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.


East Carolina (2-0) at Virginia Tech (0-2)
Line: Virginia Tech by 19.5.

Saturday, 1:30 ET

I don’t like much this week, but this is my favorite game. With Virginia Tech losing to James Madison, everyone is all over East Carolina and the massive amount of points they’re getting. Let’s not forget that the Hokies nearly beat Boise State two weeks ago. They didn’t prepare at all for James Madison, but they’ll be out for blood in this game after getting trashed all week.

Prediction: Virginia Tech 34, East Carolina 6
Virginia Tech -19.5 (4 Units) — Correct; +$400







Central Michigan (1-1) at Eastern Michigan (0-2)
Line: Central Michigan by 10.

Saturday, 4:00 ET

This is set up for major MAC point shaving, but I like Eastern Michigan regardless. They’ve covered both their games this year, and always seem to play Central Michigan close at home.

Prediction: Central Michigan 27, Eastern Michigan 24
Eastern Michigan +10 (2 Units) — Incorrect; -$220






Boise State (1-0) at Wyoming (1-1)
Line: Boise State by 23.

Saturday, 8:00 ET

Laying 20-plus on the road usually isn’t my thing, but like I said, I don’t like much this week so I’ll have to make an exception. Boise State just watched Virginia Tech go down to James Madison, so they know they have to kick the crap out of everyone they play to be eligible for the final postseason exhibition contest.

Prediction: Boise State 45, Wyoming 7
Boise State -23 (1 Unit) — Correct; +$100




New Mexico State (0-1) at UTEP (1-1)
Line: UTEP by 15.

Saturday, 9:00 ET

UTEP isn’t very good and doesn’t deserve to be favored by 15. Plus, they’re coming off a tough loss to Houston, so they may not be up for playing New Mexico State.

Prediction: UTEP 24, New Mexico State 14
New Mexico State +15 (2 Units) — Incorrect; -$220






Houston (2-0) at UCLA (0-2)
Line: Houston by 3.

Saturday, 10:30 ET

UCLA is garbage, as they just lost to Stanford at home, 35-0. Houston should be able to come close to duplicating that result.

Prediction: Houston 27, UCLA 0
Houston -3 (3 Units) — Incorrect; -$330
