Arkansas +3....Believe me when I say this was a circled game when the schedule came out for the Hogs who have lost 4 straight and been dominated by my beloved Tigers. The one problem here is that long time loyal Tiger former HC and former defensive coach Barry Odom who is responsible for the 4 game winning streak in this series is the now defensive coordinator for Arkansas! Though he was an average head coach many thought he deserved another season. This game opened as Mizzou -1 and quickly went to -3 and starting to see some -2.5 now. Arkansas has fallen back a bit last few weeks but believe me when I say Mizzou will have it’s hands full after coming off their best performance of the year 41-0 over Vanderbilt. I don’t expect Mizzou to win this game and expect them to be behind from jump and it will come down to Odom defense to stop Drinkwitz offense. Odom gets his payback here!

BYU -11.....BYU has been waiting for this opportunity to get their much deserved respect as a top team. Coastal has had a storybook season but this is a major step up in competition as I see zero value in Power 5 win over Kansas. This is also a huge showcase for Wilson to stake his claim as second pick in NFL draft as starting see mocks where he is ahead of Fields. This is BYU early and often.

Auburn +5.5... Auburn rarely plays back to back clunkers. Last game out laid an egg vs Bama who is a different animal. Malzahn knows the expectation and after getting ass raped last week in Tuscaloosa will have his team ready here. Another poor performance here and the alumni may be ready to put his head on a chopping block. Auburn is 4-0 at home this year and play much better when in War Eagle Stadium. Not 100% sure they win outright but will keep it under the number.

Oklahoma -12 FH/Oklahoma -23...Quietly Oklahoma is back to being Oklahoma playing as well as anybody in the country. Coach Bob Stoops was temporarily added to help coach this week due to Covid within coaching staff and results will once again show vs Sooners annual punching bag Baylor who is lifetime 3-18 vs Boomer Sooner. Rattler has really began to blossom and the win will once again land Boomer Sooners backin Big 12 title game.

Alabama -29....Wow seems like that Bama gets payback for 2019 in back to back games. First Auburn and now LSU. It’s very obvious now that Brady not Oregon was the brains in that NC last year and with the continuing opt outs of players right before Bama suggests wide exodus before the slaughtering of the lambs down on the bayou.
Alabama 54. LSU 20
#6
Arizona +7.5....This May be the stink bomb special of the week. Undefeated su and ats Colorado visits 0-3 Arizona. This game opened -2 Colorado before ballooning to 7.5 which smells all in its own. Colorado has been flat out dominated by Zona having lost 8 of last 10 games including a su 35-30 loss at home last year. Zona does not encourage anything after debacle at UCLA last week but has definitely played a much harder schedule to date than Colorado and really hasn’t been score wise that bad. Sumlin knows his job may be on line and needs win to stay afloat. He gets it here in an upset.

West Virginia +7...Explain this time me like I am a 4 year old. How is it that an Iowa State team having its best season since like 1920 when they last won a conference championship (totally serious), needs win to clinch berth in title game unless Oklahoma St loses, has dominated WV last 2 years winning by 24 and 16, open as only -8 and is now 6.5/7 in most places? Simple to me . This will not be as easy as it looks as a team trying to break through often finds out when vying to go to championship games. WV is 5-3 on season, though losses on road , but coming in wanting double revenge. This game reminds me of one of my biggest losses with Rams vs Bucs in 1999 title game with greatest show on Turf vs spread. Rams won but by a whisker and ugly. See the same happening here.
Iowa State 19. West Virginia 16
#8
Memphis/Tulane over 63....Both teams score often and both defenses give up yards by the dump truck. The fact Memphis only scoring 10 points lw means they are itching to make up for horrible offensive showing.
Guess is I expect 72+ points minimum in this game.
#9
Penn State -11....Can’t believe I am going to lay the wood here but I am. Very highly public dog here with over 75/80% money on Rutgers. Vegas has not been leaving many of these lopsided games on the table lately. Very big game in reality for recruiting for Franklin and Penn St here. Schiano is an excellent recruiter and more or less that is why this is such an enormous game for these 2 schools in the northeast. It won’t be pretty but expect Penn St to do enough to cover here.

Baylor +2.5 and ML....No this is not a football game but #1 vs #2 in college hoops today as Gonzaga comes calling. Should be the best regular season game this year in regards to hype but to me this is simple. This is the NC game that Baylor missed out on last season with Covid. They are too long and physical in the end for Gonzaga as entire team looks the part of an NBA team physically. Defense will be the reason Baylor prevails but this will be a high octane scoring game in between with added bonus take the over.
Baylor 90 Gonzaga 84
Best of luck and just thought I would share today.
