Experts Picks
CHN experts predict four of the biggest and more importantly, closest games each week..
|
#2 Wisconsin at Michigan State Tuesday, 7, ESPN |
#13 Air Force at UNLV Tuesday, 10 |
#9 Texas A&M at Oklahoma State Wednesday, 9 |
#17 Duke at Clemson Thursday, 9 |
|
|
The Spartans need a marquee win for their resume, but the Badgers have too much at both ends for MSU. Wisconsin |
MWC showdown. UNLV nearly knocked off AFA on the road, and will get the job done this time with their athleticism edge. UNLV |
Oklahoma State is struggling mightily lately, and Acie Law will come through down the stretchfor A&M. Texas A&M |
Will this one come down to a
timing error? Duke has turned things around, but Clemson is desperate
and will get the W. |
|
|
Tucker and company simply have
too much talent for the Spartans, even on the road. Taylor can contain
Neitzel, and the Badgers should have their way inside.
|
Falcons failed last big road test at SDSU, but they will atone for it here. AFA's style and poise will frustrate the Rebels. Air Force |
Cowboys are tough at
home(13-1), and will be fired up after loss to Mizzou. Aggies, led by Oklahoma State |
Blue Devils appear to have
rebounded from mini-slump and regained the Duke swagger. Outside
shooting and defense will be the keys as Duke walks out of Clemson a
winner. |
|
|
The back-against-the-wall rule for the talented-home-team-that desperately-needs-a-win hasn't failed me yet. Why tempt fate. Michigan State |
The Rebels haven't lost at home since before Thanksgiving and are looking for some revenge and some national respect. They should get both here. UNLV |
The wheels have come off the
Cowboy bandwagon, and A&M has not lost to |
Clemson, once the nation's
last undefeated team, has lost 7 of 9, officially ending their feel good
story for the season. Duke should |
|
|
Wisconsin fans feel I've slighted them in the CHN Top 50 all year.. the disrespect continues today. Michigan State |
Last time I picked Air Force on the road, they got hammered by 21 at SDSU. I wont make the same mistake twice. UNLV |
Basically I'm going with the same reason as Kevin above. Cowboys are in danger of dropping to 8th in the Big 12. Texas A&M |
Clemson came oh so close to beating Duke in Cameron.. so you figure Clemson will win at home, right? Wrong. Duke |
