Big Dippers Pick's of the Week!

Short and sweet this week.

Big Dipper's Pick of the Week.
Clemson (-11) 41 UNC 23
I continue to like the Clemson Tigers. The Fighting Dabo's are incredibly balanced on offense and the OL has gelled into a really strong unit. The defense has played good enough to win and matches up quite well vs. the UNC pro-style attack. Clemson's defensive front is led by DT Brandon Thomas and DE Andre Branch. Both are projected as top 20 in the 1st round of next years NFL draft. The emmergence of Tig Willard at LB has been a very pleasant surprise and he is shining after fighting through a painful rib injury last year. I really like the looks of redshirt Freshman Breeland in the defensive backfield and Cory Sensabaugh has made big plays and played tough through a couple of interception drops. This team has much swagger as the Big Dipper and that is saying something.

Big Dipper's Barking Dog ***A special Barking Dog Triple shot weekend!***

BC (+21.5) 13  VT 23
BC plays an umbrella style defense that forces patience and will keep this game realtively close the entire way. I think this sets up for a backdoor 4th qtr cover as BC continues to play hard even though any hope of a good season was lost when RB Montel Harris went down w injury. BC MLB Luke Kuechly  is a tackling Machine a very solid in the middle. Take The Eagles and the points.

GT (+3) 35 Miami 26

Paul Johnson and the Humble Bumbles catch Miami at a very good time. Tech's offense has looked mediocre the past 2 weeks and some think that people have figured out how to shut down ther triple option. Minor tweaks is all it takes to get that offense humming again and I believe the Jackets are undervalued this week. This is a flat out call for the upset.

Texas Tech (+28.5) 24 Oklahoma 41
Tevas Tech has the 4th rated passing offense in collecge football and they dont play bad defense. OK looked a little unfocused vs Kansas last week and with a ranked K-State team next week I look for The Red Raiders to be an easy cover.
