NCAA Football Winning Picks: Week 2

Time for this weeks NCAA football picks. For the season we are 3-2 and up 81.80 "tokens." Apart from knowing that Michigan and Notre Dame both suck (wow, looking forward to that match up next week. I think it comes on at snooze thirty) the experts here at FTT have learned much from last week’s results. As always, first four picks are laying 50 tokens and the lock of the week is laying 100 tokens.

Rutgers -16 at home over Navy. Rutgers got zero respect in all of the preseason polls and they’re pissed. Time to beat up on another cupcake.

Penn St. -17.5 at home over Notre Dame. Now I have to be honest here, this one scares me. But from what I saw from ND last week, I don’t have any hope for their winning anytime soon. And Claussen will start his first game in front of over 100,000 loud PSU fans. Good luck Jimmy. Make sure you show the Penn State D Line all of those rings you won in high school. I would take the Over here – only 43.5, but I’m not sure if Notre Dame can score.

Georgia -3.5 at home over South Carolina. Look for the Dawgs to hang another loss on the Ol’ Ball Coach. Georgia beat USC 18-0 at USC last year – and they’re even better this year. I like UGA by 10-14 in this one.

Tennessee -10.5 at home over Southern Miss. After the Beatdown in Berkeley last week (the Vols gave up 45 points) look for a quick start from the Vols. Coach Fulmer will want to prime the tanks with Florida and Georgia both coming up in the next three weeks. Tennessee wins this easily.

LOCK OF THE WEEK

Mizzou -6 at Ole Miss. I’m going to keep riding the Mizzou gravy train until the odds makers come to their senses. Mizzou can put up a lot of points – it comes down to their defense. If they can stop the run on Saturday, they’ll win by 2 touchdowns.
RESULTS UPDATE:
4-1 for the weekend, 7-3 for the year. Brings in 227.25 tokens and up 309.05 for the year. Doubles up in two weeks.
