2008 Handicapabling Challenge: Week 4

We're a week behind in doling out the punishment in the 2008 Handicapabling Challenge. That is to say, McLane needs to eat his cesos taco. So what do we do this week? How about the loser drinking a nice, full shot of Siracha hot sauce? What better way to wash down some tasty brains, right McLane?

Now, on to the Week 4 picks...

MCLANE:

Ohio +12 vs NORTHWESTERN

Seems like a hell of a lot of points. Right? Who's with me? Anyone?

Arizona -3 vs UCLA

UCLA reached a new low last week. Tuitama won't pass for 19 touchdown or whatever it was the kid (or should I say man? He's probably 42) from BYU threw for last week, but the Wildcats will come away with a win by a couple of touchdowns.

LSU -3 vs AUBURN

Final score prediction: 8-2.

Florida -7 vs TENNESSEE

The Fatty Philip Fulmer Farewell Tour continues. Urban Meyer OWNS that fat tub of goo.

ARIZONA STATE +7 vs Georgia

The Devils gave new definition to the term crap the bed last week against UNLV but it may have been the best thing that could have happened going into this game. Erickson will have his team prepared, Tempe will be rocking, and Rudy Carpenter won't suck quite as much as he usually does.

Who am I kidding? It's a homer pick, through and through.

THE DUKE:

Central Michigan +10.5 @ PURDUE

LeFevour Power, baby! A moderately high profile Big 10 team is due to get knocked out by a MAC team this season. It's going to happen here.

ARKANSAS +9 vs. Alabama

I sense a very, very low scoring game. Not quite an Auburn game, but enough that nine points is an awful lot to ask Alabama to cover on the road.

UCLA +3 vs. Arizona

UCLA is a better home team against the spread the last few seasons than you would think. And Arizona is god awful on the road under Mike Stoops. Just the type of game the Bruins win to get their fans worked up before another crushing loss.

Georgia -7 @ ARIZONA STATE

Yeah McLane, that's a homer pick. This line is way off - it should be at least a double digit spread. If this was a day game in the usual Arizona 150 degree heat, maybe the Sun Devils would have a chance.

TOLEDO +7 vs. Fresno State

After being their BCS dreams get busted against Wisconsin, do you think the Bulldogs are excited about going on the road to take on the Rockets? The start of another long, painful slide for a Pat Hill team after almost knocking off a big ticket school.
