Unfortunately, this is going to be another short post because of time constraints, although I will note that my positioning of Oregon State at #4 instead of Oregon was evidence of my failure at basic click-and-drag skills. That was a clear mistake that Brian Cook caught and it certainly was not my intent – the Ducks should be at #4. I’ll have some views on recent conference realignment-related stories coming up next week. Until then, here are this week’s parlay picks for both college football and the NFL (home teams in CAPS and odds from bodog via Yahoo!):
COLLEGE FOOTBALL
- PENN STATE (-14) over Temple
- Oregon State (+17) over BOISE STATE
- Georgia (PK) over MISSISSIPPI STATE
Frank the Tank’s College Football Parlay Record
Last Week: 1-2
Illini Games for the Season: 1-1
Overall Season: 3-5-1
NFL FOOTBALL
- Lions (+11) over VIKINGS
- Titans (+3) over GIANTS
- Packers (-3) over BEARS
Frank the Tank’s NFL Football Parlay Record
Last Week: 2-1
Bears Games for the Season: 1-1
Overall Season: 3-3
As always, feel free to use this post as an open thread for the weekend’s games and non-expansion college sports news. If you want to talk about conference realignment in general, please continue the discussion on the Big Ten Division-palooza post, while the college hockey discussion should be under the Big Ten Expansion Hits the Ice post. Have a great weekend!
