Buffalo @ Army -15.5
Army faced UTEP who boasted the nation’s
2nd leading rusher and didn’t when they came out with only 11 carries for 67
yards. Army is coming alive this year and is great in all 3 phases of the game
and murdered UTEP 66-10. Incase you didn’t dial up campusinsiders.com for the
buffalo game last week you missed a team that can't put drives together, not
yet coordinated on O and gives up big rushing yards especially on sweeps/off
tackle and other plays toward the perimeter. Buff has very few TFLs thus far
and don’t see them stopping this machine. Army has veteran DB’s and looks good
on D. Really wanted this under 2TDs but with how Army is rolling like an
absolute machine right now we’ll take this based on the mismatch and Buff not
having seen the Army triple O. Maybe a play?
S.Miss -10.5 @ UTEP
- S.Miss got beat outright LW as over a 10pt fav AT HOME… guess who predicted
Troy would cover on the road and also placed some $ on Troy ML?… lol. Troy has
a legit front 7 that can hold down the run and harass the crap out of a QB..
Mullens was under 50% on his passes and while their run had some success just
wasn't enough.. SMISS' D is sneaky good particularly w the run but held Troy's
QB to 35% passes and rushing under 4ypc... wow how'd that game get to 68
points?!?!?!... Int TD, and other
turnovers deep in their territory, muffed punt... 17-7 10mins in and S.Miss
only had 1 yard... total cleared by 4 points... UTEP doesn't has 10 TFLs in 3
games and gave up 87% passing to the UT freshman.. Mullens is a vet, vet pass,
vet run, vet D, and UTEP doesn't have the D to give Mullen those headaches and
def not after getting smoked by Army 66-14... UTEP #2 tackler Alvin jones
questionable and that won't help.. Maybe a Play?
Syracuse +6 @ UCONN – Someone help me out I mean I know UConn
has a good D but full on basically TD fav here?... No lean just interesting line. Would have to
imagine Uconn +6 also = Under. No Lean
for now..
Penn St +17 @ Michigan - Seems too high, Mich faced an O
that could run and pass and too close for comfort much of the game ending in a
17 pt win… Now comes conference play and the lines tighten up to… 17…. Lol…
Mich O numbers not mind blowing. 2 LBs Questionable for PSU, better check their
availability. Lean PSU +17 for now.
Mass/MissSt. - Mass
has faced 2 great Ds in UF and BC. Getting almost no traction on O. QB Ross
Comis inj last game questionable this week. Last week vs FIU the game was a 34
points total and now facing Miss St who seems to have plenty of offensive
problems… Moosed score last week vs LSU or we’d be calling them a dud already…
Waiting for the total on this one Mass might figure out how to score negative points
if their QB is not playing. Over 24 just seems like too many on the road for
Miss.St, I’d lean Mass and the points if anything. – Waiting
for the Total

BYU/WV - BYU hasn't hit the 20 point mark although they've
faced 3 good pass Ds in AZ, Utah and UCLA. WV held Mizzou under 50% in their
passes which is looing like a legit stat w Mizzou >60% v ECU and UGA… UGA
has a pretty good pass D… WV doesn't have many TFLs but doesn't give up many
either. BYU Rush ~30yds last game but rush D also held UCLA to well under a
hundred also.. UCLA’s leading rusher Soso Jamabo did not play in that one but
BYU has been playing solid D in their games too. Check the total on this one,
could be a very low score. – Waiting for
the Total, Lean WV but 6 prob too much
Pitt / UNC - Definite edge in rushing for Pitt with their
run D and definate edge passing for UNC w decent pass and Pitt's pass D exposed
last week for >500 yds… UNC's D gave up 267 yds to james madison LW but low
numbers vs UGA/ILL so something to look into there.. either way big
deficiencies like this could lead to a pretty high total… Waiting for the Total, Lean UNC under a TD

Urban - Thank you sir, good MO for this week and think there's a couple lines that are still loose stragglers. See above I think you mentioned you like S.Miss too. VI had it under 10 my I would have bet that w no research on that line.. over 10 prob take but def not as gung ho for it.
MBDAN: hahaha yeah so true... I turned it off and checked the score periodically just waiting for the total to hit.. Part of the reason I took it was while some O is put up by those teams they seem to just not get the score as often as I'd have expected. Bullet Meets Foot in 2nd half of that one... Of course right when I tune back in w a min left UGA blows up my ML / Under bet... sheesh, still won the play can't complain.

The same answer I posted above applies to Southern Miss which is why I posted a thread regarding this game. I just do not know how UTEP is going to stop them.

How is Buffalo going to stop Army??? In a rhetorical question, I do not think they can.
I saw the game on that weird off-shoot network... they got some traction in the run, had a size advantage vs Nevada but there not all that great not very mobile.. they have 2 backs that are okay and the their QB Tyree Rodgers is a big fast Cam Newton type without all the skills... They might get some yards but they have a ways to go to winning a game def not one against Army whose got their stuff down pat.. not even close... I hope!

Couldn't tell you I actually plan on dialing up one of their games this week and seeing what they know how to do... think their D is improved and they had some traction in the run but SMISS has a good run D that is not usually the story line with their offense being so great... When I saw UTEP has like 2 TFLs you pretty much know this team is not going to put the pressure on Mullens like Troy was able to... Another weird link to see that one that I'd never heard of. lol.

GA.SO @ W.Mich - two run offenses meet two run Ds… W.Mich with some pass ability might be the only offense we see. Unsure how W.Mich responds to very dynamic run game they haven't met a decent run team yet. Lean G.So w 4.5 points and like to check the total out with this matchup..
NMSU @ Troy - Troy giving 18.5 here… that might be accurate the way they get after a QB.. NMSU just came off record good O and record bad D off of their meeting w Kentucky.. 35-35 at halftime, real scorefest. Troy can def get there by shutting NM down but I think the O has to do something more in this one to get there and after last week we noted 17 quick points came from turnovers and other shenanigans and QB was 35%, I'll go ahead and say points were definitely a misnomer. I think we wait to check the total here I think NM def has a much slower day... Also have your eyes on whether Larry Rose III is back he's just the 1600+ rusher who hasn't played yet this year and if he's back IDK the spread better adjust downward or might be a play here. Waiting for the total... hard to take Troy at 18.5... Might go the other way over 3 TDs..
Duke @ ND - 21.5 - Duke definitely laying another dukie LW against NW. NW found a new offensive weapon in the pass even w only 1.9ypc… Dukes best offensive weapon has been the pass even hitting >300 vs NW, although NW w/out DB Harris last week Hard to imagine ND doesn't wreck this team at home not discounting the beating they just took my MSU... Hard to take over 3TDs it was at 19 earlier per VI, I'd say based on my FAN-BET-O-METER that the 19 number is gone and gone for good lol
Nevada+3 @ Purdue... Lean wolfpack again after more of a tune up against buffalo. Purdue against a little stiffer comp in Cincy didn't get as much traction with the run as they did against E.Ky.. This happens to be the main concern with Nevada's D which is a little light up front and gave up 200+ yards rushing against a bigger OL and decent backs and running QB w buffalo.. but pretty good pass D thus far with scrappy LBs and 2 solid safeties... Purdue put up 400yds passing in their loss to cincy and think they get a little more struggle here and maybe put off their natural game plan trying to run more often here. Cincy had 250 yds passing and rushing against them perfect kinda D for a real dynamic O like Nevada has. Nevada w Hawaii on deck... Purdue w MD on deck.. Lean Nev. +3
Miami OH +20.5 @ Cincy - Miami OH hung in with Wky last week and ended one TD short. Wky didn't put up the huge numbers that this kindof line is indicating and Cincy you can expect to be a pass heavier O. I'll check out more of Miami's games with the hope there's something there to like..

As mentioned above it got to 3TD's so we'll take 3TD's.. NM was 35-35 at the half w Kentucky and gotta say my ML bet was starting to tingle but couldn't hack it in the 2nd half, the famous UK BIG PLAY O came out and even a little D finally showed itself, maybe for the last time ... Troy's D will be a bit of a nightmare for NMSU but as noted Troy's O was the beneficiary of some wacky plays last week and score was a little bit of a misnomer.. QB hit only 35% and offense tallied up only ~300yards or so.. We're thinking this line is just too much esp now in conference play.....And If we get a whiff that LR3 is back and ready to roll this week and line's still +21 BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE.

Agree with you on Georgia Southern, Western Michigan also has a showdown with rival Central Michigan next week, could be the potential MAC preview next weekend in Mount Pleasant
Opposite on the Purdue game, Hazell and his staff are on their last leg and they have to produce a solid victory for this nonconference matchup
BOL to you on your plays

Thanks for the insight there bro, yeah just not sure what now makes GA.SO a TD dog in this one but in all fairness haven't seen enough of them.. Not sold that shutting down NW/NCC/ILL's run games counts as shutting down theirs... Noted on the spot with the big game another thing to consider..
With Nevada, I think there a better team then there getting credit for, definitely deficient in the run w/ small DL but Poly and Buff were 100% run teams virtually and ND well Nev put up a good fight, talent obvi prevailed... Not a fan just caught on that the buff game last week was going to be an easy one at 10 so there on my radar now... but def a big jump from Buff to Purdue, I might take Nev if we hear Markell is not going to play he's the key to their run game w/ Cincy holding the backs to ~75 yds 50 from Markell before he got hurt... Purdue will struggle to keep up w Nev's O will be hard to keep up with w/out him in there so hope there saving him for conf. play.

Clock strikes zero on UK this week, massive O numbers given up against NMSU and even pulled away at the end showing one or two D stops, but it was ugly and Barker questionable probably only helps them if he's out again this week. S.Carolina for all it's follies did allow 400+ O to ECU but made critical plays at critical points including TO's...I don't normally incorporate TO's but let's face it UK's a mega folly and turnover machine. The 2nd play is in part a hedge seeing that points are the key to sinking S.Car here, but sneaking suspicion S.Car with the new QB finds a little O in this one and S.Car ends up making both work. The UK D just can't seem to stop, well anything... UK is #121 in yards allowed, S.Car is #75 after their meeting w ECU giving up 400yds passing. Even w how ho-humm S.Car's O has been I don't see much chance for UK to win and score under 28.. S.Car's new QB last week had a few good looking runs and passes I look for some improvement and that's probably more than enough.. Note S.Car also played some much tougher D's in Miss.St and Vandy so the numbers are skewed down while UK's are skewed way up... last look at S.Car its no surprise they've pulled off a few wins w top 20 recruiting classes for the last 5 years and a few under the radar playmakers have stood out...

nice week and write-ups....only thing not favoring GSU is WMU might be pretty fired up after 43-17 blow out last year...on the other hand with 400+ rushing yards in that one could do similar again unless Broncos come up with a new plan, GL man

Plays discussed in the leans n' notes above but to sum it up these S.Miss and Army are both well oiled machines. UTEP is looking for a little identity after getting destroyed by Army last week 66-10 and Buffalo is trying to figure out how to string a drive together and make a couple stops. S.Miss off the loss at home with Troy and I think they get back to biz in conference play.. None of the reasons Troy was a play last week are a concern with them. Feel good with both plays here.

NOS / Double: Appreciate the comments and 411. I'm on G.S.+7 too... small.. just not as many spots this week i'm finding attractive as you can plainly see... G.S. even feels a little suspect so goin DL w it, no lightbulbs.. lol....

F to the Y....As mentioned we now are getting a WHIFF that RB Larry Rose and LB Derek Ibekwe might be back this week for NMSU... both listed as probable on donbest and see article below ...unsure how much they play but one of the nations leading rushers and their top tackler back from last year changes things a little bit.... spread still hovering at 20. I'm on for a little more but per article Wed is first contact practice and we'll see what kindof contribution they might be making tomorrow.

Bridge - nice card so far. congrats on week 2. curious about the army pick. they lost their starting DB in single car crash, UTEP got its passing QB back, and Army still crushed them in El Paso, not an easy thing for even Power 5 Teams to do. prior to the loss of the cadet, Army beat Rice at home by like 16. Buffalo is obviously garbage, but do you think this focus by Army in Monken's 3rd or 4th year is legit and sustainable. Army giving 2 TD's on the road has to be an extremely rare event. I imagine the raw recruiting talent between Army and Buffalo can't be that much different. Obviously, the books and power averages are incorporating Army's success season to date, but with the 2 TD's are we getting set up by the books. I am looking at Army now. I was impressed with the win at UTEP. Thanks in advance. I will post my picks tomorrow...season to date, good fade material, but I hope for a turnaround! GL

Buffalo is obviously garbage, but do you think this focus by Army in Monken's 3rd or 4th year is legit and sustainable. Army giving 2 TD's on the road has to be an extremely rare event. I imagine the raw recruiting talent between Army and Buffalo can't be that much different. Obviously, the books and power averages are incorporating Army's success season to date, but with the 2 TD's are we getting set up by the books. I am looking at Army now.

Word up Longhord thanks for stopping by. I was on Nevada LW bigger than usual against Buff after watching the Buff / Albany game and saw the game w Nev... Buff has some potential on their O... in future years.... after alot more experience... they can't pass there best shot here is they break a few runs but Army D has been stout.. Nev's O shreded buff, killed em big in the run. Army doesn't sound as dynamic but watching their play being physical and precise and Nev is kinda the same way w a vet offense ... This isin't the dagger I thought last week would be, and was, but short trip to buff, and total machine that scored on EVERY drive last game vs team trying to get any kind of consistency down... Maybe injuries, wacky turnovers, other oddball stuff kills the bet but just don't think buff can keep it close on their own.. As far as their players go maybe the same ball park but one's very experienced and Buff lost a bunch of players off the team this summer who didn't want to do FB anymore.. whole O is a new group, D is not stopping much... idk, I'm going w my gut here... ROLL TANKS!

Nevada is a very dynamic O and this year they've run the spread option, read option, triple option under center, play 3 QB's (well), pass well, have the MW 1st team RB and Kincade getting some applause in backup after Akeel Lynch's concussion at ND... I am hearing Lynch is now probable. The whole offense is returning starters btw, except at RB lol... sanz ND which they still had moments in, talent diff was too great and score was fairly low for them. Their D is very susceptible to the run particularly up front w smaller sized younger DLs who just aren't playing at a high level yet. Couple decent DBs and LBs but buffalo was able to have a decent run day against them ~250 or so.... just not enough talent to score...
I have caught only snips of Purdue but what I gather is they really need a D that's soft up front and let their RB run wild.... which they get back this week after Markell Jones was out mid-way through cincy and the O had a poor day. O should bounce back BIG after a week off and getting jones back ... a B1G OL w/ Jones should thrash this smaller softer front and put some drives together.
We were waiting on the word back about Jones and now he's in... total no change... all systems go!
