All of my plays are in this post as I have only one college game this weekend. I had a very unlucky, and bad, weekend as I went 1-1 on my NFL plays when I romped with the Titans and was backdoored on my Texans play. I went 2-0 on opinions but they're not counted in my record.
I went 1-4 on college plays, winning w/SMU but losing four heartbreakers: South Carolina (leading straught up late in third), California (ditto), V-Tech (lost cover by only 2) and Boise (left zillions of points off the board). I hope to turn it around here altho my pro slate has a lot more action than college.
College:
1* San Diego State +8 1/2
I know this is an ugly pick but I just can't see Colorado State laying this many on the road. The last time SD played a really bad team at home (Idaho) they crushed them. I look for a straight up upset but get a lot of points if I'm wrong.
Opinions only:
Ball State
USC
Ohio State
NFL:
2* Ravens -7
I like this one a lot. Oakland was all out to pull off the home Ot win Sunday and now has to play the dreaded early east coast game. The Ravens played very well last week and have an excellent defense against an Oakland offense that is very bad. Oakland is still in disarray and is due for a letdown.
1* Steelers -2 1/2
Pittsburgh is the class of their division and play a Giants team that was only OK against the 49ers after looking awful at Cleveland. The Giants have Dallas and Philly next. The Steelers offense is scoring a surprising amount of points and thrashed Cincy without breaking much of a sweat.
1* 49ers -4 1/2
Who cares who plays QB for Seattle? The team is playing awful which is rather common with a lame duck coach. San Fran isn't that good either but may play inspired after the coaching change. While the Niners defense is really bad, Seattle isn't moving the ball at all and had only seven first downs last week. What a bad division the NFC West is.
Opinion only:
Lions (May upgrade this depending on line movement)
Cowboys (ditto)
