January 4th Picks

   Not a lot I like today, but here are a few games you may want to consider. It's been a while since I've updated the blog anyway... So today will be a good day to break the ice.

Streakhelp's Picks

Pick #1 Temple Owls win or single digit loss

   Not sure why all the love for Duke, all I know is Temple is no pushover. It could very well go either way, but 95+% on Duke is a little ridiculous I think. Temple is playing at home at 9-3, with their only bad loss to Bowling Green. Their other two losses came to decent teams (Purdue and Texas). One of which was on the road (Texas). Temple has generated a pretty good local fanbase this season, so I think homecourt advantage definitely implies to this game. This one should come down to the wire, I'll take my chances with Temple. Good luck whatever you do, this post is to mostly warn you not to get completely  caught up with the sheep. Duke stands a good shot as well, but not like the percentages make it out to be.

Pick #2 Clemson Tigers

 Clemson has been a better team this year in my opinion. They began getting some doubters from both critics and average college football fans after two blowout losses to NC State (37-13) and rival South Carolina (34-13) in their final two games of the season. However, after a 38-10 punishing ACC Championship win over then #5 Virginia Tech, Clemson has developed some hype going into this game. With current situations I really like Clemson.
