I pick "
(170) Purdue
".
When Purdue was 5-0 and ranked in the Top 5 they were clearly overrated having beaten Syr, Ball St, Ill, ND, & Penn St. However, now that they have lost 4 st games by a combined 10 pts to 4 teams headed to bowls, there is once again MAJOR VALUE in backing Pur. The Boilers have been plagued by turnovers and bad breaks but yet have fought like hell in all of their games. Purdue enjoys some HUGE fundamental adv vs OSU. Whether Orton plays or not (obviously it will help if he does but not kill us if he doesn't), the Boilers are FAR more effcient on offense, as they are 23rd in the country in total offense. Meanwhile OSU, is PATHETIC on offense. They are 79th in rushing offense, 99th in passing, and 105th in total O. Purdue has shut down opposing offenses all yr, especially at home where they are giving up just over 10ppg. NOTE: Pur is 20-1 ATS at home vs Big 10 when allow 17 or less pts. Don't be deceived by OSU's 32 pts last week. They got 1 TD on a punt ret and benefitted from 3 INT's by MSU's back-up QB. The biggest RED FLAG in OSU's game last week was the fact the MSU dropped back to pass 46 times with their back-up QB and completed 29 without allowing a SINGLE sack. Sunny weather is expected on Sat, and Purdue will be able to throw all day on OSU. PU has TRIPLE REVENGE vs OSU and is 36-3-1 ATS when they win SU in rev. Lastly, OSU is 0-10 ATS away off double dig SU win. Clarett situation was BIG DISTRACTION this week. Re-energized Purdue WINS BIG AT HOME!

I pick "
(142) Wyoming
".
At 4-3, Wyoming is actually still in the hunt for a bowl bid. The Cowboys are a perfect 4-0 at home this year, including an impressive win over SEC conference representative Ole Miss. UW has finally begun to recruit a higher caliber of athlete with more speed, and it shows, as they've held 3 of 4 opponents to 10 pts or less at home. We are getting tremendous LINE VALUE here as a result of Wyoming's lopsided loss at CSU last Fri night (a game in which I NAILED CSU). However, watching that game I was impressed with Wyoming's ability to move the ball and their team attitude. The score was very unindicative of the outcome as things snowballed late against the Cowboys in that game. With Utah still looming on the schedule, the Cowboys cannot afford to drop this game if they have any plans on finishing in the top tier of the conference and landing a bowl bid. AF is 0-3 ATS in their last 3 trips to Laramie. The Falcons' defense has really slipped this yr with a virtually new unit from last yr's team. The price is cheap here for a team that is 4-0 at home. The SU winner is also 13-1 ATS in AF's last 14 games, so we're really picking the winner of this game SU. AF faces Army next, a game that means much more to them, especially having already lost to Navy. Wyoming is a team on the rise, and they will get a big home victory here.

I pick "
(130) Syracuse
".
Syracuse HAS TO WIN this game if they have any hopes of a bowl bid (the key to saving Coach Pasqualoni's job). The Orangemen have played very good football at home this season, beating Cincy & Rutgers by double digits, and almost knocking off #5 Florida State. Syr is 3-0 ATS at home this year where they are very comfortable. This is another game in which there is TREMENDOUS LINE VALUE as a result of Syracuse's pathetic showing last week at WV on national TV. However, a closer look once again reveals a different picture. Syracuse moved the ball up and down the field against a WV defense that is far better than that of UConn. They did so without their best player, Walter Reyes, who will be back for this game and should get his 25+ carries. Syracuse did themselves in with special teams mishaps (3 missed FG's, a fumbled punt, and a blocked punt). With 10 days between games, I feel very comfortable that the Orangemen will have addressed their special teams failures. UConn has played just 1 road game this season, a very UNIMPRESSIVE 27-7 loss at BC in which they were physically dominated. UConn enjoys playing the role of bully against inferior teams (Murray St, Duke, Army), but against the two teams supposedly a notch ahead of them (WV, BC) UConn could not match their physicality. Uconn is already 5-2 with games against Buffalo & Rutgers still remaining. Thus, they will not play with the DESPERATION Syracuse will in this game. Huskies have given up 62 pts last 2 games.
