Each week, our Feature Picks examine the computer's projections and select the games that us humans agree with. This week we have 5 'Easy Pickins' selections and 1 each in our 'Upsets' and 'Hold Your Horses' category.
Every computer-projected upset pick is featured whether we believe in them or not. There is only one of those this week with Southern Miss at North Texas. Far from being a championship-calibre matchup, these teams have simply not looked good. Southern Miss got blown out 66-24 by Tulane this past Saturday, while. North Texas was tossed by SMU 65-35 in its last outing two weeks ago.
Last week, we agreed with the computer picks of Florida and Tennessee to cover and each did. The computer says each will do it again this week, and we're buying in again. We also like the computer's choices of Air Force, Baylor and Western Kentucky beating the spread in their games.
We agree that it's wise to take the points on North Carolina's 11-point line at Boston College.
