College Football Week 4 with some Classics. Here are Predictions
I was going to be out of town this weekend in New York, so I was not writing, but with a Nor’Eastern blowing through the City this weekend, it gives me a chance to predict the games.
I was hopeful I would be spending the weekend with my daughters and son-in-law and doing some fun stuff including going to the Giants-Titans game on Sunday. But such is life. And there is a lot of stellar college football this weekend, so I’ll post the scores without much elaboration as I wasn’t expecting to be writing this. I’ll have a lot more elaboration in week 5 and going forward.
Here are this weekend’s predictions.
Last Week: SU: 13-5, Overall, 52-12, 81%. ATS: 12-6, 33-31, 52%. O/U: 7-11, 35-29, 55%.
