Last week it seemed like almost everyone that participated in our Saturday Edge Guest Handicapper Challenge went 4-1. But our winner, Derek Johnson, went a 5-0. By my count the winner of the challenge has went a perfect 5-0 in four of the eight challenges.
I only pick 3 games per week. I pick the most during game days. 1H and 2H and concentrate on fast starting teams for 1H and heavy favorites that have struggled in the 1H for 2H picks. YTD 33-26.
This week:
Kent +7 1/2
Bama/Geo 51 under
Hawaii -5 1/2 (large)
Thanks for sharing Jim. I’m looking at that Hawaii game myself. Just can’t see how the South Alabama kids don’t treat this game like the vacation that it is.
1) UCLA +10 at Stanford – This line has been moving up and down all week. This game should be close and competitive. A blowout wouldn’t shock me though.
2) FAU +9 vs. U-LA-LA. FAU at home getting 9 and has been great ATS (8-2).
3) Boise State -8 at Nevada- Nevada has been foundering as of late.
4) Georgia +8 vs. Alabama – Another game that should be close but I could also see a blowout.
5) Connecticut +5 vs. Cincy – Motivation is the key for me here. Home dog trying to become bowl eligible and cincy more or less playing for nothing. U Conn has been an enigma to me this year though but hey, roll the dice.

oh Ill go Stanford 28 UCLA 24. It is 28-17, then Hundley runs it in for a backdoor cover. They fail to recover the onside kick.
