Big Dipper's Picks of The Week

Last week saw The Big Dipper once again go 3-0 and continue to prove that I am the best source of free football picks on the internet. That makes a 7-1 record over the last 2 weeks and a 77% winning percentage for the year. That is unmatched by any socalled "expert" pay for picks site. So...I am glad you are here and so will you be once you put the hammer down on the man w these bonafide winners.

Big Dippers Pick of the Week

Arkansas (-4.5) 31   SC 20
The SC def has put up some really good stats so far this season , however they will be exposed this week by the Hogs 9th ranked passing offense. SC has faced only 2 teams this year w an average pass game (East Carolina & Georgia) and they hung 32 and 47 points respectively on the ballyhooed Angry Birds. That's right I have named the SC defense The Angry Birds and it is a $1,000 t-shirt idea...leading into this game The Gamecocks have faced pass offenses ranked 116 (Navy), 105 (Vandy),102 (Kentucky), 78 (Miss St) and a Tenn squad without it's starting QB and top offensive playmaker. The firepower they face this week in Littlerock will put the Gamecocks behind the 8 ball w 2 conference losses and Georgia back in the drivers seat for the SEC East crown.  The loss of Marcus Lattimore becomes an issue this week and for the rest of the season and Ashlon Jeffries gets ready for the NFL combine....Get on the Hogs and give the points.

Big Dipper's Blowout of the Week

Ok State (-21) 56  Kansas St 20

Last week Coach Bill Snyder's team got a harsh dose of reality as a pissed off Oklahoma team steamrolled them at home 58-17. The beat continus this week as The Mildcats roll thier 97th ranked pass defense into Stillwater to take on the high flying 'Pokes of Okie St. The Cowboys have a 27 yr old QB and the 4th ranked pass offense in the country and will swamp K State and get ahead early taking them out of thier ball control offense. Take OK State for an easy Blowout cover.

Big Dipper's Barking Dog

LSU (+5) 20 Alabama 21

Tuscapalooza is here!

The biggest regular season game of 2011 is finally here. These teams are so closely matched that it is very difficult to pick. Many interesting angles here, the contrast in head coaches, Sabin being 14-0 in revenge games...that is an incredible stat..., but I think it will come down to what it always come down to. Who wants it more? An epic battle of will ensues and I cant wait to watch. I give Bama the edge because of home field but will take the 5 points...it seems inflated to me.
