Atheist Skeptic Accountant Abbreviated College Football Picks 11/15/14

Sorry I’m buried in work this weekend. These picks will be much abbreviated from last week. Note that I’m calling upsets by rankings not by Vegas:

#1 Miss St at #5 Bama: Bama just isn’t that good right now. Miss St. 28-16

#3 FSU at Miami: FSU has been tempting fate every week, so it catches up with them this week. Miami’s game has improved in its last three wins and I think it’s good enough to win 48-40. For the record I’m picking FSU to lose again when it plays Florida. This isn’t wishful thinking here; I really think these teams have what it takes and will take down a flawed FSU.

#4 TCU at Kansas: TCU 45-20

#5 ASU at Oregon State: ASU avoids the letdown 27-23

#6 OSU at #25 Minnesota: OSU 31-14

#9 Auburn at #15 Georgia: Auburn rebounds (the ball off their own butt into the hands of Georgia linemen). Georgia 41-31

#12 MSU at Maryland: MSU 38-21

Washington at #14 Arizona: UA 31-17

#16 Nebraska at #20 Wisconsin: Neither team has beat a currently ranked opponent. Nebraska seems to put up points. I guess they stop Wisco’s running game from beating them up too badly. Nebraska 20-10

#17 LSU at Arkansas: Arkansas pulls the upset 28-13.

Northwestern at #18 Notre Dame: ND 35-14

#19 Clemson at #22 GT: Clemson 31-16

VT at #21 Duke: Duke 27-17

#23 Utah at Stanford: Vegas gives a big advantage to Stanford, but I’m sticking with the rankings. The Utes are a pretty good team even with some injuries, and their defense is still really good. Utah 30-24.

Mizzou at #24 Texas A&M: I don’t think A&M or Auburn are all that good. A&M may as well be on a 4 game skid. However, Mizzou hasn’t really impressed either. I pick A&M to get a solid win at home 21-7.

Enjoy the games! Put your picks for any games in the comments!

About Reverend Robbie

Five years ago I learned that religious leaders had legal rights that others don’t have. In my mind, such privileges were granted by the government with poor rationale. Ordained ministers can preside over weddings, while most ordinary people cannot. I felt that this was a violation of church/state separation. Luckily, one can be ordained online. I’m not sure if I agree with this on any level, but I got my online ordination in 10 minutes and have used the title in jest ever since. On this blog, I primarily write about religion and philosophy, but I’ll bounce around to other topics. I identify as an out and proud atheist. My primary purposes in writing are to raise awareness of atheism and atheists, and to provoke thought about religious and philosophical topics. I deeply appreciate readers and commenters, so please participate however you wish and know that I am grateful for your involvement. :) Robbie
