Pigskin Picks- College version



Here are the bets I'm looking at for Saturday:

Rutgers -2.5 vs South Florida. The Bulls are winless on the road this season. Entering the season, Rutgers had the longest current drought of seasons without making a bowl game. Now there's an outside chance that they could be in a BCS game.

Tennessee +9 at Notre Dame. The defense is going to have to come up big for the Volunteers. This is really the last chance Tenn has to salvage the season. There's also the added bonus that if Tennessee wins, then Scoop Jackson and Jason Whitlock will have another week of 'Notre Dame is racist' columns to write, and that's always fun.

Oregon -2.5 vs Cal. I'll be honest- with Dennis Dixon getting his first start at QB for the Ducks, I have no clue how this game will go. But anytime I have an excuse to post pics of the Oregon cheerleaders, I'm going for it.

Stanford +34.5 at USC. The scary thing is, I might have to buy a point just to push this spread over 5 touchdowns.

Iowa at Northwestern Over 60.5. This game has the potential of being a quadruple overtime 58-56 game that nobody watches on ESPN Classic the following Monday.

Gotta talk about Scoop - did you read the column where he called Phil Jackson racist for his suggestion that hip-hop culture leads to short attention spans and thuggery? http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=jackson/051101

He then disproves Jackson by writing a rambling column with no true center and calling the coach a bitch. Well done, Scoop!
