Week 12

Trying to predict winners in November:


We’re now into the homestretch of the regular season.  Love my picks this week.  Could go a perfect 8-0.  Hasn’t been done this season or even talked about but I think we’re looking at 8 winners.  Let’s roll.

PS – I know Florida St is a sucker line and the public is betting heavy on the Seminoles.  Well I don’t trust a freshman Miami quarterback in primetime.  Guy is going to fold.

Double PS – Keep an eye out for bad teams who appear to have little to play for other than pride and seem ready to hoist the white flag.  They will often circle one battle as their ‘bowl game’.  This was on display last week as Clemson visited Wake Forest.  The Demon Deacons are weak and have a remote chance at avoiding a winless ACC campaign.  But if you watched the game on Thursday night, it was readily apparent that Wake was going to fight.  They eventually lost to Clemson but Wake battled the heavily favored Tigers to a first half standstill.  On national TV at home, this was the proverbial bowl game for Wake Forest and covered the spread wire to wire.

SMU (+11.5) - South Florida
Florida St (-2) - Miami FL

More on FSU: The algo predicts FSU winning by a TD. 34-27. Miami has been a big sharp team the last few weeks, I think since they lost at Nebraska. Miami has this game circled on their calendar, haven't beaten FSU at home since 04 when frank gore scored the winning TD. Louisville ran on FSU and Miami has a great rushing attack. FSU will load the box and dare the freshman qb to beat them. I don't like Winston but the guy thrives under pressure and I trust him in a close game.

Triple PS: The K-Train (no longer known as the K-Pain) is now 6-2 in the past two weeks and is on fire. 3-1 last week with three solid covers including the lock of the week. Continuing this streak this week with four gems below.

Run for the ages continues.
