I thought we were trending upwards with my latest gambling picks, but it turns out I was very wrong.
My five picks went only 2-3 this weekend. Not the worst possible weekend, but I’m not too happy about sitting at 11-14 for the season.
These were the five picks for anybody who might have forgot:
USC (-3.5) vs. Washington State: LOSS
Penn State (-18) vs. Indiana: WIN
Clemson (-7.5) vs. Virginia Tech: WIN
Alabama vs. Ole Miss (+28.5): LOSS
Minnesota (-12.5) vs. Maryland: WIN
The most frustrating part about all this is that I foolishly believed the SEC wasn’t complete garbage. I thought there was no way Ole Miss could be so bad that the Rebels couldn’t keep it within 28 points.

My apologies to everybody. I should have been smart enough to know there wasn’t any chance of the Rebels hanging around with Nick Saban.
Don’t worry too long because we’re bouncing back next week and going 5-0. Have trust in the process.
