This will be the final lock of the week post, not only of the season, but ever. Next year my gambling picks will have a new format.
Since eight games are featuring ranked teams, I've gone ahead and decided to pick all ten conference championship games. So let's have a little fun:
Florida Atlantic -8 v. UAB
UAB is a creditable 9-3 and defending conference champion, but this is a list of the FBS teams they have defeated this year:
at Akron
|
South Alabama
|
|
Rice
|
At UTSA
|
Old Dominion
|
|
|
UTEP
|
Louisiana Tech
|
At North Texas
|
The first six listed are six of the worst ten teams in FBS. I think 8 points is good value for Lane Kiffin in what could be his curtain call at FAU.
Last week: Clemson -27 @ South Carolina (correct)
Season 5-7-1 (-$170)
Overall: 128-123-4 (-$70)
