Tonight's Picks

I like a few games tonight so here goes, being that it is already after 4pm my time. Louisiana Monroe -2 versus Wake Forest. Monroe is the better team and at home. Rebuilding effort begins for new Wake coach Dave Clawson. Boise State +10.5 versus Mississippi (Atlanta). Sure Pederson is gone but not much else as a loaded Boise team gets to do what it loves most--be a big dog against a bigger conference opponent. Rebels are loaded too but I am not a big fan of QB Bo Wallace. Temple +11.5 at Vandy. This spread is free falling and for good reason. The home team lost all of its skill position players from last year while the visitors have most back including exciting young QB P.J. Walker. Temple was 5-1 versus spread down the stretch with wins against Army and Memphis and 3-pt losses to UCF and Rutgers. They have an outside shot at a bowl game this year and will look to make some noise against the Dores. WSU-Rutgers over 61. Now Rutgers will run the ball tonight but still. with their secondary and the Cougars attack? That could be 50 right there. And the Scarlet Knights have a better offense than they showed last year, especially with Ralph Friedgen calling the plays. I expect to hit this over early in the 3rd. How does RU stop Connor Halliday?
