Picks: Week of 11/7-11/12

Pretty flat week (6-6; -0.9 units). My best move would have been to take the exact opposite of my 3-team parlay where I went o-fer.

Brutal week for my futures wagers. Took my hit this week on West Virginia winning the Big 12, then watched the Broncos and Steelers win, and saw the Browns and Chiefs lose. I think my Cardinals future last year has skewed me to making futures bets, but the more I try my hand at this, the worse of an idea it seems like.

Trip to the in-laws place on Saturday so I'll take it easy on the college scene and try to hammer the NFL.
