I usually don't bring out the "stone-cold-mortal-lock" phrase made popular by a certain Philadelphia sports talk show host unless the degree of confidence is high.
I have one, but I'll save it for the end.
So far in SCML terms this season, I'm 1-0.
I advised people on the Owlscoop.com board to bet the under (39) against Uconn.
Well, I beat the under by 18 that day and the game went into overtime.
Here are just my regular locks:
WAKE FOREST (-16) against visiting Navy _ lay the 16. Navy is just not that good and Wake Forest is. No weather issues.
BUFFALO (+6 1/2) at Central Michigan _ Buffalo is a better team, even with a ocuple of what Joe Paterno would call "fat guys" on the offensive line. This game will be decided on a field goal either way. Take Buffalo and be glad you are getting 6 1/2.
FRESNO STATE (-6 1/2) at UCLA _ Bruins got smoked by BYU, 59-0. Fresno is better than BYU. Fresno State wins this game by two touchdowns.
BALL STATE (-17 1/2) hosting Kent State _ Ball State is the MAC's one big-time team. Kent State is a fraud. Ball State, 39-13.
TROY (+16 1/2) at Oklahoma _ Troy is pretty good and a good value with the 16 and change.

THIS WEEK'S STONE COLD MORTAL LOCK
The under (57) at the Temple vs. Western Michigan game. Huge weather issues will keep this score low.
