College Football Picks

The Colorado Buffaloes and the Nebraska Cornhuskers are two teams that love to hate each other. But, due to conference realignment this yearly rivalry evaporated and had not been witnessed since 2010. Finally, Colorado and Nebraska will scrap once again. Keith Franks breaks down the start to the football season and offers his week 2 pick… or week 1 if you’re a cranky Nebraska coach.

At a glance, this line may seem inflated. Rutgers was able to win their opener handily over Texas State 35-7 and 35 points is a big number for Ohio State to cover. Jay Horne explains why the +35 is not as juicy as it may seem and perhaps Rutgers isn’t as good as their final score vs. Texas State suggests.

The Clemson Tigers are expecting an ACC championship season and they’re legit contenders for the National Championship. College Station is going to be sold-out and pumped-up for the No. 2 team in the country on Saturday night. Jimbo Fisher began his Texas A&M career with a 59-7 beat down of Northwestern State, covering the -47.5 spread. A&M could be on the other end of it when they host Clemson.

It’s Saturday week 1! At 10:45pm EST, the BYU Cougars will be in Tucson to take on the Arizona Wildcats.
