EhhTee's Picks (Week 5)

Last week was a mediocre week in which I actually did better against the line at 4-3 (12-15 overall) than in my picks at 3-4 (18-10 overall). It's been an up and down season so far and now that we have 4 weeks under our belt, I hope I can get a better feel for how these teams will match up.

This Week's Picks:


Clemson @ Maryland
Line: Clemson -13

Maryland is just plain terrible. Clemson should cover by two touchdowns.

Pick: Clemson
Score: Clemson 35 - Maryland 10

Michigan @ MSU
Line: Meeechigan -2.5

MSU spent this week whining about respect. MSU won't get it and will be pummeled.

Pick: UM
Score: UM 55 - MSU 17

Virginia @ North Carolina
Line: UNC -14

Can Virginia win a game this year? Probably, but not against UNC.

Pick: UNC
Score: UVA 10 - UNC 31

East Carolina @ Marshall
Line: ECU -3

This will give us a good understanding as to how good ECU is.

Pick: Marshall
Score: ECU 10 - Marshall 27

LSU @ Georgia
Line: Georgia -2.5

LSU looked terrible last week and probably should have lost. Will UGA be able to maintain at home? Yes, but close.

Pick: Georgia
Score: LSU 21 - UGA 24

Florida St. @ Boston College
Line: Florida St. -5

Boston College may be better than expected.

Pick: Boston College
Score: FSU 17 - BC 21

Oklahoma @ Miami
Line: Oklahoma -7

Upset special! Everyone's already down on Miami for the loss against Tech last weekend. How much of that was the weather? I think it was a significant factor.

Pick: Miami
Score: OU 15 - UM 34
