College Football Play of the Week: TCU at Utah

TCU at Utah is the game most people are pointing at today.  One of these unbeaten teams will no longer be mentioned in any talk of a BCS title game.

TCU's defense has been outstanding.  They are only giving up 8.6 pts a game.  Their closest game was a 30-21 win over a ranked Oregon State.  Their resume also includes a 45-10 win over Baylor

Utah scores points in droves.  They average 45 points a game and put up 68 at Iowa State.

This will be a close game, and with the Utes getting 5 at home, I love Utah.

Go with the Utes.

* Bonus Pick  -  Iowa State is getting 17 today at home against Nebraska.  It will be the last meeting for the two teams as members of the same conference.  They could meet up in years to come in a bowl game, but this is it as Nebraska is leaving the Big XII.  Iowa State shocked Nebraska last year in Lincoln, ISU will stay within 17 this year in Ames.   Grab the Cyclones.

Week 5: NFL Play of the Week

The Chargers are an inconsistent team, and my NFL picks have been consistent so far this season, consistently awful.

San Diego goes on the road to Oakland today to take on the Raiders.  They are only laying 6 1/2 to another bad Raiders team.  Should be an easy cover for P. Rivers and Co. 

I also like the total in this game at 45.  Go with the under as I don't see Oakland putting many points on the board.

Take the Chargers and the under to win big today.

NFL Week 4: Play of the Week

It's week 4 and I'm still trying to get on the scoreboard.

I think it will happen with Tennessee this week.  The Titans are -7 at home against Denver.  The Titans will cover that 7.  I don't like the total of 44 in this game.

I do like the over in the Bengals/Browns game.  It's 37 in this battle of Ohio.  Take the over!

It's the first week where the byes come into play.  Should be a fun and profitable week.

Week 3: NFL Play of the Week

I'm trying to get on the winning track here.

Let's hope the Redskins rebound off a tough loss.

They should beat the Rams by more than 4 and go over the 38 1/2 total.

Take the Redskins and the over for the 4:15 game today.

Week 2: NFL Play of the Week

Let's try and rebound this week.

Patriots -3 vs. Jets.  Take this Pats, this could be ugly.  The Jets still have some problems and it's going to take a few weeks to get them ironed out.

The Patriots have the "take no prisoners" attitude right now and they won't be stopped this week.  Brady to Moss, Brady to Welker, Brady to whoever.  We'll see a bunch of that on Sunday and Rex Ryan and the rest of his team will have to go back to the drawing board.

Take the Patriots with no worries.
