| FTBL 252s Underdog Picks of Week 12

[252BAMA]

1. Syracuse +18 at Louisville. Two bad teams with not 18 points difference between them. Louisville is getting WAY too much credit for the close game with ND. It was then and is now quite obvious that ND used that week to prepare for Clemson.

2. Kansas State +11 at Iowa State. Common opponent results do not show me an 11 point difference. Both beat Kansas, Oklahoma, and TCU. Both lost to TTU and OSU.

3. Oklahoma State +9 1/2 at Oklahoma. See #2. KSU and ISU both beat Oklahoma. Both lost to OSU. OSU wins SU.

Results:
2-4

Several strange odds this week. I don't know which team I would have left out, but had the game not been postponed I would have had Georgia Tech +18 at Miami in the mix. As short handed as they were, there is no way Miami should have been favored by 18 over any FBS team. Not even GT.

And GT is another reason for my Syracuse pick. Syracuse beat GT by 17 points. Louisville lost to GT by 19 points! Why is Louisville even favored in this game?
