By the way, the fourth-annual Walter/Joker Annual Challenge is on, as I’ll be competing with the Joker’s College Picks. We each pick five games and see who does the best each week.


Arkansas at LSU
Line: LSU by 12.

Friday, 2:30 p.m.

As a disclaimer, don’t go nuts with my college football picks. I’m much better at picking NFL games (though not this year); I’m just doing these upon request. Follow @walterfootball for updates.

Let’s get right to the big game. This is it for LSU. If the Tigers win this, they go to the SEC Championship, and if they win that, they get the chance to play for the co-national championship (assuming Houston keeps on winning). If the Tigers fall, however, their season is over. That’s a lot of pressure on a group of 18- to 22-year-olds. Arkansas is playing with house money here.

College Football Pick: Arkansas +12 (3 Units) — Incorrect; -$330







Colorado at Utah
Line: Utah by 22.

Friday, 3:30 p.m.

I don’t see how this game is going to be close. To quote Franchize, “Colorado is f***ing trash.”

College Football Pick: Utah -22 (2 Units) — Incorrect; -$220






Duke at North Carolina
Line: North Carolina by 12.5.

Saturday, 3:30 p.m.

This is a pretty big rivalry, so I expect Duke to keep it close against a North Carolina team that might not be interested.

College Football Pick: Duke +12.5 (1 Unit) — Incorrect; -$110




Illinois at Minnesota
Line: Illinois by 10.5.

Saturday, 3:30 p.m.

I know Minnesota sucks, but Illinois has dropped five in a row. They don’t deserve to be double-digit road favorites.

College Football Pick: Minnesota +10.5 (1 Unit) — Correct; +$100






Ole Miss at Mississippi State
Line: Mississippi State by 17.

Saturday, 7:00 p.m.

Mississippi State is coming off a tough loss, and I doubt they’ll be up for battling their lesser in-state rival.

College Football Pick: Ole Miss +17 (2 Units) — Incorrect; -$220
