Ohio State at Illinois.
Line: Ohio State by 33.
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). Follow @walterfootball for updates.
Ohio State started off slowly in conference play, but they’ve demolished everyone starting with the Penn State game. I don’t see why this result would be any different; Illinois was just blown out against Indiana, so it’ll have trouble keeping up with the Buckeyes. Besides, Ohio State needs all of the high-margin victories it can get to perhaps convince the voters that they should be the No. 2 team.
College Football Pick: Ohio State -33 (3 Units) — Incorrect; -$330
UAB at East Carolina.
Line: UAB by 27.5.
Saturday, 2:00 p.m.
The one glaring difference between the NFL and college football, aside from the talent level, is the lack of parity. Professional players will seldom quit for more than one game because they need to get paid. College players on terrible teams, on the other hand, will sometimes quit because they don’t have NFL aspirations. UAB has mailed it in. It just lost to a mediocre Marshall team by 42 points. East Carolina is better than the Herd.
College Football Pick: East Carolina -27.5 (3 Units) — Correct; +$300
Syracuse at Florida State.
Line: Florida State by 38.5.
Saturday, 3:30 p.m.
Florida State has blown out all of its opponents this year, and that trend should continue against a miserable Syracuse squad. I originally planned this to be a two-unit pick, but the Jameis Winston sexual battery allegations has made me cut this play in half. The Seminoles should still roll, but I’m going to be more cautious with this selection because they could be distracted.
College Football Pick: Florida State -38.5 (1 Unit) — Correct; +$100
Alabama at Mississippi State.
Line: Alabama by 25.
Saturday, 7:45 p.m.
Alabama has been rolling over everyone in the SEC, so I don’t see why that would suddenly change against a Mississippi State team that couldn’t compete against LSU or South Carolina.
College Football Pick: Alabama -25 (3 Units) — Incorrect; -$330
Wyoming at Boise State.
Line: Boise State by 23.
Saturday, 10:15 p.m.
I love picking solid teams coming off byes playing inferior competition. That’s exactly what’s happening here. Boise State is a talented squad and is especially dominant on its blue turf. Wyoming, meanwhile, showed that it couldn’t compete against Fresno State last week.
College Football Pick: Boise State -23 (2 Units) — Correct; +$200
