Week 2 Lines

What an abysmal start to the college football betting season (1-3 ATS on this site, 2-4 on http://www.wssbsports.com) for me! Let's hope that we start getting better in a hurry. Here are some lines that should be especially interesting for next week:

1) California (-9 and dropping...) at Washington: One Joseph Ayoob 0-10 performance (albeit against Sacramento State) and the panic buttons are howling. Note to linesmen: California still beat SacSt by 38 points, and they are playing WASHINGTON this week. In other words, they won't need a passing game. Marshawn Lynch wins this game all on his own. California 34 Washington 17.

2) Clemson at Maryland (-1): Tommy Bowden's club pulled off a miraculous victory over the Aggies last weekend and are looking to keep things going with a win over the Terrapins as they open conference play. The keys to this game will be whether Maryland has an answer for Whitehurst and whether Maryland can get anything going on offense. I'm picking against Clemson again. Maryland 20 Clemson 17.

3) Stanford at Navy (+3): Navy took Maryland to the wire. That's all you need to know. Navy 31 Stanford 20.
