Big (Week 3) For the East

Fresh of the presses my Week 3 Big East Picks that nobody's waiting for:

Starting tonight we have a barn burner for you when Iowa State takes on UCONN. A game so big that only the Worldwide Leader will host..on ESPN2. But seriously what can I say about this game that you don't already. For starters, I can tell you a starter in this game: Lyle McCombs is a freshman running back averaging 5.1 yards a carry. Dude is from Staten Island and somehow managed to NOT get arrested and play football. In this game, my straight up pick is UCONN to bounce back from a loss to SEC workforce Vandy a week ago.

West Virginia vs Maryland
Sarcasm out the window, this is actually a solid ACC vs Big East matchup. Winner should get the title "Best Conference not named the SEC" after this solid game. West Virginia's offense is a fluid as it gets. Geno Smith is great playmaker and his star receiver Ivan McCartney is cousins with Ochocinco. Danny OBrien came out of nowhere in his game against the prison inmates Miami to earn a QB Rating of 139. This should be an aerial attack that I feel favors Maryland. OBrien will finish with around 275 yards, but in a losing effort. My pick here is West Virginia.

Pittsburg vs Iowa
Iowa lost to Iowa State. Apparently the people from Iowa have a big enough rivalry to give the winner an ugly ass trophy. Good Lord there must be 99% white people in Iowa. Back to the game, No Post-Wannstanche team can travel to the Hawkeye state and get a win. Kirk Ferentz is too much man for that to happen. Iowa is my pick here.

Louisville vs Kentucky
Louisville lost to Florida International University, a football program from a school who claims they are international. Such a low blow. The only damage the Cardinals will do in Lexington is if they unleash Rick Pinto on the Kentucky sororities. Kentucky all the way here.

Florida A&M vs South Florida
FAMU has a really good marching band, but a bad football team. USF wins this game

Akron vs Cincinnati
The Bearcats suffered a tough loss at Knoxville a week ago, but thankfully there's an unwanted stepchild to beat up on. Cincy will treat Akron like Jodie Foster in The Accused this weekend. Bearcats all the way.

Syracuse vs Southern Cal (UPSET ALERT)
Two games under the belt, and two times I've jumped on the Orange Bandwagon. America was picking Wake Forest, I took on America and WON. Everybody from Rhode Island were saying Rhode Island was going to knock off the 'Cuse, I took on Rhode Island and WON. Guess what LA...Antwon Bailey is coming to town. And that guy will treat you worse than the NCAA treats Kiffin. Then quarterback Ryan Nassib will make the Raiders and Rams leaving town seem like middle school after his performance. Dude comes in and boast his 6 touchdowns down your throat. Hell, he might throw for six in this game so big that FX is covering it. That's right, a channel that doesn't even cover sports is lifting its ban JUST so they can get this vintage NY vs CA matchup. I've already got my popcorn ready, next I'll be sending Matt Barkley and the USC Cheerleaders some Kleenex boxes for what Van Chew is gonna do to them. The Cuse, The Cuse, The Cuse is on FIRE.
