Felt good to have college football back. Last weekend kicked the fall off nicely, even if my and most everyone else's picks sucked. Surprises, tight games, Les Miles being Les Miles, what more could you ask for? This week offers another solid week of OOC matchups and one really big, early Pac12 game. The national headliner is the Spartans of Michigan State heading to Eugene vs the Roboducks. This appears to be the first head to head game that will help shape the playoffs. If you can swing it, you should really have two TV's up on Saturday night.
Bigger misstep at Oregon in the last decade, RoboDuck circa 2003 or the 2013 hiring of Head Coach Mark Helfrich?
The Games
Friday, September 5th
Pittsburgh -3.5 at Boston College
7:00 pm ESPN
This shirt is porn to Frank Beamer and its for a good cause
- Welcome to The n Big East game of the Week
- Why this game, why watch? Physical, pound the rock #MANBALL action from both teams
Pick: Pitt laying the points, but BC being a homedog in a likely low scoring game, gives me pause.
***
Saturday, September 6th
USC at Stanford -2.5
3:30 pm ABC
- The Leland Stanford Junior University Marching Band is a sure-fire lock to reenact Josh Shaw's past couple of weeks, right?
- If SouthernCal loses this game, are they the west coast version of Da U, i.e. Were Back
Pick: Stanford winning by a touchdown, USC is going to have to earn being an elite team.
***
Michigan State at Oregon -11.5
6:30 pm FOX
- 3 yards and cloud of dust vs 30 yards and cloud of cannabis
- Speaking of weed, if Lee Corso does an onset toke to one up last week's beer sipping with Stone Cold, I'll eat my hat
Pick: Michigan State and the points with a real chance to get the upset. I expect MSU to make the game physical, not loose and free.
***
East Carolina at South Carolina -16.5
7:00 pm ESPNU
Go 'Cocks
- Could the Ol Ball Coach look like the OLD Ball Coach after this weekend? I shudder to think ...
- I'd be shocked if there hasn't been one ECU fan who hasn't already got a 'Pirates 2014 14-0' chest tat to show off while riding around the back of his bro's S10.
Pick: ECU and the points. Sakerlina DB's better have fixed some things real quick. ECU's Wrs might not be aTm good, but they aren't as far off as you'd think.
***
Michigan at Notre Dame -3.5
7:30 pm NBC
- I should take bets on whether meat sweats Brady Hoke vs red-faced Brian Kelly, will be the biggest cameraman curiosity
- The effects of ND as the #goacc 15th, sorta, partial member starts after this game. Out with Michigan, in NC State, Wake
Pick: Michigan getting the points. Hoke has been collecting talent, time for them to play like it.
***
Virginia Tech at Ohio State -10.5
8:00 pm ESPN
Damn
- Home and Home, not a neutral site game, Hell Yes. To play in the Horseshoe is real treat, enjoy the scene Hokies
- You know Urban Meyer has to hate Saturday night games, it really crimps his family board game night
Pick: Virginia Tech getting the points, but damn, that line is tough. I think it will be a relatively low scoring, close Buckeyes win.
***
Brewery of the Week:
STONE Brewing
All of THEM, Stone Brewing East is going to be located in the commonwealths! Those at the game, be sure to tell erryone in Columbus, Stone is coming to either Richmond or Norfolk and they can suck it.
***
As always, make your picks against the spread with the rest of us and lets hope we all do better next week.
Review:
Punt -3.5 at BC
