Toledo vs. Eastern Michigan
Free Pick: Toledo -16 -110 odds – point spreads
Visit Touthouse.com for more expert college football picks from Rob Vinciletti

n Friday night the comp play in college football is on the Toledo Rockets. Game 312 at 7:00 eastern. The line on this game has been going down all week,starting at 19 and dropping to as low as 16 in some spots. The reason for the drop is another classic reaction the starting Qb listed as doubtful. The reality however is that Toledo like many MAC teams this year are superior in talent compared to an over matched Eastern Michigan team. Toledo will still score an abundance of points against a sub par E.Michigan defense that has allowed nearly 50 points a game over their last three contests. Toledo is 11-2 ats as favorites off a double digit loss and has controlled this series of late cashing six of the last between the two teams. This is the last home game of the season for the Rockets and they would like to erase the memory of last years 38-10 debacle in their last home game. Toledo also fits a solid system here that plays on home favorites of 10 or more points with a win percentage of .800 or less that are off back to back road losses from game 7 on out. This system has cashed at over 70% over the years. Look for this one to get out of hand tonight. Take Toledo. In late phone action we are coming off another 2-0 night. Tonight I have a Double system NBA play. NBA top plays are 23-8 over the last 31. In college hoops action I have a 100% Non Conference Power angle. All games go shortly after 7:00 eastern. The Current run is now 20-7 and I have another big weekend planned as College football has cashed 8 of 10 the past 2 weeks. Jump on and make some nice change tonight and all the way into this weekend. For the Free play Take Toledo. RV.

Michigan vs. Ohio State
Free Pick: Michigan +12 -110 odds – point spreads
Visit Touthouse.com for more NCAA football picks from Matt Fargo

Ohio St. has dominated this series in recent years as it has won five straight meetings including a 42-7 victory last season. In my opinion this is the worst Ohio St. team since this streak began and there is no way it should be favored by this many points on the road in a major rivalry game. The Buckeyes clinched a trip to the Rose Bowl with their win over Iowa last week and that is pretty much by default as no team in this conference deserves a trip to any BCS Bowl game. This is one of the worst seasons the Big Ten has had in quite some time and the fact that Iowa was atop the conference just two weeks ago and ranked number four in the nation proves that. This game is much bigger for Michigan. It needs to win to become bowl eligible which would stop the bleeding of a four-game losing streak as well as a six-game conference losing skid. The seniors will be playing their final home game ever at the Big House knowing that they are 0-3 against the Buckeyes and getting swept at home would be the worst possible scenario. The Wolverines have been blown out twice on the road during this recent stretch, which also includes a two-point loss against Purdue at home. Three of the six losses this season have been by a combined 10 points this is definitely one of the better six-loss teams in the country. Senior offensive lineman Mark Ortmann and senior defensive end Brandon Graham were going to make sure the rest of the team understood how big this game was and what it means to the program as the pair held a players-only meeting to get the team on the same page and prepared for Saturday’s contest. These types of meetings are sometimes overblown but in a case like this where there are now outside things going on off the field, it is a big step. Michigan has been woeful on defense in the second half during the losing streak, as evidenced in the latest loss to Wisconsin where the Wolverines were outscored 24-7 in the second half in a 45-24 defeat. In the 38-36 loss against Purdue, Michigan was outscored 28-12 after halftime and the week before that, it was outscored by Illinois 31-0 in the final two quarters after taking a 13-7 lead into halftime. Last and certainly not last, it was shutout by Penn St. 16-0 in the final 30 minutes making it a total deficit of 99-19 in the second half during this losing streak. To beat Ohio St., Michigan needs to force quarterback Terrelle Pryor into mistakes and that can easily happen. Pryor’s numbers are average at best as he is completing just over 55 percent of his passed while throwing 15 touchdowns and nine interceptions. A win here for Michigan avoids back-to-back losing seasons for the first time in 46 years so there is a half of a century’s worth of history to avoid. The Wolverines do fall into a very good situation based on the recent success of Ohio St. Play against road favorites in the second half of the season that are outscoring opponents by 10 or more ppg going up against a team that is between +5 and -5 ppg in scoring differential after allowing seven points or less in the first half in two straight games. This situation is 48-22 ATS (68.6 percent) since 1992. Even though it is a rivalry game, Michigan had nothing to play for last season and it showed as it limped in to finish 3-9 on the season. The Wolverines have a lot more at stake this season and they will keep this one closer than expected. 3* Michigan Wolverines

Bowling Green vs. Akron
Free Pick: Akron +11.0 (-110 odds)
Fri November 20th 2009 5:30p
Visit Touthouse.com for more NCAA football picks from LT Profits

The Akron Zips may be just 2-8 straight up overall including 0-5 on the road, but the Bowling Green Falcons are simply not good enough to be giving double-digits to anyone.

Yes, Bowling Green is averaging 25.4 points per game and they will be able to score on an Akron defense that is surrendering 28.8 point per contest. Our trepidation regarding the Falcons though lies with their defense, as they are actually allowing more points (27.0 per game) than they are scoring, a trait you never want to see in a double-digit favorite.

Furthermore, home field advantage has been a myth for Bowling Green so far as they are just 1-3 here in their own stadium compared to 4-2 on the road. The Falcons have been outscored by an unacceptable -9.8 points per game at home, where they have been simply dreadful against the run, allowing a whopping 202.2 rushing yards per game on a horrific 6.0 yards per rush.

Granted, Akron is offensively challenged, but even they can have success on the ground vs. this Falcons unit. The last time the Zips faced a team with a poor run defense, they accumulated 168 rushing yards vs. Kent State two weeks ago. As long as they do not fall behind too big too early, Akron will continue to pound the ball here, realizing that would give them the most realistic chance of pulling the upset.

While we are not sure the Zips can win outright, we do feel an effective running game will keep them within single-digits here until the final gun.

CFB Free Pick: Akron +11 (-110)

Air Force vs. BYU
Free Pick: Air Force +10 -110 odds – point spreads
Visit Touthouse.com for more expert college football picks from Wunderdog Sports

The Cougars looked like a BCS contender when they shocked Oklahoma 14-13 in the season opener. The shine has come off as the Sooners proved to be a much lesser team than most anticipated, disappearing from the National Title picture themselves. BYU has feasted on a lot of cupcakes since, but were humiliated by the two teams that had a chance to give them a game. They suffered blowout losses to Florida State and TCU, allowing 92 points to those two teams. Now they must face an Air Force team with a great defense (#9 in the nation in points allowed) and an improving offense. Air Force took TCU to the wire before bowing 20-17. No one has scored more than 23 points on this team all season, not even TCU. The potent Horned Frogs offense (averaging 39 points per game) were held to 20 points by the Falcons – their second lowest total of the season! So, getting 10 points in this one is big. The Falcons’ offense is coming on and they have the defense that is capable of holding down BYU’s offense that has shown warts against top defenses. Air Force is quietly building a very respectable program under the radar. They are 22-11 ATS overall the past three seasons. Meanwhile, BYU is 2-11 ATS since last season in conference games and they are 4-22 ATS in their last 26 games following a two-game road trip. BYU has the bigger name here, but maybe not the better team. Take the Academy plus the generous points.

Overview: Colorado returns four starters from a 9-22 club, that also finished just 1-15 in the Big 12. The good news is that they can pretty much only go up. Junior guard Cory Higgins (6-5, 185) returns after leading the team in scoring at 17.5ppg and provided 5.5rpg. He was one of the few bright spots last year. Aussie import Nate Tomlinson (6-2, 180) took over at the point and provided 7.4ppg and 3apg and a decent 83-77 assist to turnover ratio. Freshman guard Alex Burks can score, but needs to work on his defense. Senior guard Dwight Thorne II (6-2, 185) adds 12ppg and benefited from playing on a summer AIA European tour. Up front, the Buffs add 6-11, 240-pound Shane Harris-Tunks, who is another Aussie, who gives the team size and rebounding. They also added Marcus Rephorde (6-7, 220), a JC import from Indian Hills (Iowa), who also spent a year at St. Louis. Austin Dufault (6-8, 210) provided 8.2ppg and 3.8rpg in his freshman season.

Outlook: Colorado should improve this year, but they have a long ways to go get to the middle of the pack of a very talented conference.
