MO' GAMES. MO' MONEY.
Real life is forcing us to audible to a briefer WWW than
normal. We were caught up in
mid-term election odds making and are happy to report that we made a few bucks
on various elections around this great nation of ours! Yeehaw. ‘MERICA!
Anyways, we did well last weekend, going 6-2 overall with a
big UPSET
SPECIAL of West Virginia over Texas.
We took the 38.5 points and Louisville thinking that would
be more than ample to pick up easy cash. But Petrino’s pathetic Cards folded to
Clemson, 77-16. Bad on them, not good for us.
We also thought the Cats could upset Georgia but the Dawgs
came to play and left with a huge W.
And the air finally left the LSU bubble as they were shut
out 29-0 by the Tide.
The
GREAT EIGHT for WEEK ELEVEN™
#10
OHIO STATE @ #18 MICHIGAN STATE…the Buckeyes squeaked out a 36-31
win over the struggling Huskers last week in a game that was a lot closer than
expected. Can the Spartans surprise Ohio State in Lansing? We think not. Urban
Meyer will have his guys ready after a tough week of practice. Buckeyes win.
SOUTH
CAROLINA @ #15 FLORIDA…the Gators got bad news mid-week when their starting
qb went down with a “non-contact” foot injury. Try explaining that to the media
corps. This could make for an interesting game but we don’t think Muschamp can
out coach Mullen in this matchup. Gators growl in Gainesville.
WISCONSIN
@ #20 PENN STATE…the Wolverines exposed Penn State 42-7 last Saturday
so it will be interesting to see if James Franklin’s Nittany Lions can rebound
with a win over the Badgers who must win in order to remain in the Big Ten West
title race with Northwestern. The big weapon for Wisconsin is rb Jonathan
Taylor, the top runner in the Big Ten. He could be the difference maker given
that both qbs are hurting. In an UPSET SPECIAL, Badgers in a big win over Penn State.
RHODE
ISLAND @ JAMES MADISON…the Dukes (6-3) are not having their usual stellar
season, having lost a tough game last Saturday to New Hampshire, 35-24,
complete with six turnovers. They seem to have lost their edge with a
struggling offense and an o-line that can’t protect the quarterback. JMU needs
a win badly to stay in the FCS playoff hunt. Can they rebound on the road? We
think they can. Happy bus ride back to Harrisonburg. Dukes win.
OKLAHOMA
STATE @ #6 OKLAHOMA…this is the big bad Badlam game between two schools
that absolutely hate each other. Neither team plays great defense on a
consistent basis so this could be another shootout bonanza like last year’s
Sooner win, 62-52. The only
exception is that the Cowpokes lead the nation with qb sacks with 33. Will that
be enough to win. Don’t think so. Sooners win in Norman.
#16
MISSISSIPPI STATE @ #1 ALABAMA…here’s the deal. The crew from
Starkvegas has played some good ball this season, and they have hopes of
slowing down the Bama barrage in Tuscaloosa. QB Tua may be a bit banged up but
that’s no big deal given that they have Jalen Hurts as backup. Bottomline,
Missy State can’t touch Bama, who’s favored by 24 points. Tide rolls.
#24
AUBURN @ #5 GEORGIA…whatever the Georgia offensive line had for
breakfast last week they should be eating the same thing every Saturday. The
pups piled up over 330 yards rushing against a Kentucky defense ranked 15th
against the rush. Get this…255 of those yards came before first contact. That’s
dominance. An Auburn loss drop them to 6-4 and Malzhan squarely on the hot
seat. Ring the Chapel Bell. Dawgs bite the tiggers in Athens.
#2
CLEMSON @ #17 BOSTON COLLEGE….this game features two of the
best running backs in the ACC, Clemson’s Travis Etienne and BC’s AJ Dillon, who
is a bit banged up coming into this weekend. The Tigers are on their way to
winning another ACC title and BC should not not be a factor. Too many weapons
for Clemson. Tigers
take down the Eagles.
