These are my week 4 football picks. Last week, for the second straight week I went 5-1. Bringing my grand total for picks this year to 13-5! Not too bad, if I do say so myself. The only game I missed last week was Florida beating Tennessee. Again, one loss for the last two weeks isn't too bad.

This is going to be a pretty big football week. Clemson has a big test at home against Florida State. Alabama has a ranked opponent in Ole Miss coming to Bryant-Denny Stadium on Saturday afternoon. And last but not least there are two top ten ranked teams playing each other Saturday night in Ohio State and Notre Dame!

See what I mean when I say it's going to be a big football weekend? And that's just Saturday! There's another full slate of NFL games on Sunday.

I'm not officially picking the Georgia/UAB game or the Falcons/Lions game, however, I'm predicting wins for both of my teams again this weekend. Again those are unofficial picks, so they don't count towards my official win/loss total. I'd love to go undefeated this week, but I'd settle for another 5-1 record.

Let's not delay it any longer, these are my week 4 football picks!

4 Florida State at Clemson

This game is Saturday at Noon on ABC and FSU is favored by 2. I'm shocked this isn't a primetime game. I guess if Clemson were ranked it probably would be. I think that this will be a pretty tight game. It's going to be a true test for both teams. I'm going out on a limb here, I'll probably regret this, but I'm going to pick Clemson in a close one at home. If they lose, I'm blaming it on Tee and O'Kelley!

Dub's Official Pick- Clemson

15 Ole Miss @ 13 Alabama

This is the SEC game of the week, so it gets the Saturday at 3:30 time slot on CBS. Bama is favored by 6.5 points. Alabama was embarrassed by Texas at home a few weeks ago, and they only put up 17 on South Florida last week. I think Coach Saban lights a fire under the boys this week. They're ranked outside the top 10, and they can't afford another loss, let alone at home. Gimme The Tide by 14.

Dub's Official Pick- Alabama

6 Ohio State @ 9 Notre Dame

This game is set for Saturday night at 7:30 on NBC and Ohio State is favored by 3. I think this will be another close game, but I think in the end Ohio State pulls out a win. Gimme The Buckeyes by a field goal.

Dub's Official Pick- Ohio State

The Tennessee Titans @ The Cleveland Browns

This game is Sunday at 1pm on CBS and The Browns are favored by 3. I honestly haven't really had the chance to follow much of what either team has done yet this season, so I'm kinda going into this one a little blind. Both teams have a win and a loss on the season so far. I'm gonna take Tennessee by a touchdown.

Dub's Official Pick- The Tennessee Titans

The New Orleans Saints @ The Green Bay Packers

This game is Sunday at 1pm on FOX and The Packers are favored by 1.5 points. The Packers looked good against the Falcons last week, and almost pulled out a win. This one will be close I think, but I like Green Bay's chances this week, especially playing at home. I'll take The Pack by 2.

Dub's Official Pick- The Green Bay Packers

The Pittsburgh Steelers @ The Las Vegas Raiders

This game is Sunday night at 8:20 on NBC and The Raiders are favored by 2.5 points. This is another matchup that I'm going in blind on. I haven't really caught much of either team so far this season, but I think The Steelers want to make a statement on the road, and pick up two wins in less than a week. Gimme The Steelers by a touchdown!

Dub's Official Pick- The Pittsburgh Steelers
