For
the 2nd week in a row, I busted out 7 wins in 10 attempts.
That means I'm 22-8 in the last 3 weeks of college
football. Yes. Championship type stuff. I started
hot early, had a couple tough ones, and finished with
a bang. Check it out and love the outcome as I put up
7 W's in Week 7.
Virginia
Tech Hokies @ Boston College Eagles (+3): WINNER!
"The Eagles, with a big win over Clemson, a 4-1
record, and coming off a bye week will surprise a lot
of people when they dismantle the Hokies." (me)
What can I say? Some times it's best to just quote myself.
The Eagles soared to an "upset" victory over
the Hokies on Thursday Night. 1 game 1 win.
Temple
Owls @ Clemson Tigers (-44): WINNER! Those wonderful
little Tigers followed through, and I took this game
easily. Considering Clemson only scored in the first
3 quarters, the cover was even more impressive. It was
nice to have two wins before the weekend arrived.
Wake
Forest Demon Deacons (+4) @ North Carolina State Wolfpack:
WINNER! There was no letting down on either side. This
was one hell of a football game. The Deacons had points
to burn, but they came with it, and busted out of NC
State with a victory and a 6-1 record.
Syracuse
Orange (+25.5) @ West Virginia Mountaineers: WINNER!
Syracuse finally lost a game by more than 10. However,
they didn't lose a game by more than 24, and on Saturday,
that's what mattered most to Ol' Lucky. This game was
close early, and even in the middle, but down the stretch,
the West Virginia rushing attack, both Slaton and Pat
White, was too much for the Orange. But I win anyway!
Moowah ha ha ha!
South
Florida Bulls (-2) @ North Carolina Tarheels: WINNER!
This game was easy to call. The Tarheels got stomped
on as the Bulls gave NC the horns early and often. I'm
looking forward to the basketball season, as are Heel
fans everywhere.
Minnesota
Golden Gophers (+8.5) @ Wisconsin Badgers: LOSER!
I was the tool for taking the Gophers like a fool. Wisconsin
had this game wrapped up from the moment they walked
onto the field. I don't know what Minnesota was doing
on Saturday, because it definitely wasn't playing football.
My firs loss was a slap in the face.
Rutgers
Scarlet Knights (+2.5) @ Navy Midshipmen: WINNER!
Rutgers rode out of their game with Navy, easily holding
on to their undefeated record. How does 32-0 sound in
a game they weren't expected to win? Rutgers was the
better team in this one. I like the Knights, but the
true tests will come against Louisville and West Virginia.
Two tough games.
Marshall
Thundering Herd (+4) @ Southern Methodist Mustangs:
LOSER! Marshall just couldn't get it down the stretch.
After the first half, the Thundering Herd was up 4,
and looked like they were ready to pull the upset. But
as is often the case, the Mustangs won the second half
and the game. Two 4th quarter touchdowns doomed me in,
as SMU pulled ahead by 10.
Iowa
State Cyclones(+19.5) @ Oklahoma Sooners: LOSER!
Iowa State just couldn't get it done on the Sooners
side of the field. As 20 point underdogs, I was sure
this game would be close, and I'd get the win. But Oklahoma
wasn't having any of that. ISU could only manage a safety
in the 2nd half as they were ousted by 25 points on
the road. My 3rd and last loss on Saturday was a tough
one.
California
Golden Bears (-8) @ Washington State Cougars: WINNER!
Cal was just too good early, and that was plenty to
put down the Cougs. WSU had their chances, but couldn't
put anything on the board after their 2nd quarter field
goal. Cal's 21 first half points were all they needed
for the win and my 7th victory of Week 7. 7 in 7…
I hope that trend continues in week 8 if you get my
drift.
