Here are my bowl picks, against the spread:
Oregon State (-2.5) vs. BYU–I think the Rodgers brothers are too much for the Cougars to handle and the Beavers cover.
Oregon State 34, BYU 24
Utah (+3) vs. Cal–I think the Utes are going to be too physical for Cal and will pull the mild upset.
Utah 27, Cal 23
Nevada [...]

Texas (-21) at Texas A&M–The Longhorns are [...]

You would think that going 2-8 last week against the spread would dissuade me from making further picks. But no, I am a masochist and, despite a 41-58-1 record on the year, I will try again. As usual, proceed with caution!
(First team is my pick)
Cincinnati (-9.5) vs. West Virginia
Ohio State (-16.5) vs. Iowa
UCLA (-17) at Washington State
Stanford [...]

Went 5-5 last week and am now an atrocious 35-44-1 on the year against the spread. Here are my picks against the line for this week. Take with a grain of salt!
Mississippi at Auburn (48.5 OVER)–Jevan Snead is finally starting to get going, so I think the Rebels will score well here and with Auburn [...]

Had another rotten week against the spread last week, going 3-7, which puts me at 30-39-1 on the year. As usual, these are the games in which I see some sort of play and, also as usual, take my advice at your own risk!
Miami (-4.5) vs. Clemson–The Tigers are coming off a nice win, but [...]

Here’s my weekly group of games I see as good plays against the spread. Last week I went 5-5 to run my season record to just 27-32-1. Take my advice at your own risk!
On the run today, so no time to blurb each game. My pick against the line is the first team mentioned.
Oklahoma (+3) [...]

Note: I only pick the games where I see a potential play. Take my advice at your own risk!
Idaho (+3.5) at San Jose State–The Vandals are [...]

Ugh, another abysmal week last week picking against the spread. I went just 3-7 and am now 16-23-1 on the year versus the line.
On a positive note, I feel really good about this week’s lines and think I can make up some ground. These are the games I think are the best picks of the [...]

A promising 4-0 start last week turned into 4-5-1 and I now sit at 13-16-1 on the year picking against the spread. So take my picks at your own risk (remember I only pick the games where I see a potential play)!
Minnesota (-1) at Northwestern–Minnesota builds off a strong showing against Cal to take care of [...]
