Week 11 is hardly even, but 1 and 1 is even, and that
makes 11, and 5-5 is the same as 1-1 as both are .500…
Thank you sadistic number crunching version of John
Madden. The way it goes, I finished the Week at .500
with my free picks, as my 5 free dogs did the most damage,
pulling me even on the week. This is how it went down.
LUCKY
LESTER'S Free NCAA Football Picks
Free
Picks: Week 11 (2-3) (3-2) (5-5)
Michigan
State Spartans @ Purdue Boilermakers (-4): loss
(Line: Thursday, 2:00am EST: Belmont)
Michigan
State looked pissed off about last week's loss to the
Wolverines, and probably more importantly Mike Hart's
comments about them being the little brother. Well,
they stepped right back up and put the Boilermakers
in a strangle hold, which helped me toss my money out
the window.
Indiana
Hoosiers (-2) @ Northwestern Wildcats: loss
(Line: Wednesday, 11:00pm EST: Belmont)
In
another huge surprise for me, the Wildcats actually
won a football game against a solid opponent. The Hoosiers
were stuck admiring their success from last week's game,
and crumbled in this one. A game I thought was a sure
win ended in blood and tears for Ole Lucky Lester.
North
Carolina @ North Carolina State (-3.5): win
(Line: Wednesday, 11:00pm EST: Belmont)
North
Carolina fought hard after falling way being early in
this game, but they couldn't get close enough to bust
my balls, losing by 4 to the Wolfpack. NC State just
can't finish off games, even when their very well being
depends on it. They managed a win here, but didn't impress
me much, and nearly gave me a heart attack while doing
so. In the end, they gave me a much needed win.
South
Florida Bulls (-16) @ Syracuse Orange: win
(Line: Wednesday, 11:00pm EST: Belmont)
Weird,
the Bulls absolutely destroyed, sausage rolled, or straight
train wrecked the Syracuse moldy Orange. South Flordia
was just too good, and they put up 40 points. No way
the Orange were about to get close to that number. A
big win for me.
Wake
Forest Demon Deacons (+9) @ Clemson Tigers: loss
(Line: Wednesday, 11:00pm EST: BodogLife)
Despite
my hopes that Clemson would fall back to their losing
ways, the Tigers stepped up in a must win game to smash
the Deacons of Wake Forest. This game wasn't close,
ever, and Wake Forest just looked outmanned and outcoached
from the very get go. Like I said, I knew Clemson was
the better team, I was just expecting the implosion
that usually comes late in the season from the Tigers.
Maybe next week?
Five
