Baylor at Kansas St, Rice at Southern Miss Picks

Rice at Southern Miss

There are a few teams I never win with. I can bet on them or against them and it makes no difference. Southern Miss happens to be one of those teams. I never seem to be on the right side of their games. I guess I should just give up even trying but I have this stubborn streak.


I can’t tell you I know anything about either team this year as I haven’t even seen video highlights of them. I do know that I have value according to my program and even though it’s off to a lousy start and keeps forcing me to play bad teams on the road ( it’s force is strong, I am a slave to it’s power ) I guess I will give it another chance to save some grace.

You have to choose which streak continues, Rice continues to cover against Southern Miss and play close games or I continue to stay on the wrong side of Southern Miss games.

Rice +15


Baylor at Kansas St

Ok to begin with I might be just a little wowed here. I watched Baylor against TCU earlier this season and I was just stunned by a couple of things. First Robert Griffin is one seriously dynamic weapon. The guy can run and even more impressive is the ability and accuracy of the grows. Secondly and what may have impressed me more than a single player was the desire of this team to perform and not quit.

I like that in a team and as someone who has coached various sports I can tell you that there is a HUGE advantage to coaching players that have heart and determination.

There is a chance that Kansas St could suffer from a let down after beating Miami last week although I'm not basing my play on that being a factor. I like Baylor to simply out perform K-State, win the game and cover.

While I will play Baylor minus the points that's not the play here. Even more than the side I like the total here which says a lot since I try to avoid TOTALS. While Baylor does score in bunches they tend to allow points as well. K-State has the ability to keep putting points up against any team not super stout against the run. I like Baylor to score in the mid 40's and Kansas St low to mid 30's.

Play: Baylor/Kansas St OVER 63.5
