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

And further, I didn't 'fade you'; I was on that game since Monday and just gave my opinion in the discussion, but going forward I will be more sensitive. But I do stand by the fact that NC State is not good. No knowledge on tonight.

My lines may be a bit off because I got them early, but here's what I took. G.T. -7.5 LSU -7 Pitt +8 G.T. ha been rolling lately, LSU has covered every week so far, and Pitt isn't that bad. They should be able to keep this game close with Ray Graham. Thoughts?? Potski 09-23-2011 02:23 pm xxx.xxx.xxx.243 (total posts: 6) 15     16 CF.... here come the posts...

In NCAA I like Ohio State (yes, THE Ohio State) on a bounce back with Miller at home against helpless Colorado. Also like LSU, Alabama and East Carolina. IN the NFL I do like Walter's two big plays this week. I'll add an angry Baltimore team to those two U below 09-23-2011 08:18 am xxx.xxx.xxx.243 (total posts: 6) 12     13 What crap did I talk...all I said is I wanted more info on why he is running with Cincy... and not "they are no good". Everything I was seeing was going the other way...obviously I was way off... but it does happen from time to time...Congrats to all who won... Vegas took it in the arse... and that's why we talk a game through here.. And you below...thanks for your insight, it's invaluable to this site. @potski 09-23-2011 04:46 am xxx.xxx.xxx.109 (total posts: 1) 12     12 You talk a lot of crap but never back it up... hope your nc state paid off... Jeff cent NJ 09-22-2011 11:33 pm xxx.xxx.xxx7.79 (total posts: 11) 14     11 All over cinci -7.5 tonight, collaro is straight dirty, keep a mental note. I love Boise and plan on riding them all year as well. Also love the ND play. Notre Dame is pretty good and has shook off the cob webs. im leanin on ucf tomorrow night tho. Over all i like a lot of walts picks ncaa and nfl. Also on Gatech -7, Penn st comin off an ugly game will crush, LSU and there fast defense -6, Bama will work arkansas at home, arkansas is nothin like years past. I also kinda like oklahoma, florida, and nebraska covering there 17-21 point spreads. The texas am and ok st game is gonna be a great one tomorrow. Im leanin tex am but this one scares me big time. i recommend not betting and just enjoying the game as a fan of football. Good luck guys, lets make some coin ChicagoKId 09-22-2011 11:31 pm xxx.xxx.xxx2.38 (total posts: 5) 22     11 After all analysis....NC State is still not good.
