Good teams win, great teams cover Part IV

Before we get started, here are the standings through three

Jeff: 15-3
Brad: 12-6
Joe: 7-11

Now time for part IV


Jeff
College

Ohio State (-17) over Nebraska 
Clemson (-27) over North Carolina 
Miami (OH) (+2.5) over Buffalo

NFL
Texans (-4) over Panthers
Seahawks (-5) over Cardinals 
Steelers (-4) over Bengals

Brad
College
Nebraska (+17) vs. Ohio State
The Huskers are a solid 3-1 Big 10 team getting Ohio State at home in a night game. Memories of Purdue last year, Iowa two years ago and Penn State three years ago are skeletons in the closet for Ohio State.

Alabama (-37.5) over Ole Miss
Last year Ole Miss scored off the get go. Bama went on to score 62 consecutive points and that was at Ole Miss.

Texas Tech (+27.5) against Oklahoma
OU always has some close calls thanks to being in the Big 12. This will be their first. Oklahoma 41, Texas Tech 30.

NFL
Ravens (-6.5) over Browns 
Baker Mayfield is overrated

Patriots (-7) over Bills
The Bills lucked into a 3-0 record. The Patriots have destroyed every team they've played, albeit with two of those wins coming against the Jets and Dolphins.

Giants (-3) over Redskins 
Daniel F'n Dimes baby. When Daniel Jones was picked, I told friends he wasn't going to be a bad player. Jones has shut up his critics including the aforementioned, overrated Mayfield.



Joe 
College 
UVA (+10.5) over Virginia 
I'll believe in Notre Dame beating a ranked opponent by more than one touchdown when I see it.

UcConn (+42.5) over UCF
42 points is a lot of freaking points. I'll always take the dog to cover in that situation.

Ohio State (-17.5) over Nebraska 
The Buckeyes are head and shoulders above anybody in the Big 10. Nebraska shouldn't have been ranked to start the season and isn't as good as its 3-1 record shows. Give me the Bucks.


NFL
Chargers (-14.5) over Dolphins
Miami might be the worst team of all time

Bears (-1.5) over Vikings
That Chicago defense is the real deal. I think the Bears will be just fine playing Kirk Cousins at home.

Broncos (-3) over Jags
We all love Gardner Minshew, but he's never started a road game. Denver is a touch environment, and I think the Broncos are due to get a win. Playing an already sub-par Jacksonville squad with a rookie quarterback is a nice setup.
