11.06.09 WEEKEND PICKS: WORK IS OVER

At the end of each week, Josh picks the winners to the weekend’s hottest matchups. Home teams are in ALL CAPS. Follow Josh’s action here. Thanks to the Chavez clan for the img.

Tonight: Boise State -21.5 over LOUISIANA TECH. The Broncos can make a statement to the nation with a big win against a team that’s recently had their number in beautiful downtown Ruston, LA.

Cavs -8.5 over KNICKS. LeBron typically plays well at the Garden, but that doesn’t mean that he’ll be doing so next year in a Knicks uniform. Also taking under 200 here.

Eskimos +4 over LIONS. Oh, CFL, how I’ve missed you.

Saturday: Western Michigan +20.5 over MICHIGAN STATE, under 56. I don’t expect much from a middling MAC team, but I expect even less from Michigan State, who has snatched defeat from the jaws of victory far too many times this season.

PENN STATE -5.5 over Ohio State, under 39. Big Ten football doesn’t blow up the skirts of many people, but the fourth quarter of this game should be quite thrilling, relatively speaking.

Vanderbilt +35 over FLORIDA. Brandon Spikes picked the wrong week to stop eye gouging. Also going under 67 for Fresno State-IDAHO.

BRETT ROGERS over Fedor. More on this fight and the Strikeforce Saturday card tomorrow morning.

Sunday: Packers -10 over Buccaneers. Two Cs. Two Es. Zero wins.

BENGALS +3 over Ravens. I think the juice on that Baltimore D is finally starting to dry up.

COLTS -9.5 over Texans. With Owen Daniels out for the year and Steve Slaton sucking ass, Houston has their work cut out for themselves.

Panthers at SAINTS, under 52. Final score prediction: 51-0.

We’ll have three posts tomorrow. Get silly tonight. Come back once you’ve awakened.
