Week 7 Picks & Preview

(1) UofM @ Penn State - This week, the beloved - although struggling - UofM football team is the underdog by 24 points. Coming off the horrific loss to Toledo (who is Nick Moore?), UofM really needs to turn things around. Are they going to win it...absolutely not! Are they going to cover the spread...possible, but not probable. Penn State has been blowing teams out left and right...it's a big spread, but they'll cover. Penn State is my pick.







(2) Colts @ Green Bay - Last week Peyton finally showed up against Baltimore. I think the Colts are officially back. And although Rodgers showed some guts playing through the pain and leading the Packers to a victory over the Squawks, I think Manning is going to pick apart GB's beat up defense and easily cover the 2 point spread. My pick is the Colts



(3) Chargers @ Buffalo - Ever since week one, I've been picking Buffalo and they've only let me down twice in 6 games...not bad for my sleeper team of the year! However, this week I'm going to have to go with the Bolt Boys. At only -1, I can't imagine that the Bolts won't cover that! I think Buffalo will keep it a close game, but the Chargers will come out on top. However, I will put out a disclaimer - this pick could be overshadowed by a selfish motive...both LT & Rivers are on my fantasy team, so I'm always rooting for the Bolts to play well! My pick is San Diego






(4) 49ers @ G-men - The 49ers are favored by 10.5 points, but that's not going to matter to Eli and the Giants. After a disappointing performance in the Dog Pound, the Giants are going to come out swinging. San Fran may have looked impressive against the Lions, but that's not saying much. The reigning champs are going to have a field day at home against the 49ers. My pick is the Giants.





(5) Buckeyes @ Spartans - This is a tough pick for me. I think it's possible that the Spartans will win outright, and they're getting 3 points. They're at home, they're looking good - although we all know that the Spartans have been known to get your hopes up at the beginning of a season and then shit the bed. Aside from that, I'm partially banking this pick on the fact that it's going to be tough for Ohio to come into the Spartan's house and walk away with a victory. My pick is Sparty.




Monday morning I'll review the weekend and see what my record is...football season is such a great time of year!
