NCAA
LSU -3 at Texas A&M: Tigers come off a huge win over South Carolina, but beware of Manziel and the famed 12th man. TEXAS A&M.
Oregon -10 at Arizona St.: A Thursday night special. The lowest previous spread Oregon had to cover was 21. A bargain. OREGON.
Stanford -2 at Cal: The Cardinal are smarting from that goal line ripoff at Notre Dame. Cal is just the right medicine. STANFORD.
Baylor +10 at Texas: Both teams humbled by blowout losses last week. Teams now go into Austin thinking win. BAYLOR.
BC +14 at Georgia Tech: Whatever is left of that BC carcass that was dragged out of Tallahassee will be devoured in Atlanta. GT.
Texas Tech +1 at TCU: Line opened +3½ and one place I saw had Tech -2. Tech buried West Virginia in Lubbock. This is Ft. Worth. TCU.
Nebraska -5 at N’western: Huskers needed that bye week after giving up 63 at Ohio State. Wildcats are not Buckeyes. NEBRASKA.
Iowa St. +14 at Okla St.: The Cyclones went to Iowa and won then went to TCU and won. IOWA ST.
Michigan St. +10 at Michigan: Wolverines outscored Purdue and Illinois 89-13 the past two weeks. MICHIGAN.
Middle Tenn +20 at Miss St.: Classic sandwich game for host Bulldogs with Tennessee before and Alabama ahead next week. MTSU.
