Week 11 Picks by Jimmy the Geek

Game of the Week

#11 Denver @ #12 Tulsa -1

This is a battle of two teams that are looking to get into the top 10 of the rankings. The Dynomite having the #1 scoring offense in the league and are tied for 5th in scoring defense. The Talons offense is no slouch as they are 7th in points scored and 4th in total yards. This should be an offensive shootout. Go with Denver in a mild upset.


Upset of the Week

#28 Detroit -3 @ #32 Albany

Albany sit at the bottom of the ratings but with a win over Detroit they can jump out of the cellar. The Crows have the worst run defense and best pass defense in the league as teams simply run them over throughout the game. Unless FB Chris Beyer gets a bunch of rush attempts, the Vampires don’t have the running backs to take advantage of this poor defense. Albany will ride RB Mickey Mutzel to a big win.
