Football Picks

Oklahoma vs. Missouri over 78.5 total points. Initially, I thought this number was too high; good thing I do my research. During the past five weeks, OU and its opponents have combined to score 93, 90, 94, 86, and 101. Don't worry about the cold or the field conditions either. Missouri and Kansas scored 77 in miserable weather at the same venue (Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium) last Saturday.

Jets -4 at 49ers.
Four points? Are we really that scared of a cross-country flight? I'm not. This game means a hell of a lot more to New York with the AFC East still anyone's ballgame. Even with a one game lead, it can't afford to drop a winnable road game.

Giants -6.5 vs. Eagles. No, really, you can get this one for slightly under a touchdown at the Las Vegas Hilton as of Thursday. Plax shmax, you gotta ride Big Blue for under a TD at home against a shaky Eagles team.
