 OK, College ball fans - another week of great games awaits. My thoughts right now? That damn Big Ten! It's pretty tough to figure out. This weekend will either help to sort that mess out, or make it even worse. Here's my prescription for this week...
Iowa +3.5 at Michgan -3.5GET ACTION ON THIS GAME NOW - CLICK HERE A huge Big "Eleven" matchup. Iowa's offense has been bruising so far this year, and their running game will have to be in top form for this road game in the Big House. Michigan hasn't done anything spectacular this year, but all they do is come out on top, they just win. I like another win for this lunchpail crew as the Wolverine D gets it done by stuffing the run and QB John Navarre and RB BJ Askew run the offense. ************************************* This Years Picks and Predictions are sponsored by:

Penn State +4.5 at Ohio State +4.5GET ACTION ON THIS GAME NOW - CLICK HERE For the Doc's money, this one is a can't miss great game. Two power teams with tons of tradition meeting head on. Penn State's D is better than they showed at the end of last week's game against Michigan. I love the balance they have on offense as well. Sure Ohio States RB Maurice Clarrett is a stud, but I see Penn States QB Zach Mills being the difference here. The Doc says Penn State pulls the upset as road dogs. ************************************* Ever dreamed about a place on South Beach??

Sunday, Oct. 27Tampa Bay -6.5 at Carolina +6.5Both teams come in off big losses. Both lost thier starters at quarterback. Tampa turns to Bills cast off Rob Johnson, Carolina turns to Chris Weinke - oh no - hes hurt too, so they now turn to rookie QB Randy Fasani. The Cats were shut out last week and will find no love from the battered Bucs this week either. Gone is the balance that Carolina had which allowed them to go 3-0 at the start of the season. As good as RB Lamar Smith is, he just cant do it without balance. So unless Fasani comes out and plays like Marino - and what are the odds of that - Tampa will get things back on track behind Rob Johnson, which may be an improvement over the way Brad Johnson was playing thus far this season. ************************************* Tennessee -6.5 at Cincinnati +6.5Last week was a very good week for Bengal fans. They didnt lose. It was thier bye week. Every year there is a Cincinnati out there, a team which just looks awful, so awful that you wonder if they will ever win a game. Yet no one since the 1976 (Pre-Free agency expansion) Buccaneers has gone winless over an entire season. What that says is that someone, somewhere will be upset by the Bengals. The Bengals? Someone check the "proof" of my water. Against McNair, George and the Titans?? Well thats why they call them upsets. NO I haven't gone compeletly insane, I will just say that its close this week... ************************************* Arizona +9.5 at San Francisco -9.5Sure this looks like a mismatch on paper. The reality is that this is a really big game for both these two. That is an awfully big point spread for a battle of division leaders isn't it? Think back to the Raiders/Chargers game last week. hmmmm. Sure I know 'Zona is real ugly, and Jake Plummer sucks, and they should have lost last week, yeah, and all that. But they are 4-2(!) and really not given ANY respect at all. They could earn a bunch this week though. If they win this, they are alone atop the NFC West. (repeat that and try not to laugh) While they probably wont win this game, they have a pretty good defense, and David Boston is right there with Terrell Owens as far as playmakers go, but Plummer could use a lesson or two from Niner QB Jeff Garcia, who will bail the Niners out of this with a W anyway. ************************************* Denver +2.5 at New England -2.5Now who was it that said New Engl. has too much to overcome to repeat. Oh yeah ME! Well they are now third in thier division, and losers of three in a row. I know its early still, but if the Pats are going to make a run, they will need to stop this losing skid. Denver faces a consecutive tough road game. That might be good for Griese who isnt boo'd every time he throws an incomplete pass. It might not be far from that for Brady if the Pats dont get it going early at home, the Broncos Defense will be tough enough without having to endure jeers from your own fans. Are NE fans that fickle? We'll see... ************************************* Houston +10.5 at Jacksonville -10.5I made the mistake of taking Houston with a double digit point spread last week, and while looking pretty good for 3 quarters, I was again reminded of why you always bet against expansion teams. Houston might be good for one cover a month, and they done got two in September already. RB Fred Taylor should have a huge day for you fantasy freaks if you have him that is... ************************************* Indianapolis at Washington EHard to get a read on this line - started as Indy favored by two, and then moved to Wash by 2, then down to 1, now back to E and its ONLY TUESDAY. Washington is mired in a QB "controversy" - well not really, they have no qb, so there is no controversy. Otherwise they have a team which, like Pitt on Monday, can give the Colts trouble with thier defense and blitzes. If they get RB Stephen Davis going they can open up the passing lanes for... for, ... Danny Wuerful, back once again this week. Well, if Tommy Maddox could light them up - why not Wuerful? Sure it could happen.... ************************************* Monday, Oct. 28

 Notre Dame +10.5 at Florida State -10.5GET ACTION ON THIS GAME NOW - CLICK HERE Funny thing, but Florida State won the Doc over in their loss to Miami two weeks back. For a program that has done nothing but win for the last decade or so, it's odd that it took a loss for them to prove to me that they really are an elite team this season. Tons of talent on both sides of the ball, period. Their one weak spot is the secondary, but the Doc says that ND can't take advantage of that as long as they have an option QB running the West Coast offense. They wont be able to just pound it like they did against Air Force. ND does have a talented defense though and they will hang in there and keep the game close. FSU is just too tough in Tallahassee, even for the gritty, resilient Irish. ************************************* This Years Picks and Predictions are sponsored by:

Southern Cal -1.5 at Oregon +1.5GET ACTION ON THIS GAME NOW - CLICK HERE This is one of the great Pac 10 matchups of the year. It could be quite a display with QBs Carson Palmer vs QB Jason Fife. Has all the makings of a classic western shootout. Oregon's D was exposed last week against Arizona State. Sun Devils quarterback Andrew Walter threw for a school-record 536 yards and four touchdowns in leading the comeback. USC has lost some tough games this year as well, but have loads of talent and match up well with Oregon. I'm giving the nod to SC because of that tougher defense. Thier offense behind Palmer will be able to control the ball and keep Oregon's O off the field enough to survive the shootout! *************************************
