9. #(ORV) BOISE STATE -5.5 AT COLORADO STATE (6-4)
BOISE STATE TRAVELS TO CSU AND IS ON A ROLL, HAVING WON 5 IN A ROW. THE RAMS STARTED THE SEASON 6-2, BUT HAVE DROPPED THE LAST TWO TO AIRFORCE AND WYOMING, SO MOMENTUM IS WITH BSU. CSU, EVEN AT HOME, WILL NEED MORE POINTS.
COSTANZA PICK – COLORADO STATE.

What does ORV mean?

WEEK 11

8 NOV (WEDNESDAY)

11. (8-1) TOLEDO -6 AT OHIO (7-2)
1st trip to athens for the rockets since 2010. and it's a revenge trip... ou broke ut's 12 game win streak last yr 31-26. toledo is also 7-1-1 ats lately as road chalk, but just 1-7 ats as away favorites vs teams off back/back wins. bobcats are 5-0 ats lately as home dogs, 7-1 ats getting points off scoring 35+. rockets are also 1-4 ats the last 5 games after playing northern illinois. plus (cfb nerd alert #1) cfb home dogs who've scored 40+ their last 3 games are 19-4 ats vs foes off a 3+ win. ohio university.

10 NOV (FRIDAY)

1. #9 (8-1) WASHINGTON -7 AT #(ORV*) (6-3) STANFORD
love was not in the air for stanford at washington state last week. rb bryce love was held to 69 yds in a 24-21 loss. but the cardinal still has a shot at the pac 12 title game. this is the 1st time in 4 yrs su is getting pts at home (7-0 ats the last 7 games that's happened), plus it's a revenge spot after getting drubbed 44-6 last yr in seattle. uw is 11-34 su/17-28 ats on the road vs .500+ foes. and the last 11 times the trees have lost su as a favorite, they've covered the next game... all 11. stanford.


11NOV

2. #1 (9-0) ALABAMA -14.5 AT #18 MISSISSIPPI STATE (7-2)
even tho it was physical, even tho lsu played tough, watching that game last saturday night i never had the feeling the tide was in danger of losing. but i wonder about this week, especially with alabama's d being a little banged up (2 lb's, cb fitzpatrick) vs the tigers. last yr msu lost big, 51-3, to the tide, so i like the revenge spot. but their qb (fitzgerald?) looked putrid in road losses at uga/auburn in late sept. he was much better 2 weeks ago at texas a&m... and obviously the bulldogs were peeking ahead last week letting umass hang around. that buys some point value here, even though alabama has been outstanding (13-5 ats) as road chalk since '15. history is also on the tide's side; msu has scored more than 10 just once the last 9 times they've played alabama. but late in the season, unbeaten teams historically have a tougher time covering games (witness the tide vs lsu last week); since 2000, week 10 undefeated league road favorites -6/more are just 4-21 ats. bulldogs are also 6-1 ats getting 10+ at home. despite those stupid cowbells, i think this one stays interesting to the end. mississippi state.


3. #13 (7-2) MICHIGAN STATE +16 AT #11 OHIO STATE (7-2)
this has to qualify as the most bizarre line of the week, maybe the year, considering the fact that the visitor has won su the last 6 games in this series, that no game has been decided by more than 12 in 9 yrs, and what tosu did last week (don't want to talk about it). sparty is 9-1 ats lately w/big 10 revenge (bucks won 17-16 last yr), 8-3-1 ats as road dogs, and has covered the last 4 at the 'shoe. meyer has been very good in his head coaching career off a loss (17-8 ats) but osu is just 7-14 ats as home chalk the last 3 yrs. tho msu's d has improved over the year, the irish did rush for 182 on sparty back in sept. (that stat is for bamorin-ha), just not enough for me to give 16. michigan state.


4. #2 (9-0) GEORGIA -2.5 AT #10 AUBURN (7-2)
war eagle may be the most intriguing team in the country w/uga and alabama on the horizon. 121st mtg in the deep south's oldest rivalry. dawgs pulled off an outright upset in '16 (13-7, +8) and has won 9 of the last 11 in the series. 2 teams who run well and defend the run well. tigers are 12-2 ats w/revenge vs foes off back/back wins, 7-1 ats as sec home dogs of less than 13. georgia qb jake fromm has impressed this year, and he's allowed them to become more balanced on offense. but au qb jarrett stidham has his team averaging 200+ yds in the air and on the ground. and the bulldogs have that same trend history i mentioned above w/alabama (league road favorite late in the season). should be a great one to watch. auburn.


5. #8 (8-1) TCU +7.5 AT #5 OKLAHOMA (8-1)
since tcu joined the big 12, the visitor in this series is 4-1 ats. sooners have to bounce back from a wild bedlam win vs, supposedly, a much better tcu d. but the horned frogs have been sliced and diced by pass-heavy opponents (smu, okla st, wvu). still, tcu is 6-1 ats as road dogs, 8-0 ats as +7/more w/revenge (ou won 52-46 last yr). sooners are 11-4 ats lately as home chalk, but 1-4 ats off back/back su-ats wins. no doubt in my mind that baker mayfield is the heisman favorite right now, especially off 596 yds/5 td passes. but those are tough numbers to repeat. texas christian.


6. #(ORV) (6-3) NCSTATE -3 AT BOSTON COLLEGE (5-4)
wolfpack is off physical back/back games (nd, clemson) and now face a physical bc team who's won 4 of 5 and covered 6 straight games by an average of nearly 3 td's/contest. plus the eagles are off a bye, and home dogs off a bye off a win are 105-60-5 ats since '80. but, home dogs off 3 su wins, all as a dog, are just 1-9 ats vs teams off a loss since '80. nc state has revenge (lost to be 21-14 last yr) and is 7-1 ats as road chalk the last 4 years. north carolina state.


7. #25 (6-3) IOWA +13 AT #6 WISCONSIN (9-0)
so are the hawks for real? they've covered 5 straight in madison vs the badgers. they're also an amazing 11-0 ats as 6+ dogs vs .750/better opponents,7-3 ats as double digit dogs, and 7-1 ats on the road w/revenge (lost 17-9 to uw in '16). badgers are just 7-11 ats as home chalk since '15, they have a revenger vs michigan next week, and they also are in that late season favorite role while undefeated. road team has won 6 straight in this series. no letdown here. iowa.


8. #3 (8-1) NOTRE DAME -3 AT #7 U-MIAMI (8-0)
most meaningful game between these two in 3 decades. last yr irish pulled off a 30-27 upset win over the canes in an otherwise forgettable season. this yr they've bulled their way behind rb josh adams/run game. both d's here have been good overall, and very good vs the pass, but imho miami is vulnerable to the run game (have allowed 200+ rush yds in 3 games this yr). nd is 3-0 ats as road chalk this year, while it's been a couple years since the canes were getting points at home in joe robbie/pro player/dolphins/land shark/dolphin/sun life/new miami/hard rock stadium. not a fan of abandoning unbeaten home dogs, but i think the team w/the stronger run game/defense can withstand the hostile crowd. notre dame.


9. #(ORV) BOISE STATE -5 AT COLORADO STATE (6-4)
after a shaky start the broncos are now 7-2. bsu is 14-10 ats as road chalk, but 1-9 ats off back/back su/ats wins vs league opponents. csu is 1-10 ats vs foes off back/back wins. boise state.


10. #12 (7-2) OKLAHOMA STATE -7 AT #24 IOWA STATE (6-3)
after 3 upsets in 4 weeks, isu stumbled at wvu last week. cyclones are 5-2-1 ats lately as home dogs, they are in a revenge spot (31-38 at stillwater a yr ago) where they're 8-2 ats lately, catch the cowboys off a demoralizing loss to ou, and osu is 0-5 ats the last 5 years the week after playing the sooners. i'll take the td. iowa state.


12. #19 (8-2) WASHINGTON STATE -1 AT UTAH (5-4)
utes stopped a 4 game losing streak by crushing ucla 48-17 while the cougars slipped by stanford 24-21 to keep their pac 12-north hopes alive. utah is 2-0 ats getting pts at home, while wsu is 0-5 ats giving pts away from pullman. i also believe washington state is the only team in the country who's playing for the 11th consecutive week. utah.


13. #23 (6-3) WEST VIRGINIA +1.5 AT KANSAS STATE (5-4)
mountaineers beat ksu 17-16 last yr in morgantown. wvu is 1-5 ats as road dogs, but cats are just 3-5-1 ats as home chalk, and just 2-6 ats off scoring 40+. plus ksu has been outgained in all of their last 6 games by an average of 159 yds. west virginia.


14. (6-3) VIRGINIA +11.5 AT LOUISVILLE (5-4)
hard to believe that one of the most disappointing teams in cfb this year, who's only covered 2 of 9 games, is still a double digit favorite over a .500+ acc foe. cards are just 7-15 ats as home chalk, 0-5 ats as a favorite off a bye week. uva is 8-3-1 ats getting points on the road, 7-1 ats after allowing 35+ in a game. all 3 games between these two have been decided by a td/less. cavs are also 11-4 ats vs acc teams who come in off a loss. virginia.

Mark, for some reason I originally had Iowa State as a 7 point dog too, but I went back to Wally original posting and Ia. St was a 6.5 dog. you might want to check your numbers. I think there was only one push in this weeks games, NC and BC.

mountaineers beat ksu 17-16 last yr in morgantown. wvu is 1-5 ats as road dogs, but cats are just 3-5-1 ats as home chalk, and just 2-6 ats off scoring 40+. plus ksu has been outgained in all of their last 6 games by an average of 159 yds. west virginia.


14. (6-3) VIRGINIA +11.5 AT LOUISVILLE (5-4)
hard to believe that one of the most disappointing teams in cfb this year, who's only covered 2 of 9 games, is still a double digit favorite over a .500+ acc foe. cards are just 7-15 ats as home chalk, 0-5 ats as a favorite off a bye week. uva is 8-3-1 ats getting points on the road, 7-1 ats after allowing 35+ in a game. all 3 games between these two have been decided by a td/less. cavs are also 11-4 ats vs acc teams who come in off a loss. virginia.

I guess an Ohio State elite who is used to favoritism in all things college football thinks he can get away with keeping a Wednesday night game that was only picked on by half the participants and taken off the board by Walt while not even bothering to pick on the legitimate game between Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech...............

7-6-1 - Can't complain anytime when over .500.

, you know Gator, where you and I went to school, 5-6-2 all added up to 13 but I guess for a Buckeye grad when you have 15 games to pick from, one of them is withdrawn, leaving 14 games, it somehow still ends up being 13. Who knew?

I didn't either, until earlier today when mscott said he had 2 pushes. Several of the spreads changed, but OklaState/IowaState is the only one that affects some people's picks.

The Costanza theory...... definitely should have gone with that on some picks...
