Week 2

+ Lasko’s Week 2 Picks --

North Texas (+5.5) - SMU
Rutgers (-2) - Washington State
Marshall (-3.5) - Ohio
Western Kentucky (+1) - Louisiana Tech
BYU (+3) - Boise State
Over 55 - BYU vs. Boise State


Last Week: 2-3
Season: 2-3 (40%)
Career: 328-258-14 (56.0%)



Game notes --

North Texas – SMU: North Texas won this game 43-6 last year.  SMU is 1-14 in its last 15 games.  Give me the points por favor.

Rutgers – Washington State: Academic scandals, arrested players, no big deal -- Rutgers won 63-13 last week, meanwhile Wazzu is absolutely rattled right now.  They were upset at home by Portland State as a 30 point favorite.  Since 1980 there have been 1,235 teams favored by 30 points or more and only 14 of those teams have lost outright.

Marshall – Ohio: If Marshall can beat a Big Ten powerhouse like Purdue in week one, they’ll have no trouble with Ohio.  Got this line at -3.

Western Kentucky – Louisiana Tech: Western Kentucky was favored at the open.  Now that they're catching points, I'm all over this.  One time Hilltoppers.


BYU – Boise State: These teams are meeting for the fourth straight season with the home team having won the previous three matchups. We might need another hail mary as the clock expires but I’m expecting BYU to pull off the win.
