The Week 9 edition of the Behind the Bets podcast with Doug Kezirian just dropped, and that means it is time for Phil Steele’s first weekly appearance on the blog. He gave out his five official picks, but then tacked on the Florid and Iowa plays when Doug asked for his take on those games. As always, listen to the full thing before investing in these plays. I will be updating this post with any other picks I get from Phil Steele via the Campus Conversation podcast, his Inside the Pressbox preview (if he releases one), or any other places he shows up this week. Check back for the latest picks and plays.
