LSU -3 (betting with my pocket book)
Mississippi Pick em over Vandy
Auburn +4 over Clemson (Auburn wins by 10)
Ill gladly lose my *** in the first 2...
let it be known, when I post my picks over the years on SPS, I bat about .200.....so take it as if you need to go the other way just because I am typing this...

I couldn't pull the trigger on AU last week, but this week I had to take LSU at -3.5. As much as I would love for us to win, I can't imagine this game even stays close.
I also like Michigan State +4.5 at Notre Dame.

After a decent week in college football, I took a bath on Sunday. Really bad. Then I put everything on New England on Monday and got it all back.<div>
</div><div>My college football picks for this weekend. I didn't see as many obvious picks as the past two weeks. :</div><div>
</div><div>Florida -10 vs Tennessee (UF looks strong at home. Line has since gone down to UF-9.5)</div><div>
</div><div>Cincinnati -35 vs Akron (Cincy beat Austin Peay 72-10 at home week 1, and so far Akron has lost by 41-3 and 42-0)</div><div>
</div><div>Oklahoma State -14 at Tulsa (OK State is strong and just beat Arizona by 23, Tulsa got beat 47-14 at Oklahoma week 1. About a month ago, I was able to snag OKState -7 at Tulsa under college football futures)</div><div>
</div><div>Stanford -11.6 at Arizona (Stanford is just too good. After spotting Duke a 7-0 pick 6 in Durham, SU went on to win 44-14. As above, Arizona lost by 23 to OkState. I think the line is down to Stanford -10 now.)</div><div>
</div><div>Houston -8.5 at Louisiana Tech (UH has a high-powered offense and is 2-0 including a win over UCLA. LaTech barely lost to USM, but then just barely beat CENTRAL Arkansas in OT.)</div><div>
</div><div>Northwestern -8.5 at Army (missed seeing this one until I read it in this thread. Army is terrible, lost by 20+ to Northern Illinois, NW is 2-0 including at win at Boston College. Now NW -9.)</div><div>
</div><div>
</div><div>
</div><div>Mississippi -1 at Vandy (I hope I lose this one, but if OM wins by more than 1, at least I get some money out of it. I wouldn't be surprised to see Vandy win. Now OM -3)</div><div>
</div><div>Ohio State +2 at Miami, FL (Miami lost at Maryland, OSU is 2-0, with a close win vs Toledo last week. OSU gets some key players back. Miami gets Jacory Harris back, but still has others out. I'm less sure of this one than the others.) </div><div>

I like the Stanford pick, I've seen it as low as -9. I took them last week.
I also like the Houston pick. I've taken them for wins the last two weeks. I have seen it at -7 recently.
Be careful underestimating Northern Illinois in your Northwestern/Army analysis. Their name may not strike fear in anyone, but they are a strong team right now. They throw the **** out of the ball. That's why they beat the stew out of Army. They went to Kansas and lost by a FG last week in a high scoring game. Kansas was behind by 4 and threw a TD on 4th and goal from the 6 with 9 seconds left.

For all those betting -3.5 on LSU, if state should lose - we will go to overtime and lose by a fg.<div>
<div>Honestly, if i took LSU. That would happen.</div></div>

Coming off a highly emotional, physical game with an SEC opponent, then going on the road to play a non-SEC team with a revenge motive.
