Seeing these unanimous picks rings the warning siren in my head. Let’s see if I can find any second thoughts.

Away Team | Pick % | Spread | Pick % | Home Team | Time |
#22 Virginia Tech | 100% | -13.5 | 0% | East Carolina | 7:30pm |
VT leads the series, but only 9-5. East Carolina won this matchup last year 27-22, which snapped VTs streak of 6 wins in the series. ECU’s biggest loss this year is 15, at West Virginia. This game is home for East Carolina, which is in Greenville, NC. It’s also a night game and you never can trust pirates at night. Not that you can trust them all that much during the day either. In fact, during the night they are probably either drunk or passed out. That analogy fell apart quickly, but still, look out for a loud surly crowd.

Away Team | Pick % | Spread | Pick % | Home Team | Time |
#5 Boise State | 100% | -21.5 | 0% | Louisiana Tech | 8:00pm |
The series is tight. Boise St leads 7-5. Of coures, its been lopsided of late as Boise St has won the last 7. LA Tech last won this game in 2001. Similar to East Carolina this is a home night game for LA Tech and it will be broadcast on ESPNU. In case you weren’t aware, LA Tech is in Ruston, LA. LA Tech is unbeaten at home with an average margin of victory of 31. On the other hand, all their decent opponents have been on the road where they are 0-5. LA Tech seems to start out strong and then let the game get away. Starting strong could keep the game from getting 3 TDs out of hand, right?
