Arizona State vs. #18 Michigan State (-14)
Colin’s pick: Michigan State
Colin’s final score: Michigan State 33, Arizona State 17
Cowherd said: “Arizona State is starting a freshman quarterback. There will be bumps. Michigan State just had their best offensive performance in five years. Their defense has only allowed 12 points-per-game this year. I never worry about their defense.”
Actual final score: Arizona State 10, Michigan State 7
Did Colin win? No
#19 Iowa vs. Iowa State(+2.5)
Colin’s pick: Iowa State
Colin’s final score: Iowa State 30, Iowa 24

Actual final score: Iowa State 17, Iowa 18
Did Colin win? Yes
#9 Florida(-8), vs. Kentucky
Colin’s pick: Florida
Colin’s final score: Florida 33, Kentucky 23
Cowherd said: “Florida’s got the right coach. Their offense is humming. Feleipe Franks is 6-0 in his last six games. Their pass rush is first in the country in sacks. I’m taking Florida and their pass rush to give Kentucky’s back quarterback fits.”
Actual final score: Florida 29, Kentucky 21
Did Colin win? No
Week 3 college football record: 1-2
Season college football record: 3-6

Seattle Seahawks vs. Pittsburgh Steelers(-3.5)
Colin’s pick: Seahawks
Colin’s final score: Steelers 28, Seahawks 21

Actual final score: Seahawks 28, Steelers 26
Did Colin win? No
Buffalo Bills (-2) vs. New York Giants
Colin’s pick: Bills
Colin’s final score: Bills 28, Giants 23
Cowherd said: “Buffalo’s coaching staff is fantastic. It’s very rare when you have a great coaching staff and a losing record. Are we sure that Eli Manning is better than Josh Allen right now?”
Actual final score: Bills 28, Giants 14
Did Colin win? Yes
Chicago Bears vs. Denver Broncos(+2.5)
Colin’s pick: Broncos
Colin’s final score: Broncos 24, Bears 20
Cowherd said: “Broncos head coach Vic Fangio was Chicago’s defensive coordinator. He faced Mitch Trubisky every day at practice. He knows what he can do, and he knows what he can’t do. The Broncos haven’t started 0-2 since 1999 — longest streak in the league.”
Actual final score: Bears 16, Broncos 14
Did Colin win? Yes
New Orleans Saints vs. Los Angeles Rams -2.5
Colin’s pick: Rams
Colin’s final score: Rams 31, Saints 26
Cowherd said: “This number has come down and now; I really like it. New Orleans’ reputation is amazing, but they are 0-6 ATS in their last six games. Jared Goff is a different quarterback at home.”
Actual final score: Rams 27, Saints 9
Did Colin win? Yes
Philadelphia Eagles at Atlanta Falcons (+2)
Colin’s pick: Falcons
Colin’s final score: Falcons 27, Eagles 24
Cowherd said: “I like Philadelphia a lot, but they aren’t going 16-0. I think they are vulnerable here. Matt Ryan’s last year at home was special. Carson Wentz is 8-12 on the road. His completion percentage plummets, and his passer rating is in the mid-80s. Philadelphia is the better team, but Atlanta was humiliated Week 1.”
Actual final score: Falcons 24, Eagles 20
Did Colin win? Yes
Blazin’ 5 Week 2 record: 4-1
Blazin’ 5 overall record: 7-3
