THURSDAY NIGHT BALL
Carolina at The U - 8pm on the Mothership - Arguably the biggest game of the year that isn't a rivalry game. Carolina looks for a season altering win after sputtering out of the gate. Miami is an 18 point fave. Pick coming later.
FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS
Memphis (-14) at Tulane - 7pm on the Deuce - Memphis heads to the Big Easy for a lil Friday night stroll down Bourbon street. The Tigers air raid won't be stopped in the Bayou.
UCLA at Colorado (-10) - 9pm on the FS1 - I'm predicting the continued free fall from the Bruins this Friday night. Chip is burning it all to the ground this year.
FOOTBALL SATURDAY
As I alluded to it, this Saturday is LOADED. Ranked matchup is something we'll get to tune into all damn day. Absolutely cannot wait.
High Nooners
Main Event - West 'By God' Virginia (-3.5) at Tejas Tech - High Noon on the Deuce - Big Game Billy Grier looks to add another line item for his quest for the Heisman.
Next Option - UVA (+5.5) at State - 1220 on ACC Net - I'm all in on the UVA squad. They have a somewhat decent defense aand has shown explosiveness in the run game. Here's to a Wahoo win in West Raleigh.
This is about it for the Nooner slate. Here's your Honorable Mention picks.
Klimpsun (-24) over Cuse courtesy of Trevor Lawrence, OK State -18 over Kansas.
Mid-Afternooners
The spread of mid-afternooners has the potential for complete and utter chaos with several ranked teams as double digit faves against sneaky opponents. Here are my favorite games with Chaos potential.
Baylor (+23.5) at Oklahoma - 330 on ABC
UCF (-17) vs Pitt - 330 on the U
Texas (-9) at Kansas State - 330 on FS1
VAWLS (+31.5) at UGA - CBS, you know what time
Southern Miss (+27.5) at Auburn, 4 on SEC Net
Evening Games
Given the stretch of ballgames in the afternoon slate that may have blow out potential, it's worth noting the ballgames and picks that'll peak your interest in the wedge between afternooners and night games.
Main Event - Florida (+8) at Mississippi State - 6pm on the Mothership - Thought about a bounce back game from the Dawgs but that run defense got straight EXPOSED last weekend.
Night Games
This Saturday night is likely the biggest since opening weekend. There are two main events which you'll want screens for:
Main Event A: Ohio State (-3.5) at Penn State - 730pm on ABC - A likely playoff elimination game and B1G East crown is on the line for this one. Happy Valley. White Out. Saturday Night. Sign me up.
Main Event B: Stanford (+6) at ND - 730pm on NBC - The annual meat grinder between the Cardinal and the Golden Domers arrives a tad earlier than years past. Again, this is a likely playoff elimination game for both programs. A win for Notre Dame sends the world on a full fledged Irish HYPE TRAIN.
Next Screen: BYU (+17.5) at Washington - 830 on Fox - I like Washington to get the dub in this one, but 17.5 felt like too many points against a rejuvenated Mormon empire.
Another good option: Ole Miss (+12) at LSU - 9pm on the Mothership - I somewhat wanted to take the Rebels outright in this one but Saturday Night in Death Valley prevented me. Maybe I'm living too much in the past....
Another Good Option - Virginia Tech (+5) at Duke - 7pm on the Deuce - I think Duke wins outright, but in a tight one.
Late Night
Lovely lil slate of night caps for your viewing and betting pleasure. It ven includes a matchup between two top 25 squads.
Main Event: Oregon (-2.5) at Cal - 1030 on FS1 - The Carolina fan in me wants Cal to keep winning to help my psyche out with the early season loss. However, Oregon looked straight dominant for 3 quarters last week.
Next Option - Southern Cal (-3.5) at Zona - 103 on the Deuce - Southern Cal may have a shot at being a 9 or 10 win team after all. Too much talent to sleep on them.
Toledo at Fresno State (-8) - 1030 on the U - This is the degenerates pick this week. By no means should be interested in the game other than if you have money on it.
Enjoy the weekend. Go Heels.
