Weekend Football

NCAA picks... TEXAS (-17) will roll over Colorado. The Longhorns are out to prove they belong at the top of the BCS standings. VANDERBILT (+16) will cover at home against Georgia. Tease NOTRE DAME (+12 to +18), playing against Southern Cal, with BOSTON COLLEGE (-14 to -8), at home versus Wake Forest, and the Irish Catholic schools will pay. NFL picks... Cincinnati (-3) will win at TENNESSEE. Houston (+9.5) are desparate for a win and they just might get it in SEATTLE. Throw in a three-team tease on the Patriots (+3 to +12), Chargers (-2 to +7) and Rams (+13.5 to +22.5). The Pats will be in a tough one at DENVER, San Diego is coming off a tough Monday Night loss and faces an OAKLAND team coming off a bye so they could use some points and St. Louis will need all the help they can get at INDIANAPOLIS (although the temporary loss of coach Mike Martz might just be what the Rams need to pull off the upset).
