The Beeze's College Football Pick'em (week 4)

Last week I won 3...lost 1...and 1 push...

Let's see what we do this week...


- BYU at Michigan....

Okay, Michigan who isn't overly impressive, while the home team, is a 6.5 point favorite...I think that is crazy...I think BYU bounce back from their loss to UCLA last week...Take BYU plus the 6.5 points


- Georgia Tech at Duke...

Duke is 3-22 versus the Georgia Tech...It's not going to get better this week...GT is another team looking to bounce back from a tough loss...Take the Yellow Jackets minus the 7.5 points...



-Bowling Green at Purdue...

This week the Falcons are the favorite...It doesn't matter, I'm still taking them...Purdue blows...Bowling Green minus 5.5 points...



- Rice at Baylor....

Baylor has won 6 straight against Rice...And I feel confident that the Bears can take the Owls again...But Baylor doesn't understand what defense is...Take Rice plus the 34.5 points...

- Ohio University at Minnesota...

I don't even need to pull up any stats or history, or any of that bullshit...Minnesota ain't nothing to write home about...Ohio is a solid MAC team...Take the Bobcats plus the 10 points...

- Miss State at Auburn...

Auburn has proven that they walked into the season grossly overrated...yet they are a 3 point favorite....Miss State is 3-11 as a visitor...Can they turn it around? Yes...The Bulldogs will win straight up, but go ahead and take those 3 points too...



- UCLA at Arizon...

The visitor is 3-8...UCLA is 13-23 on the road in versus PAC-12 foes...But in the end it comes down to the better team...I'm going with UCLA minus 3 points.



-Utah at Oregon...

Utah is is 4-9 against ranked teams since joining the PAC-12...This one should be the game to watch...These teams will slug it out...the Utes are better then people expected, and Oregon is good, but not where they have been in past years...Take Utah plus the 12 points...

Good luck...

Beat the Bookie!

The Beeze's College Pick'em (week 3)

This week's pick'em is going to be shorter...There just aren't that many games I like...And you don't bet just to bet...You gotta be smart about it...Last week I was right on 75% of my games...I'm not going to throw a bunch a games out there for ya if I wouldn't bet them myself...We'll start this week with a tough one...


-Georgia Tech at Notre Dame....

GT walks into South Bend as 2.5-3 point favorite...They are only the favorite because of the loss of Irish starting QB, Malik Zaire...That said, with or without Zaire, this game was always going to hinge on how well the Irish defense plays against the pesky Tech offense...GT is 8-3 in road openers...The Irish have a commanding lead in this series, with a 27-6-1 record...The Yellow jackets will push Notre Dame...This game will come down to the wire...I think the Irish can pull it out...Take them getting the 3 points...



-Memphis at Bowling Green...

Yep, Bowling Green has become my go-to to team when looking at games to bet...The Falcons put up points...They can run with almost anyone...BGSU is 8-1 hosting non-conference teams since 2010...Memphis is a helluva team flying under most people's radar...They can rack up the points as well...But I think they may meet their match this week...Take the Falcons getting 3 points....



-Northern Illinois at Ohio State...

NIU is 5-4 versus Big Ten schools over the last six years...Ohio State is 19-0 against MAC schools since 2000, but they have had a number of issues covering the spread...NIU isn't Hawaii...They'll put up a fight...Take the Huskies plus the 35 points...



-BYU at UCLA...

These are two really good teams...And if we have learned anything over the first two weeks of the season, when it comes to BYU, throw all the analytics out the window...AND, and don't care who they are playing, there is no logical reason to have them as 16.5 point underdog...This game will be on TV at 10:30 (est)...Take BYU plus the 16.5 points and enjoy the hell out of the show these two teams put on...

-There are other big games...Ole Miss at Alabama...'Bama is a 7 point favorite...I just don't trust them yet, and I'm not sure what to think of Ole Miss yet...I'm leaving this game alone...

-Stanford at USC...The Trojans are a 10 point favorite...But these PAC-12 games some times turn into a slugfest...Stanford has a lot to prove...The Gambler in me would take USC, but right now, I'm leaving it alone...

-The last game I'll talk about...

Auburn at LSU...

LSU is 9-5 versus Auburn, and on a 7-0 stretch when hosting the Tigers...LSU is a 7 point favorite...I expect Auburn to come out with a lot of fire after nearly losing to Jacksoville State last week...Then there is the Les Miles factor...While he is a good coach, he has an incredible knack to make stupid mistakes/decision, that often fuck over the gambler or the bookie...I'll take Auburn getting the 7 points...

Good luck!

Daddy Diddy Loses It

Rapper, producer, music thief, actor, and father Sean 'Diddy' Combs was arrested and charged with three counts of assault with a deadly weapon, one count of making terrorist threats, and one count of of battery, after getting into a physical altercation with UCLA Football's stregnth coach, Sal Alosi and an intern...

Reports say Alosi kicked Combs son Justin ( a junior DB) out of practice for a lack of effort during Monday's practice...Later that afternoon 'Diddy' showed up to confront Alosi...Alosi told the intern to call campus police and after that the elder Combs lost it....The following is from the Bruin Report Online...

"Alosi, then, according to witnesses, put up his hand in a non-threatening way, and instructed Combs to get his father out of the office. Diddy then walked into Alosi's hand, and told Alosi not to put his hands on him.

In the next moment, according to many on the scene, Diddy attacked Alosi, until interns and other personnel pulled off Diddy. The celebrity broke free again at one point and struck Alosi. The personnel were then successful in getting Diddy out of the office and into the weight room, where Diddy picked up a kettlebell, which is a type of barbell, and then swung in at one of the interns."

After seeing the security video, along with Alosi's torn shirt and scratches on his face, the police arrested Combs...

Hey, I'm all for sticking up for your kids...I've fired off angry emails at teachers...But all my kids are 13 and under...But your kid is a college junior in a big-time football program...Coaches are going to be rough on them...If you did and your kid didn't know that, you're stupid...Maybe talk to the staff to get their view on why they think your kid was loafing, before you go swinging Kettlebells...I'm guessing 'Diddy' is also lucky Alosi didn't lose his shit, because I would guess Sal could have pounded the hell out of him!

I'm sure there will be more to come from this story...But nonetheless, 'Diddy' your music sucks!
