I kind of wanted to get the Texas-Texas A&M game in, but it's Thanksgiving. Oh well. I hope everyone's Thanksgiving is excellent and Rivalry Day is too, unless you're a Gamecock. Then I hope you spend all day Saturday wallowing in misery.
Friday Games
Bama (-10) @ Auburn - The Iron Bowl
This is supposed to be the demolition of an inferior opponent by one of the best teams in the country. I was high on Bama early, but I'm kind of coming down on all of the SEC in general, mostly because they all are beating each other and refuse to play anyone else. The Tide will probably win, but I'll bet it's close. Tigers cover.
Pitt @ WVU (even) - The Backyard Brawl
The team with the most to gain always loses this game. And it's in Morgantown, I'll take the Mountaineers.
Nevada @ Boise State (-14)
This one is in here because it's interesting, but not really a rivalry. I'm going to go out on a limb with this one and say Nevada pulls the upset. I want to watch this game, but it might be past my bed time.
Saturday Games
UNC (-6) @ NCSU
North Carolina. By a lot more than this. Poor Wolfpack. It'd be a shame to waste Russell Wilson.
FSU @ UF (-24.5) - Battle for the Governor's Cup
Have the Gators covered the spread in a game yet? They are a much better team than the Seminoles, but FSU will score their points. 'Noles cover.
VT (-16) @ UVa - Commonwealth Challenge
Virginia is a terrible football team. Hokies win and cover.
Miami (-6.5) @ USF
Not technically a rivalry, but I guess it could be. Only one of these schools is actually in South Florida, and oddly enough, it's not the Bulls. Miami should win easily, but we thought the same thing about FSU. I still think the Canes will control this game, but will be something like 23-10 game.
Oklahoma St @ Oklahoma (-8) - Bedlam
This is really interesting, because OkSU is ranked like 11 and OU is not at all, yet favored by more than a TD. That's weird. I'd like to see the Cowboys out of the BCS talk, but I don't think that happens. OKSU wins.
Arkansas @ LSU (-3.5) - The Battle for the Golden Boot
I have no real explanation, but Arkansas just tends to upset LSU, and I don't think LSU is that good. Ryan Mallett drops the hammer on the Tigers. (See what I did there.)
Georgia @ Georgia Tech (-8) - Clean, Old Fashioned Hate
This is the best named rivalry there is. But this time, Tech is on top and will rub the Uga's face in his own poo on Saturday. Jackets by 10.
Clemson (-3) @ South Carolina - Battle for the Palmetto State
Clemson. By like two touchdowns. We lead the conference in sacks, are #2 in the country in INTs, and their QB turns into a hollowed out shell after his first pick and they have no running game to speak of. This is not bode well for them.

Friday Games
ReplyDeleteBama (-10) @ Auburn - The Iron Bowl
Bama blows out Auburn. By fiddy.
Pitt @ WVU (even) - The Backyard Brawl
Pitt wins.
Nevada @ Boise State (-14)
Boise State wins, and wins big. They cover.
Saturday Games
UNC (-6) @ NCSU
UNC wins, covers.
FSU @ UF (-24.5) - Battle for the Governor's Cup
The Florida State University upsets the Gators. EJ Manuel throws all over the UF defense, spoiling Tim Tebow's senior day. All the fans have eye black streaming down their faces as their hero crumbles before them. FSU takes UF out of the title game and sparks an amazing turnaround in Tallahassee.
VT (-16) @ UVa - Commonwealth Challenge
VaTech wins and covers.
Miami (-6.5) @ USF
USF is in Tampa. Tampa is in South Florida. USF wins wins wins.
Oklahoma St @ Oklahoma (-8) - Bedlam
Oklahoma wins and covers.
Arkansas @ LSU (-3.5) - The Battle for the Golden Boot
I like LSU in this one. Les Miles is retarded, should have won the Ole Miss game. They come back in a big way.
Georgia @ Georgia Tech (-8) - Clean, Old Fashioned Hate
I can't say UGA wins this. Ga Tech wins and covers.
Clemson (-3) @ South Carolina - Battle for the Palmetto State
USC upsets Clemson. The SEC is a better conference.
I don't have too much time, so this will be quick.
ReplyDeleteAL over Auburn in a close one.
NC State over UNC.
FSU saves its season and shuts people up for Bobby's last year next year and wins.
VTech all the way against the Cavs.
USF upsets Miami.
OSU blows past a Bradford-less Oklahoma.
LSU comes back and takes down Arkansas.
GTech absolutely annihilates UGA.
Clemson over USC.
Geez the ACC sucks. I just KNEW it, when Clemson clinched, that we were gonna lose both those games.
ReplyDeleteAh well, at least this will kill the ridiculous Spiller-for-Heisman drive.
Results
ReplyDeleteMe: 5/11, 6/11 ATS (87/145, 74/145 ATS)
SHatter: 6/11, 3/11 ATS (77/134, 56/134 ATS)
Jackal87: 4/11 (42/78)
VTFerguson: Oddly bitter in his non-pick comments. The Spiller for Heisman campaign was largely over last week against Virginia, but before that was hardly ridiculous -- he is one of 5 players to have more that 7,000 APY. Nobody's happy about the losses, but it's not like VT has any better record in the ACC or SEC than Clemson does.
