Boston College (+3) vs. Virginia Tech
Two pretty evenly matched teams, so I’ll the underdog at home on Friday night.
Ole Miss (-9.5) vs. Liberty
Give me the Rebels at home winning by at least ten. Liberty is a solid squad, but they aren’t as good as they were last season, and the Rebs shouldn’t be sleeping on them at all.
Rutgers (+14) vs. Wisconsin
Let down spot here for the Badgers after a big win over Iowa. I also find it hard to bet them to win any game by 13 points, considering how poor their offense is.
Alabama (-17.5 1H, -28.5) vs. LSU
As a man from LSU, this is tough to say, but I’m taking this both ways without hesitation. Coach O has completely lost this team and this is his last trip to Tuscaloosa. Remember what O said after they beat Bama the last time they came and won in T-town. It went something along the lines of, “Roll Tide, what? F-you.” Saban hasn’t forgotten, and he will not lets his players either.
Iowas State (-6.5) vs. Texas
No problem laying the points with the Cyclones against a Texas team that still isn’t back.

Air Force (-2.5) vs Army
It was looking like a great year for Army, but now they’re on a three game losing streak. Air Force is good and one of the better teams Army will play. Air Force should’ve won last weekend; it would’ve been five in a row for them. I like the Falcons a lot here.
Purdue (+3) vs Michigan State
One of my favorites this weekend. Everyone thinks Michigan State is hot stuff now, but in reality, they benefited from two huge replay reviews in their game against Michigan that should’ve gone Michigan’s way. Anyways, this is a trap. The public is all over Michigan State, and Purdue punches you in the mouth. Purdue wins this game outright.
Rutgers (+14) vs Wisconsin
Public is all over the Badgers; the experts are on Rutgers. It’s an easy one for me. Not to mention, are we sure Wisconsin can even score 14 points? I’m rooting for the State University of New Jersey in this one.
Missouri (under 10.5 pts) at Georgia
Let’s review these: 7, 13, 10, 0, 0. That’s how many points Georgia has given up in their last five games. Missouri’s starting quarterback is questionable to play this weekend, which means we might get a backup under center for Nakobe Dean to destroy.
Washington (+7) vs Oregon
Another trap. My hottest take of the weekend is that I think Washington beats Oregon. The under has hit in seven of Washington’s eight games, which means they keep things low scoring and close. You can’t find one person on the planet betting Washington in this spot. When over 90% of public bets are on Oregon, mark me down for the other way.

Michigan State at Purdue (+3.5)
The Spartans are coming off an emotional win over the Michigan Wolverines, and even though I believe in Mel Tucker (LSU’s next head coach), the public is all over Michigan State so I’ll go with the Boilermakers.
Alabama (1H -17.5) vs. LSU
LSU will be limping into Tuscaloosa this weekend, and the Tide are battling for a playoff spot; expect Saban to run Orgeron out of town in what will likely be the final matchup between the two. The Tigers offense is predictable and their defense is missing several starters; this one won’t be close.
Auburn (+4.5) at Texas A&M
I think this line should be closer to a pick ’em. Auburn isn’t going to upset the Tide when they play in a couple of weeks, but they could beat the Aggies outright.
