Baum's can't miss picks of the week: Week 4

Hello everyone and welcome. Football season is upon us once again and that means time for some guessing and gambling. And because you are busy heating cheese dip and passing out at halftime, we here at PerformanceEnhancedBlogging are giving you five for-sure picks that will allow you to keep your sad and poorly funded little operation afloat for one more week.

Baum was 2-3 last week, making him 7-8 on the year.

1. Arizona State (+12) @ UGA
Georgia has scored points in bunches but the defense has been lackluster. Eventually Joe Cox and AJ Green won't be able to keep up. Luckily for them a mediocre Sun Devil team will not give them too much of a test, but will have some extra motivation looking to avenge a home loss to the Bulldogs last year. Georgia wins, but doesnt cover

2. Florida @ Kentucky (+21.5)
Kentucky is a huge home-dog to number one FLorida. But the Gators were exposed by a far weaker Volunteer team in the Swamp last week. The Wildcat's D is nothing like that of Tennessees but their offense can keep things close. Floirda wins by 19.


3. California @ Oregon (+5.5). Lay the points, take Cal...Jahvid Best is too good.

4. Atlanta Falcons (+4.5) @ New England Patriots
The Falcons are hot and playing well on both sides of the ball. Tom Brady is still shaky coming of a missed year. This one will be decided by a field goal, and Atlanta may win it outright.

5. Indianapolis Colts @ Arizona Cardinals (-2.5)
Don't get caught up in the hype. Peyton Manning and Reggie Wayne will be too much for the Cards defense. Colts will win it 28-26.
