I liked USC tonight and it paid off. My other picks for this weekends are, Michigan -4 , Washington + 16.5 and Alabama -4.5. I know 75% of the public is taking LSU and the points on this and have (good) reason to based on LSU's history in big time night games on the road, however Bama's defense and LSU's defense are about even and Bama has the better offense and playing at home, so I'll swallow the 4.5 on this on and take the home team. Washington has a great run game and playing at home, Oregon is overrated, Oregon wins but won't cover, take the points. Michigan is, yes a trap line, however I believe Iowa is being given too much credit for nothing really. Michigan lost on the road to Michigan st in which was no surprise, the lost last year to them as well, other than that Michigan has played well. So why is the spread only -4? I have no idea, give the points, Michigan wins big on the road!

Good luck, I'm with you on Michigan and Washington. Michigan spread is set so low based on the Iowa being tough at home theory, and two straight wins over Michigan. Don't see any of that mattering. I like Michigan by 10+. Will probably buy Washington up to +17 just to be on the safe side. They hung around with Stanford for a while before their defense just couldn't hang...I think a raucous home field advantage keeps them in this game most of the way.Comment -
