Betting Lines 11-11

Last Week's results.

Ok, so I went 5-4 in the 9 games for a 55% average. Just need to stay above the better's mark of 53% to make money in this game.

However, Week 1 goes to Moore in the 3 person runoff. Moore won all 4 of his picks compared with 2 for Ferris and myself.

Here are the picks of the three contestants this week.

Louisville -6
Air Force +12.5

Analysis of some games

Louisville and Rutgers - You know my thoughts. If Louisville brings any sort of game then this is not close. Fowler and Herbstreit will say 'Rutgers will use this as a builiding block for the rest of this year and for years to come.' I want this game to be a rout in no uncertain terms. Take care of the ball Louisville. Throw interceptions Teel. 35-14 Cards.

Air Force - ND - I think Air Force will be able to move the ball. I think ND will be able to move the ball. This game could be the BCS for Notre Dame. Win this and a loss to USC may not matter. Air Force puts a scare into the Irish.

Wisconsin at Iowa Pick Em - The Badgers continue their roll to a one loss season. Iowa is playing for its season so its critical the Badgers come out strong in the early going.

Navy at E. Michigan - Looks like Navy is regaining their ground game after the QB injury. Navy covers

Nebraska at Texas A&M Pick Em - Huskers are a completely different team on the road. Aggies win and bounce back from the Oklahoma loss.

Tennessee at Arkansas - Mitch Mustain shows why he is a freshman. Vols ride defense to victory.

Georgia a 13 point dog at Auburn - Georgia is only Georgia in name. Auburn has to turn it over multiple times to not cover 13 to a team that has lost to Vandy and Kentucky.

Alabama a 17 point dog to LSU. - Alabama is always good to play tough D but lose anyways. I would really like to see Alabama rejoin the football elite. Something about that crimson.

Cal and Arizona - Arizona covers the 13 in the desert. California needs a dominating outing to put its name at the top of the one loss teams but they have been slow in doing it the past couple of weeks.

Iowa St and Colorado - find someone who cares

Oregon at USC - The Ducks are a 7 point dog. USC is back at home after a road loss a couple of weeks ago and Stanford. Not a good time to be a Duck. Trojans reassert their claim to the Pac 10 title. A Ducks win would be huge for that program but USC covers.
