Jeff
College

Clemson (-27) over North Carolina

NFL

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.
