Stoney And Bill's Football Picks For The Weekend Of 10-27-12

Four weeks ago Bill had an 0-for-5'er but since then he had three consecutive weeks of 3-2 and now he is one game behind Stoney for the season. Stoney has have a bad last few weeks going 1-4, 2-3, 2-3 and 1-4 respectfully.

Bill's Picks

Nebraska -2 1/2 vs Michigan
The Battle of the Legends as Michigan visits Lincoln, Nebraska to take on the Cornhuskers. Nebraska averages more passing yards, running yards and points scored than Michigan and they're playing at home.
Take Nebraska to cover.

Michigan State +6 at Wisconsin
The Spartans are looking to bounce back after losing to Michigan last week. Who's it going to be, Ball or Bell? MSU's defense could be a problem for the Badgers. The Spartans turn it around in Dairyland.
Take MSU and the points.

Notre Dame + 11 at Oklahoma
Notre Dame's defense has been allowing less than ten points per game this season while Oklahoma's offense has been averaging almost 45 points per game. Hopefully Notre Dame's defense does the job...and getting eleven points doesn't hurt either.
Take Stoney's favorite team, Notre Dame and the points.

Lions -2 vs Seattle
Oh boy, here we are at 2-4 and Lions nation is beyond frustrated. The dropped passes, the questionable play calling, etc...Does it all change this weekend?
Don't think so, take Seattle and the points.

Denver -6 vs New Orleans
The Saints secondary is not very good and Peyton Manning could have a field day as Denver looks to go over .500. Hopefully, Manning won't have to come back like he did last week against the Chargers.
Take Denver to cover.

Stoney's Picks

Nebraska -2 1/2 vs Michigan
Revenge,Huskers at home.This is the best offense Michigan will face the rest of the season.
Take NEBRASKA

Michigan State +6 at Wisconsin
When these teams play they are usually very close.Not sure how MSU rebounds from the Michigan game.
I will take my chances with the Spartans and the 6.

Notre Dame + 11 at Oklahoma
Most people think the Irish getr schooled big time in Norman. I think they lose. but will be in the game.
Take the Irish and the points.

Lions -2 vs Seattle
This is the Lions season.Lose the game and they are on the clock.
Give me the Lions by a field goal

Denver -6 vs New Orleans
The Saints are the strangest team in the NFL.Their defense is awful. Peyton Manning may eat it up, but Drew Brees will make this game competitive.
Take the Saints
