Pick 3 of the week... Football Contest

I will pick my NFL picks later. I have a few college against the spread picks though.

First is my upset pick. I love Oklahoma and hope I am wrong here, but I think the Florida Offense will cover the spread of 7 points and possibly beat OK.

Second, #2 ranked OSU will cover the spread of 9 pts against #12 ranked Miami. OSU never wins big in the big games but I think they will cover the spread becuase of their much stronger running game and strong defense.

Third and this is kind of a weak one but I think Idaho will cover the 28 pt spread against #6 Nebraska. Both have strong offenses and NE won't win by over 4 TD's.


I never pick college but I thought I would go out on a limb with these 3 picks. I could totally stink at this and go 0-3 but I though I would give it a shot.

1-0 so far. And I am glad I am going to be wrong on the Oklahoma game. I want to see them in the BCS. I love their new QB. I guess they are for real this year. And if it weren't for the special teams of Miami scoring two TD's on Ohio, they would be blowing them out. I still think they will win by more than 9

So are we just supposed to pick 3 of what VL picks, or do we each pick our own winners?

We can do either. VL was supposed to give his analysis.

He will as soon as he gets his teleprompter fixed.

To be honest, I am scared to go near anything that VL picks! :VeryScared:

2-1 against the spread. Cha-ching!!! And I am glad I was wrong on the Oklahoma game. I am rooting for them this year. My 4th and too easy of a pick was Wisconsin not winning by more than 40 points. If I had really put money down, that would have been my sure bet. But I wanted a few more challenging ones.

Straight up..... I pick Washington over Dallas, KC over SD, Denver over Jacksonville.

Shanny should win in his first game. SD does not have LT, and I am a Denver native. Those are my reasons. LOL :smiledance:

Ouch! Picking with the heart will get you a 1-2 start. SD, Dall and Denver. But those aren't my picks.

I think I will go with San Diego, Tennessee and NYG.

Crap I just saw that those are the 3 VL picked. I will change at least one by tomorrow as I am heading out now. Those are pretty easy picks though. No wonder he doesn't want to go with the spread.
