College Football Picks 9/8 Part 2

Here is my afternoon slate.

Top Picks

Wyoming/Toledo over 58.5
USC/Syracuse over 66.5
Vanderbilt -3.5 vs Northwestern

Leans

Texas A&M pick vs Florida

Writeups

Wyoming/Toledo- Both teams are offense first teams with the hope that their defense can do enough to keep them in games. Look for plenty of big plays from both team's offenses and for this game to pick up velocity as both teams would like to capture a non conference victory to bolster their bowl chances.

USC/Syracuse- Both of these teams put on pretty impressive offensive shows while USC's defense looked stout Syracuse' defense was not very impressive. I do expect Cuse to be able to score on USC this week and for USC to pick up where they left off last week and this game to get over the big total.

Vanderbilt- The Commodores put on a good fight last week while NWU was able to pull off a last minute victory. NWU in the second really fell apart when their offense line was tested and their defensive backfield was challenged. I don't see the Wildcats improving much in a week in those 2 areas and for Vandy to take advantage of those deficiencies. This should be pretty close but Vandy will be able to make the plays on defense and in the passing game to get the win and the cover.

Texas A&M- Taking a little bit of a leap of faith with this pick as A&M has not played yet and that will be a disadvantage for the them. Nevertheless I do expect the Aggies defense to handle the Gators offense and for new head coach Sumlin's offense to be effective enough to get the win which is all I need.
