Teddy Greenstein's Big Ten football picks

What if college football threw an epic kegger and the Big Ten was not invited?

Actually the league of Bo and Woody did get the Evite but mainly hit decline.

The national slate is loaded with potential instant classics such as Alabama-USC, Florida State-Ole Miss, Georgia-North Carolina and UCLA-Texas A&M.

The Big Ten is giving us the likes of Hawaii-Michigan and Kent State-Penn State. Only three games feature matchups of Power Five teams, and four lack official spreads (Furman-Michigan State, Eastern Kentucky-Purdue, Murray State-Illinois and Howard-Maryland).

This column will home in on the eight Saturday games that feature two FBS teams. Please note: These picks are against the spread. Use them at your own risk. And the lines, taken from Pregame.com at noon Thursday, might have shifted.
