Another tough loss. Oklahoma dominated that game statistically but Stanford hung tough and gave them a good fight. Rolling with Tennessee tonight +5 as I really think they have a good chance in this game. Kiffin really did a nice job with this team and I think they have a strong showing tonight.

Thursday Football
OK now I don't think Kentucky was such a bad call but Arizona was just a flat out bad call. They were the far inferior team and I think the true strength of the PAC-10 is starting to show. Today and tomorrow I look to right the ship and I will begin doing that with Oklahoma -10. I got this line at 8 about a week ago but I think there defense will really get it done against Stanford, and without Luck this Stanford team will likely not be the same. I'll be back with more later.
Oklahoma -10

Tough loss on Kentucky.
Tonight I like Arizona +3. Think they just have the better offense and a good enough defense to pull the win here.

Sunday Update
Nice day hitting both of our NFL picks.
My second bowl pick is Kentucky. Here's the writeup.
Clemson is coming off a very tough loss in the ACC Championship game to Georgia Tech and I think they might impact them in their preparation for this game. Kentucky is a legit SEC program and I think their chances of at least keeping this one a game are very good. Other than Bama and Florida, Kentucky kept it competitive with pretty much everyone this year (including the likes of Tennessee, Auburn, and South Carolina), and although Clemson has a good offense we saw what happened when a top-tier ACC team played a middle-tier SEC team when Clemson played South Carolina. I can’t say I really expect Kentucky to win the game here, but I’ll take seven all day long.
Pick: Kentucky +7

Sunday NFL
I guess to be fair I'll count UNC as a push yesterday. It opened at three but was closer to one by game time. I have two picks so far for NFL.
Houston +1.5
Oakland/Cleveland Under 37
I'll be back for tonight's college bowl game and possibly more NFL.

First Bowl Pick
Rolling with UNC +1. (I got it at 3 when it came out)
I know everyone is really excited about the season that Pitt had and everyone loves Pitt to knock off the Tar Heels. Not so fast I say. UNC matches up well with Pitt as Pitt loves to run the ball with their excellent running back Dion Lewis. However, UNC has a solid front seven and I think they do a good job of containing Lewis. UNC’s quarterback play has been touch and go this season but with the extra time to prepare I believe UNC will establish a plan to limit T.J. Yates’ mistakes. Pitt is coming off two tough losses to West Virginia and a devastating loss to Cincy in the Big East Championship game. I think after that they may have a tough time getting up for this game. A season where they showed great promise and potential ended bitterly and I believe the trend continues and they drop this game to an up-and-coming UNC squad.

Update
Disappointing Sunday/Monday action going 1-3. We have admittedly been struggling lately. However, I expect to hit the Bowl games very hard. Little hickup with the site, so the picks will probably be posted free of charge ultimately. First game goes off December 26th so check back for updates.
