After a two week hiatus, Justin and I are back with our weekly picks.  Last week both of us struggled, but Justin currently holds a two point lead.  We also preview this week’s slate of games and analyze the impact that Texas A&M’s move to the SEC will have on the national landscape. http://68and16sportscast.tumblr.com/   [...]

I may have only gone 4-6 in my top ten picks against the spread last week, but boy did I have another great weekend picking upsets.  For the second-time in the first four weeks of the season, my double-digit longshot pulled off a huge upset, as Colorado State knocked off Utah State.  In addition, three [...]

I wanted to make sure I got these out nice and early this week, so that you all had time to consider them for your respective pools and wagers.  All of the spreads below are from the World Sports Exchange’s current lines and are ordered based on my personal confidence in each. Pick # 1 (Lock [...]

Good Thoughts: 1.  Legit Unbeatens- Last week in this entry I gave an analysis of surprise unbeatens who or may or may not be “for real”.  Well, after last Saturday’s action sometimes legitimized their undefeated status while others were exposed as frauds.  First of all, Kansas State, a squad who I predicted to finish near [...]

Aside from my double-digit longshot pick, half of my upsets to watch out for in week 3 came to fruition, as Iowa State, FIU, and Wyoming all picked up surprise victories just like I predicted.  Impressively, those three upsets were actually the bigger of the six that I picked that week.  Now I have six [...]

I, first of all, apologize for the lengthy delay in posting this entry.  I have been in Vegas all week getting advice from handicappers on these games, so I decided to wait until I left Sin City before finalizing my picks.  Last Saturday, I went 6-4 for the second straight week, so now I’m over [...]

Good Thoughts: 1.  Florida International- I was one of the few people in the country that called for the Golden Panthers to beat out Troy for the Sun Belt title, but it appears that even I underrated this team.   FIU pulled off its second straight mega-upset on Saturday, as they knocked off a UCF team [...]

After a long break, Justin and I are back with weekly picks. I look to make up ground this week, as Justin currently holds a 14-7 lead. We also discuss the week 3 TV schedule and the strong 8pm line up. Finally, Justin and I run through each of our top 25 polls. http://68and16sportscast.tumblr.com/  

I had a great week picking upsets in week 1, and last week could have been even better.  In the end, only three of the nine upset picks I offered came into fruition, but another five of them, including both of my double-digit longshots, almost hit.  I don’t envision any huge upsets in week 3 [...]

There was good news and bad news with my week 2 picks.  The good news was that after posting a disappointing 4-6 mark in week 1, I rebounded by going 6-4 last weekend to bring my overall winning percentage back to .500.  The bad news was that my nine week regular season lock of the [...]

Good Thoughts: 1.  Exciting Finishes- While Week 2 won’t be remembered for any marquee games that influenced the national championship picture, there was nevertheless a disproportionate number of exciting finishes on Saturday.  It started on Friday night with the wild and crazy Arizona State/Missouri OT thriller and ended with an unbelievable final 2 minutes of [...]

The first week of college football is officially in the books. We will always remember this first week for severe weather, game delays, and awful uni design. Justin and I recap the week 1 action with a focus on the Boise St., LSU, and S. Carolina games, and also talk about some big week 2 [...]

Despite my struggles with my top ten picks against the spread in week 1, my upset picks were spot on.  Three of the six potential upsets that I mentioned ended up happening, including one of my double-digit longshot picks.  Hopefully, my success will continue in week 2, as I have several more dogs that I [...]

Well, I must admit that I didn’t get off to a great start in my weekly picks for the season, as I floundered to a 4-6 record in week 1.  I did however extend my regular season streak of lock of the week picks to nine straight!   Yes, you heard that correctly… my # 1 [...]
