Well guys on Thursday Night i got Bob Stoop'd as Oklahoma crapped the bed vs Baylor. 0-1 day -$660 35-30 on the season +$4,290. Its a big day today for me because i need to get out of this funk asap. Well lets get to my plays
1. Mississippi State +19 for $330
Just continuing to fade A&M nothing else needs to be said
2. Marshall -24.5 for $1,100
This is a revenge game for the Herd had they beaten UAB LY they would've been in a bowl. They lost LY's game 38-31 as Marshall's offense was stymied. The Herd had a bunch of season lows: 18 1st downs, Season lows in completions 25 as well as attempts 34,337 total yards. They only had 9 passes hit the ground and they were +3 in turnover ratio
As for this year Masrahll comes into the game 5-3 and with 1 win they're bowl eligible. UAB comes in 2-6 they've been a tad of a disappointment imo. UAB has allowed 24+points in every game this year. Marshall's defense has improved to where they're allowing about 22 ppg. But consider that at home they've allowed 37 points for the year
This is their biggest spread as a favorite under Doc Holliday and the last time they were favored by this many you'd have to go back to 04 which was their LY in the MAC. LY's loss cost them a bowl todays win gets them to a bowl. I like Marshall 48-10
3. Tulane +9.5 for $550
I'll admit i was dead wrong on UTSA before the season as i predicted them to finish 0-12 but how are they nearly DD faves to an improved Tulane squad?. Tulane is 4-1 in C-USA this yr needing to keep pace with Rice and North Texas who have the same 4-1 mark. UTSA 4-5 on the season the 4 wins coming against New Mexico,UTEP,UAB, and Tulsa while their 5 losses were to Ok.State,Arizona,Houston,Marshall and Rice. IDK about you but i consider Tulane in the 2nd category and i think the Green Wave cover vs the Roadrunners
4. Fresno State -8.5 for $880
In this game much like the Tulane game Wyoming has 4 wins against N.Colorado,Idaho,Air Force and New Mexico. Whoop-de-do. Coming into the year i wasn't that high on Wyoming. The only way i see Wyoming staying close is if they force Fresno to play ugly. I like Fresno to win by 2-3 td's
5. LSU +11.5 for $330
Everyone has an opinion on the game i'm no different. No logic needed in a game Les Miles coaches. The same team that lost to a beat up Ole miss team and struggled with Furman i'm betting them today vs Bama. Why? Because Les Miles doesn't disapppoint meThis is what he does. When you expect his team to kick someone's a$$ they don't when you expect them to get their a$$ kicked they don't. Les Miles is the equivalent of Lucy holding the ball for Charlie Brown i just think today he'll let me kick it
6. 2 team 6 point teaser Wisconsin -2.5 Michigan -0.5 for $110
All i'd need is both to win by a field goal. Hoke has never lost at HM as HC of Michigan.As for Wisconsin i hate the -8.5 number so by taking it down to -2.5 i won't have to worry as much about a backdoor cover
BOL guys your thoughts are welcome
