Pezgordo’s Week # 4 College Football Picks
Pezgordo’s College Football Picks – YTD: 20-18 ATS
A pretty disappointing week as I nailed some really good underdogs (went 5-1 w/ dogs), but gave it all back with some heavy chalk (which is uncharacteristic of my betting style) and a handful of terrible totals. I ended up going 6-7 on my posted picks and 1-0 on my newsletter selection.

Something tells me Ga Tech does the same thing to Miami that they did to Virginia last week. GT looks like they could be a hot ATS team right now. Much like what they were in the first month of last season.
That is definitely the way I am seeing that one too. Miami had no answers for the K-State run game,
Agreed here GS. Already had it as one of the games I’m going to be playing. Kansas put up ~500 yards on these guys and adding to it, some of Miami’s defense is banged up.
Did I just see something on espn about a key tcu player being out of commission?
Snow, their starting RB is out this week. But Frogs are pretty deep at RB, so it shouldn’t have much affect.
Ga Tech is a great play this week. Listen, if a defense has a hard time stopping a team, that lines up in the I, then how do you expect them to slow a play where it takes an extra split second to figure out who has the damn ball? Ga Tech going to run all over this young un disciplined Miami team. Beauty of taking Tech, is that when they do get up comfortable, they keep doing what got them that lead. Run the flex.

Anyone touching the Oregon Arizona total?
Seth, Vegas can’t seem to set Oregon totals high enough, but I think 79 is starting to get a little too high … and it’ll probably keep rising before kickoff.
Ducks supposedly have their best D since Chip Kelly has been there. Cat D is nothing special, but it’ll still be the first BCS defense Oregon has seen all year, and RichRod knows a thing or two about spread options.
If you like over, you’ve already lost out on a TD worth’s of line value (opened at 72 I believe). I guess I could still see a 52-28 type of game, but I think you will be biting your nails up until the end to get (or not allow) that final score.
With Ducks though, you almost have to think over or pass. With the line having risen an entire TD, I’ll pass.
Love Utah under. I don’t think the linesmakers have adjusted to the idea that Utah has a pretty good defense yet. Same logic led me to take BYU under last night as well.
Great call on BYU under. I nearly pulled the trigger on that one myself, but stuck w/ my +8.
I don’t think ASU’s D is as good as BYU, but they still should be able to slow down a very average Utah offense. From what I’ve seen the past two weeks I would say that ASU’s offense is better than BYU’s. so a good Utah D will be tested tomorrow night.
21-17, 24-21 wouldn’t surprise me though. that is what I am banking on.
