Week 2 is off to a raucous start, and our boy Lewass has already predicted a major upset in the South Carolina game.  Oh to see what happens over the weekend.  Honestly, there are a lot of games this weekend, although I was only able to find a few where I feel confident enough in giving some sort of advice.  Early on in the season, it is tough to figure out what teams are truly made of, which makes picking the games all the more difficult.  Often times, you are looking for the crowd to start going with a team for no other reason then they looked good or bad last week, but we all know one week doesn't make a season.  So, on to the matchups.

West Virginia -7.5 (-105) at East Carolina +7.5 (-115) 

West Virginia is off to a good start this year under their new coach Bill Stewart.  The good news for Stewart is that Rich Rodriguez left Pat White and Noel Devine to work with.  Last year White and Devine destroyed the Pirates 48-7, and while I don't expect that big of a difference this time around, I do expect a good beat down.  East Carolina is coming off a nice upset, not that I would call it huge as some people (not me) thought it could be done.  They have a very stingy defense and overall a very veteran team.  The upset actually is going to hurt them this week as WVU won't be overlooking them.  I'd expect about a 10 point win in this for WVU.

San Jose State was my bread and butter team last year.  Living in San Jose I am privy to a lot of news about them that I would say most Vegas insiders aren't, which is why we were able to make some good money on them last year.  This week they are headed to Nebraska and are staring at a 27 point underdog position. Last week they barely escaped with a 13-10 win, and looked absolutely horrible doing it.  Nebraska on the other hand had a nice drubbing of Western Carolina under new head coach Bo Pelini.  While this isn't the run oriented Nebraska of old, and they will it air it out, I still prefer to get 27 points with San Jose.  They are sticklers for playing the underdog, and given an almost 4 TD cushion, I'll take that.

Stanford +14 at Arizona State -14 

Alright, call me a sucker, but I am going to fall into the hype and go with the Stanford Cardinal.  I can't believe I see myself typing this to your right now, but Stanford looked like a real College Football team last week.  Playing at Arizona State is not going to be a walk in the park though.  They come in as 2 TD dogs, and while I feel that they are definitely worthy of that spread, they should be able to hang tough with ASU.  ASU, like most ranked teams last week, played a cupcake last week, and didn't look all that impressive.  They won, but when you play cupcakes, it should be a beat down.  If you wanting to roll the dice this weekend, give the Cardinal a try.
