NCAA Week Three Picks

Week two was relatively quiet which was to be expected, but we did get one incredible high profile game in TCU-Arkansas. The SEC continued to disappoint as Georgia beat Nichols by a mere two points as a 55.5 point favorite. I went 11-2 picking Big Ten games and 2-1 outside the Big Ten, putting me at 23-4 outside the Big Ten and 4-2 in the Big Ten so far. There are some amazing games on tap this weekend, as the top three teams in the country all play a ranked opponent on the road for the first time in the same week in more than twenty years.

New Mexico @ Rutgers: Pick: New Mexico
Temple @ Penn St: Pick: Penn St
North Dakota St @ Iowa: Pick: Iowa
Georgia St @ Wisconsin: Pick: Wisconsin
Colorado @ Michigan: Pick: Michigan
Oregon @ Nebraska: Pick: Nebraska
Western Michigan @ Illinois: Pick: Western Michigan
Maryland @ UCF: Pick Maryland
Michigan St @ Notre Dame: Pick: Notre Dame
Ohio St @ Oklahoma: Pick: Ohio St
Duke @ Northwestern: Pick: Duke

Outside the Big Ten

NCAA Week Two Picks

Holey moley what a week it was for college football! Crazy upsets (Houston, Wisconsin, South Alabama!) Crazy finishes (Texas-Notre Dame, Texas A&M-UCLA), if this is the kind of college football season we are in store for then buckle up! Lets also take a moment to talk about how pathetic the SEC looked this week. Tennessee got outplayed by App St, LSU lost, Mississippi st and Kentucky both lost as 25+ point favorites, Ole Miss lost, Florida led 10-7 in the 4th quarter against UMass, Arkansas beat a team they were favored to beat by 20 by only one point. The only SEC teams who have anything to brag about right now are Alabama, Texas A&M, and Georgia. Anyway, I went 12-2 in picking Big Ten games in week one, and 2-1 outside of it.

Maryland @ Florida International: Pick: Maryland
Wyoming @ Nebraska: Pick: Nebraska
Penn St @ Pittsburgh: Pick: Penn St
UCF @ Michigan: Pick: Michigan
