Good teams win, great teams cover part II

By Joe Smeltzer
Hello, all. The boys are back. We're doing something a little different this year.  Instead of the old NFL previews, we are picking four games each from both the college and pro ranks and picking against the spread rather than simply who wins and loses. We only have three NFL games picked at the moment, so we will add an extra one soon enough. Let's get into it.





Joe's Picks
Michigan-Maryland
Maryland +17.5
The Terps aren't too bad this year. Yes, Maryland got shutout by Temple two weeks ago but responded well with a 42-13 win over Minnesota last Saturday. Playing in the Big House will be a challenge for Maryland's sophomore quarterback Kasim Hill, but I think the kid will be up for it. I expect the Wolverines to get the win, but Maryland will make it interesting enough to cover.

Oklahoma-Texas 
Texas -7.5
Kyler Murray is awesome, but I'd be shocked if OU just rolls over their rival here. Texas has been playing well on both sides of the ball since its week one loss to Maryland. Sam Ehlinger isn't as good as Murray, but he's a weapon for the Longhorns and can exploit OU's sometimes suspect defense. I think the Sooners have too much firepower to lose to Texas, but as far as the spread goes, take the Longhorns and the points.

FSU-Miami
Miami -14
Florida State stinks, and Miami's defense is ready to roll. N'Kosi Perry is the real deal, and he'll be ready to carve up the Seminoles. Perry's play at quarterback and a few appearances by the turnover chain will lead to a Hurricanes romp.

Kentucky-Texas A&M
Kentucky straight up
UK isn't just a basketball school anymore. Bennie Snell is one of the best running backs in the country, and Terry Wilson is a dangerous dual-threat QB. The Wildcats proved their worth in Gainsville, and they'll do it again in college station.

NFL
Giants-Panthers
Giants +6.0
Carolina isn't a great football team, and the Giants aren't terrible. I expect the Panthers to win, but New York will cover.

Seahawks-Rams
Seahawks +7.5
When the Seahawks are underdogs at home, take them.

Steelers-Falcons
Steelers -3.5
They're not starting 0-3 at Heinz Field. At least I don't think so...



Jeff's picks
Michigan -17.5
Maryland doesn't play football

Oklahoma -7.5
Oklahoma is the third best team in the country

FSU +14
I think this will be a close game. Therefore, Florida State will cover

Jeff: Kentucky straight up
I think Kentucky continues its hot start


NFL
Panthers -6.0
Carolina is better than it gets credit for

Rams -7.5
Rams are easily the best team in the league

Falcons straight up
The Falcons will win because the Steelers frankly just aren't that good this year


Rutz's picks
Oklahoma -7.5
Oklahoma can score 70 every week

Florida State +14.0
FSU will get up for Miami, but they'll still lose

Maryland +17.5
This game will be too low-scoring for Michigan to cover.

Rutz: Kentucky straight up.
Why does everybody keep underrating the Wildcats?

NFL
Giants + 6.0
Eh I just see this being a weirdly close game

Seahawks + 7.5
I love Seattle as home underdogs



Falcons straight up 
This will be a shootout that comes down to the final couple of minutes.

Ryan's picks
Michigan -17.5
Just because

Texas straight up
The Longhorns will get their first signature win under Tom Herman

Miami -14.0
Florida State is a dumpster fire

Kentucky straight up
This team is athletic

NFL 
Giants +6.0
This Giants team has a lot of weapons and the Panthers are inconsistent. I'll take New York to lose but cover

Rams -7.5
LA is the best team in football, the Seahawks are average at best and Pete Carroll is a bad coach.

Falcons straight up
Steelers defense is bad. This will be a shootout. Take the over.
