Last week, I went 2-1 against the spread on college games, and 1-2 in the NFL. This week, we'll try to do a little bit better.
~I think ARKANSAS (-7) got jobbed last weekend against Alabama, and if I'm a bit mad about it even though I don't care about Razorbacks football anymore than I do Czechoslovakia's women's gymnastics team, I can onlky imagine how pissed they are. Darren McFadden might set an SEC record for defenders ran over. Kentucky is coming off of a huge win over Louisville, and might have a hard time getting focussed in time to go into Arkansas.
~Even though Georgia is getting 3.5, I think they are going to have a hard time going in to ALABAMA and getting a win, so I'm taking the Tide. Despite a little home field help from the refs, Nick Saban really did have a good gameplan, and I expect he'll have a good one again this weekend so that Bad Stafford shows up for the Bulldogs.
~It's an all-SEC extravaganza! I'm taking LSU to cover 16 points at home against South Carolina. The Gamecocks got a nice win last weekend, just like Kentucky, and I expect they're going to lose, just like Kentucky, and lose big, probably somewhere in the neighborhood of twenty points. If this one was in SC, it might be a slightly different story, but LSU's defense isn't just the best defense in the conference, it's the best in the country, and by a wide margin.
And in the NFL... picks tomorrow!
