When the schedules first came out, ESPN must have been licking their chops waiting for this game to come on the calendar.  With two top schools from previous years coming in, they were set up to earn some serious advertising dollars.  However, both schools have disappointed and find themselves on the outside looking in, although at least West Virginia hasn't lost to a Big East opponent, so they are still in the mix in that respect.  Then again, it is the Big East, and I don't care what their Bowl records have been in the past, they are still the worst conference in the BCS...right Mr. LA?  Anyways, on to the free pick.

Looking for a good investment these days? Listen to LA.If somebody told you they had an investment plan which had a proven track record of doubling your money 58.6% of the time…in this economy…what would you say?  I thought so.  Well, purchase your ticket for LA right now then.  Following last weeks 6-2 performance ATS, the overall record continues to climb as I hit my mid-season stride. My overall record of 34-24-1 ATS is sure to be pushed this week as I think the spreads look to be right on in most cases.  In short, don’t expect as many “easy covers” as enjoyed last weekend.
