James Madison is undefeated and ranked. But they recently lost their appeal for a waiver to become eligible to play in a bowl this year. Obviously very disappointing.

Sparty @Hoosiers
Lots of disappointment among these two teams. These teams plus Purdue are OUT for a bowl spot. Gotta wonder about motivation here, if any, on either team. The line is right where I figure it should be given that Hoosiers have played well the last 3 weeks. Pass.

East Carolina @NAVY
Normally I would look closely at picking NAVY at home but they have serious QB issues. PASS

@fubah2

Are you talking about CJ Donaldson? I know the line has adjusted from 7 to 5. I assume it was because of his injury. It's really too bad about the Kansas QB's. I really thought this was their best chance in years to upset KSU. I'm kind of liking the under 57 in that game. I feel like the Jayhawks defense will step up today. Good luck!

Big question marks today:

will Abilene Christian cover +40.5 at Texas A&M?

will Chattanooga cover +42.5 at BAMA?

Yeah, Donaldson. Big Q!  Have to monitor that and likely wait and see how he plays IF HE DOES.

@DrStrangelove

Well, we'll see what the QB situation is in warmups around 6pm ET today. Actually think Daniels may have the better chance at playing since BEAN has a head injury and I would think they want to be very cautious there.  Have no idea about their 3rd stringer. But I think you're spot on about the Jayhawks defense. They will bring their "A" game for sure, but a 3rd string untested QB leaves too many questions if thats the case, so yeah, then an under has a lot of appeal. peace_5

Purdue @NWU
Seriously, I have no idea why the Boilermakers are favored here as a roadie. They are OUT of bowl contention for a reason! Yeah they played very well last week in a win over Minnesota but that was a HOME game. Wildcats meanwhile, played equally well last week in a win over Wisconsin ON THE ROAD! Wildcats are fighting for a bowl spot, and with two games left - their final game will be on the road against Illinois who are likely to be desperate for a win themselves - the Wildcats know their best chance to secure a bowl berth is NOW against the 3 - 7 BoilerMakers in front of Northwestern's hometown fans. Consider they just elevated Braun to fulltime HC status (joy!) and they got their best QB back from a 3 game absence last week where he led the Wildcats to thump Wisconsin ON THE ROAD no less! Wildcats are surely the SLIGHTLY better team, playing well with the return of their top QB, desperate for a Bowl shot, and yet they are installed as home underdogs to a 3 - 7 squad?!?! WTF?!?! Sure Purdue will put up a great effort in what may well be a close game, but I gotta go with the perceived value here on a LIVE homie, don'tyathink?
Or am I completely missing something? If so, please advise...

And can North Alabama Stay within +48.5 pts of the Seminoles?

(Yes, there's a team in North Alabama.  The Lions)

Tulane @FAU
The line looks right to me and so it's a coinflipper against the spread.

UTAH @ZONA

Biggie!  Tough one to gauge for any solid edge, if there is one.  This Fifita  dude looks good. Real good! Since taking over as starter for the injured DeLaura, Fifita in just 6 starts has thrown for 16 TDs against only 4 INTs!! His first game as a starter he narrowly lost by one score to Washington. Since then, he almost upset the Trojans at USC in triple OT; went on the road to rout Wash.State 44 - 6; then beat both Oregon State and UCLA! However, Utes are very good too, despite a close loss to the Huskies last week.  Pick'em.  I'll look for an ingame opp here if there is one.

Wolverines @Maryland
Mismatch as to a SU winner of course, even if coach Harbaugh is watching on tv. Through seven conference games each, Michigan has an average per game pt differential over 30+, including on the road, while Maryland is only break even. an_lightBut here's the elephant in the room: the big show down NEXT WEEK with Buckeyes for Big Ten east title! Serious lookahead here! Wolverines desperately can't afford to lose anybody during the Maryland cakewalk! I'm wondering if Wolverines have the game in hand by halftime or shortly thereafter, they might be wise to rest key players and start inserting a number of backups (though not empty the bench completely) That's what I would do and I bet that's what YOU would do too, though unsure what Harbaugh will instruct his team to do in this event. It would seem unquestionably prudent though! It's not just the B10 east title on the line, and a crucial rivalry vs OSU at that, but also a shot at a playoff spot and maybe a national title! Given the stakes, and the wisdom of Michigan yanking key players in the second half, I wonder if a Maryland backdoor cover looms here. Am I the only one who thinks this?

Bad play calling by Purdue has allowed NWU to keep a tenuous 6 - 0 lead....that likely won't last though...

Damn....I'm on NWU to win for big bucks! but we just got lucky as spunky Boilermakers were driving then fumbled at midfield. NWU offense is hit and miss though.

Purdue is missing a top pass rusher but are still smothering Bryant on almost every dropback an_speechless  Now they are knocked out of FGA range...but down the ensuing punt at the 2!  Still 6 - 0

Wolverines desperately can't afford to lose anybody during the Maryland cakewalk! I'm wondering if Wolverines have the game in hand by halftime or shortly thereafter, they might be wise to rest key players and start inserting a number of backups (though not empty the bench completely) That's what I would do and I bet that's what YOU would do too, though unsure what Harbaugh will instruct his team to do in this event. It would seem unquestionably prudent though! It's not just the B10 east title on the line, and a crucial rivalry vs OSU at that, but also a shot at a playoff spot and maybe a national title! Given the stakes, and the wisdom of Michigan yanking key players in the second half, I wonder if a Maryland backdoor cover looms here. Am I the only one who thinks this?Jacksonville State -318 *BB 5u;  JMU Dukes -333 *BB 3u; Oklahoma -13 -490; Liberty -16.5 -400Adding LIVE BET after Purdue punts on opening drive: NWU -145 *BB 10uBad play calling by Purdue has allowed NWU to keep a tenuous 6 - 0 lead....that likely won't last though...Damn....I'm on NWU to win for big bucks! but we just got lucky as spunky Boilermakers were driving then fumbled at midfield. NWU offense is hit and miss though. Purdue is missing a top pass rusher but are still smothering Bryant on almost every dropback   Now they are knocked out of FGA range...but down the ensuing punt at the 2!  Still 6 - 0
OMG we just got lucky AGAIN, with only 35 ticks left from the 2, Purdue throws an INT at the 20!!

Wildcats meanwhile, played equally well last week in a win over Wisconsin ON THE ROAD! Wildcats are fighting for a bowl spot, and with two games left - their final game will be on the road against Illinois who are likely to be desperate for a win themselves - the Wildcats know their best chance to secure a bowl berth is NOW against the 3 - 7 BoilerMakers in front of Northwestern's hometown fans. Consider they just elevated Braun to fulltime HC status (joy!) and they got their best QB back from a 3 game absence last week where he led the Wildcats to thump Wisconsin ON THE ROAD no less! Wildcats are surely the SLIGHTLY better team, playing well with the return of their top QB, desperate for a Bowl shot, and yet they are installed as home underdogs to a 3 - 7 squad?!?! WTF?!?! Sure Purdue will put up a great effort in what may well be a close game, but I gotta go with the perceived value here on a LIVE homie, don'tyathink?Or am I completely missing something? If so, please advise... OK, I guess I'll bite:  NWU WILDCATS -122 *BB 5u Wolverines @Maryland Mismatch as to a SU winner of course, even if coach Harbaugh is watching on tv. Through seven conference games each, Michigan has an average per game pt differential over 30+, including on the road, while Maryland is only break even. But here's the elephant in the room: the big show down NEXT WEEK with Buckeyes for Big Ten east title! Serious lookahead here! Wolverines desperately can't afford to lose anybody during the Maryland cakewalk!

And then the NWU dummies miss a makeable FGA with a kicker who had only missed one all year....NWU has to slow that Purdue pass rush. They do that and they win easily.

Not sure what the heavily favored Sooners are doing at halftime but they are facing a BYU opp that is playing above their collective heads.  This is not only tied at 17 but an EVEN game statwise too...
