I had a best bet win with Northern Illinois on Thursday night. I also had 3 regular plays with Western Michigan, Eastern Michigan and Pittsburgh going only 1-2 ATS on these picks. Below are the rest of my picks for this week.

 

BEST BETS

My FIRST BEST BET was on NORTHERN ILLINOIS at home giving Ball State 28 1/2 points on Thursday night.  WINNER

 

My NEXT BEST BET is on TEXAS at home giving Kansas 33 points. I know this is a lot of points to spot a team but Texas can name the score on this game as Kansas is just plain awful. In the past 4 weeks Texas has played TCU, Okie State and Oklahoma with Baylor thrown in, who the Longhorns beat by 31 at Baylor. This is home and I believe Texas will pour it on for the home crowd. I will lay the big number and make Texas my NEXT BEST BET.

 

My NEXT BEST BET is on OKLAHOMA STATE on the road giving Iowa State 6 points. Okie State will not be in a good mood after losing last week at home to Oklahoma while the Cyclones lost a heartbreaker on the road at West Virginia. Okie State is 5-0 on the road this year and giving less than a TD to a team they have not lost to since 2011 and in that time only won by less than a TD once. I like my odds here so I will lay the points and make the Cowboys my NEXT BEST BET.

 
 

My NEXT BEST BET is on NOTRE DAME on the road giving Miami, Fl 2 points. Notre Dame is currently ranked 5th while Miami is ranked 6th. This is a perfect time for the Fighting Irish to show the NCAA that they are ready for prime time and a place in the top 4. I feel the line shows the oddsmakers like ND but not overwhemingly and that makes this best bet less than a fg. So I am going with ND and making them my NEXT BEST BET.

 

 
My LAST BEST BET is on BOISE STATE on the road giving Colorado State 5 points. This is the first time this year that I am going with my Smurfs. The beginning of the year I felt the Broncos were not going to have a good season starting with out 2-2 but they have since been on a 5 game winning streak going 4-1 ATS. CSU has lost its last 2 games and they are ripe for the picking here as Boise has a new attitude and I think I like it. So with the line under a td I am taking my Smurfs and making them my LAST BEST BET.
 

 

 
 
REGULAR PLAYS
 
 
As for regular plays, I won with Western Michigan game but lost the Eastern Michigan on Wednesday night. I also lost the Thursday night pick with Pittsburgh.  Continuing on I also like Arkansas State on the road  giving 10 1/2 points to South Alabama. I like Texas A&M at home giving New Mexico 17 1/2 points. And finally I like the Rutgers/Penn State game to go over 52 1/2

My gut feeling play is Utah at home to beat Washington State.
