A pair of points away from the winning weekend that he’d been searching for to get his college season on track, Cras looks to build on his 2-2 effort last weekend.
It’s been another crazy year on the college fields but there are plenty of winning opportunities and we had Cras pick four games for this Saturday.
Just when it looked like his NCAA season was starting to turn around, the uncertainty that is known as college football ended the optimism last weekend.
After handing Cras a winless 0-4 week, he tries to figure out what has been another highly unpredictable college year.
He was 10 seconds away from a 3-1 Saturday in college football last weekend but instead he had to settle for a mediocre 2-2 day.
With just over two minutes remaining, the UCLA Bruins drove the field for a 23-20 comeback win over the Stanford Cardinal. The comeback thwarted Cras’ chances of the winning weekend he needed to turn around his college season.
Is it time to fade the picks in Quick Hits?
After giving bettors a number of winning weeks last season, Cras is having a tough time figuring out the increasingly complicated NCAA schedule and the numerous upsets of the top-ranked teams.
Even he admits that this week’s picks may be worth a fade after a disappointing 1-3 record last Saturday.
Here’s what he’s thinking this week:
It wasn’t exactly the big bounce-back week he was hoping for but at 2-2 with his picks last weekend you won’t find Cras complaining too much.
Although it hasn’t been his best college season, there’s still time to turn around the 9-12-1 season.
It didn’t happen at all last year, but last week Cras went a dismal 0-4 during what should be called Upset Week in college football.
The fourth week of the college football season brings the biggest conference games to date.
The time of powerhouses to play powder puff teams is coming to an end and so is the time for mediocre college picks.

Tennessee U vs. UCLA
One of the best early match ups in college football comes on Monday night, September 1st as the UCLA Bruins host the 18th-ranked Tennessee Volunteers. A key game for both schools, Tennessee will be out to prove that they deserve their preseason rank, while UCLA wants badly to put a disappointing 6-6 season behind them so they can become the power in the PAC 10 that everyone thought they would be last season.
The first few weeks of the college season can set you up for the rest of the year or even pad your pocket for NFL Sundays. A good, hard look at the numbers reveals some very enticing odds to make you money as oddsmakers try to get a handle on how teams will perform.
