Well, things were downright ugly last week for my picks (0-5), and the Terps' performance hasn't exactly improved my mood. However, there are some exciting games this weekend. Let's take a look.
TEXAS TECH (-3) over Oklahoma State - The Cowboys are 0-5 in Lubbock as members of the Big 12, and the Red Raiders are pretty sharp. You have to worry about a letdown after last week, but TT only has 5 plays to practice so what's to scheme? Besides, we can't have 2 straight years where #1 or #2 loses each of the last 6 or 8 weeks of the year, right?
The Mad Hatter has just been Mad lately. Defense? What defense?Alabama (-3) over LSU - I know the Tide hasn't looked sharp lately, but remember what they did on the road at Georgia in the first half. Add in that LSU gave up 50 points to Florida and Georgia, plus Saban's history and the fact that John Parker is always better on the road, you get a Tide victory.
Penn State (-7.5) over IOWA - Clark is back and the Hawkeyes won't be able to slow down the Spread-HD.
Virginia (+4) over WAKE FOREST - The Deacons' offense is not the same this year, and it has really struggled against the better teams in this league.
NC State (+3.5) over DUKE - The Wolfpack will find a way to get their 1st ACC win. They've been really close against better teams than Duke.
Kansas (+1.5) over NEBRASKA - The Jayhawks might not have defense, but did you see what Oklahoma did to the "Black Shirts" last week? Kansas has enough offense to win this.
Last Week: 0-5 (ouch)
Season: 33-26-2
