Va Tech to cover 7 at home v Notre Dame.
After that horrific loss at Old Dominion, the Hokies and their fans will be seeking blood in Blacksburg.
“Enter Sandman” will be blasting, the crowd will be in a frenzy in a nationally televised night game. Going to be fun to watch.
Count on final score less than a touchdown. Hopefully w the Hokies on top!

A little off the board, but I'll be at the Oregon State vs. Wazzu game tomorrow, and the latest I've seen has Wazzu -17. Take them to cover easily, Oregon State is terrible and Mike Leach's crew know how to put up a lot of points on weak teams.
October 6th, 2018 at 3:22 AM ^
Go Hokies, Go Wildcats, and most importantly Go Blue!
October 6th, 2018 at 6:40 AM ^
Take the points for the turtles
October 6th, 2018 at 8:51 AM ^
says the guy that is wrong about everything
October 6th, 2018 at 6:43 AM ^
Fitz blew his wad last week. I think MSU wins big.
Florida is Smooth Jimmy's "Lock of the Week."
Kentucky is my upset special. I think they're for real this year.
October 6th, 2018 at 6:46 AM ^
Unfortunately I agree on Fitz.
Can u explain your Florida love?
October 6th, 2018 at 7:09 AM ^
I think the sparty game could be close. It’s going to be another monsoon game for them, which, surprise! But thorson is a pretty good QB as we saw last week. Sure, they probably gave all they had last week, but sparty always has trouble with NW. I think sparty probably wins (80% confident) but it will be closer than many here think. Just enough to get us excited for our game in two weeks.
October 6th, 2018 at 9:29 AM ^
NW needs to pass to win. The rain hurts the cause.
I like Stanford-3.5 at home over Utah
October 6th, 2018 at 10:39 AM ^
MSU needs to pass to win as well. That game could be a slog
October 6th, 2018 at 10:44 AM ^
Agree on Kentucky.
As I said in my diary, something that hasn't been done since 1950 probably won't be decided by more than 5 points.
October 6th, 2018 at 6:55 AM ^
Wisconsin, Maryland, Florida State.
overall record, a dismal 3-12. Which is why I don’t bet real money.
October 6th, 2018 at 7:29 AM ^
Texas +8 at OU
TAMU -5.5 at UK
UM -17
Lets go!
October 6th, 2018 at 7:29 AM ^
I may take NW +10, their D is pretty solid to stop an offense like MSU's.
October 6th, 2018 at 8:01 AM ^
Don't bet on any teams that are negative point favorites. It's a trick.
October 6th, 2018 at 9:08 AM ^
MSU -10
TAMU -5.5
UMD +17.5
IU +26.5
October 6th, 2018 at 9:34 AM ^
I locked in SMU + 25.5 vs. UCF
October 6th, 2018 at 10:20 AM ^
With Wisconsin around the corner I hope
to be seriously wrong but I’d take the points w the Turtles.
I’ll be rooting for NW but think MSU will
cover.
Here’s hoping the Wolverines show up strong in the first half and just keep rolling!
October 6th, 2018 at 11:07 AM ^
Are you trying to
write your posts in iambic
pentameter? Or is there another reason
for your random line breaks?
October 6th, 2018 at 9:18 PM ^
Lol. Not trying - some random page breaks with my phone.
Apologies for that and what were admittedly and thankfully crappy picks!
October 6th, 2018 at 10:47 AM ^
Look at the unders and homedogs across the midwest especially against teams that have trouble holding the ball.
October 6th, 2018 at 10:49 AM ^
I have VaTech +7, that's a big time back door cover line
Washington -20.5, UCLA is abysmal
Michigan -17.5, they play very well at home
Staying away from Ohio State because I feel they may sleep walk to a 38-14 win after last week, but they're also incredibly talented.
Michigan state -10.5, important to remember Mike D'antoni measures himself against Michigan in every regard and after a Michigan close win, will attempt to make a big statement win.
Mizzou South Carolina under 64, A will muschamp team without a healthy QB at a groggy 11 AM game?
Alabama -35, Saban seems pissed about stuff and Arkansas is bad. I'd take this line at -45
Syracuse -3.5. Pitt is abysmal
Auburn -2.5, Just a got feeling
LSU -2.5, another gut feeling. No real logic behind this.
West Virginia -27, I think the offense will cook against Kansas
Upset Special: Texas +7, RRS is a weird game a Tom Herman is a great underdog
Miami -14, Canes #2 in TFL, Noles Second to last in TFL Allowed
Wake Forest +20.5, home game, Trevor Lawrence coming off of an injury, I bet Clemson is very conservative
Kentucky +5.5, they're better than AM plain and simple
Stanford -3.5, Utah isnt very good.
I was 7-6 last week, 29-22-1 on the Season in strictly college.
October 6th, 2018 at 7:03 PM ^
If I would have faded all your plays I wouldn’t have had to work this week. I’m not sure you know what a back door cover is...
October 6th, 2018 at 11:15 AM ^
I like NW +10 in my heart. But I felt better after I teased it for 6 points with a few other plays. So I have NW +16 which I think is doable.
I like Illinois -5 at Ruggers.
I like OSU - Indiana OVER 64.
And even though I took Michigan -17.5 (for a small amount) I am afraid Harbaugh will go ultra-conservative on offense given the weather conditions. I think opportunities on offense will present themselves but Shea will take the safe play. It'll turn a potential 20 to 30 point win into a 7 to 17 point win instead. Maryland will run run run and churn clock. Michigan will do the same and this game will remain fairly close into the second half even though it won't seem that close. So Michigan is also part of my 6 point teaser. I feel more comfortable giving up 11.5.
