Betting Guide: Week 6
Alright, due to some complications the podcast never came last night. I know all of you were patiently waiting so I am going to run through our picks right now, and we might record the podcast a little later.
Below as usual we have 5 picks including the
Picks will be short and sweet so you can get to making some money, if Grouper is alive we will go in depth on these in the pod
**********************************************************************************
Michigan State +4.5 @ Michigan
Let me start this off by saying I do not like this pick because my heart says no. Rule #1 don't bet with your heart. Grouper brought this to the table and we are going to roll with it. He thinks MSU wins I think UM wins, so let's just say Michigan wins by 3 and everyone is happy.
PS Denard for President
Pick - Michigan State
Auburn -6 @ Kentucky
Cameron Newton is a monster stud at QB for Auburn, they are on a roll and I don't think Kentucky can do anything about it.
Pick - Auburn
UCLA +7.5 @ California
The Pistol formation has been red hot for UCLA in recent weeks, and they are having a lot of success running the football. For reference Nevada runs the same system and against Cal this year it worked to the tune of 497 yards in a blowout win for Nevada. Bet the Pistol.
Pick - UCLA
Alabama -7 @ South Carolina
Bama is on a roll and they are the best team in college football right now. They are playing a South Carolina team that has looked good this year, but Alabama presents SC with a lot of issues, mainly stopping Bama from scoring and scoring on Bama...
Pick - Alabama
and now...

Texas A&M vs Arkansas -5 (Cowboys Stadium)
We love Ryan Mallett and we really like Arkansas, they have one loss and it was a tough one against Alabama. Texas A&M has one loss and it is a tough one to Oregon State. Advantage Arkansas. We think that Arkansas can jump on A&M early and often and easily cover this spread.

Trick Play Friday
Not a trick play, not by design, but really sweet...
Quick note, we do have all of the picks for you and we will be putting them up a little later today so you have time to call your bookie.
Podcast will also be coming a little later tonight if Paulie and I can get our lives together...
Stay tuned for the picks, we got some good ones for you this week.
Also, in case you missed it Nebraska QB Taylor Martinez put on an absurd show last night as he beat Kansas State by rushing for over 240 yards and throwing for 123. This kid has been killing it all year long, and being the only game last night got a lot of attention for it. Swaggy...
Wake Up With Hits
Dusted this one off for ya today, way to throw your RB into danger QB. Remember when "hi-fi" on the screen was a good thing. Like "dude Timmy's dad has a sick camera look at how clear it is". Then when you were looking at film with the coach it would take five minutes to figure out who was who.
Kid gets his head knocked off...

Wake Up With Hits
First off, this is the kind of injury you don't want to post, but people were and will be talking about this at least until Saturday so we've got to put it up for you.
Warning at around the :11 second mark you can see that his leg is completely broken in half...hopefully he is on the road to a quick recovery
Bonus hit that won't make you puke at your desk...
Now let's see if Grouper has anything to say about this or if he even notices...Colgate kid getting rocked, great hit

Player to Watch: Greg Jones, LB, Michigan State
With a big game between Michigan State and Michigan coming up this weekend, let's take a look at MSU's best player...
A Senior this year Jones has the Spartans undefeated heading into their big game against Denard and company this weekend. Jones is off to an incredible start as he already has 40 tackles, 2 sacks and 2 interceptions. Jones is the unquestioned leader of the MSU defense and the way he is playing right now he will be seeing a lot of awards coming his way at the end of the year.
(you don't want to get hit by this guy)
Greg Jones brings a lot to the table as far as talents, he moves very well and is extremely instinctive. He ran a 4.6 his senior year of HS and you can bet that 4 years later he is in the 4.5 range which is good for LB's. We can not strees his instincts enough, you can't teach them and Jones seems to always be around the ball. He will have a tough task in trying to slow down the elusive Denard Robinson this weekend, and it will be a great match up to watch.
Looking forward to the NFL, Jones will certainly be one of the top LB's heading into the draft. We have told you about his talents, but scouts obviously also look at negatives as well. Jones is not a huge MLB, and would certainly be undersized a bit in the NFL. He also has yet to show if his top end speed is as good as it needs to be. Nevertheless this kid is extremely talented and you will be hearing his name a lot more this season.
Wake Up With Hits
This dudes first name is Mister, that's probably a mistake by the parents but who cares when you can lay the lumber like this...
This is also our first attempt to make "wake up with hits" as current as possible, I love posting grainy vid's of dudes from the early 90's getting lit up but I'm sure you guys grew tired of it long ago...

Top 25 Recap: Week 5
(LaMichael James brought his name into the Heisman conversation this weekend)After a big weekend of games let's take a look at the Top 25...
The top 3 shifted as Oregon leaped Boise State into the #3 spot after their win over Stanford. Bama and Ohio state stayed at the top with Bama pulling away after their win over Florida. TCU stays in the #5 spot and Boise State is now #4.
This week we also saw three top programs drop out of the polls. Texas lost to Oklahoma, Penn State lost to Iowa and USC lost to Washington. All three teams were dropped from the top 25. I would imagine this hasn't happened in a long time.
All of the top 10 teams are undefeated and the bottom half looks like this:
6.) Oklahoma, 7.) Nebraska, 8.) Auburn, 9.) Arizona, 10.) Utah
Alabama is clearly the best team in college football as they received all but 2 of the first place votes. Ohio State got one and the same guy who has voted for Boise
State all year, did again as the Broncos got 1 first place vote.
After Bama it is pretty wide open, a lot of teams look really good, and this is shaping up to be a great year.
Stanford forgot to cover and or show up for the second half vs Oregon and we went 3-2 with our bets this weekend. Still up so go buy yourself something nice, you earned it.
Paulie Grouper has promised some content this week, but don't expect anything because this is probably what he is doing...
Wake up With Hits
Matt Ryan getting lit up while at BC. I had never seen this hit before, helmet coming off is icing on the cake...
