A NOVEMBER TO REMEMBER

If you’ve been taking advantage of our winning picks, then this is a November to remember.

We went 7-1 last Saturday, following 7-1 and 6-2 performances. That puts us at 63% for the season. Not too shabby, don’t you think?

That’s some serious winning! And finishing strong!

This weekend is stocked full of traditional rivalry games that actually started on Thanksgiving Day with Mississippi State trouncing the hapless Rebels of Ole Miss. Some of these games have conference title and CFP ramifications as we head into the final two weekends of 2018. A lot can happen, and a lot of money can be yours.

Let’s get to it.

GREAT EIGHT™ for WEEK THIRTEEN

TENNESSEE @ VANDERBILT…the loser of this game is definitely a loser. The losing team fails to become bowl eligible and finishes as the bottom dweller of the SEC East. After playing competitively against Kentucky and Charlotte, the Vols laid a huge egg in their 50-17 loss to Missouri. The Orange defense failed to show while the offense struggled once again. Fortunately for the Vols, qb Jarrett Guarantano and wr Marquez Callaway have been cleared for the game. And that should be enough to beat Vandy. In an UPSET SPECIAL, Vols slam the ‘Dores.

#1 ALABAMA @ AUBURN…if you like college football (and who doesn’t) this game never disappoints. It’s the Iron Bowl. It’s intense, the fans get crazy, the coaches bring their best. Last season Auburn stunned the Tide with a 26-14 upset that sent them to the SECCG to face Georgia. We don’t see that happening again but the 24 point spread is too tempting to ignore. Take Aubbie and the points.

GEORGIA TECH @ #5 GEORGIA…good ole fashion hate is on display in this bitter rivalry. The Jackets have won the last two games in Athens, so anything can happen; especially with the Dawgs having only 6 days to prep for the triple option. If Tech’s qb TaQuon Marshall can connect on a few passes with the Bee defense coming up with a few stops, GT can keep this game close.  The line is very tasty and we’re biting. Take Tech and the points (17).

SOUTH CAROLINA @ CLEMSON….take a look at these facts. Clemson has only lost once at home in the past five seasons. The Gamecocks are 0-4 versus Top 25 this season. This doesn’t bode well for South Carolina as they face a Clemson team that has so many weapons on both sides of the balls. Look for Clemson rb Travis Etienne to have a big day. Tigers clip the Cocks.

#4 MICHIGAN @ #10 OHIO STATE…the winner of this game is the Big Ten East title winner, and if it’s Michigan, the Wolverines take a huge step closer to the CFP. There’s no question that Michigan has one of the best defenses in the country. But they also have qb Shea Patterson and the Buckeyes are struggling to stop big plays on defense. Circle the game as must-see TV. Wolverines chomp on the Nuts.

#18 WASHINGTON @ #8 WASHINGTON STATE…you need to call your sports book now since this game kicks at 8:30 tonight. It’s the Apple Cup that will decide the PAC-12 North title. This game can be decided by the play of Wazzou qb Gardner Minshew. He’s put up a nation-leading 4,325 passing yards at 70% completion rate, with 36 TDs and only 7 INTs. That’s the kind of performance that gets you an invite to NYC for the Heisman show. But the Huskies can answer with their own qb, Jake Browning, who is the PAC-12 winningest qb in conference history. Both teams have great running backs, UW Myles Gaskin and WSU James Williams, that can take the load off of their qbs. Mike Leach is a certifiable whackadoodle but he’s got things moving with his Cougars. Take Washington State over the Huskies.

#7 LSU @ #22 TEXAS A&M…if Coach O can get his Tigers to continue their powerful play from last week, then this will be a long afternoon for the Aggies. In last week’s 42-10 win over Rice, the Tigers limited the Owls to just 198 yards while ripping off 552 yards of offense. But that was Rice.  Both teams are banged up at key positions, but we think LSU has enough in its tank to make this eight in a row over the Aggies. Tigers bite the Aggies.

#11 FLORIDA @ FLORIDA STATE…both head coaches, Dan Mullen and Willie Taggart, are new to this intense rivalry. Florida wants to stop a five game skid to the Seminoles, while FSU needs a win to become bowl eligible and keep its streak of 36 bowl appearances going. Gator qb Franks is more than anxious to wipe out the memory from last year’s game in which he turned the ball over 4 times, including two that went for FSU scores.  While this match-up lacks high octane offenses, there will be enough to make it exciting. Take Florida. Gators chomp the ‘Noles.
