NCAA/NFL Picks 11/8 & 11/9

It was an even week for me last weekend.  I went 1-2 in my college picks and 2-1 in my pro picks.  Even isn’t bad but what a waste to bet the weekend and be at zero.  For the season, 13-10-1 NCAA and 14-8-2 NFL.  Rice killed me last week.  Not only did I lose them straight, I had them in a parlay and I would have hit a three teamer if not for them.

NCAA:

Texas (-27.5) beat Baylor 45-21 (L).  Colt McCoy had 5 TD’s but Baylor scored a late touchdown to ruin this play.

Texas Tech (-3.5) beat Oklahoma State 56-20 (W).  Tech had this in control the whole time.  Graham Harrell had 456 yards passing and 6 TD’s.  Can you say Heisman Trophy?

Rice (-9.5) beat Army 38-31 (L).  Thanks Rice, for letting Army score on a 43 yard run with four minutes to go and not only ruining this play but my parlay.  I think it’s twice in consecutive weeks that a team named the Owls (Temple) screwed me.

 

NFL:

San Diego (-15 beat Kansas City 20-19 (W).  Too many points for an iffy Charger team.  Tyler Thigpen 266 yards, 3 TD’s and no INT’s.  Chiefs, say hello to your new quarterback.  The Brady Croyle era has ended.

Carolina (-10) beat Oakland 17-6 (W).  This game wasn’t as easy as it should have been.  So much for Jake Delhomme having a huge day.  He had 72 yards passing with 4 INT’s.  How did they win.  Oh yeah, they played the Raiders.  Oakland tried a field goal as time expired for what reason?  If they would have hit it and broken this play I would have shot the television.

Arizona (-9.5) beat San francisco 29-24 (L).  Kurt Warner (MVP?) had a good game but San Fransisco was up for this game.
