CFB – Week 9 – POTW

2 shake down Saturdays in a row, I don’t think the bank accounts can afford a third straight week.  Ranked teams are falling by the minute and the cream is starting to rise to the top.  Let’s right the ship in week 9.

For those of you asking about the games before the weekend.  I wouldn’t touch any of them BUT if I were to bet, I’d take Kentucky +10.5.  Kentucky has played a BRUTAL schedule and their defense doesn’t get enough credit. Maybe I’m crazy because everyone seems to be laying the wood on MS St.  We’ll see.  BYU all the way Southwick out and the team banged up, should be easy.

Morning Games

9:00AM – Ball St. -10.5 vs. Akron.  Ball So Hard University just keeps on rolling.  Akron just can’t score enough to keep up.  Wenning continues to impress.  Had the Zips had QB Hirschman this might be a close one but Wenning against Pohl…fuggetaboutit.  Should be another Western Michigan type game.  45-17 final score.

9:30AM – GT -10 vs. VA.  Vad Lee is no Tevin Washington.  But Virginia…well Virginia is just Virginia.  Pathetic.  The offense just BLOWS, QB play is huge here.  GT took a dump all over Duke.  Duke took a dump all over VA last week.  So if A is better than B, and B is better than C, then that mean A will SHAT all over C right?  You get the point.  2 TD’s easily.

Afternoon Games

12:30PM – Northern IL -17 or -18 FirstHalf vs. EMU.  I realize I maybe taking a risk here BUT given the situation it’s a good one.  For those of you that don’t like taking halves, stay away LOL.  EMU is abysmal.  Last year NIU smacked em around 49-7 in a game where Jordan Lynch threw 1 TD.  Hard to see this NOT happening again with NIU at home this time.  Lock it up 31-7 First half, they’ll be covering by 1st quarter.

12:30PM – Clemson -14 vs. MD.  Never knew your season can go to shit and your QB can turn into garbage in the last 3 weeks until I saw the Terrapins.  Clemson and Boyd will look to kill here and kill every single team that comes in their way to try and make a BCS game.  After what happened last week, Clemson will unleash hell early and often.  Same result as last year.  45-10.

12:30PM – Alabama -28 vs. Tennessee.  Man TN as looked good this year AT HOME.  Bama has won the last 3 meetings between these teams by 31.  Shall we make that 4 years in a row.  Bama is just too stingy and even through the bad weeks Bama has been my horse.  So out of loyalty and because they are who we thought they were, they make this list until they don’t.  Someone play the commercial…ROLL TIDE!

Evening Games

7:30PM – Fresno St. -8 vs. SDSU.  SDSU is no longer SDSPOO but Derek Carr is just that dude in the Mountain West.  23 TD’s to just 4 INT’s, insane numbers.  Could be a shoot out or it could just be a sloppy one sided victory, in any case the result is the same as last year but a much improved Derek Carr.

 

That’s all folks, lock em up and let’s make some $$$ back.
