Alright so last week wasn't great but it also wasn't a complete disgrace. As expected the first week proved to be hard to pick but now we all know how good these teams really are since they have a nice 1-AA team under their belt. Here are the Flying Potato's magic 8-Ball picks.
WVU -13.5 @ Marshall. Outlook not so good......for the Thundering Holidays that is. I agree with the Grey Bush when he says that WVU is better than they appeared in their first game and Marshall sucks. Hopefully in this second week test we will open the playbook up a little more and confuse the shit out of the Thundering Herd's Prop 48 defense.
Idaho +28.5 @ Nebraska. Dont Count on It......and by it i mean Nebraska winning by more that 4 touchdowns. I'm not saying this will be close, but this isn't your Father's Vandals team from years past, hell they even have Boise scared. I'll say Nebraska wins by 20.
Iowa -13.5 vs Iowa St. As I see it, yes....I know its a rivalry game but I think that this could be the year where Iowa finally lives up to the preseason hype. Unless Seneca Wallace shows up with another year of eligibility I think the Hawkeyes shouldn't have a problem covering the spread. (Note: If Seneca Wallace would come back I would expect this line to shift to favor Iowa St as he is currently undefeated in the Cy-Hawk series).
Stanford -6 @ UCLA. Signs point to yes....I normally try to stay away from Pac-10 games since that whole conference is a Jekyll and Hyde. One week a team may score 72 and the next they might not score at all. With that said I like Andrew Luck and I like his father even more.
Hawaii +3 @ Army. Outlook good. ...Seeing that I work and off shift I actually watched the whole Hawaii vs USC game to start the season and Hawaii looked pretty good. Now I know that USC's defense was absolute shit during that game, but it was enough to convince me that Hawaii's offense can outscore Army by at least 4....and get lei'd.
Texas A&M -19.5 vs Louisiana Tech. You may rely on it.......I like Jerrod Johnson and its a night game at Kyle Field. I don't see the Aggies having a problem covering this.
