simple Virginia does not match up well against G. Tech Yellow Jackets 31 Cavaliars 10

Texas has been good to me this year but I have no loyalty towards college football teams. Dont be surprised if this Cowboys team goes to Austin and throws a wrench in the college football world.
They can win this game trust me. They are that good and Texas is due for a letdown game having played Oklahoma and Missouri the last two weeks. If Okie State does lose they arent doing so by 13 points. Their offense is good enough to keep them in this one and their defense is good enough to slow Texas.
Take the points but dont be surprised if we see #1 again.
