Week 6 NCAA Free Football Picks: 2011

College Football Free Picks

Florida Gators @ LSU Tigers (-3)
I don’t believe the Gators have much of a chance. Florida is good, sure, but against a team as physical as the Tigers, I’m not sure they have much of a chance. Florida is still learning how to get that old physicality back, and they aren’t quite there yet. The Tigers are as “smash mouth” as any team in college football, and I think Saturday’s going to make a long day for the Gators.

Miami Hurricanes (+7.5) @ Virginia Tech Hokies
The Hokies didn’t do much against Clemson last week, but they are still a very good football team. Still, offensively, I don’t think they are talented enough to make them a value-pick against a solid team like Miami. The Hurricanes make lots of mistakes, and Virginia Tech will certainly take advantage of those – but the Canes will also make big plays, and I think that keeps this game within a touchdown.

Arizona State Sun Devils (-3) @ Utah Utes
The Sun Devils might just be the pride of the Pac 10 South. They’ve played pretty well against top opponents, and Utah will certainly get them ready to go. The Utes have been off and on, or on and then off I guess. They worry me a little bit, but not enough to go against the Devils with just a field goal. A close game, this should be a cover anyway.

Maryland Terrapins (+14.5) @ Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
The Terps started off the season well then faded a little bit, but they have some big plays in them and hopefully can keep this within two touchdowns for me.
