I almost forgot
And I did forget last week. The weekly college football picks so many depend on to pay rent, fund their IRAs and send money to their parents back home in Albania took a week off. I hope no one is outdoors because of it. After going 3-0-1 (Nice push, Georgia. You couldn't cover 7 against a poor Florida team with a lame duck coach?) two weeks ago, we now stand at 21-12-1, a true mandate from the football gambling oddsmakers.
This week:
- Texas Tech +2.5 at Texas A & M - A & M wasted a golden opportunity last week and will be flat on Saturday. They might be behind 21 points before they even realize it.
- Notre Dame -11.5 vs. Pittsburgh - I'm going to regret this but Pittsburgh truly sucks given Nebraska has 1 road win this season, at Pittsburgh.
- Texas -22 at Kansas - With the renewed emphasis on running up the score among the teams jockeying for BCS positions, the Longhorns won't hold back.
- Wyoming +23 vs. Utah - This goes against the advice immediately above, but it's tough to win in Laramie let alone run up a big margin of victory.
I'll probably be saying a few things about college hoops soon, but if you've got the bug, March Madness is only 4 1/2 months away and Yoni Cohen at THE college basketball blog has been posting great stuff multiple times each day.
