LaTech scored 20 points at Boise St. They did it with a nice running game that night, and, a mediocre passing game. Okay, they did lose 49-20, but, they played the Broncos fairly tough. Fresno St.'s defense is at least equal to LaTech's defense, but, the Bulldog running game, and QB play is superior to LaTech's. Factor in coach Pat Hill's teams playing well in road-dog situations(20-14 in that role coming into this year), and a recommendation on Fresno St. is justified.
I gave out an over the totals recommendation, because I believe Boise St. will score on Fresno St., and as I mentioned earlier, if LaTech can score 20 points with less offensive weapons than Fresno St. has( RB Rouse of Fresno has gained 100 yards four games in a row, including over 200 yards his last two games), I believe Fresno can put up at least 24 points, and, that should be enough to get us the over. I know Boise St. will put points on the board.
Other hot streak stories: I was having a particularly good year some years back, prior to the start of the College Edge, and as I was prone to do, I'd give my picks out to those who'd ask me for them. Well, it turned out one of guys I was giving my picks to, was in turn, giving my picks out to a bunch of his friends. One day, one of the neighborhood bookies called me to his "place of business" and calmly asked me to sit down. Now, I didn't owe the guy any money, and, I didn't think I had anything to fear. During the course of our "friendly" conversation, it was brought to my attention that the local neighborhood bookie was getting killed by that guy I was giving my picks to,and,unbeknownst to me, he was also getting trounced by a bunch of this guy's friends. I was asked in a " friendly manner, " if I could stop giving my picks out to the neighborhood guys. His urging would probably have been enough for me to stop giving out my picks, but, it didn't hurt when I was also offered a fee for each of my college picks for the rest of the year. Let's just say I didn't give my picks out to the neighborhood guys the rest of that year.
TOMORROW: Call 267-752-3343 at 11:50p.m. for my 12:00p.m. recommendations.
