WEEK 9 AND IT'S THE BIGGEST WEEK OF THE 2015 SEASON FOR YOURS TRULY. I GET TO SEE MY TAR HEELS PLAY THIS WEEK, IN PERSON. NEEDLESS TO SAY I'M FRIGGIN PUMPED.
As for last week's picks.... things could have gone better finishing 8-9-1 for the weekend bring us to 53-55-3 on the year. Gotta think our luck will change and we'll get back in the black this upcoming week
Thursday Night Ball
Night Games
North Carolina at Pitt - 7pm - The Mothership
Pick coming later... I will be repaorting live from Heinz Field tomorrow night. Line is currently 3 points in favor of the Heels
West Virginia at TCU (-14) - 730 pm - FS1
TCU's rollin and WVU ain't. Do the math....
Directional Michigan (-20) at Direction Michigan - 730pm - CBSSN
PJ Fleck tha GAWD is the only Directional MIchigan Coach I'd ever put my money on.
Texas State at Georgia Southern (-21) - 730pm - The U
THURSDAY NIGHT FUN BELT ALERT. /sounds air horn
Late Night
Oregon at Arizona State (-2.5)- 1030pm - The Mothership
Two of the more disappointing squads in the PAC 12 do battle for to get a leg up in the bowl pecking order.
Friday Night Lights
Louisville at Wake Forest (+12) - 7pm - The Deuce
This game just scream #goacction on a Friday Night. Make sure to kick back and watch Louisville derp this one away in Winston.
East Carolina (-7.5) at UCONN - 7pm - The U
East Carolina did me wrong this past weekend after derping their way through a Friday evening by getting plastered by Temple in front of their home crowd. UCONN's one of the worst FBS programs in the country, so I expect Ruffin to take care of biz.
Louisiana Tech at Rice (+12.5) - 8pm - FS1
Jeff Driskel continues to prove that the only thing holding him back was the man currently leading Auburn's defense. I expect many points between both squads with Rice covering only because they can score.
Wyoming at Utah State (-21) - The Deuce - 1015pm
Utah State did me wrong this past weekend after getting TORCHED by San Diego State. Therefore they have a chance to earn my trust back again.
Football Saturday
High Nooners
Illinois (+5.5) at Penn State - Noon - The Deuce
To me, this is the best game of the High Nooners between two schools still trying to stay alive for a decent bowl. Illinois can score and Penn State's inconsistent. What could go wrong for James Franklin?
Virginia Tech (-2.5) at Boston College - 1230pm - ACC Net/ESPN3
Virginia Tech showed us their offense does indeed have some life against a solid Duke defense. BC hasn't been able to score this year against conference play. VT always struggles against BC but for some reason I could see them pulling this one out.
Ole Miss at Auburn (+7.5) - The Mothership - Noon
The Barners gave us an multiple overtime thriller against the Arkansas Hawgs but fell short. Barring the All World Ole Miss team showing the Barners should keep this one close.
Cuse (+20.5) at FSU - Noon - ABC
Cuse has impressed me over the past couple of weeks especially on offense. If their defense can contain Dalvin Cook, they should keep this one close. I mean, Florida State did lose to Georgia Tech.
Sakerlina at Texas A and M (-16.5) - Noon - SEC Net
Sakerlina's walking into a buzz saw after the Aggies put up a dud of game in Oxford this past weekend. I don't give them much of a chance.
Mid Afternooners
Southern Cal at California (+5.5) - 300pm - Fox
Southern Cal looked like one of the most complete teams in the country this past weekend when they beat the livin' snot out of Utah..... They seemed primed for a let down game against Sonny Dykes' High Octane Offense. A West Coast High Nooner. Hoboy.
World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party -330pm- CBS with the GAWD (taking Dawgs + 3)
Florida comes into this game rested, with the hot hand and with the best squad. Because this game brings out the greatest in parody, Expect UGA to win...
Oklahoma State at Texas Tech (+3) - 330pm - The Mothership
Texas Tech's been down right lethal in Lubbock this season. I expect nothing else.
Clemson (-10.5) at NC State - 330pm - ABC/The Deuce Combo
Clemson showed this past week that there's no shot of Clemsoning this year. NC State thinks otherwise, but not many folks are concerned about what's happening in West Raleigh this year.
Night Games
Michigan at Minnesota (+14) - 7pm - The Mothership
The Michigan Man still ails from the last game they played. The Michigan Man shall struggle in the Twin Cities this weekend.
The U (my pick) at d00k - 7pm - The U
Last week confirmed to me that Duke would go 2-2 best case for their stretch against VT, Miami, UNC and Pitt. Miami got blown into smithereens this past weekend at the hands of Clemson but put up a fight this weekend.
Notre Dame (-10) at Temple - 8pm - ABC
Gameday's in Philly for their first ever visit to Temple for when Notre Dame comes to town. Notre Dame is a heavy favorite and I expect them to roll against a Temple squad that ain't played nobody Pawl (Penn St was dismal)!
Late Night
Stanford at Washington State (+12) - 1030pm - The Mothership
This game would have been my pick for Gameday this weekend because of the Washington State fans always flying a flag at College Gameday. In my opinion, ESPN whiffed on this opportunity to head to Pullman.
Arizona at Washington (my pick) - 11pm - FS1
Another #PAC12AfterDark match up between middling teams. Definitely not the premier night cap but it'll do.
Enjoy
WFP
