So much for my new profession

I got totally smacked silly this weekend... my calls in blue, correct calls in green, incorrect calls in red.


1 for 4 after going 4 for 4 last week...

Tulsa 62 SMU 17 (Tulsa -25)
Tulsa 37 SMU 31

Texas 20 Oklahoma 30 (Oklahoma -7)
Texas 45 Oklahoma 35

New Mexico 13 BYU 44 (BYU -23.5)
New Mexico 3, BYU 21

San Jose St 36 Utah St 13 (SJSU -14.5)
SJSU 30 Utah St 7


Games I would love to put money on, but have no guts:
AND I WENT 3 OUT OF 7 FOR THIS... 

Toledo @ Michigan (Michigan -16)
Michigan has not done really well this season, but this is a home game against a lowly Toledo. I don't see the score being under a 30 point win. But then, it's Michigan....
Toledo 13 Michigan 10... should have known better to make this call. Thank God I knew better and didn't put money.


Washington St @ Oregon St (OSU -30)
WSU is the doormat of the Pac 10. I would pick against them 9 out of 10 times. This is the one time I won't do it. I am not sure if the Beavers can make the spread. But if I played, I would pick the Beavers.
WSU 13 OSU 66... Go Beavs. I didn't really mean that. But, they helped me save some face this weekend...


Idaho @ Fresno St (FSU -34)
Again, the spread. Idaho is the the WAC's version of Washington St. And by that, I meant.. doormat. Well, the WAC has 2 doormats Idaho and Utah St. I think Fresno is going to be able to cover the spread and run all over Idaho, but that's exactly what I thought would happen last week against Hawaii and guess what, Fresno lost. So, I would like to call Fresno in this one, but just have no guts to put mulah on it.
Idaho 32 Fresno St 45... 


Tennessee @ Georgia (Georgia -13)
I think the loss to Alabama last week was a good wake up call and at the same time, it has taken the pressure off of them. I think they rebound this week against a really not so good Tennessee team. Georgia by 2 touchdowns.
Tenn 14 Georgia 26... missed by 1? does that count as a win? sigh...


Purdue @ Ohio St (OSU -18.5)
I would take Purdue on this one. I think Ohio St is going to win but just not by a 18.5 point spread. Ohio St 34 Purdue 20.
Purdue 3 Ohio St 16


Arizona St @ USC (USC -28)
I am not comfortable with a 28 point spread. But then, it's USC and they had to score that one last touchdown against the Ducks last week. So, I would make the call ASU, but not with 100% confidence.
ASU 0 USC 27



New Mexico St @ Nevada (Nevada -19)
Nevada. Except... no guts.
NM St 48 Nevada 45
