Syracuse came within an eyelash of taking Clemson to overtime last week. Syracuse will matchup well against Virginia Tech with its 14th ranked rush offense going against the 68th ranked rush defense of Virginia Tech.

(Saturday, October 23rd )Clemson Vs Pittsburgh

Vegas  Pittsburgh -3    College Football Game Picker  Pittsburgh by 7.03

Clemson will come into this game really banged up with injury issues on both sides of the ball. Pittsburgh has been rolling while beating Ga Tech and Virginia Tech by three touchdowns in their last two games. Pittsburgh will be able to move the ball thru the air with its 6th ranked pass offense going against the 52nd ranked pass defense of Clemson. Clemson has been terrible passing the ball ranking 113th in the country in pass offense. The 86th ranked rush offense of Clemson will struggle against the 16th ranked rush defense of Pittsburgh. Look for Pittsburgh to cover the spread in this one adding to Clemson’s nightmare season.


(Saturday, October 23rd ) Northwestern Vs Michigan

Michigan will be riding a six game winning streak coming into this game. This will be 5th ranked Michigan going against 86th ranked Northwestern. Michigan will have a huge mismatch with its 7th ranked rush offense going against the 124th ranked rush defense of Northwestern. Michigan has had a solid balanced defense this year ranking 29th in rush defense and 24th in pass defense which should be able to shut Northwestern down on offense. Michigan has been undervalued by Vegas all year with a +11 Against the Spread Average per game while Northwestern has been overvalued with a -8 Against the Spread Average per game. Look for Michigan to avoid the trap game (playing undefeated Michigan St. next week)  and cover the spread in this one.

Coastal Carolina matches up very well with Appalachian St. in this rivalry game.

Coastal Carolina will have a huge mismatch with its 3rd ranked rush offense and 21st ranked pass offense going against the 70th ranked rush defense and 80 ranked pass defense of Appalachian St. Coastal Carolina’s defense has been down right stingy only allowing an average of less than 10 points per game in their last three games. Look for Coastal Carolina to cover the spread in this one.


(Thursday, October 21st )La Lafayette Vs Arkansas St.

Vegas  La Lafayette -18    College Football Game Picker  La Lafayette by 26.08

La Lafayette has been on a roll winning 5 straight games while blowing out Appalachian St. in its last game 41-13. Arkansas St. has undoubtedly the worst defense in the nation ranking 130th in rush defense and 128th in pass defense. The one bright spot for Arkansas St his year has been its ability to put points on the board with its pass offense. La Lafayette will be able to slow down the passing game with its 25th ranked pass defense. La Lafayette should be able to run the ball at will with its 33rd ranked rush offense against Arkansas St’s 130th ranked rush defense. Look for this one to get ugly with La Lafayette running away with this one.
