College Football Top 25 Pick ‘em: Week 12

Dr. Wedge Buster places his, um..is that paint? er uh..places his bets on the Top 25
Thursday 7:45
(13) OKLAHOMA STATE -17 over Colorado
The Buffs are terrible at home and worse on the road. OK State is pretty good against the weak opposition.
Friday 9:30
(6) Boise State -23.5 over UTAH STATE
Remarkably, the Aggies are 7-2 against the spread this year, despite having won just three games outright. They haven’t faced anyone this good though.
Saturday Noon
(8) Ohio State -12.5 over MICHIGAN
You can say that anything can happen in a rivalry and you’d be right to some degree, but not when there is a considerable gap in talent and experience.
Minnesota +10 over (15) IOWA
I don’t see the Hawkeyes beating anyone handily.
(25) North Carolina -3.5 over BOSTON COLLEGE
The Heels are riding high after the big win over Miami last week. Plus they have more talent than the Eagles.
Duke +20 over (24) MIAMI
The Devils will cause fits with the Hurricanes as they air it out and make it interesting.
12:20
(3) ALABAMA over Chatanooga
No line. No contest.
12:30
(1) FLORIDA over Florida International
Ditto.
1:00
Memphis +24 over (22) HOUSTON
Hard to predict the Cougars. Seems like their D needs to get lucky to stop anyone.
2:00
(4) TCU -31.5 over WYOMING
I won’t bet against the Horned Frogs.
3:30
NORTHWESTERN +7 over (14) Wisconsin
The Badgers struggle away from Camp Randall and the Wildcats sport a feisty squad.
(12) Penn State -3 over MICHIGAN STATE
Sparty sucks.
NC State +21 over (16) VIRGINIA TECH
The Pack can score enough to hang around for awhile. The Hokies haven’t wowed me this year.
(10) LSU +4 over OLE MISS
I’ll take the points and the better team. The Rebels have yet to net their first marquee win.
(18) BYU -10 over Air Force
BYU owns this series over the last 5 years and they are playing better of late.
4:00
(18) UTAH -20 over San Diego State
The Utes are runnin’ mad after being humiliated by TCU on nation television. They return home to crush the Aztecs.
5:00
(20) Oregon State -31 over Washington State
A ridiculous line for a conference game on the road, but the Beavers are hot right now. Can’t say the same about the Cougars.
7:30
Cal +7 over (17) STANFORD
Can anyone cool the Cardinal? The Bears look to maul the high powered O and stop Heisman hopeful Toby Gerhart in his tracks. It’s a hotly contested rivalry and this looks like game of the week material.
7:45
Kansas State +17 over (25) NEBRASKA
K-State can run the football and Big Red hasn’t proved it could stick in the Top 25. This line is a bit too big for a Big 12 North battle like this one.
8:00
(11) Oregon -6 over ARIZONA
The Ducks appeared to be the class of the Pac 10 before a steamrolling by Stanford. They’ll keep their Rose Bowl hopes alive against AZ.
Kansas +27.5 over (2) TEXAS
The Jawhawk Offense is good enough to hang around. Isn’t it? Maybe? That is quite a large line.
