    10-12-14 CFB Picks

    10-12-14 CFB

    Best Pick Record = 6-1
    Strong Pick Record = 7-3
    Regular Pick Record = 4-2

    -----------------------------------------------------

    Minnesota @ Wisconsin

    Best Pick = Wisconsin -8

    Wisconsin is 5-1, their only loss was to Michigan,
    who is the 3rd best team in the country in my
    opinion. Their other 5 games they've won easily
    by 14 points or more. Running back, P.J. Hill has
    been very productive for the Badgers this season,
    averaging 141.2 yards per game on the ground, which
    is 5th in the nation. Minnesota ranks 98th out of
    119 teams in rushing defense, surrendering 164.3
    yards per game. The Gophers are coming off an
    overtime loss to Penn State at home, which can not
    be good for their confidence. If this game were at
    Minnesota, I'd probably back away from this one, but
    being in Wisconsin, and the Badger's being a much
    better team, I like the odds of Wisconsin beating
    them by double digits in this game.

    ----------------------------------------------------

    California @ Washington State

    Best Pick = California -8

    California has beaten their last 5 opponents by 21
    or more, including 11th ranked Oregon last week.
    This offense could contend with some NFL defenses
    in my honest opinion. I don't see Washington state
    staying within 2 Touchdowns in this one, not even
    at home.

    --------------------------------------------------

    Michigan @ Penn State

    Strong Pick = Michigan -5.5

    The Wolverines are a much better team than Penn
    State. Although they're without their star WR, Mario
    Manningham, they should still beat Penn State by
    atleast a TD. Lions QB, Anthony Morelli, just isn't
    a big game performer, and seems to struggle down the
    stretch as well. Penn State will put up a good fight
    but Michigan's defense will step it up and be the
    difference in this one. Michigan is also playing for
    a national title shot, so this game means alot more
    to them.

    ----------------------------------------------------

    Pittsburgh @ Central Florida

    Strong Pick = Pittsburgh -10

    Pitt has been under the radar all season long,
    quietly going 5-1 this year. Tyler Palko is putting
    out Heisman like numbers up with 103 completions, a
    70.5 completion percentage, 1,489 Yards, 15 TD,
    only 3 interceptions, and a rating of 186.0!! These
    numbers remind me of the first half of the year
    that Kyle Orton put up at Purdue two years ago, and
    that was all anyone could talk about. The Panther's
    also have a good back in Larod Howling, who has
    428 yards, and averaging 5.2 per carry. Pitt's
    defense has only given up 20 total points in their
    last 3 games. Pitt has Central Florida beat in every
    aspect of the game in this one. Should be an easy
    win.

    ----------------------------------------------------

    Florida @ Auburn

    Strong Pick = OVER 39 points

    39 points don't seem much for these two teams to
    put up. Auburn is coming off a horrible outing
    against Arkansas, who beat them 27-10. This isn't
    the type of offense to have two bad outings in a
    row, even against a really good Gators defense.
    Florida's offense is also averaging 28.3 points per
    game, so each team should easily score 3 TD's a
    piece.

    -----------------------------------------------------

    Virginia Tech @ Boston College

    Regular Pick = Virginia Tech -2

    Virginia Tech is coming off a loss to Georgia
    Tech, who could possibly beat just about any team
    in the country. Boston College has a good record
    but only beat one good team in Clemson by one
    point. Boston College will also be playing without
    their kicker, who was suspended. He'll be replaced
    by a walk-on who has never played in a football
    game, let alone a Division one game. Against a
    great defense like the Hokies, a kicking game will
    be crucial. Virginia Tech is also without WR, Josh
    Hyman due to suspension. He's listed everywhere as
    their 2nd leading reciever, but he's only second
    in catches by one catch. He's 5th on the team in
    YPC, with no TD's. Don't look to much into him not
    playing, they have some depth at that position.
    Virginia Tech bounces back and wins a tuff game
    in Boston.

    --------------------------------------------------

    Michigan @ Penn State

    Regular Pick = UNDER 41 points

    This is going to be a very physical game between two
    heated rivals. Michigan is without star reciever
    Mario Manningham, who leads the nation with 9 TD
    catches. Penn State will have trouble moving the
    ball against Michigan who have one of the best run
    defenses in the game.
