This week had much better results...

(My calls in Blue, correct calls in Green and incorrect calls in Red.)



Games I would (and probably have) put money on (my picks in GREEN):

Yippee! Went 4 for 5!! I'm back...

Purdue 17 Northwestern 24 (NWestern -4)
Purdue 26 Northwestern 48

Indiana 20 Illinois 42 (Illinois -15.5)
Indiana 13 Illinois 55

Idaho 17 Louisiana Tech 45 (LA Tech -20.5)
Idaho 14 LA Tech 46

Arkansas 13 Kentucky 27 (Kentucky -7.5)
Arkansas 20 Kentucky 21

Oregon St 42 Washington 16 (OR St -16)
Oregon St 34 Washington 13



Games I would love to put money on, but have no guts:

And I went 2 for 6 on these calls. That's why I wouldn't put money on them...

UConn @ Rutgers (UConn -1.5)
Rutgers is not the Rutgers it has been the last 2 years. UConn is not that good either but will pull a win off.
UConn 10 Rutgers 12

Utah St @ Nevada (Nevada -22.5)
See last week's take on Utah St. In fact, see last week's take on Nevada too. Nevada should walk all over Utah St... everyone does. But Nevada is Nevada and when they were supposed to walk all over NM St, they not only did not, they lost!!
Utah St 17 Nevada 44

USC @ Washington St (USC -42.5)
Yes, Wazzu is the Pac 10 doormat, but, surely Pete Carroll has some kindness in him and won't run up the score on this Wazzu team that has been depleted by injuries???
USC 69 WSU 0 (OMG!! Pete, Pete, Pete, how could you?)

Texas Tech @ Texas A&M (TT -21)
Texas Tech is a good team. I'm just not certain they can cover the spread. They have the ability to, I don't know if they will.
TT 43 T A&M 25

Wisconsin @ Iowa (Iowa -3.5)
This seems like a no-brainer wager. However, the odd-makers probably know something we don't.
Wisconsin 16 Iowa 38

Michigan @ Penn St (Penn St -24.5)
Yes, Penn St is that good. And yes, Michigan is that bad. They lost to Toledo last week. Lost to who? Yes, Toledo. RR, in his first year, is rebuilding. But, they are really that bad.
Michigan 17 Penn St 46
