For Entertainment Purposes Only Lock Of The Week, Week 5

Miami (FL) -18.5 @ South Florida

Double digit road favorites aren't always a wise play, but I'm having trouble seeing how an awful South Florida team can keep it within 3 scores here.

Last week:  Stanford -7.5 v. Arizona State (correct)
Season:  2-1-1

For Entertainment Purposes Only Lock Of The Week, Week 4

The choices were pretty thin this week.  Lots of big spreads out there.

Stanford -7.5 v. Arizona State.

Arizona State wasn't particularly efficient or explosive against Wisconsin last week, poor qualities to have against Stanford's defense.

Last week:  Louisville -14 v. Kentucky.  That was a push.

Season:  1-1-1

For Entertainment Purposes Only Lock Of The Week, Week 3

We'll stay away from the huge spreads this week.

Louisville -14 v. Kentucky.

Overrated as Louisville may be, Kentucky is neither at their level or a good football team, period.

Last week:  Baylor -27 v. Buffalo (correct)

Season:  1-1

For Entertainment Purposes Lock Of The Week, Week 2

It's an ominous sign when you consider four bets (Alabama -21, Western Michigan +28, Florida State -10.5 were the considerations) and the one you pick is the wrong one.  We soldier on.

Baylor -27 v. Buffalo.

Buffalo's Khalil Mack is awesome, but two straight road games for Buffalo is tough.  Plus, Baylor's offense is more potent and its going to be 100 degrees in Waco Saturday.  27 is a lot to lay but that's nothing for Baylor.

Baylor a 4 TD favorite, welcome to college football in 2013.

Last week:  LSU v. TCU Total points:  under 50 (incorrect)

Season:  0-1
