NCAA Week 9

Ole Miss +6
Playing a fellow SEC rival in Arkansas this week, Ole Miss will keep it close on Saturday. The Rebels have averaged 32 points a game while giving up 26. Almost exact opposites, the Backs have given up 27 and given up 32. The records and stats alone favor Ole Miss yet they are the underdogs this week. The Backs are 2-3 at home while the Rebels are 1-1 on the road (and that loss came against #1 Bama). Pick the spread.

Ohio State -1
Two titans of the Big Ten clash this week as the Buckeyes visit Penn State. Ohio State is 8-0 and if you think they are willing to give up a perfect record to a conference rival then more power to you. The Buckeyes and the N. Lions have comparable stats so look for a close game. Sometimes it's better to go with your gut then to think with your brain and mine is screaming from a Buckeyes W.

Ohio -7 Sleeper pick of the Week
Meet the hottest team in the country. Well maybe not the hottest, but the country's favorite underdog story. The Bobcats are 7-0 and are ranked #24 in the country. They have scored 34 points or more in their past 4 games and are the team that no one expected to do anything. Under ex-Nebraska head coach Frank Solich, Ohio is a team that looks to prove that they belong with the big boys.
