If you had to bet...
I've got a 5 game teaser deal going on this weekend, and I'm looking for a 5th game to roundout the teaser. Which 5 do you take? So far I'm taking: Oklahoma State to beat Baylor, Northwestern to beat the spread, Cal to bea tthe spread, and of course OSU to beat the spread.

You can bet over/under too.

Thanks for the help.

Baylor is not a slouch by any means, so I'm not sure that's a great choice. OSU should beat the spread, but it's usually a bad idea to bet real money on your team... but its your money

I don't know if this is a "good" pick, but Purdue could struggle to beat IU by 11. I could even see them losing that game.

Vandy geting 12 points to a free falling UT team kinda jumped out at me.

Also seeing 34 1/2 for ND seems a pretty safe bet, Syracuse is just awful and ND needs to look good down the stretch. I could see that getting covered.

Do you really think Vandy can hang within 12 of Tennessee?
