Pick: Bowling Green
Miami-Ohio (3-5; 3-1) at Buffalo (7-1; 4-0)- 8:00, ESPN2
Pick: Buffalo
Wednesday, October 31st
Ball State (3-6; 2-3) at Toledo (4-4; 2-2)- 7:30, ESPN2
Pick: Toledo
Thursday, November 1st
Northern Illinois (5-3; 4-0) at Akron (4-3; 2-2)- 7:00, CBSSN

Pick: Western Michigan
Temple (5-3; 4-0) at (12) UCF (7-0; 4-0)- 7:30, ESPN: The Owls will be the biggest test for the Knights so far. The winner of this game will be solely in first place in the East division of the AAC. The Owls are the better team so they'll get the victory here at home.
Pick: UCF
Friday, November 2nd
Pittsburgh (4-4; 3-1) at (25) Virginia (6-2; 4-1)- 7:30, ESPN2: Amazingly enough the winner of this game could end up in first place in the Coastal Division depending on other results. Give me the Cavs at home.
Pick: Virginia
WKU (1-7; 0-4) at Middle Tennessee (5-3; 4-1)- 8:00, CBSSN
Pick: Middle Tennessee
Colorado (5-3; 2-3) at Arizona (4-5; 3-3)- 10:30, FS1: Khalil Tate is back and the Wildcats are a team that's improved since their slow start meanwhile the Buffaloes are a team that hasn't looked great of late. Cats win at home.
Pick: Arizona
Saturday, November 3rd
Louisville (2-6; 0-5) at (2) Clemson (8-0; 5-0)- 12:00, ABC
Pick: Clemson
Nebraska (2-6; 1-4) at (10) Ohio State (7-1; 4-1)- 12:00, FOX
Pick: Ohio State
(19) Syracuse (6-2; 3-2) at Wake Forest (4-4; 1-3)- 12:00, ACCN: This screams "trap" for the Orange. Demon Decons get a big win at home.
Pick: Wake Forest
(20) Texas A&M (5-3; 3-2) at Auburn (5-3; 2-3)- 12:00, ESPN: The Aggies have overachieved this season and the Tigers have underachieved. I don't love the Aggies on the road and the Tigers will take this one at home although I don't feel confident about it.
Pick: Auburn
(24) Iowa State (4-3; 3-2) at Kansas (3-5; 1-4)- 12:00, FSN: Classic letdown spot for the Jayhawks
after an upset win.
Pick: Iowa State
South Carolina (4-3; 3-3) at Ole Miss (5-3; 1-3)- 12:00, SECN
Pick: South Carolina
Rutgers (1-7; 0-5) at Wisconsin (5-3; 3-2)- 12:00, BTN
Pick: Wisconsin
Michigan State (5-3; 3-2) at Maryland (5-3; 3-2)- 12:00, ESPN2: Either outcome of this won't surprise me. Sparty is the better team and they'll take it on the road as the Terps are dealing with some turmoil with the firing of DJ Durkin.
Pick: Michigan State
Oklahoma State (5-3; 2-3) at Baylor (4-4; 2-3)- 12:00, FS1: Letdown spot here for the Cowboys after their big win over the Texas Longhorns. Bears take advantage and get a huge win at home.
Pick: Baylor
Air Force (3-5; 1-4) at Army (6-2)- 12:00, CBSSN
Pick: Army
Memphis (4-4; 1-3) at East Carolina (3-5; 1-4)- 12:00, ESPNU
Pick: Memphis
Central Michigan (1-8; 0-5) at Eastern Michigan (4-5; 2-3)- 12:00, ESPN3
Pick: Eastern Michigan
Georgia Tech (4-4; 2-3) at North Carolina (1-6; 1-4)- 12:15, ACCN
Pick: Georgia Tech
Texas State (2-6; 0-4) at Georgia State (2-6; 1-3)- 2:00, ESPN+
Pick: Georgia State
San Jose State (1-7; 1-3) at Wyoming (3-6; 1-4)- 2:00
Pick: Wyoming
South Alabama (2-6; 1-3) at Arkansas State (4-4; 1-3)- 3:00, ESPN+
Pick: Arkansas State
Georgia Southern (7-1; 4-0) at UL Monroe (4-4; 2-2)- 3:00, ESPN3
Pick: UL Monroe
Marshall (5-2; 3-1) at Southern Miss (5-3; 4-1)- 3:00
Pick: Southern Miss
(6) Georgia (7-1; 5-1) at (9) Kentucky (7-1; 5-1)- 3:30, CBS: Huge game in Lexington and perhaps the biggest Kentucky football game this century. This game will be competitive for the most part, but I like the Bulldogs in a close one.
Pick: Georgia
(13) West Virginia (6-1; 4-1) at (17) Texas (6-2; 4-1)- 3:30, FOX: Huge game in the Big-12 and this could go a long way to determine if one of these teams go to the Big-12 Championship game. The Longhorns at home are the safer pick here as long as Sam Ehlinger is healthy.
Pick: Texas
(16) Iowa (6-2; 3-2) at Purdue (4-4; 3-2)- 3:30, ESPN2: Here's a fun game. Boiler up for a win!
Pick: Purdue
Florida State (4-4; 2-4) at (21) NC State (5-2; 2-2)- 3:30, ABC
Pick: NC State
Liberty (4-3) at Massachusetts (3-6)- 3:30
Pick: Liberty
UTEP (0-8; 0-4) at Rice (1-8; 0-5)- 3:30, ESPN3
Pick: Rice
Tulane (3-5; 2-2) at South Florida (7-1; 3-1)- 3:30, CBSSN
Pick: South Florida
Navy (2-6; 1-3) at Cincinnati (7-1; 3-1)- 3:30, ESPNU
Pick: Cincinnati
Louisiana (4-4; 2-2) at Troy (6-2; 4-0)- 3:30, ESPN+
Pick: Troy
Kansas State (3-5; 1-4) at TCU (3-5; 1-4)- 3:30, FS1
Pick: Kansas State
Minnesota (4-4; 1-4) at Illinois (3-5; 1-4)- 3:30, BTN
Pick: Minnesota
(14) Penn State (6-2; 3-2) at (5) Michigan (7-1; 5-0)- 3:45, ESPN: Fun game on the Disney Mothership. The Wolverines season has been a redemption tour for the most part after disappointing last season and that continues here with a big win over the Nittany Lions.
Pick: Michigan
(22) Boston College (6-2; 3-1) at Virginia Tech (4-3; 3-1)- 3:45, ACCN: With how awful the Hokies were last week without their quarterback, I can't pick them here. The logic reason to pick the Hokies is because the Eagles are looking ahead to their big one against Clemson next week. But, I think the Eagles survive a close one here.
Pick: Boston College
Missouri (4-4; 0-4) at (11) Florida (6-2; 4-2)- 4:00, SECN
Pick: Florida
(15) Utah (6-2; 4-2) at Arizona State (4-4; 2-3)- 4:00, Pac-12N: Classic trap spot for the Utes. Herm Edwards gets another big win.
Pick: Arizona State
Charlotte (4-4; 3-2) at Tennessee (3-5; 1-4)- 4:00, SECN+
Pick: Tennessee
Alcorn State (6-2; 5-1) at New Mexico State (2-7)- 4:00
Pick: New Mexico State
Appalachian State (5-2; 3-1) at Coastal Carolina (5-3; 2-2)- 5:00, ESPN+
Pick: Appalachian State
Connecticut (1-7; 0-4) at Tulsa (1-7; 0-4)- 7:00, CBSSN
Pick: Tulsa
Houston (7-1; 4-0) at SMU (3-5; 2-2)- 7:00, ESPNU: Possible trap for the Cougars? I say so, but they barely survive.
Pick: Houston
Duke (5-3; 1-3) at Miami (5-3; 2-2)- 7:00, ESPN2: Upset special by the Blue Devils, who always thrive as underdogs. Plus, the Canes have not looked good at all of late.
Pick: Duke
(4) Notre Dame (8-0) at Northwestern (5-3; 5-1)- 7:15, ESPN: The Wildcats thrive as underdogs too, but they always seem to disappoint in primetime. Irish pull away late in this one.
Pick: Notre Dame
Louisiana Tech (6-2; 4-1) at (18) Mississippi State (5-3; 2-3)- 7:30, SECN: Don't be shocked if this game is close for a while.
Pick: Mississippi State
UCLA (2-6; 2-3) at Oregon (5-3; 2-3)- 7:30, FOX: Chip Kelly's return to Eugene will result in another L for the Bruins.
Pick: Oregon
FAU (3-5; 1-3) at FIU (6-2; 4-0)- 7:30
Pick: FIU
UTSA (3-5; 2-2) at UAB (7-1; 5-0)- 7:30
Pick: UAB
(1) Alabama (8-0; 5-0) at (3) LSU (7-1; 4-1)- 8:00, CBS: Game of the year in College Football so far! GameDay is on hand for this. The winner of this game in all likelihood will be in the College Football Playoff. All that said, the Tide are the better team and the best in the country led by Heisman favorite Tua Tagovailoa and will get the win in Baton Rouge.
Pick: Alabama
(7) Oklahoma (7-1; 4-1) at Texas Tech (5-3; 3-2)- 8:00, ABC: Saturday nights in Lubbock always tend to be wild. Expect a high scoring affair and for Kyler Murray and the Sooners to keep their playoff hopes alive.
Pick: Oklahoma
Stanford (5-3; 3-2) at Washington (6-3; 4-2)- 9:00, Pac-12N: I'm sure no one expected this game to be on Pac-12 Network before the season began considering these teams were thought out to be ranked. Huskies win it at home.
Pick: Washington
USC (4-4; 3-3) at Oregon State (2-6; 1-4)- 10:00, FS1: Clay Helton will survive another week as his team will survive in Corvallis.
Pick: USC
BYU (4-4) at Boise State (6-2; 4-1)- 10:15, ESPN2
Pick: Boise State
San Diego State (6-2; 3-1) at New Mexico (3-5; 1-3)- 10:15, ESPNU

2018 NFL Week 8 Picks
Here are my picks for week eight of the 2018 NFL Season.

Miami Dolphins (4-3) vs Houston Texans (4-3)- 8:25, FOX/NFLN: This game is not sexy in terms of the eye test, but both teams are still in the hunt in the AFC picture. The Dolphins are coming off a disappointing home loss against the Detroit Lions. The Texans are coming off a huge road win in Jacksonville against the free-falling Jaguars to take first place in the AFC South. The Texans have more talent than the Dolphins, who are still without Ryan Tannehill and Brock Osweiler will hear the boos from the Texans fans after his disappointing short tenure there and DeShaun Watson will lead the Texans to their fifth straight win.
Prediction: Houston 27, Miami 19.
Sunday, October 28th
Philadelphia Eagles (3-4) vs Jacksonville Jaguars (3-4) (London); 9:30, NFLN: It's too bad this game is not as enticing as it would have been if these teams lived up to expectations. The Eagles are coming off a brutal home loss against the Carolina Panthers in which they blew a 17-point 4th quarter lead in. The Jags are coming off a bad home loss against the Houston Texans in which Blake Bortles was benched in. Bortles is unbeaten in his career in London, but that's irrelevant. Give me the reigning champs to win their first London game.
Prediction: Philadelphia 27, Jacksonville 20.
New York Jets (3-4) at Chicago Bears (3-3)- 1:00, CBS: The Jets are coming off a disappointing home loss against the Minnesota Vikings. The Bears are coming off a brutal home loss against the New England Patriots. The Bears are poised to breakthrough against an inferior Jets team that's suffering injuries and I think they will.
Prediction: Chicago 30, NY Jets 17.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-3) at Cincinnati Bengals (4-3)- 1:00, FOX: The Bucs are coming off an overtime home win over the Cleveland Browns. The Bengals are coming off a disastrous Sunday night road loss in Kansas City against the Chiefs. The Bengals really need this game in all ways and they are flat out the better team and they'll take care of the Bucs at home.
Prediction: Cincinnati 33, Tampa Bay 24.
Seattle Seahawks (3-3) at Detroit Lions (3-3)- 1:00, FOX: The Seahawks are coming off their bye and two weeks ago they destroyed the Oakland Raiders in London. The Lions are coming off a nice road win in Miami against the Dolphins. I see a bit of a letdown here for the Lions and this is the Seahawks first game since tragically losing owner Paul Allen. Russell Wilson leads the Seahawks to a nice road win.
Prediction: Seattle 27, Detroit 23.
Denver Broncos (3-4) at Kansas City Chiefs (6-1)- 1:00, CBS: The Broncos are coming off a huge Thursday night road win in Glendale against the Cardinals. The Chiefs are coming off a big time Sunday night home win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The Chiefs are so dominant especially in their own building so give me the Chiefs to defeat the Broncos for the second time this season.
Prediction: Kansas City 30, Denver 16.
Washington Redskins (4-2) at New York Giants (1-6)- 1:00, FOX: The Redskins are coming off a big home win over the Dallas Cowboys to keep first place in the division. The Giants are coming off a Monday night road loss in Atlanta against the Falcons. The Giants are a mess and they traded away two defensive starters to signal they are rebuilding. The Redskins win and take advantage of it.
Prediction: Washington 34, NY Giants 20.
Cleveland Browns (2-4-1) at Pittsburgh Steelers (3-2-1)- 1:00, CBS: The Browns are coming off a tough overtime road loss in Tampa Bay against the Buccaneers. The Steelers are coming off their bye and two weeks ago they won in Cincinnati against the Bengals. The Steelers play the Ravens next week so there's a case for a look ahead, but I don't see it. Steelers win big at home.
Prediction: Pittsburgh 36, Cleveland 20.
Baltimore Ravens (4-3) at Carolina Panthers (4-2)- 1:00, CBS: The Ravens are coming off a crushing home loss courtesy of a missed extra point by Justin Tucker. The Panthers are coming off a big time win in Philadelphia against the Eagles. The Ravens have the Steelers next week and I believe that the Panthers will win this game as the Ravens peek ahead a little bit.
Prediction: Carolina 30, Baltimore 27.
Indianapolis Colts (2-5) at Oakland Raiders (1-6)- 4:05, CBS: Awful game on paper. The Colts are coming off a home win over the Buffalo Bills. The Raiders are coming off a bye and two weeks ago they lost badly in London against the Seattle Seahawks. The Raiders traded away Amari Cooper this week and they're not even trying. Andrew Luck leads the Colts to another win over an inferior team.
Prediction: Indianapolis 31, Oakland 17.
Green Bay Packers (3-2-1) at Los Angeles Rams (7-0)- 4:25, FOX: The Packers are coming off their bye and two weeks ago they won a close one at home over the San Francisco 49ers on a Monday night. The Rams are coming off yet another win this time a divisional road game in Santa Clara against the 49ers. The Packers are 9-point 'dog which is the largest in the career of Aaron Rodgers and that's because the Rams are that much better than everyone else. That shows again here.
Prediction: LA Rams 36, Green Bay 23.
San Francisco 49ers (2-5) at Arizona Cardinals (1-6)- 4:25, FOX: Another terrible game. The 49ers are coming off a bad home loss against the Los Angeles Rams. The Cardinals are coming off a terrible Thursday night home loss against the Denver Broncos. Like I said, awful game among the worst you'll see and Josh Rosen isn't even healthy. CJ Bethard and the Niners win.
Prediction: San Francisco 20, Arizona 17.
New Orleans Saints (5-1) at Minnesota Vikings (4-2-1)- 8:20, NBC: One of the best games you'll see all season! The rematch of the famous Minneapolis Miracle from last January! The Saints are coming off a road win in Baltimore against the Ravens in a game they probably should have lost. The Vikings are coming off a road win in East Rutherford against the Jets. I absolutely love the Vikings at home at night to win another entertaining game against the Saints.
Prediction: Minnesota 27, New Orleans 24.
Monday, October 29th
New England Patriots (5-2) at Buffalo Bills (2-5)- 8:15, ESPN: The Pats are coming off a close call of a road win in Chicago against the Bears. The Bills are coming off a road loss in Indianapolis against the Colts. Derek Anderson is probably starting again for the Bills and he's old and awful. Pats win big and it's a lock.
Prediction: New England 37, Buffalo 19.
Thursday, October 25th
Miami Dolphins (4-3) vs Houston Texans (4-3)- 8:25, FOX/NFLN: This game is not sexy in terms of the eye test, but both teams are still in the hunt in the AFC picture.

Pick: Western Michigan
(25) Appalachian State (5-1; 3-0) at Georgia Southern (6-1; 3-0)- 7:30, ESPNU: Sneaky good Sun Belt game here. The winner of this game could very well be in the Sun Belt championship game. This is a tough call, but I like the Mountaineers to keep the number by them and win their sixth straight game.
Pick: Appalachian State
Georgia Tech (3-4; 1-3) at Virginia Tech (4-2; 3-0)- 7:30, ESPN: Josh Jackson might be out for this game, but no way I'm picking against the Hokies in a weeknight home conference game against an inferior opponent.

Pick: FAU
Miami (5-2; 2-1) at Boston College (5-2; 2-1)- 7:00, ESPN: This game would have been more intriguing if these teams hadn't dropped a few games that they weren't supposed to. That said, AJ Dillon leads the Eagles to a big win here.

Pick: Colorado
(9) Florida (6-1; 4-1) vs (7) Georgia (6-1; 4-1) (Jacksonville)- 3:30, CBS: This should be a fun one from Jacksonville with GameDay on hand. The winner of this game is in all likelihood going to the SEC Championship game and I like the Bulldogs in this spot over Dan Mullen's team.

Pick: Oklahoma
(18) Iowa (6-1; 3-1) at (17) Penn State (5-2; 2-2)- 3:30, ESPN: This is a big spot for the Hawkeyes and if they are to get a win here, they'd put themselves in the conversation for the Big-10 and the College Football Playoff perhaps. I say they don't get it done in State College.
Pick: Penn State
(21) South Florida (7-0; 3-0) at Houston (6-1; 3-0)- 3:30, ABC/ESPN2: The Bulls are ranked, but that will go away after they suffer their first loss of the season at the hands of the Cougars, who should be ranked next week after a win.

Pick: BYU
Cincinnati (6-1; 2-1) at SMU (3-4; 2-1)- 3:30, CBSSN: I want to pick the outright upset with the Stangs, but I don't have the balls to do it. Bearcats win a close one on the road.
Pick: Cincinnati
(12) Kentucky (6-1; 4-1) at Missouri (4-3; 0-3)- 4:00, SECN: The Tigers get a much needed win that's not really an upset since they are a 7-point favorite.

New Mexico (3-4; 1-2) at Utah State (6-1; 3-0)- 4:00
Pick: Utah State
Rice (1-7; 0-4) at North Texas (6-2; 2-2)- 4:00, ESPN+

Pick: UNLV
(14) Washington State (6-1; 3-1) at (24) Stanford (5-2; 3-1)- 7:00, FS1: Letdown game for the Cougars after their big win over Oregon. Cougs "Coug It" and the Cardinal get a big win.
Pick: Stanford
(16) Texas A&M (5-2; 3-1) at Mississippi State (4-3; 1-3)- 7:00, ESPN: The Bulldogs have been very Jekyll & Hyde this season. The Aggies are the safer bet here on the road.
Pick: Texas A&M
(22) NC State (5-1; 2-1) at Syracuse (5-2; 2-2)- 7:00, ESPN2: Trap game for the Wolfpack and Dino Baber's squad becomes bowl eligible already.

Pick: Notre Dame
(6) Texas (6-1; 4-0) at Oklahoma State (4-3; 1-3)- 8:00, ABC: What a great game here. The Cowboys have been up and down all season and I think they get a big win here to hand the Longhorns their first Big-12 loss of the season.
Pick: Texas
(19) Oregon (5-2; 2-2) at Arizona (3-5; 2-3)- 10:30, ESPN: If Khalil Tate plays here, the Wildcats have a real chance here. I say he plays but Justin Herbert and the Ducks survive on the road.
Pick: Oregon
Hawaii (6-3; 3-1) at Fresno State (6-1; 3-0)- 10:30, ESPN2
Pick: Fresno State
San Diego State (6-1; 3-0) at Nevada (4-4; 2-2)- 10:30, ESPNU: The Wolf Pack pull off their second straight upset and this time against a better team in the Aztecs.

Pick: BYU
Cincinnati (6-1; 2-1) at SMU (3-4; 2-1)- 3:30, CBSSN: I want to pick the outright upset with the Stangs, but I don't have the balls to do it. Bearcats win a close one on the road.
Pick: Cincinnati
(12) Kentucky (6-1; 4-1) at Missouri (4-3; 0-3)- 4:00, SECN: The Tigers get a much needed win that's not really an upset since they are a 7-point favorite.

New Mexico (3-4; 1-2) at Utah State (6-1; 3-0)- 4:00
Pick: Utah State
Rice (1-7; 0-4) at North Texas (6-2; 2-2)- 4:00, ESPN+

Pick: UNLV
(14) Washington State (6-1; 3-1) at (24) Stanford (5-2; 3-1)- 7:00, FS1: Letdown game for the Cougars after their big win over Oregon. Cougs "Coug It" and the Cardinal get a big win.
Pick: Stanford
(16) Texas A&M (5-2; 3-1) at Mississippi State (4-3; 1-3)- 7:00, ESPN: The Bulldogs have been very Jekyll & Hyde this season. The Aggies are the safer bet here on the road.
Pick: Texas A&M
(22) NC State (5-1; 2-1) at Syracuse (5-2; 2-2)- 7:00, ESPN2: Trap game for the Wolfpack and Dino Baber's squad becomes bowl eligible already.
Pick: Syracuse
Boise State (5-2; 3-1) at Air Force (3-4; 1-3)- 7:00, CBSSN
Pick: Boise State

Pick: Notre Dame
(6) Texas (6-1; 4-0) at Oklahoma State (4-3; 1-3)- 8:00, ABC: What a great game here. The Cowboys have been up and down all season and I think they get a big win here to hand the Longhorns their first Big-12 loss of the season.
Pick: Texas
(19) Oregon (5-2; 2-2) at Arizona (3-5; 2-3)- 10:30, ESPN: If Khalil Tate plays here, the Wildcats have a real chance here. I say he plays but Justin Herbert and the Ducks survive on the road.
Pick: Oregon
Hawaii (6-3; 3-1) at Fresno State (6-1; 3-0)- 10:30, ESPN2
Pick: Fresno State
San Diego State (6-1; 3-0) at Nevada (4-4; 2-2)- 10:30, ESPNU: The Wolf Pack pull off their second straight upset and this time against a better team in the Aztecs.

2018 World Series Prediction
Here is my prediction for the 2018 World Series.
(N2) Los Angeles Dodgers vs (A1) Boston Red Sox: FOX couldn't be happier with this matchup as ratings will be through the roof with two of the premier franchises in the sport. The Dodgers pose a very good lineup when their clicking led by Manny Machado, NLCS MVP Cody Bellinger, Yasiel Puig, Matt Kemp, Justin Turner and Max Muncy. The Red Sox lineup has been the best in the sport all season long led by Mookie Betts, Andrew Benintendi, JD Martinez, and Xander Bogaerts. The Dodgers rotation has two of the three best starters in the series with Clayton Kershaw and Walker Buehler and behind them are Hy-Jun Riu and Rich Hill. The Red Sox rotation has been solid in the postseason led by Chris Sale, David Price, Nathan Eovaldi, and Rick Porcello. The Dodgers bullpen has been solid in the postseason led by closer Kenley Jansen, Pedro Baez, Ryan Madson, Julio Urias, and starters Kenta Maeda and Alex Wood had some moments as well out of the pen. The Sox pen has exceeded expectations throughout the playoffs with the likes of Joe Kelly, Matt Barnes, Ryan Brasier, and Porcello and Eovaldi have seen time out of the pen. Closer Craig Kimbrel meanwhile has struggled in the playoffs. That said, this is the Sox year and everything is going right for them right now as they'll win their fourth World Championship this century.
Prediction: Red Sox in six games.
World Series MVP: JD Martinez.

2018 NFL Week 7 Picks
Here are my picks for week seven of the 2018 NFL Season.
Thursday, October 18th
Denver Broncos (2-4) vs Arizona Cardinals (1-5)- 8:20, FOX/NFLN: The Broncos are coming off a home loss against the Los Angeles Rams. The Cardinals are coming off a road loss in Minneapolis against the Vikings. Case Keenum has been bad the last 4 weeks and the Broncos run defense has been shockingly awful the past few weeks. I like Josh Rosen and David Johnson to lead the Cards to a win.
Prediction: Arizona 27, Denver 20.
Sunday, October 21st
Tennessee Titans (3-3) vs Los Angeles Chargers (4-2)- (London); 9:30, CBS: The Titans are coming off an awful shutout home loss against the Baltimore Ravens. The Chargers are coming off a dominant road win in Cleveland against the Browns. The Chargers has perhaps their best effort of the season last week and they'll rolling and they'll win big here in London.
Prediction: LA Chargers 30, Tennessee 17.
New England Patriots (4-2) at Chicago Bears (3-2)- 1:00, CBS: The Patriots are coming off a big home win over the Kansas City Chiefs. The Bears are coming off a brutal overtime road loss in Miami against the Dolphins. The Bears are an enticing pick here, but I don't have the guts to pick to do it due to the fact the Bears have some injuries and Khalil Mack is not 100%. Pats win a close one.
Prediction: New England 27, Chicago 20.
Buffalo Bills (2-4) at Indianapolis Colts (1-5)- 1:00, CBS: The Bills are coming off a tough road loss in Houston against the Texans in which Josh Allen got hurt in. The Colts are coming off a road loss in East Rutherford against the Jets. Derek Anderson (!!!!) is starting for the Bills over Nathan Peterman and the Colts offense has thrived against bad defenses this season and I like them to get their second win.
Prediction: Indianapolis 33, Buffalo 16.
Detroit Lions (3-2) at Miami Dolphins (4-2)- 1:00, FOX: The Lions are coming off a bye and two weeks ago they won at home against the Packers. The Dolphins are coming off an overtime home win over the Chicago Bears. The Dolphins are starting Brock Osweiler again for the injured Ryan Tannehill and I think they pull their second straight upset over an overrated Lions team.
Prediction: Miami 26, Detroit 20.
Minnesota Vikings (3-2-1) at New York Jets (3-3)- 1:00, FOX: The Vikings are coming off a home win over the Arizona Cardinals. The Jets are coming off a home win over the Philadelphia Eagles. This could be a trap game for the Vikings, but they are just better than the Jets in all aspects so I expect them to win here.
Prediction: Minnesota 26, NY Jets 20.
Carolina Panthers (3-2) at Philadelphia Eagles (3-3)- 1:00, FOX: The Panthers are coming off a road loss in Landover against the Redskins. The Eagles are coming off a dominant divisional Thursday night road win in East Rutherford against the Giants. The Eagles seem like they got their mojo last week and I think they win again, expect a much closer game against a more superior opponent in the Panthers rather than the lowly Giants.
Prediction: Philadelphia 27, Carolina 24.
Cleveland Browns (2-3-1) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-3)- 1:00, FOX: The Browns are coming off a bad home loss against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Bucs are coming off a divisional road loss in Atlanta against the Falcons. The Bucs have the leagues worst defense and I think Baker Mayfield and the Browns bounce back and get a road win.
Prediction: Cleveland 33, Tampa Bay 27.
Houston Texans (3-3) at Jacksonville Jaguars (3-3)- 1:00, CBS: The Texans are coming off a home win over the Buffalo Bills and it took them a pick six to seal the win. The Jaguars are coming off an awful road loss in Arlington against the Cowboys. Blake Bortles has not played well for most of the season and I like the Texans here to get above the .500 mark.
Prediction: Houston 24, Jacksonville 20.
New Orleans Saints (4-1) at Baltimore Ravens (4-2)- 4:05, FOX: The Saints are coming off their bye and two weeks ago they creamed the Washington Redskins at home on Monday Night Football in which Drew Brees broke the all time passing yards record. The Ravens are coming off a dominant shutout road win in Nashville against the Titans. This should be an entertaining game with a lot of scoring and I like the Ravens here at home.
Prediction: Baltimore 30, New Orleans 26.
Los Angeles Rams (6-0) at San Francisco 49ers (1-5)- 4:25, CBS: The Rams are coming off a road win in Denver against the Broncos. The 49ers are coming off a Monday night road loss in Green Bay against the Packers. The Niners should be proud of their effort, but they will have a letdown here at home against the leagues best team, which is my lock of the week.
Prediction: LA Rams 30, San Francisco 20.
Dallas Cowboys (3-3) at Washington Redskins (3-2)- 4:25, CBS: The Cowboys are coming off a dominant home win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Redskins are coming off a nice home win over the Carolina Panthers. The Cowboys are clearly a better team at home than they are on the road and that continues here as Alex Smith and the Redskins hang on to first place in the NFC East.
Prediction: Washington 27, Dallas 20.
Cincinnati Bengals (4-2) at Kansas City Chiefs (5-1)- 8:30, NBC: Great game from a team records standpoint. The Bengals are coming off a heartbreaking divisional home loss against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Chiefs are coming off a tough Sunday night road loss in New England against the Patriots on a Stephen Gostkowski field goal as time expired. This has the makings of a big time Chiefs bounce back at home. Also, don't forget Andy Dalton's bad road primetime games history.
Prediction: Kansas City 34, Cincinnati 20.
Monday, October 22nd
New York Giants (1-5) at Atlanta Falcons (2-4)- 8:20, ESPN: The World Wide Leader certainly didn't expect this to be this bad of a game. The Giants are coming off a terrible Thursday night divisional home loss against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Falcons are coming off a divisional home win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I expect the Giants offense to perform better (since it tends to do better away from MetLife Stadium this season), but the Falcons have more talent on both sides of the ball and they should win this one at home.
Prediction: Atlanta 34, NY Giants 27.
Thursday, October 18th
Denver Broncos (2-4) vs Arizona Cardinals (1-5)- 8:20, FOX/NFLN: The Broncos are coming off a home loss against the Los Angeles Rams. The Cardinals are coming off a road loss in Minneapolis against the Vikings. Case Keenum has been bad the last 4 weeks and the Broncos run defense has been shockingly awful the past few weeks. I like Josh Rosen and David Johnson to lead the Cards to a win.
Prediction: Arizona 27, Denver 20.
Sunday, October 21st
Tennessee Titans (3-3) vs Los Angeles Chargers (4-2)- (London); 9:30, CBS: The Titans are coming off an awful shutout home loss against the Baltimore Ravens. The Chargers are coming off a dominant road win in Cleveland against the Browns. The Chargers has perhaps their best effort of the season last week and they'll rolling and they'll win big here in London.
Prediction: LA Chargers 30, Tennessee 17.
New England Patriots (4-2) at Chicago Bears (3-2)- 1:00, CBS: The Patriots are coming off a big home win over the Kansas City Chiefs. The Bears are coming off a brutal overtime road loss in Miami against the Dolphins. The Bears are an enticing pick here, but I don't have the guts to pick to do it due to the fact the Bears have some injuries and Khalil Mack is not 100%. Pats win a close one.
Prediction: New England 27, Chicago 20.
Buffalo Bills (2-4) at Indianapolis Colts (1-5)- 1:00, CBS: The Bills are coming off a tough road loss in Houston against the Texans in which Josh Allen got hurt in. The Colts are coming off a road loss in East Rutherford against the Jets. Derek Anderson (!!!!) is starting for the Bills over Nathan Peterman and the Colts offense has thrived against bad defenses this season and I like them to get their second win.
Prediction: Indianapolis 33, Buffalo 16.
Detroit Lions (3-2) at Miami Dolphins (4-2)- 1:00, FOX: The Lions are coming off a bye and two weeks ago they won at home against the Packers. The Dolphins are coming off an overtime home win over the Chicago Bears. The Dolphins are starting Brock Osweiler again for the injured Ryan Tannehill and I think they pull their second straight upset over an overrated Lions team.
Prediction: Miami 26, Detroit 20.
Minnesota Vikings (3-2-1) at New York Jets (3-3)- 1:00, FOX: The Vikings are coming off a home win over the Arizona Cardinals. The Jets are coming off a home win over the Philadelphia Eagles. This could be a trap game for the Vikings, but they are just better than the Jets in all aspects so I expect them to win here.
Prediction: Minnesota 26, NY Jets 20.
Carolina Panthers (3-2) at Philadelphia Eagles (3-3)- 1:00, FOX: The Panthers are coming off a road loss in Landover against the Redskins. The Eagles are coming off a dominant divisional Thursday night road win in East Rutherford against the Giants. The Eagles seem like they got their mojo last week and I think they win again, expect a much closer game against a more superior opponent in the Panthers rather than the lowly Giants.
Prediction: Philadelphia 27, Carolina 24.
Cleveland Browns (2-3-1) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-3)- 1:00, FOX: The Browns are coming off a bad home loss against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Bucs are coming off a divisional road loss in Atlanta against the Falcons. The Bucs have the leagues worst defense and I think Baker Mayfield and the Browns bounce back and get a road win.
Prediction: Cleveland 33, Tampa Bay 27.
Houston Texans (3-3) at Jacksonville Jaguars (3-3)- 1:00, CBS: The Texans are coming off a home win over the Buffalo Bills and it took them a pick six to seal the win. The Jaguars are coming off an awful road loss in Arlington against the Cowboys. Blake Bortles has not played well for most of the season and I like the Texans here to get above the .500 mark.
Prediction: Houston 24, Jacksonville 20.
New Orleans Saints (4-1) at Baltimore Ravens (4-2)- 4:05, FOX: The Saints are coming off their bye and two weeks ago they creamed the Washington Redskins at home on Monday Night Football in which Drew Brees broke the all time passing yards record. The Ravens are coming off a dominant shutout road win in Nashville against the Titans. This should be an entertaining game with a lot of scoring and I like the Ravens here at home.
Prediction: Baltimore 30, New Orleans 26.
Los Angeles Rams (6-0) at San Francisco 49ers (1-5)- 4:25, CBS: The Rams are coming off a road win in Denver against the Broncos. The 49ers are coming off a Monday night road loss in Green Bay against the Packers. The Niners should be proud of their effort, but they will have a letdown here at home against the leagues best team, which is my lock of the week.
Prediction: LA Rams 30, San Francisco 20.
Dallas Cowboys (3-3) at Washington Redskins (3-2)- 4:25, CBS: The Cowboys are coming off a dominant home win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Redskins are coming off a nice home win over the Carolina Panthers. The Cowboys are clearly a better team at home than they are on the road and that continues here as Alex Smith and the Redskins hang on to first place in the NFC East.
Prediction: Washington 27, Dallas 20.
Cincinnati Bengals (4-2) at Kansas City Chiefs (5-1)- 8:30, NBC: Great game from a team records standpoint. The Bengals are coming off a heartbreaking divisional home loss against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Chiefs are coming off a tough Sunday night road loss in New England against the Patriots on a Stephen Gostkowski field goal as time expired. This has the makings of a big time Chiefs bounce back at home. Also, don't forget Andy Dalton's bad road primetime games history.
Prediction: Kansas City 34, Cincinnati 20.
Monday, October 22nd
New York Giants (1-5) at Atlanta Falcons (2-4)- 8:20, ESPN: The World Wide Leader certainly didn't expect this to be this bad of a game. The Giants are coming off a terrible Thursday night divisional home loss against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Falcons are coming off a divisional home win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I expect the Giants offense to perform better (since it tends to do better away from MetLife Stadium this season), but the Falcons have more talent on both sides of the ball and they should win this one at home.
Prediction: Atlanta 34, NY Giants 27.

Pick: Western Michigan
(1) Alabama (7-0; 4-0) at Tennessee (3-3; 1-2)- 3:30, CBS: Due to the injury to Tua Tagovailoa, this game will be closer than the experts think as the Tide still get the road win.
Pick: Alabama
(16) NC State (5-0; 2-0) at (3) Clemson (6-0; 3-0)- 3:30, ESPN: This game in all likelihood decides the Atlantic Division and the Tigers take it in a close one over Ryan Finley and the Wolfpack.
Pick: Clemson
Colorado (5-1; 2-1) at (15) Washington (5-2; 3-1)- 3:30, FOX: The Huskies get the bounce back win here after the tough OT loss in Eugene.
Pick: Washington
(18) Penn State (4-2; 1-2) at Indiana (4-3; 1-3)- 3:30, ABC: Trap game for the Nittany Lions? Possibly. But, I see a bounce back after the tough loss against Michigan State.

Pick: Texas Tech
Memphis (4-3; 1-3) at Missouri (3-3; 0-3)- 4:00, SECN: I do think that Memphis can steal this game, but Missouri has the better quarterback in Drew Lock and they'll get the win.
Pick: Missouri
California (3-3; 0-3) at Oregon State (1-5; 0-3)- 4:00, Pac-12N: Upset special in Corvallis as Jonathan Smith gets his first conference win.

Pick: Georgia Southern
Mississippi State (4-2; 1-2) at (5) LSU (6-1; 3-1)- 7:00, ESPN: Possible letdown spot for the Tigers, but I say they win a close one in a nighttime home game.

(12) Oregon (5-1; 2-1) at (25) Washington State (5-1; 2-1)- 7:30, FOX: GameDay finally heads to Pullman. Fifteen years in the making. The Ol Crimson Flag. You know the story. Now the question is, will they Coug it? It's possible with Justin Herbert making a case to be a top three pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, but I say Pullman is rocking and the Cougars don't Coug it.
Pick: Washington State
Vanderbilt (3-4; 0-4) at (14) Kentucky (5-1; 3-1)- 7:30, SECN
