I probably agree, but that line's not as good as these:

JUDGE SMAILS LOCK OF THE WEEK:
Colorado -8 @ Baylor

OTHER SURE THINGS:
Cincinnati +6 @ Rutgers
Miami -10 @ N Carolina
Wake Forest -8 @ Duke
Ohio -5.5 @ Buffalo
Tulsa -2.5 @ UTEP
Utah St +39 @ Hawaii

1% commission is all I ask..

2 out of 7 ain't bad. Better than Santos 0 out of 1, especially since I hit my Lock of the Week. Stay tuned for more solid picks for the upcoming week.

Is the Santos lock of the week 0 for 5?

I'd do better relying on Chris Berman's NFL picks? (how terrible do you have to be to having a losing record picking winners in the NFL, and not even using the line).

17.5 and they win by 17. That sucks. That's why you don't gamble, kids.

Santos lock is now 1-3. I'll get back, don't worry.

I told ya'll I would take Texas over OU, and I was right. 11 was too high of a line.

Judge Smails LOCK OF THE WEEK:

Jay Santos will go 1-3 this week, hitting only on Tulsa. BC and Akron will, however, win outright.

There are 2 lines that really stand out to me. My real lock of the week is:

@ Colorado St -3.5 over Air Force

I seriously had to stare at that line for like 5 minutes to make sure I had it right. I know Air Force is still middle of the MWC at best, but Colorado St has lost 12 in a row!!!. Throw out last year, and they've still lost 5 in a row, including at home to San Diego St.

Air Force by 10+.

Fresno -11 @ Idaho.

Again, Fresno's not gangbusters, but there's no way Idaho stays within 11 of them. If they do, the WAC sucks even worse than I suspect. And I suspect the WAC sucks royally.

If this was supposed to say Tulsa -13.5, then:


If not,





This is fun.

1-4 now.

Pick for this week is East Carolina -4 at home against NC State. But you guys might want to go with NC State.
