Another crappy one last week at 1-2...that record is creeping closer and closer to .500 
Going with four this weekend:
Arizona State +9 at Cal (2 units)
The Sun Devils have had two weeks to prepare for this one after losing to Georgia. Cal is a weird team to gauge as they can look really good or really bad. The fact that RB Jahvid Best is out for the Bears is not good for them, as he is the focal point of that offense averaging 215 all-purpose yards per game. Best's absence hurts them big time. The Sun Devils can score, so I think they keep it within the number in a big conference showdown.
Memphis -4 at UAB (2 units)
Memphis is better IMO than their 2-3 record indicates. They lost a tough one at Ole Miss, blew a big lead against Rice, and suffered a 1pt loss to Marshall. A couple bounces their way and they're 4-1. They won by DD as an underdog last week. The offense is averaging 468 yards per game and UAB's defense is like swiss cheese. Tulsa and FAU put up 40+ each. Memphis, on a two-game win streak, should win this one by DD against a UAB team yet to defeat a I-A program.
BYU -28.5 at Utah State (2 units)
The Cougars are the best team in CFB this year not from a BCS conference. They are decimating teams behind outstanding QB Max Hall. They have won their last two games 59-0 and 44-0 against teams (UCLA & Wyoming) that are better than Utah State. Against the other two ranked teams Utah State has played, they allowed 66 and 58 points respectively. BYU could win this one by 50 if they wanted. 29 is plenty for me.
Colorado State -2 vs. UNLV (1.5 units)
Tailing Mike333 and Flyers here. They made a pretty convincing argument that there isn't much gas left in the tank for UNLV after a bunch of OT and rivalry games. Plus CSU has won 11 of the last 12 meetings.
Good luck everybody :booz:
