The home team needs to get their act together, so now it's time to venture out into the deep water... into the strain, the struggle... the place where Mel Tucker lives!!

In our quest to go wayyy over .500, the Paper Man has four Easy Money picks for wk 3:

Illinois +11 vs Purdue: Should be a hard fought battle, close game, so give me the Illini getting 11 points.

WVU +17 vs Oklahoma: WVU isn't great, but neither are the Sooners. 17 is a lot to give, I'll take the Neers keeping it competitive.

Rutgers +20.5 vs Michigan: Wolverines have been steamrolling everybody, but Rutgers is no pushover. Rutgers stays within 20.5 points.

MSU -5 vs Nebraska: Sparty is going to drag Husker into the deep water... Scott Frost will not survive. MSU is the only favorite I'm playing this wk, Spartans cover the 5.

Season tally so far: 1-2... but the future is bright!
