I have Friday Night Picks up just so you don’t miss them. Please note, the following picks are ranked in order of starting time.
Kansas State is rolling along. A steady ground attack to wear down their opponents and facing an Iowa State team that just got beat up in their annual contest with Iowa. Don’t pay attention to last year’s single point loss by Iowa State, I see this at a 6 point win by Kansas State.
Take Kansas State -3.5 v. Iowa State
Temple has squeaked by mid-level competition, but comes face-to-face with the offensive weapons at UConn’s disposal. UConn on the road and only a -5.5 favorite. I’m going two units on this play.
Take UConn -5.5 at Temple
The Huskers take their first trip to the Huskies since the early 90′s. While this game had pre-season billing as a strong matchup – and it will be Nebraska’s first real competition of the season – the week 1 loss by Washington has tempered that a bit. My concerns with Washington is an offensive line that doesn’t have the ability make holes and going against the Huskers defense that can absolutely dominate at the line is worrisome.
Take Nebraska -3 at Washington
