This Week's College Football Picks: Oct. 28

This Week's College Football Picks

By JOHN P. WISE
One Great Season

With two straight weeks of unimpressive prognosticating under our belts, Adam and I are hopeful that a big week is in order. Many ranked teams take their acts on the road this weekend, including a few below. Will this Halloween weekend be a little tricky to pick? Or do the wagering gods have some treats in store?

My picks
Last week: 5-4
Overall: 35-23
This week:
Florida State over North Carolina State
Iowa over Michigan State
Nebraska over Missouri
Auburn over Mississippi
Stanford over Washington
Texas over Baylor
Florida over Georgia
Oregon over USC
Utah over Air Force
Michigan over Penn State

Adam's picks
Last week: 3-5-1
Overall: 28-25-5
Florida State -4
Iowa -4.5
Missouri +6
Auburn -7.5
Stanford -7
Baylor +9
Georgia +1.5
Oregon -7
Utah -5
Michigan -3

Miscellaneous Bets
+ After eight weeks, my Ohio State experiment stands at +$280. The Buckeyes are 5-2-1 ATS this year. Ohio State is a 26-point favorite at Minnesota this week.
+ After eight weeks, my Alabama experiment also stands at +$280. The Tide are 5-2-1 ATS this year. 'Bama is idle this week.
+ To win $100 on the Ohio State money line last week, a bettor had to risk $2,000. Through eight OSU games this year, money-line wagerers have had to lay $71,805 to win $700. This week, the Ohio State money-line wager is $3,000 to win $100.
