Tough Week - Play by the Rules

Honestly, very few lines are jumping out at me this week. That means it's a tough week to pick. When that's the case, I usually play by a few general rules:
1) When bad teams collide, take the points.
2) Play the best teams against bad teams until they prove you wrong.

Rule #1 applies to games like Iowa St and Texas A&M and the pro Tennessee vs. Jacksonville game. Rule #2 applies to OU, Colts, Chargers, and Saints. Sometimes you just have to play the odds.

Oregon St -10
Iowa -17.5
Wisc -6.5
AZ ST +6.5

Iowa St +6.5
Georgia +15.5
