Pick 6 - Week 8: It Had to Happen Sooner or Later

Welcome to this week's Pick 6, where we analyze the lines for the weekend's Big Ten games and each pick 6 of our favorite bets.  It's highly scientific.  It's easy money.  It's just for fun.  So, clearly we are not responsible for you losing your ass off if you take our advice.

 

First let's take a look at last week's results: 

The Week 7 Baldwins Chart of Wins

So it finally happened.  Our guest picker came out on top this week.  Hawkaloogie hit 5 out of 6 picks, missing only on the OSU/Purdue Over.  Congratulations big guy, and may Hurricane Rick lodge a two by four deeply in your rectum.  In order to make sure this never happens again, I have invited Buddy Light to pick this week.  And so far, it's looking promising.  Here's the grid:

In case you're not sure, the answer is yes....Buddy Light actually picked a push on the Iowa-MSU over/under.  Stupid?  Ballsy?  Maybe.  But no one ever fucks with with the stupidest, ballsiest guy in the room.  He said he had a good feeling about 27-16.  Plus, he added, "why the fuck not?"  I dare you to try to argue with that logic.  I say we give him 6-1 odds.  Overall standings and trends after the jump.

For us non degenerate-gamblers

could you explain the significance of BuddyLight picking a push? Does that mean he thinks we’re going to tie even though there are no ties, or that he’s just not going to pick at all and is taking a L (on his pick).

Everyone who bet Illinois this week will lose

Purdue wins big. Take it to the bank.

God, I love that movie.

Before you respond, let me remind you: Brian Cook called me smug, which makes me the Obama of smugness. I'm basically Smugbama.

All right. Then get me an avocado, an ice pick and my snorkel. Trust me, bro. I’ve made bongs with less. Hurry up!

For Buddy Light's Ballsiness

If he wins, I feel that the entire staff must procure him a bottle of the Swedish Goose, some Kahlua, and grocery money for some half and half.

They took the bar, the whole fucking bar!

What about the Oreos?

I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.

I like Purdue big as well.

Illinois just can’t score at all take the under. Also like Minnesota to keep it close in the weather and Indiana to work some magic in front of the 37 people at Ryan’s field.

by Argulor on Oct 23, 2009 3:35 PM CDT reply actions  

PSU-Michigan: Over 48 (lock), Michigan +4.5 (I think PSU wins but fails to cover)
Illinois-Purdue: Purdue -10
Iowa-MSU: Iowa straight up
Minnesota-OSU: Minnesota +16.5
Indiana-NW: Over 53.5
