Strange Pickings

This is so weird to see: Oklahoma State favored by 7.5 over Oklahoma, in Norman. The over/under is also precariously perched at 48. These guys are smarter than me though, so I'd have to pick against my natural inclination if I were forced to pick at all and pick OSU and the under- even though it is thought OSU's QB isn't even playing.

Florida State getting 25 against the Gators? I know the Gators D is good and FSU lost Ponder but it is a rivalry game... ohh Bobby- has he ever been a 25 point dog to the Gators?

Stew and a little Boogie

Mandel actually writes a very good article about the top five national contenders and their area where they need to improve. It's actually excellent. It's nice to see him display a strength in his writing style. It's brief and capsulated. Very nice.
