32-18 (64%) overall. The Big TRIPLE PLAYS are an outstanding 11-5 (69%) on the season. Will be leaving here soon for a couple of weeks, so here are my plays for Saturday:
QUADRUPLE PLAY!!!!
*****Virginia -5' over Clemson. My strongest play this year. Seems like a lot of that going around, but this weekend is a deep card and Virginia stands out. QB Whitehurst is questionable, the UVA defense will dominate the Tigers offense. Schaub is back healthy now, 2 games under the belt, and will put up big numbers on a suspect Clemson defense. The UVA defense is the difference maker stoping the sputtering Clemson offense, dominating field positions and the turnover battle. UVA covers by 3 scores!!!!
Triple Plays:
****Kansas +6 to beat Colorado. Kansas should win this one by 10, and getting 6 is a great number here. Woulda been a Quadruple play, but I've seen nobody on Colorado which scares me. Colorado is also coming off a big time downer getting destroyed by Baylor, which could be a good thing if this team has quit. Col RB Purify is out, Colorado can't run or stop the run and Kansas and their offense will roll in this one, even at Colorado. They have new life, run the ball very effictively and Coach Mangino will have the Jayhawks ready, prepared, and with momentum coming off the bye week.
****Ohio State -2 over Wisconsin. What can I say, they just win! They have a great defense, they stop the run and forcing Wisc QB Jim Sorgi to throw will result in turnovers. Ohio States offense is not one that will tear it up. But they won't make the mistakes, will be in great field position all game with that great defense, and Krenzel and company should have a good day against a below average Wisc defense. Coach Tressel will have them ready and rested off the bye week. I don't like Ohio State, but ya gotta respect them. They win ball games and will win another one vs Wisconsin in comfortable fashion.
****Texas Tech -16' over Iowa State. Iowa State gives up points in BUNCHES. Texas Tech Scores points in BUNCHES. Texas Tech is at home, on the Fast Track and Iowa State won't be able to keep up. Iowa State is banged up at QB, RB, WR, OL and DL. In a shootout, you need all your weapons and all of them clicking. Iowa State gets whupped up on here.
****La Tech -15 over UTEP. Should be an easy winner as UTEP is perhaps one of the worst teams in college football. The won vs and even worse SMU squad, but lets not get confused here. La Tech is MUCH better and will score early and often against an all around poor UTEP squad. La Tech hung close all game to an excellent Boise St squad and will crush the Minors. UTEP a little, La Tech A LOT!!!
***************Other BIG GAME Plays:********************
***OU -6 over Texas. Great offense, Awesome defense, and Texas can't win the big games, and I'm not talking about K-State. This is the #1 team in the nation coming in on a Major roll!! Questions at Tex QB against this defense?!?! BAD NEWS.
**N.D. +9 over Pitt. I must be crazy
I watch too much "The Season" on ESPN cover ND or something. I think they'll be strong off a bye and Pitts offense may struggle vs what is a good ND Defense.
**UGA -2' Over Tennessee. Exposed a bit vs a good Auburn attack. Home crowd will keep it close, but UGA talent will overcome.
**FSU -7 Over Miami. Too much for the Banged up Canes.
**Ok State +3 over KSU Good game, wrong team favored at home.
**Nebraska -7 over Mizzou. Nebraska should run all over Mizzou, ala Kansas. Nebraska's Black Shirt Def takes care of QB B.Smith.
**Penn St. +13' over Purdue. Me think surprise?!? Penn State QB played well last week and The Key will be running and Stopping the run vs the Boilermakers. Purdue is good, just too many points and PSU can keep it close.
Left off teams I should go with but am passing like LSU over FLA, Navy over Vandy and Wyoming over Utah St. But can't spread myself to thin and pick them All!!
GL to all this weekend!!!!!!!
