Chris's "2013 Was So Last Year" Picks

East Carolina (-7) @ Temple - It was a trap.  Temple won 20-10.  Definitely a trap.  0-1

Virginia @ Georgia Tech UNDER 56 - steering right into the unwatchable football skid.  Georgia Tech 35-10.  1-1.

Georgia (-13) v. Florida - "Betting on Mark Richt is always a smart play," said no one, ever.  1-2.

Old Dominion @ Vanderbilt UNDER 61 - Vandy rolls 42-28, which is well over 61 points.  I would have to look back to see Chris' rationale for this terrible pick, but I am fairly confident that it was in fact terrible.  1-3.

Ohio State (-28) v. Illinois - I can't knock a man for fading Dogtrash Illinois.  tOSU wins something like 145-3.   Or thereabouts.  2-3.

Arizona State (-5.5) v. Utah - Peeps keep sleeping on the Utes.  and I thought I_S was the one with irrational love for Arizona State.  Oh well.  ASU wins 19-16, but doesn't cover the spread.  2-4.

KidB's "Free Money" Picks

Florida State-3.5 over LOUISVILLE: The jig is up on these Thursday night road games.  The Thursday night road factor has been factored into the lines.  FSU wins 42-31. 1-0.

Cincinnati-4 over TULANE:  Who has two thumbs and had a very nice week picking games?  2-0.

GEORGIA TECH-3 over Virginia: It's a comfy train.  I like it here.  3-0.

Arkansas State-14.5 over IDAHO: Arkansas State made me sweat it out, but still ended up prevailing over opponent and spread, 44-28.  4-0.

Air Force-3.5 over ARMY: Easy breezy beautiful here.  Falcons roll 23-6.  5-0.

Western Michigan-6.5 over HIPSTER MIAMI: Western Michigan rowed the boat, per usual.  They won 41-10.  It was quite easy.   6-0.

I_S's "Milos Raonic Quality" Picks

UNC +14.5 over Miami. I actually thought this was a decent pick at the time, but luckily I was wrong as Miami won by like 90.  0-1.

Georgia State +11.5 over Appalachian State. See above. 0-2

Hey Milos!

Indiana +7 over Michigan. It's one thing to fade a program in chaos.  It's quite another to do it when they're playing Indiana....in football. Meeshegan prevails. 34-10.  Sad face for I_S.  0-3. 

Kentucky +7 over Missouri. I sure hope Tennessee can beat one of these terrible teams.  Mizzou wins 20-10.  Sad face for I_S.  0-4

Colorado State -7 over San Jose State. Colorado State got kinda good when we weren't paying attention, but just not quite good enough to cover this spread.  38-31.  It's a push.  0-4-1

Arkansas State -14.5 over Idaho. Way to tail The Kid, I_S.  Good decision.  1-4-1.
