Lock
Oklahoma (-28) @ Baylor
Home field wont matter at all here as Sooner fans will take over Waco. Baker Mayfield is looking to stay in the Heisman race and the Sooners are looking to impress for the playoff committee, they'll run up the score in this one.

Love
Auburn (-18) @ Missouri
Missouri is letting up 442.7 yards per game, 102nd in the nation. Auburn seemed to struggle last week against Mercer after a valiant effort against Clemson the week prior. Auburn will bounce back and light up the scoreboard, Kamryn Pettway will go for 200+ yards.

 Iowa (+12.5) v. Penn State 
It will be an electric home crowd for the Hawkeyes. Iowa plays sound defense and can slow down Penn State's rushing attack. Nate Stanley has also been a pleasant surprise with 10 TDs and just 1 INT. Iowa will pound the rock with Akrum Wadley and keep this game close.

Like
Notre Dame (-3.5) @ Michigan State 
Notre Dame has looked pretty good this year with their only lose coming by 1 point to a good Georgia team. This is Michigan State's first true test of the year. Notre Dame by a touchdown.


Bama (-19.5) @ Vanderbilt 
I have been rolling with Vandy every week so fair this season, but this week i'm rolling with the tide. Kyle Shurmur has looked impressive to begin the season but will struggle against Alabama's secondary, I think Alabama scores 2 defensive touchdowns in this game and looks to make a statement on the road.

Michigan (-10.5) @ Purdue 
Since Don Brown has arrived at Michigan the Wolverines have surrendered an average of 9.63 ppg against spread offenses, if Wilton Speight can control the ball, Michigan will cover.

SMU (-5) v. Arkansas State 
This will be a high scoring game with both teams averaging more than 40 ppg. SMU will be looking to bounce back from last weeks game against TCU, with a big win at home.

Lock Texas A&M (-7.5) v. South Carolina  The Aggies have some momentum after their overtime win against Arkansas. This game is a lock, no analysis needed. Love Iowa ML @ Michigan State  Iowa bounces back from a heart-breaker last weekend with a solid win on the road. MSUs leading rusher is their QB, Brian Lewerke, and Iowa plays too sound of defense to let him beat them with his legs. Iowa by 10. Minnesota (-13.5) v. Maryland Maryland is currently on their 4th string QB, who struggled to complete a pass last week when coming in for an injured Kasim Hill. I see more of the same this week especially on the road. On top of that the Gophers seem to have found a rhythm on offense, scoring more than 30 points in their last two contests. Gophers in a blowout. Wisconsin (-15.5) v. Northwestern  Wisconsin has only let up 90.7 rush yards per game this season, meaning that the Badgers will neutralize Northwestern's only offensive threat, Justin Jackson. On the o...

Saturday Smorgasbord

Welcome to the weekly Saturday Smorgasbord, your weekly one stop shop for all things NCAAF, NFL, and MLB. I'll give 4-5 picks each week that I've studied and feel comfortable puting my mortgage on. So here it is...... NCAAF -UCLA(-2.5) This bruins team led by Josh Rosen is just too high powered and talented to not cover this tight spread. The Memphis defense is nothing to forget, but UCLA pulls away late. -Nebraska vs N. Illinois over 56 See Nebraska's defense. Make your money, thank me later. Next..... -Tennessee(+4) It's not that I love this Vols team, but rather a lack of confidence in anything Florida wants to do on Offense. I think it's a tough sledding SEC type game with potentially Florida winning by a FG, take the points. NFL -Atlanta(-2.5) Matt Ryan and Julio have a day picking apart this Green Bay defense. A close game, home field is big in this one with the Falcons being so good at home. MLB Cubs(ML) - Coming off an impressive win on ...
