Nice. One more correct game overall and you'd be profiting... if gambling were legal.

I blame the Gophs...

Right...legal

Here are my 5 games for next week...no lines yet published yet.

#5 West Virginia at #18 South Florida
#21 Penn State at Illinois
#8 Ohio State at Minnesota
#6 California at #11 Oregon
Michigan State at #9 Wisconsin

For my own personal pain:
Notre Dame at Purdue (haven't decided if I'm picking on this one yet)

Any others??

I might add #22 Alabama at Florida State later on...

Sounds good. I'll pick those 11 this week unless there are other requests...

I wonder what the line will be on Duke/Miami...I might actually consider Duke if the spreads large enough and they're in Durham. We'll see...

I know! I think Miami's outburst last week was an aberration.

5 West Virginia at 18 USF (+7)

I am suuuuper excited about the Bulls and glad they're doing well this year. This is an amazing story about a team coming out of nowhere and making a splash...however, lets not get carried away. USF beat Elon, North Carolina and a unusually weak Auburn team (by 3 in OT) so far this year. The Bulls are talented, but I think everyone is giving them more credit than they deserve. USF has some good players, but they don't have 3 years of top tier recruits like the ones that will be on the visiting sideline tonight. I like West Virginia to win and cover in this one...

More to come...

Great analysis... I like WV as well.

Re:College Football Pick 'em! 1 Year, 1 Month ago Howls: 17  
Went 5-6 for the week...

WVU at USF(+7) LOST
USF 21 WVU 13
Good for USF!! Although USF brings back bad "pole swinging" memories for me

NC at Va Tech (-18.5) LOST
VT 17 NC 10
I should've known! Va Tech can barely score 18 points much less beat a team by that amount..

Penn State at Illinois (+3) LOST
Illinois 27 PSU 20
Didn't see this one coming. Ron Zook has always done a great job of recruiting but I thought PSU would be able to win by 3...

Duke at Miami (-24) WON
Miami 24 Duke 14
Should've use my logic for this game on VT, didn't think Miami could post 24 more points than Duke.

AFA at Navy (-2.5) WON
Navy 31 AFA 20
Playing for the Commander in Chief trophy, I figure Navy would bounce back after a poor showing against Duke. Although Duke didn't lose to Miami by that much...

California at Oregon (-6) LOST
California 31 Oregon 24
For those of you who didn't see the highlights, Oregon was down by 7 with 22 seconds left in the 4th. Oregon was inside the Bears 10,tThe QB hit his WR on an out route and as the WR was crossing the goalline he fumbled out of the back of the end zone. ARRRRGGGGHHHH!! Spread was too large for a #6 vs #11, I should've picked Cal anyway because of the multiple years of top flight recruits (logic which screwed me in WVU vs USF)

Alabama at Florida State (-3) LOST
FSU 21 BAMA 14
It wasn't so much that I put my faith in Alabama, I just didn't think FSU was any good.

Auburn at Florida (-17.5) WON
Auburn 20 Florida 17
I knew Auburn was better than their record...I didn't anticipate the Tigers to pull of the win especially in the Swamp, all I need was a loss by less than 18 points.

Ohio State at Minnesota(+24) WON
OSU 30 Minnesota 7
Same logic here, I just need the Gophs to lose by less than 24 points...which they barely accomplished!! OSU is #4 in the new polls.

Michigan State at Wisc (-7.5) WON
Wisconsin 37 MSU 34
As I said last week, Wisconsin does not deserve to be in the Top 10. AP poll now has them at #5 after this close win over MSU.

Notre Dame at Purdue (-21.5) LOST
Purdue 33 Notre Dame 19
First week ND covered the spread...

I liked the recaps... good stuff!

Man, a few of those games could have easily went the other way spreadwise and your record would be looking pretty good... (ND, Oregon, etc.)

P.S. I'm still amazed ND covered. And that Oregon finish was nuts! I can't believe that WR... wow, sucks for him!
