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.


Maryland at Clemson
Line: Clemson by 31.5.

Saturday, 3:30 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.

Maryland is a mess. The team has endured so many injuries that it’s starting a linebacker at quarterback. I don’t see how they can be competitive with the Tigers, who have blown many teams out this year.

College Football Pick: Clemson -31.5 (3 Units) — Correct; +$300







San Jose State at New Mexico State
Line: San Jose State by 22.5.

Saturday, 3:30 p.m.

Speaking of teams that aren’t competitive, how do you lose by 35 to Auburn? New Mexico State is a disaster. San Jose State is a dominant small-conference team that has taken care of business almost every week.

College Football Pick: San Jose State -22.5 (3 Units) — Correct; +$300






Notre Dame at Boston College
Line: Notre Dame by 18.5.

Saturday, 8:00 p.m.

You know the last time Notre Dame won by more than 18 points? It was Oct. 6. Granted, the Irish have played better opponents than Boston College, but this is a heated rivalry. Plus, Notre Dame is traveling off an overtime victory, which is seldom good.

College Football Pick: Boston College +18.5 (1 Unit) — Correct; +$100






Idaho at BYU
Line: BYU by 38.

Saturday, 10:15 p.m.

Idaho has been getting blown out almost every week. The only team the Vandals have beaten is New Mexico State (big surprise). BYU, meanwhile, is coming off a bye, so the team has had two weeks to prepare.

College Football Pick: BYU -38 (2 Units) — Correct; +$200






Oregon at California
Line: Oregon by 28.

Saturday, 10:30 p.m.

Oregon scores so quickly that it should have this spread covered by halftime. I don’t see how Cal can be competitive without Keenan Allen.

College Football Pick: Oregon -28 (3 Units) — Correct; +$300
