My Picks for 9/16/06

Shit, I almost forgot to post my picks! I'll make this quick in case you are waiting to place 11:00 bets.

1* Oklahoma +5 Over Oregon - Oklahoma just has too much defense in this game, and wins it outright.
2* SDSU +14 Over Wisconsin - SDSU is a team I've bet a lot the last 2 years - and they've really come through. They should be able to go on the road and keep it close, against an overrated Wisonsin team.
3* Tennessee +3` Over Florida - Wow, 3 home games this season and Tennessee has been an underdog in 2 of them. I love Leak as a QB, but I like Ainge even more. And the Tennessee D line should beat the unexperienced Florida line, and with home field I'll take the dog to win it.
4* Arkansas -6 Over Vandy - Arkansas showed they have a solid defense last week, pitching a shutout. Vandy is way overvalued because of going into Alabama and almost winning last week, and hanging with Michigan the week before. Arkansas is the far superior team, and wins this one by 3 TD's.
5* Illinois -3` Over Syracuse - Syracuse is as overvalued as it gets, almost beating Iowa last week, though Iowa was without it's starting QB. Illinois went down 14-0 halfway through the Rutgers last week - but Rutgers had -2 yards and 14 points! Illinois never recovered from a defensive and special teams TD by Rutgers. Thus, we are getting amazing value in this game. In fact, 2 weeks ago this line is probably 13, so jump on Illinois.

Later today I'll post my pick on the big Husker game. Go HUSKERS!
