By the way, the fourth-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.

Ball State at Kent State
Line: Ball State by 1.
Saturday, 12:00 p.m.

As a disclaimer, don't go nuts with my college football picks. I'm much better at picking NFL games (at least I used to be); I'm just doing these upon request. Follow @walterfootball for updates.

Ball State just pulled off two upset victories, but now it's a road favorite. I don't like that change in dynamic for them. Kent State's in a good spot.

College Football Pick: Kent State +1 (1 Unit) -- Correct; +$100

---

Arizona State at California
Line: California by 1.5.
Saturday, 4:00 p.m.

California is coming off two consecutive brutal losses to Ohio State and USC. It could be out of gas against a superior Arizona State squad.

College Football Pick: Arizona State +1.5 (3 Units) -- Correct; +$300

---

UTEP at East Carolina
Line: East Carolina by 4.5.
Saturday, 7:00 p.m.

UTEP battled Wisconsin tough last week. I think that'll give the Miners some encouragement. They should be able to pull the upset here.

College Football Pick: UTEP +4.5 (3 Units) -- Incorrect; -$330

---

Texas-San Antonio at New Mexico State
Line: Texas-San Antonio by 1.
Saturday, 8:00 p.m.

Texas-San Antonio is undefeated and shouldn't have any issues with a New Mexico State squad that just lost to New Mexico.

College Football Pick: Texas-San Antonio -1 (2 Units) -- Correct; +$200

---

Oregon State at Arizona
Line: Arizona by 2.5.
Saturday, 10:00 p.m.

The wrong team is favored in this matchup. Oregon State is really good, while overrated Arizona couldn't do anything against Oregon. The Wildcats will be flat coming off that loss.

College Football Pick: Oregon State +2.5 (3 Units) -- Correct; +$300

ScrotieMcBoogerBalls 09-24-2011 01:33 pm xxx.xxx.xxx.114 (total posts: 13) 18     18 Scrotie's play of the day: *3 units* UAB Under 24.5 total points scored -UAB has yet to score an offensive touchdown this year and are ranked next to last in EVERY statistical category. They were blown out by Tulane at home last week and now face an ECU squad at home who is hungry for their first win. ECU opened up with #12 South Carolina then held #11 Virginia Tech to 17 pts, losing by a TD. I believe that UAB gets dominated in this game and would be a miracle if they put up 17 pts this game. I'm rolling with UAB's team total of under 24.5. Good luck everyone! bigri30 09-24-2011 01:02 pm xxx.xxx.xxx.183 (total posts: 3) 18     19 +42 Portland St. I don't think TCU is the TCU of old this season. -23 N. Illinois is playing Cal Poly. After getting manhandled by a top title contender it's time to bring out the whipping stick. -45.5 Wi They beat better teams by this much almost so far this season. * These are my gas money plays for next week* bigri30 09-24-2011 12:02 pm xxx.xxx.xxx.183 (total posts: 3) 18     19 leans E.Mich +28. Penn St. isn't that good to win by this much. IT will be close if it evens gets close. BIG TIME BRO!!! 09-24-2011 12:01 pm xxx.xxx.xxx2.37 (total posts: 3) 19     18 FUN FACT OF THE DAY: Pitt Panthers have failed to cover the spread all 3 games this season (0-3) and two of those games were at home against crap small schools. i think that game last wk against a poor Iowa team is gonna be deflating and the Irish are riding high after a big home win against a Top 20 school.

Believe it opened at -20 and is down to -15 now. Seems odd to me, I liked TTech when it was -20 but now I'm thinking some sharps must've moved that line. @chicaGokid 09-23-2011 09:25 pm xxx.xxx.xxx7.86 (total posts: 1) 19     16 No,you did not rub it in my face.....I was not talking to you...you were good and I'm glad you hit it....I was talking to the person by the name@pot ski........the coward......chi kid....keep doing your thing....but if you want to win...fade me!!!
