I'll get the overall points updated later on today. Wanted to get my picks in in case I couldn't get both finished.

South Carolina + 19.5 lock

Illinois + 10.5

Northwestern +7.5

That over under in the northwestern Michigan is 34 lol. I think that's Way too high even though it's one of the lowest o/u u will see.. 7-3 Michigan would not surprise me at all.

Appreciate the SC love, Rude. Bolder than thou. For those who hadn't heard about the classy act by LSU... Because of the flooding in Columbia they moved the game to Baton Rouge. So the marching band for LSU is learning the gamecock fight song to play opening the game since it's supposed to be a SC home game. Also the proceeds after cost are being donated to flood relief in SC. I hate them just a little less now......

Clemson -17 lock

Spartans +6.5

Penn st +19

Unfortunately u got only 6.5 points vs early pickers who got 7.5. That's a monster difference and I'm middle of the road with a possible push. Unfortunately Michigan is going to trample Michigan state. Harbaugh's D will have their ears pinned back today and he's been feeding them raw meat all week. No way I'd ever want to play for harbaugh but you cannot deny his results. Imagine if he was coaching USC with all the talent they have. Holy shit. But then again would Their stable of 5-star recruits want to put up with his insanity. Maybe he needed less heralded recruits and guys not used to winning for his style to work. It's funny that people have said that Florida coach is a lock for coach of the year, but losing will Grier, I think harbaugh may be the front runner. This game will tell if he leads the way or not. Michigan 27-6. Btw these idiot announcers are saying I'm picking Michigan to upset Michigan state. Ummm they are a touchdown favorite.

How bout them Buckeyes !! ...

20 straight wins and counting ...

45-3 record in last 3.5 years ...

and covered the spread ...

looks like JT Barrett is back behind center ...

Took urban long enough to put the right QB back there huh? Damn he was stubborn. Everyone saw that TJ should have been QB for weeks. He's lucky he didn't let his stubbornness lead to a loss. Ohio state finally looked like a team that could contend for a national title and they covered a spread.

That being said, Baylor is by far the best team in football. They have only scored less than 62 points once and that was a 56 point offensive effort. Not sure I've ever seen an offense that good ever. Possibly the best in NCAA history.

On another note, Michigan state also looked good for the 1st time this year. They should have lost, but they outplayed Michigan all game on both sides of the ball even as Michigan got a 9 point lead. Looks like they only play up or down to their competition. Michigan state covered their 1st spread of the year. Your welcome state fans. I caused that picking Michigan.

Alabama's defense is back. Bama has been turnover prone this whole year averaging over 2 a game, but still dominated a tough A&M. Bamas secondary is one of the best they have ever had. If you are in a passing situation against them, you are in a lot of trouble. They are so freaking fast and gang tackle like mad. But they still have a brutal remaining schedule and can't afford to lose any.

Florida is legitimately very good. Even losing their WB, they hung with LSU at Death Valley which may be the hardest place to play in football. Fournette is the best RB in football and it's not even close. If you haven't watched him run, you need to. He's a power back with 4.4 speed and amazing quickness. He's impossible to tackle from the side. The guy made amazing run after run vs a very tough Florida run D.

Standards running game is dominant. Their RB(Christian Mccaffrey) impressed the shit out of me. Turns out his dad was star NFL wideout Ed Mccaffrey, so he's got the pedigree. He will give fournette a run for heisman. So far it's those 2 and baylors QB who are locks for top 3.

Toledo is a team I would not want to play. For non power 5, they are the best there has been in a while and are decimating the competition. Memphis also shocked ole miss who's banged up O-line from the Bama game has allowed non stop pressure on their QB. The best lines make the best teams. Stanford and LSU both have dominating lines and their running stats reflect that and ole Miss's now sucks. What a fall.
