Week five is in the books, and it looks like another successful week of picking games for yours truly. That's right, I'm all over it. Don't believe me? take a look at the week five results from the Walker-Sports College Football Pick'em.

LSU 20 def. Georgia 13: The LSU defense was simply too much for Cox and the Bulldogs to handle. Georgia was hoping that the hostile confines between the hedges would give them the edge they needed. This was another typical tough SEC game. The spread favored the Bulldogs by 3.5 points, I was wrong about the Bulldogs winning the game, but dead on about LSU covering the spread. We'll call this one a push.

USC 30 def. Cal 3: The Cal Bears have been exposed for what they really are. Last week it was Oregon dismantling them, this week the USC Trojans did the damage. Jahvid Best is no longer a Heisman front runner after beign shut down in consecutive weeks. The spread favored USC by 4.5 points. This was a no brainer, USC wins and covers, making Walker-Sports look smart.
Miami 21 def. Oklahoma 20:This game was as good as any of the Orange Bowl games these two storied programs battled in over twenty years ago. Both schools were looking to put there programs back on track, and for Miami they are right back in the national spotlight. Jaccory Harris was as spot on Saturday as he was off last weekend. The spread favored Oklahoma by a massive 7.5 points, which caught my eye and had me buying Miami. Too bad, I didn't pick them to win outright as well.

Michigan State 26 def. Michigan 20: A week ago the Wolverines appeared to have put it all back together, but those instate rivalry games can be a pain. Michigan State once again was not prett, but they got the job done, and that's all that matters. The spread favored the Spartans by 3.5 five points. If you listened to me, you would have picked Michigan State to cover and win outright and you'd be a winner.
