In an effort to be as succinct as possible, I will cut straight to the chase and release the winners.
Fresno State +7.5 Over Boise State. This is the classic overreaction matchup. In prior years Boise State would be laying 20 points, so upon seeing the line at only 7.5, the "common man" can hardly contain his emotions. However, much to the common man's chagrin, this is not the same Boise State team. Gone are: Kellen Moore, Doug Martin,etc. and this years team feels more like a work in progress. Despite having a big edge playing at home, I expect this game to be closely contested and will gladly take the 7 and a hook.
Pittsburgh +3 Over Louisville. Weak conference, always side with the home dog, especially in early starts.
Oklahoma -3 Over Texas. Mack Brown recruits like no one else. Unfortunately his teams underachieve like no others. As bad as Bob Stoops' coached teams have played in big games, this is my "lesser of two evils" release. If either team was playing a legitimate top 10 opponent, I would fade them. However, in this case give me the Sooners to win by at least a touchdown.

The common man is anyone we know who feels the need to broadcast his opinion (most often dead wrong) to all his friends. Common man will not be happy until his friends follow his advice and head down the same path of self-loathing/ loserdom that he has embarked upon.
