What picks to you guys think are a lock this weekend?

I haven't bet on any games in a while but I ended up getting the itch and made a bet on Oregon St last night and I am looking to roll the winnings into the weekend.

I have seen some people make some really good picks here before and just wanted to see if anyone had any games that jumped out at them this weekend. Also, can Vandy pull it off this weekend or will Auburn have enough to expose them as posers?
Thanks Volnation!

I got Auburn by at least 4.
Texas Tech by at least 8 against KState.
GaTech by at least 13.5 against Duke.
Florida by at least 25.5 against Arky.

If ever there was a sure thing, this is it. More like UF by 40+.

Yikes, I would be delighted with some Offensive scoring like that.

I wouldn't get too excited.

It IS Arkansas. They're wretched this year. You guys cover easy.

nothing is a lock, but I like Penn State to cover vs Purdue.

I like Iowa vs Michigan State and Miami vs FSU

agreed. Arky probably has the worst defense in the conference this season and probably the worst in the conference this decade.

Not that safe of a bet the way they are playing.

Not so fast my friend!

It just goes to show...there is no such thing as a lock when using the spread.

First time have been on since Friday afternoon but I got a few beers in me and ended up betting everything on Vandy straight up. Thank goodness they pulled it out because that was probably the worst bet to take. Turned out great though because the Moneyline was +160.
