Filed under: Gambling, General CFB InsanityThere's probably not a more popular pastime among sports writers than predicting football games. Well, other than discovering there's free Fiddle Faddle in the press box.
In an exercise to determine exactly how smart (or clueless) I am, I will make my college football predictions right here each Friday. And, no 1-900 numbers to call. They're absolutely free!
In a tremendous show of confidence in my prognosticating ability, FanHouse executives decided to spot me with an imaginary $5,000 bankroll for the season. So each Friday, I'll pick a few games using my Monopoly money bankroll and at the end of the season we'll see if I'm either (a) a football-picking savant or (b) asking my imaginary friends for an imaginary loan.

On to the games. Point spreads are from Wednesday's USA Today. Each pick is for $50, except for (let's hope it's) a $100 best bet.
SMU at Texas Tech. The Craig James Bowl kicks off on Sunday from Lubbock, Texas. James understandably will have mixed emotions in this one. James is a former SMU running back whose son Adam plays for Texas Tech. What? You haven't heard of Adam James, the Red Raiders' 10th-leading wide receiver last season? Where have you been living? In a shed? Tommy Tuberville wins his debut, but take the Mustangs +14.
