Abe’s College Football Picks – Week 5

OklahomaState

It was another mediocre week in Week 4, as I finished 9-4, bringing my season record to 36-17. Here are the Week 5 picks.

Georgia Tech 23, Virginia Tech 14 – This game should be played in the mud with bulldozers and tractors.

South Carolina 41, UCF 23 – Thank everything holy that conference play is here. Wait, what?

Oklahoma State 1,000, West Virginia 0 – 1,000 dollars for OSU, that is.

Miami 54, South Florida 3 – I just want to mention that South Florida has already lost 53-21 to McNeese State and 28-10 to Florida Atlantic this year.

Oregon State 41, Colorado 40 – The Beavers win it on a kick-off return flea-flicker reverse running play in which Sean Mannion laterals to Brandin Cooks who drop-kicks an extra-point for the win. That's just the norm in Corvallis these days.

Georgia 34, LSU 31 – The sun has found its home in the Western sky, and now it's Saturday night in ATHENS! 

Oklahoma 17, Notre Dame 14 – I'm picking against the Irish again, dammit. OU rides the Belldozer. 

Alabama 41, Ole Miss 27 – If Ole Miss is the Confederacy, Nick Saban is U.S. Grant. 

Texas A&M 50, Arkansas 20 – Don't look now, but Johnny Manziel may be playing his way into the top five of the NFL Draft.

Washington 34, Arizona 24 – The only thing Rich Rodriguez was thinking about when he took the Arizona job was how far Tucson is away from Ann Arbor. 

Wisconsin 32, Ohio State 30 – The Buckeyes are upset (pun!) when they can't get a game-winning field goal off because of mass confusion over whether Braxton Miller fumbled on the previous play and time runs out. 

Stanford 41, Washington State 21 – The Cougs compete, but fall off when Craig James captures Mike Leach and locks him in the closet from Matilda. 

Oregon 59, California 17 – The Ducks win this game due to "circumstances".

Arizona State 21, USC 14 – Todd Graham is already scheming how to get the Southern Cal job.
