I think this Baylor team is a very bad one, and has gotten worse as the season went on. I'm not sure they're going to win another game. Tech/A&M I was completely undecided about. Neither team is any good, and Tech isn't even scoring much this season, unless they get to beat up on Division I-AA schools. I don't like either team, and I wish there was a way they could both lose.

But I like it. Iowa at home as a dog is OK. Being that I am a lover of dogs and a homer for Texas schools, I would place these bets: Rice + 11 against Army. Rice was respectable against UCLA, and 11 points is a lot for Army to give up. Houston + 16.5 against Miami. Houston is not bad and Miami is reeling. Plus, it might rain. Baylor + 1.5 against Kansas St. Baylor is close to breaking through and Kansas St is quickly reverting to its pre-Snyder status. Texas Tech + 2 against A & M. I just can't believe this A & M team is giving up points, especially against Tech. My "contra-Steve, love-the-dog" strategy leaves Iowa+7 as my only "bet" this week. But I like it.

But I don't think it'll make enough of a difference to sway me off those 3 points.

Their D looks very strong and Washington's offense has been pretty unimpressive. I like that Jacksonville game too. Their D looks very strong and Washington's offense has been pretty unimpressive.
