September 14th pick results

LA Angels- Won 4-1
4 pitches or more- Won (11 pitches)

Record for day 2-0
Record for month 22-4

This will be my only writeup for tomorrow more than likely...

Pick #1 LSU

   LSU goes into Mississippi State's revived hostile environment tomorrow night. Taking with them a 2-0 record that includes an impressive 40-27 win aginst then-ranked #3 Oregon. LSU will play once again without quarterback Jordan Jefferson and reciever Russell Sheppard. So far it hasn't been a major problem. LSU Senior quarterback Jarett Lee has proven to be a simple yet, effective quarterback. He has certainly gotten the job done for LSU over the last couple of weeks. However, LSU's offense as a whole has been pretty average at best overall and very poor for a top 5 team. Ranking 89th in total yards, 101st in passing and 40th in rushing, LSU's defense will have to continue to step it up. I think they can. Though giving up 27 points to Oregon, you have to remember, it's Oregon. Oregon had an increadibly high powered offense last season and already ranks 9th this season in scoring after beating Nevada 69-20. With the return of Darren Thomas and LaMichael James, you have to assume they will have similar results this season more or less. Oregon has a better offense than Mississippi State, and I think LSU can contain things pretty well tomorrow night.

  Mississippi State has just 5 days to prepare after a heartbreaking loss to a struggling Auburn team. Auburn nearly lost to Utah State a week before hosting the Bulldogs. If the Bulldogs can't beat a struggling (but pretty good) Auburn team, I don't see them pulling off a win against and LSU team that handled Oregon very well. I'm not saying Mississippi State doesn't have a shot, but with such a devastating loss so recently, I think the Bulldogs passion will be a little down. Or it may have the opposite affect. Possibly it will be what fuels the fire playing rival LSU to show the nation they are more than a top 25 team. Either way, I like my chances with LSU overall. Even if they lose, I'll let my streak go down with them.

September 14th Picks

Record for the day 3-0
Record for month 20-4

 I really caught a break yesterday with Arizona. Great ending to a great game.


 I don't really have a lot of time to go into a lot of detail today, but I do see a couple of picks I like...

Pick #1 LA Angels

 The Angels will start Jared Weaver on the mound today. Arguably the best pitcher on the Angels, he is already 3-0 this season against the A's. Posting a 2.44 ERA, 16-7 record, 187 so, 1.01 WHIP in 23 starts. With batting being pretty equal for both teams, I think Weaver will be the difference. The Angels may only need a few runs to win.

 Oakland will start Rich Harden, who helped the A's defeat the Angels 4-3 back in July. Posting a 5.00 ERA and giving up 4 hits. 2 of which were homeruns.

Possible Pick #1 4 pitches or more

  I feel like these are usually the most upredictable. However, It seems most everytime this prop has been up, it has been about 3 or 4 pitches. Depending on who gets the start, you may want to go 4 or more. If Jeter starts though, I would probably stay away or possibly go 3 or less.
