For Old Alma Mater

After a week of writing poetry in iambic pentameter, shooting skeet and calculating the expected risk-adjusted return for every stock in the S&P 500, this week’s picks among the Renaissance men in pads, for entertainment purposes only, are:

BYU +7 over Texas (Texas covered by just ½ point over Rice last week)

Penn State +10 over Alabama (battle of two two-quarterback systems)

Stanford -20 ½ over Duke (Andrew Luck and his Palo Alto palominos too much for tobacco heiresses)

Georgia +3 over South Carolina (Desperate Dawgs save Richt’s job)

Nevada +26 ½ over Oregon (Even without Kaepernick loading the pistol formation, Chris Ault’s Wolfpack covers easily)

100 ephemeral euros each.

We were 3-2 last week, which netted the kitty 80 meows.

Note: We ended the baseball season, netting 2,600 horsehides.
