By the way, the third-annual Walter/Joker Annual Challenge is on, as I’ll be competing with the Joker’s College Picks. We each pick five games and see who does the best each week.


Ohio State (9-2) at Michigan (5-6)
Line: Ohio State by 11.5.

Saturday, 12:00 ET

It’s time for my crappy college picks! Don’t waste time with stocks, bonds and IRAs! Just fade my college picks and send your kids to college with the money you can win betting against me!

Same old story – Ohio State has beaten Michigan every year since 2003. The Wolverines are a disgrace; they let Wisconsin rip off 10 yards per rush at will last week. It was a horrific effort to say the least.

Prediction: Ohio State 34, Michigan 14
Ohio State -11.5 (2 Units) — Incorrect; -$220 (Congrats if you had OSU -10.5)







Minnesota (6-5) at Iowa (9-2)
Line: Iowa by 10.

Saturday, 12:00 ET

This Iowa team has to be flat after putting everything into that Ohio State game, right? The Hawkeyes suck as big favorites anyway because they don’t have enough offensive firepower.

Prediction: Iowa 13, Minnesota 10
Minnesota +10 (4 Units) — Incorrect; -$440 (Congrats if you had Minnesota +12.5)






Wisconsin (8-2) at Northwestern (7-4)
Line: Wisconsin by 7.

Saturday, 3:30 ET

Against its 1-A opponents, Wisconsin has just two wins by 8-plus points. Northwestern usually does well as an underdog (4-2 ATS). I like the points.

Prediction: Wisconsin 24, Northwestern 23
Northwestern +7 (1 Unit) — Correct; +$100







Purdue (4-7) at Indiana (4-7)
Line: Purdue by 3.

Saturday, 3:30 ET

Purdue’s bowl dreams were crushed in a 40-37 loss to Michigan State last week. Because this game is meaningless, I can’t see them getting up for a feisty Indiana squad that will be looking for revenge after losing to the Boilermakers 62-10 last year.

Prediction: Indiana 31, Purdue 17
Indiana +3 (5 Units) — Incorrect; -$550




Penn State (9-2) at Michigan State (6-5)
Line: Penn State by 3.

Saturday, 3:30 ET

After a week spent in a malaise, the Nittany Lions should be ready to roll against a Michigan State team they always beat (8-3 last 11).

Prediction: Penn State 27, Michigan State 17
Penn State -3 (2 Units) — Correct; +$200
