Picks of the Week - Week 9

[lower14]

Last Week: 2-3

Year to Date: 20-21


Only brief summaries today.......


Northwestern +4 vs. Michigan----Michigan is 3-12 against the spread in their last 15 games as a road favorite, and Michael Hart will only be available sporadically.


Ohio State -3 at Minnesota----the best rushing defense vs. the best rushing offense; defense usually wins these matchups. OSU hasn't lost in Minneapolis since 1981.


Texas Tech -10.5 at Baylor----Baylor can't keep up with the Raider's speed.


Mississippi State +1 at Kentucky----Norwood torches the Wildcats (again) in a battle for the SEC cellar. Norwood has averaged 145 ypg against Kentucky in his career.


South Carolina +14 at Tennessee----Spurrier returns to Knoxville on the day they retire Peyton's #16...Vols are banged up pretty good, riding a two-game losing streak, and they still don't have a clue who is going to play QB.
