Minnesota @ Wisconsin

Best Pick = Wisconsin -8

Wisconsin is 5-1, their only loss was to Michigan,
who is the 3rd best team in the country in my
opinion. Their other 5 games they've won easily
by 14 points or more. Running back, P.J. Hill has
been very productive for the Badgers this season,
averaging 141.2 yards per game on the ground, which
is 5th in the nation. Minnesota ranks 98th out of
119 teams in rushing defense, surrendering 164.3
yards per game. The Gophers are coming off an
overtime loss to Penn State at home, which can not
be good for their confidence. If this game were at
Minnesota, I'd probably back away from this one, but
being in Wisconsin, and the Badger's being a much
better team, I like the odds of Wisconsin beating
them by double digits in this game.

----------------------------------------------------

California @ Washington State

Best Pick = California -8

California has beaten their last 5 opponents by 21
or more, including 11th ranked Oregon last week.
This offense could contend with some NFL defenses
in my honest opinion. I don't see Washington state
staying within 2 Touchdowns in this one, not even
at home.

--------------------------------------------------

Michigan @ Penn State

Strong Pick = Michigan -5.5

The Wolverines are a much better team than Penn
State. Although they're without their star WR, Mario
Manningham, they should still beat Penn State by
atleast a TD. Lions QB, Anthony Morelli, just isn't
a big game performer, and seems to struggle down the
stretch as well. Penn State will put up a good fight
but Michigan's defense will step it up and be the
difference in this one. Michigan is also playing for
a national title shot, so this game means alot more
to them.

----------------------------------------------------

Pittsburgh @ Central Florida

Strong Pick = Pittsburgh -10

Pitt has been under the radar all season long,
quietly going 5-1 this year. Tyler Palko is putting
out Heisman like numbers up with 103 completions, a
70.5 completion percentage, 1,489 Yards, 15 TD,
only 3 interceptions, and a rating of 186.0!! These
numbers remind me of the first half of the year
that Kyle Orton put up at Purdue two years ago, and
that was all anyone could talk about. The Panther's
also have a good back in Larod Howling, who has
428 yards, and averaging 5.2 per carry. Pitt's
defense has only given up 20 total points in their
last 3 games. Pitt has Central Florida beat in every
aspect of the game in this one. Should be an easy
win.

----------------------------------------------------

Florida @ Auburn

Strong Pick = OVER 39 points

39 points don't seem much for these two teams to
put up. Auburn is coming off a horrible outing
against Arkansas, who beat them 27-10. This isn't
the type of offense to have two bad outings in a
row, even against a really good Gators defense.
Florida's offense is also averaging 28.3 points per
game, so each team should easily score 3 TD's a
piece.

-----------------------------------------------------

Virginia Tech @ Boston College

Regular Pick = Virginia Tech -2

Virginia Tech is coming off a loss to Georgia
Tech, who could possibly beat just about any team
in the country. Boston College has a good record
but only beat one good team in Clemson by one
point. Boston College will also be playing without
their kicker, who was suspended. He'll be replaced
by a walk-on who has never played in a football
game, let alone a Division one game. Against a
great defense like the Hokies, a kicking game will
be crucial. Virginia Tech is also without WR, Josh
Hyman due to suspension. He's listed everywhere as
their 2nd leading reciever, but he's only second
in catches by one catch. He's 5th on the team in
YPC, with no TD's. Don't look to much into him not
playing, they have some depth at that position.
Virginia Tech bounces back and wins a tuff game
in Boston.

--------------------------------------------------

Michigan @ Penn State

Regular Pick = UNDER 41 points

This is going to be a very physical game between two
heated rivals. Michigan is without star reciever
Mario Manningham, who leads the nation with 9 TD
catches. Penn State will have trouble moving the
ball against Michigan who have one of the best run
defenses in the game.
