Full disclosure I took it on the chin last week and went 1 & 2 but I'm still 6 and 3 for the season vs the spread. Things I learned last week:

1. NEVER bet on Nebraska
2. Stay away from Mike Leach games when he is at home

We have 4 games this week:

NC @ FSU +3 - This one is simple FSU is not a good football team and NC State has been very consistent this year with the only surprising loss to Miami who also beat Pitt this past Saturday. FSU got their heart taken from them last week by Clemson and honestly, at this point the only thing they are going to be focused on is Florida because that is all that can salvage their season. NC State has always played FSU tough so give up the points and take NC State.

Michigan State @ Purdue +3 - Plain and simple I believe in Sparty! As long as K9 is healthy they can play with anyone in the B1G and the coast by Purdue by at least 7. Give up the points and ride the Sparty bus.

Baylor @ TCU +6.5 - This line is a gift so load up as this is the Blue Plate/Mortgage the Farm/Blood bank withdrawal pick of the year! Baylor has been one of the most consistent in college football and that is what we look for (and why we will not bet on KY again this season) and TCU has been giving up points to everyone. Add in that everyone at TCU will be distracted and it all adds up to a big Baylor win. Give up the points and that Bears.

Oregon @ Washington +6.5 - Let's mince words, Washington is a BAD football team even for PAC standards and that is such a low bar it's incredible that they were able to reach it. If there was an award for the most mismanaged program in college football Jimmy Lake runs away with it. The Ducks cruise easily and more than cover so take the Ducks.

Consistency is the theme this week and that horse is going to ride you into riches. No need to thank me as I do this out of the goodness in my heart.

Get Rich Bitches!
 
@Red_Alert hasn’t been on this thread to criticize me yet and I’m getting worried. Does anyone have his address so we can call the cops to do a wellness check?

Please tell me that Iowa State is not favored again this week!?
 
Glad to see you’re alive buddy.

Spent 5 hours at Nebraska Furniture Mart picking out living and dining room furniture for my new place.
I bought 25 acres a few months ago and gutted the house all the way back to the studs. Finally finishing things up and ready to move in over the next couple of weeks.

Favored by 6.5

They must be assuming Texas will have a double digit lead at some point
Unbelievable!

Iowa State has now been favored in all 9 games this year and not by just a point. In the three losses, they were favored by - 5.5 over Iowa, -7 @ Baylor, - 7 @ West Virginia.

Not a gambler, but I would pound Texas + 6.5 if I was!
 
Nailor could be out this week with the hand injury. Just fyi. Do they need a passing game vs Purdue anyway? Probably not, Purdue - 54th ranked rushing defense.

Maybe Purdue got their upset of the year out of the way but they could knock off another one: Ohio St or Michigan St

I still like the Michigan St play, it's set up for an Ohio St one loss vs Michigan St undefeated game. Also, like the Oregon play.

Other games that are intriguing:
I never bet on my team but I like Ohio St -15.
Not touching A&M-Auburn bc I feel A&M is unpredictable and they are at home but I wouldn't be surprised if Auburn won.
Penn St -10 vs Maryland. Maryland is pretty bad. I expect Penn St to continue playing well.
Iowa -12 vs NW. If we learned anything from Iowa. They beat up on bad teams and you can't rely on them in the big matchups.
