NCAA Football Winning Picks

FTT Nation,

College football is upon us. Time to dust off that online sports book account (of course you wouldn't bet real money, that would be illegal) and make some bets this weekend. Here are my 5 college picks of the week:

Virginia Tech -27.5 at home over E. Carolina. This will be an emotional game for the Hokies and a team that has a shot at the BCS will want to pile on some points.

Virginia -3.5 away over Wyoming. I'd be willing to give up to 10 on this game. Thanks Vegas.

Oregon -16 at home over Houston. I'd love this game at -14, but the Ducks should win by 20.

Georgia Tech +1.5 away over Notre Dame. Any coach that goes to the lengths that Weis has over the secrecy of who the quarterback will be spells trouble in my book. Should be a long year for the Domers.

LOCK OF THE WEEK

Mizzou -4.5 in St. Louis on neutral field over Illinois. The Illini are still very young and Mizzou has a solid shot to win the Big 12 North this year.

RESULTS UPDATE:

The Truth goes 3-2 for the weekend. Lays 50 tokens on the first four games and 100 tokens on the Lock of the Week. Ends up 81.80 for the weekend.
