Ballsy move betting against Frank Beamer in his last home game. UNC is red hot, but I wouldn't touch that game.

Gotta stop picking Duke. They couldn't cover a baby with a blanket.

[Mike in STL]

9-6. Back over 60%...Raiders game pending.

In also going to add one.

Broncos (PK) @ Bears

Osweiler might not be shit, (given the pick em spred) but that Broncos defense is legit. Long day for Cutler.

Guarantee ain't what it used to be

RShack:  Miami (+2.5) vs. Georgia Tech

 

Can you get several year's worth of rotten luck out of the way in just 1 horrendous season?  Maybe?

 

GT was down 3 levels on the chart at RB and WR already... that happened weeks ago... and the skill kids who were still in high school a few months ago just don't know how to block right yet, much less how to do it with any precision... then after the 1st Q today, GT was down to their 3rd string QB... then, just to make his debut even more fun, it didn't just rain, it rained in sheets of water... so when he'd pitch the ball to somebody, it was like they were trying to catch a wet bar of soap in the shower... and, presto, 9 (!!) fumbles... they only lost a couple of them but add in the 2 picks and that was the dang game...

 

I keep watching, just because... but Jesus...

 

Given how good the team looked before the wheels came off, well, I've never seen a season go to hell like this one has...

[Pedro Cerrano]

3-3

 

Really liked the card this week.  Not sure what happened with Utah but I guess they aren't as good as I thought.

 

Was dumb of me to pick against VT in Beamer's last game -- Randall was right there.

[Pedro Cerrano]

2-5 in my other liked games lol.

[RShack]

2-5 in my other liked games lol.

 

You're doing a lot better than GT is...

GT avoided getting shutout at home for the first time in almost 60 years...

[Pedro Cerrano]

Record to date:  40-37.

 

Can't believe the season is almost over.  For the Bowls, I'll pick a few games here and there in a "Pedro's Pickz:  Bowl Spectacular!" thread but, for now, let's close strong and end up in the black (when you include juice).

 

I SHOULD say, that I am up a lot more than my record indicates, that's because I make more bets than just these 5 every week, it's just that my *best* plays have been close to .500.  Not as many games this weekend, but I found 5 for ya!

 

Kansas State (+6.5) vs. West Virginia

Houston (-6) vs. Temple

Stanford (-4.5) vs. USC*

North Carolina (+4.5) at Clemson*

Michigan State (-3.5) at Iowa*

 

*Neutral Field

 

NFL Bonus:  Patriots (-10) vs. Eagles

 

RShack is (mercifully) hibernating for the winter (this is a shot at GaTech, not Shack, just to be clear)

[Mike in STL]

I like Carolina to win outright. I'll put the rest of my picks up later.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Randall and I both on UNC.

 

Poor Antoine.

[Mike in STL]

UNC line moved from +4.5 to +6. Not sure if that is good or bad since I picked them to win outright.
