The Seven.

WHO BARELY DIDN’T MAKE IT:

CU/CSU:  I live here with no allegiance.  No pick.

Nebraska/ Miami:  Fun, old school matchup, but not touching it.

Cal/ Texas:  Love the spread and think Cal will beat them by 14, but there WILL be a statement game for Texas.

South Carolina/ Georgia:  We all know I love Georgia, but this is a HUGE 16.5 spread.  Can’t touch it.

 

THE STRONG SEVEN (going to name it something with fishing once I have some time):

Georgia Tech minus 2.5 at Notre Dame: GTech continues the rumbles about being a possible playoff contender, and Notre Dame is beat up anyway.

Auburn plus 6.5 at LSU: Trust me.  Auburn has LOOKED bad, but they are good.  LSU is good too, but this will be a field goal game.

Penn State minus 9 at home vs. Rutgers: Penn State is MUCH better than you think, the QB WILL play like the #1 recruit he was at SOME point, and Rutgers is not exactly trying to win anything for a noble purpose.

Stanford plus 9 at USC:  Love USC, but Stanford will play them close.  Too good of team.

Temple minus 13.5 at UMASS: They are for real, people.  New culture, new players, and they have it going on.  UMASS is…UMASS.

Bama minus 7 at home vs. Ole Miss:  Sorry, Ole Miss.  Bama is going to regulate this by two touchdowns.  When Bama loses, it will be on the road.

BYU plus 16.5 at UCLA:  Am I getting sucked in the QB/ amazing play story?  Maybe.  But 16.5 is still a lot of points against a decent team.

Do with the knowledge what you want.  Enjoy your Friday night.  I will most likely talk with you Sunday.  Peace.
