Streakhelp's Picks:
Pick #1 Utah State Aggies
With the Utah Valley Wolverines 0-4 on the road, It's hard to trust them going into this game. Both teams are pretty bad, but Utah State has fared better overall against slightly better competition, playing teams such as Weber State (5-1) and beating BYU (6-2) 69-62. Utah Valley lacks a quality win. Out of Utah Valley's 5 wins, 2 of them (NIU and Grambling State) have yet to win a game this season. 2 others (SIM and HAS?) had no information on them in ESPN's website (so obviously they are pretty quiet teams). Their only possible significant win, was to the UMKC Kangaroos (4-5) who seem to be on about the same level as Utah Valley. As I said earlier, both teams are pretty bad, but considering the Aggies are at home, Utah Valley is 0-4 on the road, the Aggies played slightly harder competition thus far this season, and Utah Valley has yet to snag a significant win; I would go with Utah State. Good luck whatever you do.
Christian's Picks:
1. Valencia: Win, Draw, Lose by 1
Here are a few situations involved in this game.... If there is a 0-0 draw, Chelsea moves on to the next round of UEFA. Any other draw means that Valencia moves on instead. The only thing this tells me is that this is not a meaningless game for either club. Valencia will be trying very hard to at least score once and if they can achieve that, Chelsea will need to score 3 goals in order to cover the pick. If Valencia is able to score once and the score is 1-1 at that point, they will sub in many defensemen in order to maintain that draw so they can advance. I just don't see Chelsea blowing Valencia out here. Also, in September, these two clubs drew 1-1 at Valencia. Yes this is in Chelsea, but this game has much more meaning and will undoubtedly be a closer match than people see on paper. I see a 1-1 draw or 2-1 win for Chelsea.
