Each week, my goal is to make five picks that will be the top betting selections of the college football slate. I have to look against the Las Vegas spreads and make selections based on a system of rules I've made.
In three of those games selected, the covering team did so by the skin of their teeth. South Carolina covered the point spread by winning by four (they were giving three to North Carolina). Baylor, my lock of the week, struggled early on to stop Southern Methodist, but the Mustang horse power eventually ran out, and the Bears covered a 34.
