Another 3-2 week last go, but that beats 2-3.

YTD: 15-20-1 - 3.8 units

Game One:     The Zips are enduring another horrible campaign on offense and they are down to their 3rd string QB to boot.  I kinda have some love for Greg Paulus because he has done a respectable job without a very good offense around him, albeit I am not enamered with his penchant for tossing picks.  After a tought season, the Cuse gets an easy one at home.

Syracuse -10 over Akron

Game Two:       All that chalk in Tuscaloosa has my attention as I should have pulled the trigger on Carolina last week @ Alabama.  Not only are the Vols capable of beating the spread in this one, but could win SU IMO.  Saban's boys don't score many points so just a few talleys on offense by the Orange will get it done here.

Tennessee +14.5 @ Bama

Game Three:        I believe in the 7-0 ATS Vandals and this one will keep these WAC upstarts atop the heap in their division for another week.  These guys have made some good for me this season.

Idaho +15 @ Nevada

Game Four:     It's not pretty, but the Hawkeyes just keep getting the job done with a defense that spends the 2nd half of each contest completely shutting down opposing offenses.  Just as they have done all year, Iowa will prevail by the final whistle.

Iowa pk @ Michigan St.

Finally:      I'm taking the faux Tigers and their chalk against a suspect Bengal squad.  The LSU D will be tested and Jefferson probably won't be capable of answering for the LSU offense.

Auburn -8 @ LSU

 

Good luck fellas.

GL this weekend jmw.......I like the Tennessee pick, I think Auburn looks solid as well. I'm not sure what to think of Iowa, I definitely think they are the better team but I also think this isn't the best spot for them....I'm not playing it and have some very good friends on the coaching staff there so I hope you hit.

 

Hope it's a great weekend

Bama may win but they don't score 28 IMO
