I went 9-2 last week, boosting my season to a more respectable 13-8. Although one of my "victories" was that inexcusable debacle against Auburn. Anyway, here's the link to last week: https://bearinsider.com/forums/2/topics/116402
Double checking I didn't accidentally link to my latest Wordle score. Odds are for the home team, my picks in italics.

San Diego State @ River Rats -24: Mountain West might be the new home for the Rodents. Rodents show their appreciation by curbstomping their hosts. Beavs cover.

Mutts @ Michigan State +16: Mangy curs cover and give Mel Tucker well deserved case of rabies at the same time.

Hawaii @ Rubber Duckies -38: Recruiting for Hawaii should be the easiest job in the country. Pity they don't understand that. Quackers cover.

Colorado State @ Colorado -22: Ralphie's mercenaries romp and cover.

Fresno @ Spawn of Satan +3.5: Forces of Darkness no match for the Fighting Tedfords. Fresno covers.

UTEP @ Mildcats -17: Cute, fluffy kittens cover.

In the fresh from the bakery NL cupcake division:

Idaho @ Cal -12.5: Bears feast on Idaho french fries. Cal covers.
Weber State @ Utah -27.5: New QB for the Mormon Marauders. Missionaries barely cover the spread.
Northern Colorado @ Wazzoo -45.5: Puddytats looking good so far, but haven't exactly morphed into Bengal Tigers. Spread is too high. Cougs don't cover.
North Carolina Central @ bRuins -32.5: Song stealers overlook this team. They win but don't cover.
Sacramento State @ Furd -6.5: Only reason Furd covers is due to Troy Taylor's familiarity with his old team.

U$C is annoying BYE

7-3 and I forgot to bet OSU or the post spread was late. Total 12-7. I started off hot last year, and finished colder than a Cal placekicker.

OSU
Udub (though you never know how players react to adversity)
Buffs
Fresno
AZ (note: Clucko the Chicken coin toss picked UTEP). Should be an ugly game.

Edit for updates:

Cal and Furd cover.


Gonna pass on the others. USC always is annoying.

fucla is playing NC Central? NC CENTRAL? I've been reading the sched wrong for 2 years - thought it was State. Shame on fucla. Shame. and at home to boot. Chip is the sneaky sob I've always thought him to be.

Last week, 6-4, so I'm at 12-7 as well.
For this week, I'll go with the crowd:
OSU
UW
UO
UC
Fresno
UA

Well everyone is starting go SEC on out of conference games. Good for Auburn and Florida who decided to actually play real teams outside the south.

Updated with odds for the FCS games. To summarize the changes:

Idaho @ Cal -12.5: Bears feast on Idaho french fries. Cal covers.
Weber State @ Utah -27.5: New QB for the Mormon Marauders. Missionaries barely cover the spread.
Northern Colorado @ Wazzoo -45.5: Puddytats looking good so far, but haven't exactly morphed into Bengal Tigers. Spread is too high. Cougs don't cover.
North Carolina Central @ bRuins -32.5: Song stealers overlook this team. They win but don't cover.
Sacramento State @ Furd -6.5: Only reason Furd covers is due to Troy Taylor's familiarity with his old team.

I show Cal -14.5

I just saw the line on the UCLA game scroll on ESPN, 35 now. Up until this, I had not heard of NC Central. How do they end up on anyone's schedule?

Idaho @ Cal -12.5: Cal covers again.
Colorado State @ Colorado -22: Rivalry games are difficult to predict.
Mutts @ Michigan State +16: Was Mel Tucker even coaching the game?
Fresno @ Spawn of Satan +3.5: Jeff Tedford > Beau Baldwin
Sacramento State @ Furd -6.5: There is trouble down on the Farm.
