Blue Horseshoe rides again! Joe Spurlin deals this week's ten — five college, five pro — with Doug Lansdown (wearing blue), Keith Farroll, and Ron Cook in the corner.

Joe opens with a theory: last week's upset storm was the SEC's revenge for getting no primetime games. Then the picks: LSU gives 7.5 at Auburn and the panel splits down the middle over the hook; Baylor at Kansas is played for Dr. Kim — with 14 straight Baylor wins, a Jayhawk door projector courtesy of Jamie Kay, and Joe volunteering that he'd take Lawrence High School plus the points. Oregon's first trip to Champaign since 1993 gets declared a poisonous snake ("This dog has fleas — do not wager on this game"), and everyone takes Burt Bielema and the points anyway. Ole Miss at Texas and #14 Houston at #10 Utah split 2–2, with an Arch Manning crowd-watch in Austin and Willie Fritz love in Salt Lake.

In the pros: the Steelers take Paris ("My first call was Interpol as the winner"), the Giants visit a Houston team that's 0-3 at home (Cam Skattebo is treating the football like a live grenade, and Ron's fantasy loss to his own wife gets entered into evidence), the Niners are a unanimous road pick in Atlanta, Joe Burrow and the Bengals sweep Baltimore, and the whole panel — men who picked Kansas City to go .500 — jumps on the Chiefs bandwagon at Seattle. Plus a masterclass from Ron on why the spread is not a prediction.

As always: these picks are for entertainment purposes only, and should not be the basis of any actual wager. If you believe you have a gambling problem, call 1-800-GAMBLER.
