We are getting down to the end of the college season, with just a couple more weeks to go in the regular season. I’m hoping to finish strong and remain above .500 for the season. For this week, there are a lot of big spreads once again. Not very many heavyweight matchups, but that can be a good thing when picking the spread. Boring is good, it means what was supposed to happen actually happened. Granted, there are several rivalry games, so there just might be an upset or two on the horizon. You’ll have to read and see…
