College Football Locks

I know nothing here but once again, looking at numbers and seeing how good certain teams have played and comparing to the lines that are out this week, be careful on A&M.

They looked like world beaters last week against Arkansas and SC has looked like doodie. This line should be more than 18.

They may blow them out, and by rights they should, but to me, they are inviting people to take A&M.

Don't change your bets based on my thoughts as I said, I know nothing. Just be careful when something looks to good to be true.

Mich St. 21 (Sparty, are you f'ing kidding me?)
Indy 24

Fla 13
Vandy 6

aTm 24
S. Caroliny 13
0 for 3. And THAT is why I don't bet college football games.

Man, there are a lot of games that I like this week.

Since the game is three picks, here's my three "locks":

Houston -28 Push

Nebraska -20.5


Florida State -10.5


Here's some other games that I like. Just posting them so I can see if I have any idea what I'm talking about.

Mississippi -14.5

Northwestern +13.5

Tennessee -3.5

Pitt -16 Push

Minnesota +3 Push


Rutgers +38.5

UCF +3.5


Washington State +1.5

Florida -10

Utah +1.5
0-2-1 on my "locks." Ouch. Apparently not a good week for us.

4-4-2 on the other games I liked.

6-5-1 for the year on my locks.

3 Locks for this week

TCU +3.5 (felt pretty strong about this too. Yikes)

Nebraska -21 (no words. I got nothing)

Miami -7

These are the others I like but will not count towards locks

Wisconsin +10.5 (EEEEEK! Who really knows what will happen, so I will take the points!) Pretty good game

Tennessee -3.5 (Not sure if Georgia is all together. Vols ready to break one open) SERIOUSLY... A 1/2 point loss??

Arizona St +10 (undefeated, a potent, pass happy offense, USC usually romps them at home, but will be 1-4 after this weekend. They have issues) Yep ASU got clobbered

Clemson +2 (Death Valley night game as underdog? Lamar Jackson is just one guy. Clemson is solid and QB isn't chop liver, - a Banker reference) Great game, pretty much even teams

Western Michigan -3.5 (rivalry week, playing really well) They are en fuego
I didn't like this week at all and it shows.

1-2 for the weekend locks. 5-4 on the year (+$60)

 
I didn't do any better fellas, 0-3 this week.

I didn't really like any of the games either but wasn't terribly uncomfortable with being forced to pick 3. Figured 1 or 2 would end up okay. Shows ya what I know.

9-6 overall, +$240

 
I don't see an obvious spread issue this week and this is not blaring but the only game I see that looks a little odd is the Washington game? Why only 8 1/2 to 9 after such convincing wins by Wash and disappointing losses for Oregon? Too good to be true?

Also, Okla State should cover 17 1/2 over ISU at Boone Pickens. Might be that after 1qtr.

Just guessing

 
Wk 6 Locks

WYO +10.5

Michigan -28

Houston -15.5

Others I like

LSU -3 cancelled

Texas +10.5

Miami -2.5

 
And these last couple weeks exhibit why gambling on a game is such a futile effort. I even really liked my 3 picks, unlike last week.

1-2 week 6, overall 10-8 for +$120

The juice is gettin to me now.
