Hello friends welcome back for week 10. I know how is it week 10 already? I’m writing this on a time crunch so let’s just dive right in.

Last week was very solid. 3-1 +2.8 units. We cashed the best bet to get to 5-5 -0.44 units. Just got to keep digging out of that hole. For the season we sit at a very nice 23-16 +6.94 units. Onto the business.

West Virginia @ Texas Tech -16.5 O/U 65.5

Interesting matchup down in Lubbock, Texas today. This is a big spread for two teams that can run the ball and score. For that reason I’m going to ride with Rich Rod and the Mountaineers. West Virginia +16.5 -110.

Oklahoma State @ Kansas State +6.5 O/U 62.5

Tough loss for Okie State last week. But I like them to bounce back here. I think K-State is in firm give up territory. They have dropped 4 of 5. Not good for Colin Klein. Oklahoma State -6.5 -102.

Kentucky @ Tennessee -6 O/U 42.5

A sneaky amount of hatred between these two schools. No love lost between Kentucky and Tennessee. Will Stein has done a great job coaching up Kentucky. But I think Tennessee’s ground game and defense will just be too much. Not to mention Kentucky has only won once in Neyland in the last 40 years. Volunteers -6 -110.

Best Bet

Miami @ Notre Dame -7 O/U 54.5

I know what you’re thinking. Oh great Mike is going back to the Notre Dame well. In the words of my friend Lee Corso,

Not so fast my friend. I think Chris Ash’s defense is ripe for picking for Darian Mensah even without Malachi Toney. Notre Dame has to prove they can go win the big one. And until I see it I will remain skeptical. The U +7 -105.

word on the street

wise words

“A friend of mine who used to be my boss at ESPN once was asked why sports had exploded the way it had. He said, “Because you can’t go to Blockbuster and rent tonight’s game.” Every night is different in sports. Every day there are different heroes and villains and conversations after the game.“
