$500.00 Take #116 Cincinnati (-8.5) over West Virginia (8 p.m., Friday, Nov. 13)
Bearcats are going to punch their BCS ticket with a primetime win on Friday night over West Virginia. The Mountaineers have only played three road games this year and they have lost two of them. And the win was just a win over Syracuse. Cincinnati is ready to make its mark on a national stage and they are still feeling disrespected. I like a blowout win here by the Bearcats, who are 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings.

$600.00 Take #143 Western Michigan (-12.5) over Eastern Michigan (1 p.m., Sat., Nov. 14)
Put a fork in Eastern Michigan! This is one of the worst programs in the country and they have given up 113 points over the last two weeks to teams that don’t have nearly as much offensive firepower as Western Michigan. WMU has played a tough schedule this year and their record looks a bit worse than this group really is. But Tim Hiller is a solid, experienced quarterback and this is his last game against a “rival” Michigan school. He will close his career in style with a blowout.

$400.00 Take #122 Louisville (-7) over Syracuse (Noon, Saturday, Nov. 14)
I went against Syracuse last week for my Game of the Year and I am going to go against them again this week. The Orange have upset Louisville in back-to-back years so it’s time for a little revenge from the Cards. Louisville has covered two straight games and has been decent in their few home games this year. This is only their fourth home game so I think that they are a bit undervalued. The Orange are still not a good football team and this group is pining for the days of Pasqualoni. Louisville is going to blow out the Orange, who are just 1-5 ATS in their last six games.

$400.00 Take #167 Pittsburgh (-7) over Notre Dame (8 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 14)
Notre Dame goes on the road this year and this is their first trip outside of South Bend in almost two months! Pittsbugh is 5-0 at home this year and they have won five straight games. Pittsburgh is a solid 6-2 ATS so far this season and they have more talent than the Irish. Charlie Weis will lose this game and his seat is going to get even hotter. The Panthers are going to be sky-high for this one and I see a rout.

$500.00 Take #166 Cal (-3) over Arizona (7 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 14)
After a brief down stretch in the middle of the season the Bears have stepped up and become the team that everyone thought might have an outside shot at winning the Pac-10. Cal will likely be without Jahvid Best. But I think that just means that everyone else on this team is going to step up and play a great game against an Arizona team that is just 1-2 ATS on the road this year. Cal is 4-2 ATS the last six meetings and they are 10-4 ATS in Berkley. Look for an inspired effort out of Cal after a loss last week.
