Yeah just FYI I have picked my share of week 1 duds in the past lol .. its entirely possible BG craps themselves and lose by 2+ TD's I mean were talkin BG here .. I can at least see how books arrived at this huge line... Lib seems to have a TON of baggage that the models don't account for though and like Loeffler, think BG heading in the right direction and are just showin up playin to win ... play a clean game think they can hang within a score .. get a little lucky and maybe pull a stunnahhh .. - GOOD LUCK BUD!

I've been hearing rumors that Dekkers is in trouble for gambling and faces suspension. The Clone forums have been lighting up with the news, but so far nothing official has come from it. They've said that 5 other ISU players have been accused of gambling, with 15 total including the other sports. If true, how big of a suspension this produces is anybody's guess. Hopefully just a game or two and not a season. Just wanted to let you know what "might" be coming if you haven't alreasdy heard. Unfortunately I've already played the ISU over 5.5. Although I think it was a bit of an iffy bet anyway with ISU having to play 5 Big 12 road games. But they've always had the D to compete. Let's hope Dekkers can play. He has an elite NFL arm, and was rumored to be one and done after this season. He might be one and done alright. But not like he expected...

Nice intel buddy, thanks! .. Cyclones can win the conf!!! lol sheesh I gotta lay off the crack pipe .. that stinks if true I had some hopes if they could reignite a run game but Dekkars out yeah that might be kindof a small problem hahaaa ..
You got any 411 on the other Iowa's situation?... def wouldn't mind knowing that situation before everyone else!! .. I was expecting -24 vs Utah State been hanging around at -21 for quite some time now .. think it quickly pops 3 higher or 3 lower (at least) whenever the big news drops ..
Yeah if suspensions are handed down before the ssn then obvi gunna be out at least week 1 .. even if not handed down almost wonder if AD's try to hold guys out week 1 and pray that was suitable since they'll be back for week 2 lol ..

The only thing I've heard about Iowa was something I read in passing in a Clone forum from a poster who said some Iowa players might be in trouble for the same thing. I didn't give it much thought at the time, but now that you mention it, I'll have to look into the Iowa situation and see if there's anything to it. I have a feeling we are going to see more and more of these gambling issues with players. Especially now that they have some of that NIL money to spend on these gambling websites. It's gotta be tempting. I know it is for me...lol

yeah I think that sounds right, there were some FB players were involved for Iowa but its very hush hush on who or how many .. hard to imagine the first thing Macnamera did after he enrolled was take off his body cast and bet on Iowa sports but .. just can't underestimate these people ..
Oh the gambling thing could be the next pandemic if anyone reallllly looked into it .. or .. maybe it was literally just happening at the two big Iowa schools lol .. we'll see..

what do you think about Wyoming +14 over Texas Tech Week 1?
Rough spot for the Red Raiders, especially since they host Oregon in Week 2... Wyoming is always pretty tough at home in what's always a tricky/weird environment for most visiting teams...Since 2019, Cowboys are 7-2 ATS as Home Dogs, according to team rankings website!

Wyoming or nothing for me and I suspect it'll be nothing .. my prob is Tech's D was pretty good LY and not easy to drive on .. no indication Wyo will have any better pass game this year and just browsing LY see quite a few spots the O got itself cornered when it couldn't run the ball .. seems like we really want Tech's offense to show up making mistakes, could happen, wouldn't surprise me if they made so many they blew the game lol .. but yeah if we get a clean-ish game then think decent chance we'll be stuck needing Wyo to land us a backdoor TD, really don't want that .. Just tough to cap, we haven't seen Wyo play this kinda big pass heavy offense in some time, maybe say Fresno LY obvi that was an ugly result but can't compare the situations that was after a total bubble bust vs Boise .. maybe last time was Wash State back in '19, coogs romped em .. agree big game on deck for Tech .. 7k feet doesn't sound like a sure thing mistake free practice game ..
Not talkin ya out of it .. feels like it could go either way .. good luck!

Great thoughts, thanks bud! Yeah, I'm pretty high on Tech this year, so it makes it tough to fade them, even at what I feel is a great spot for WYO...Cowyboys sure got throttled on the road LY vs Illinois in the opener, which is stuck in my head and makes me worry!

Play really hinges on a real ugly projection for Stan combined with the new coach situation and a bad to maybe epic bad week 1 spot.. Stan's roster situation is very deserving of SP+'s #130 ranking, unlike some of their Ret-Pro neighbors like Tex St, CU, Stan wasn't able to take in much via the portal.. FIU's top LB, couple ivy league OL's, Cuse's backup QB prospect Lamson was actually not bad in the spring game. But they got a few entire units wiped out plus some xfers were the depth players who woulda played this yr. The OL is challenging 1 starter at 300lbs, others 290 some. 1 exp WR returns, 3 inexp QB's trying out, RB looks okay bad. The D front didn't get throttled that bad and some talented LBs return but same group was dead last in yds / rush last year. The D survived by holding QB's to 58% comps but this yr the back end of the D might easily be the biggest problem on the entire team.
Sooo new coach Troy Taylor has a bit of a project lol. Any team in this situation going on the road layin over a TD week 1 would auto get my attn as a likely fade shot .. Assuming they need some level of development FB Hawaii looks like a clear spot to do that .. after The Bows they go B2B roadies into the final installment of their epic rivalry @USC. They've played that one almost every year since 1919 missing for only the most disruptive of world events like The Great WW2 and The Great Flu Spoof.. Whatever their best punch is they gotta throw it for at least a half of that one. Then Taylor's old team pre-ssn #10 FCS Sac State is no doubt a circled must win game, way bigger embarrassment if they can't win the home opener.. Then (theoretically) winnable home conf game vs AZ, Oregon rivalry, BYE, @CU is maybe their last winnable game. Haw is easily their least significant opponent and week 1 late night roadie easy call to play developmental football, QB tryout and a number of depth players. Of course Taylor maybe sees a shots at a win and has his coordinators put a good game plan together, finds his best QB in fall camp and plays all his best players. Taylor doesn't seem to be under any kinda bowl delusion after listening to him he see's the big picture best move is to use this Hawaii game to figure out what he has on the roster. The play is more iffy if Stan really wants to show up and smother these guys but even then still catchin 10 at home vs an ugly team in an ugly spot and play goes bigger if we hear Taylor start managing expectations which if that's the case I think he'll make clear to us..
As far as Hawaii goes this is a MASSIVE game for Timmy C, doesn't matter if Stan eventually goes 0-12 its week 1 this is a total tone and direction setter for his team.. No clue what their max effort will look like but we'll see it here and will have a game under their belt going @Vandy again in week zero. Hawaii was alot more competitive LY about mid way thru after 4 early horrific drubbings. And a bit of irony here w Stan basically in their seat LY lookin like a pig at a luau. Bows should have much better command of their run n shoot offense this year which took basically all year to install. The only decent QB returns and could also improve on a nearly decent run game from LY.. The D could also be improved w alot of ret starters and quite a few portal adds.. Lot more to like this year think lot of ways this could end w a Bows Win .

Some Wolfpack Fun in Week 5!!! .. Like both teams but Ville seems a bit overrated in my view gotta like Brohm but the D really drove the team last year and they lose their 2 best guys up front total havoc machines to the NFL and maybe most important piece is lose the DC who went to Cincy with Satterfield .. Cardinal's D was a step up in class last year SP+ finished them top 25ish and on their best day were pretty awesome .. in comes Ron English who pitched one good season of D at Purdue in '21 when he Co-Coordinated with Brad Lambert who came in from Marshall for that year .. Lambert left after that yr and the D really sunk wayyy back .. maybe a good position coach but not as promising as a DC, before Purdue at E.Mich and SJSU he had some pretty ugly D's, maybe expected but really handed the keys with potentially a good D and no faith that he's carrying the load here .. SP+'s ratings for Ville basically say the D will be just as good .. we'll see ..
looking at NC State and we can count on their DC fully my reads on them are they've got most of that side figured out even w the losses think we can count on them over performing and don't see any large gaping holes left over they have the starters pretty well figured out and finding some up n comers in the ranks .. The exciting part for them is bringing in Robert Anae from UVA via Syracuse and Brennan Armstrong .. BA was very good w Anae in '20 and '21 before UVA's O fell apart amidst the staff changeover w Tony Elliot.. an offensive guru mastermind he is not.. even w Armstrong and a good group of WR's the offense sunk to unreal lows .. who the coach is matters.. Anae went to Cuse LY and Shraeder went from 52% to 65% completions pretty much an unheard of jump in accuracy .. Anae and Armstrong unite again and using a little logic I think we get some good results and maybe a revived run game too .. lotta ways for NC State to be surprise better this year and their SP+ projection puts them at about an average offense .. the concern w them is the WR group but adding Rozner from Rice really helps this guy definitely looks like 'the guy' and if he could produce at Rice he's gunna be fine here ..
Part to really like is this is a BIG Friday night home spot for the Wolfpack and coming in off VMI and UVA which is also a Friday game giving them a full week (at least) to prep for this one and home gm vs Marshall on deck isin't something they gotta worry much about .. Ville goes @Indy (in lucas oil) for a big game, BC and then into NC.State with Notre Dame on deck so lot more stuff to focus on besides this game .. Ville also lost their ace kicker to Michigan and have a high rated but unproven one this yr.. NC State grabbed WKY's kicker whose 80% over 39 starts and is pretty good .. NC State always showin up w a good special teams there's alot to like about that in a pick'em gm.. I think the teams should be pretty close to evenly power rated and we're getting a pick'em in that killer spot .. feels pretty good .. GO WOLFPACK!

We're already on the under 54.5 good hit so far since its at 51.5 now and still don't hate it there given some recent developments. But we're also on Fresno's RSW and one of the reasons I liked U8.5 was because they played 2 P5 schools on the road and felt decently good about the prospects of losing to both .. at this point I don't think we can count on Purdue though and this serves as a hedge and very possible we get a low scoring game where maybe Purdue just eeks out a win here .. So this play is really for anyone on Fresno's win total with me I still like the win total but maybe we serve this up and won't sting as much if Fres can eek 9 wins out w Purdue looking more like a tossup in my mind ..
Walters' first fall camp shaping up to be a house of horrors in the injury department.. Corey Gammage looked to maybe be their best WR, a great get via the portal from Marshall .. he decommitted .. Reports are in that FAU xfer Jahmal Edrine is OFY w an ACL .. Garrett Miller proj starting TE went OFY LY is still being eased into camp he's very questionable for the opener .. projected starting center Hartwig is in the same boat inj LY being 'eased back in' .. the backup center got carted off during their scrimmage .. 20 days to the opener and Purdue's O was already an area to reallly keep our eye on as an ugly unit all of a sudden seems maybe in real trouble ..
Hard to get a beat on Fresno they went into camp with offensive concerns and what seemed like a solid D returning .. I didn't see any real concerning injuries some deep depth guys dinged up was it .. RB/WR will be inexp but sounds like a decent group that's not lacking numbers of capable players .. the D sounds like a real good group probably one we can count on building off last year .. it sounds like the best case scenario for them think they'll be competitive in this game..
Already on U54.5 and wouldn't balk at anyone hitting U51.5 I'm surprised the total hasn't nudged again on the Purdue injury news .. Fres +5.5 is down to 5 at some spots I would expect 4 or so by kickoff and the ML odds won't be better either ..
FUN BET
FRESNO +6/U51.5 ... 2.7-1
.. hit this yesterday at BM before the line moved down half pt.. think we get a good correlation on it .. can't do ML/Under yet anywhere but that's one to look at too .. GOOD LUCK!

Keep it short here .. Don't see any glaring holes w the Redbirds and w Gabbert back should be alot better on offense .. def some questions at skill positions but considering the QB turmoil last year think we can get comfortable w them being productive here .. the D looks pretty strong and theirs is often a bit scrappy but gotta respect Phil's opinions and he's sayin maybe the best D of the HC's idk like 9 years there and put em as a top most improved team .. I didn't catch all of their Kentucky game LY but sounds like an ATS heartbreaker and the part I did catch they looked pretty good early on ... held the Wildcats to under 2 yds / carry tied 10-10 at the half .. then UK runs the kickoff ret back, then fumble gave em an easy TD .. UK put a late TD on em 37-10 freak final .. I think the move is show up to this one and try to 'get it back' ..
I expect the hurricanes to be much better this year but always a chance they aren't and if they aren't on their game right away then no reason they should be laying this line off the bat .. and you see an absolutely mammoth game on deck like Texas A&M revenge spot at home and I think it sets up well for Cristobal to make this a spot to work out any kinks necessary .. and no doubt they'll still have a few. .. Miami Oh on the other hand has Umass on deck and countdown to Miami is on for them while countdown to Week 2 is probably what the Canes are thinking .. I will say if they are anything close to last year's team then might as well take the ML here .. got some faith in the Canes but nobody seems to self destruct like them and doesn't seem impossible for them to show up making mistakes and not play a good game here .. we'll see but 18 is a big number, seeing mostly 17.5's now which seems fine too .. GO REDHAWKS!!

^^like the redhawks in this matchup and everything you say is true...redhawks have a sneaky good D, and this could be a classic case of one team really wants to perform well vs a team that might be dis-interested...Miami OH LY vs Ky...10-10 ky gets a FG right before half. 13-10...Ky returns 2nd H kick off for a TD, immediate fumble and 2nd TD 2nd H 48 seconds later. Miami OH QB goes down, they have a phantom holding penalty (or lineman downfield) on 3rd and 6...play would have set them up for 1st n goal, instead 3rd and 11, turnover on downs, only possession they have in the 4th quarter...viscous. Hawks were +20...lose 13-37 after playing them fairly even...
they have to even out on the injury luck, and hopefully can run the football a bit better with the threat of competant passing game. Friday night in miami, no crowd, could be onto something with the HAWKS!!
Until the wallet is full.

I like it. Miami, OH is one of my "spread beater" teams this season. I've also got the Canes ranked pretty high on my list. But I don't like the 3 td spread the week before Texas A&M. I don't see the Canes showing the Aggies much unless they have to. Ironically, I've also got A&M ranked pretty high on my ATS list. So something has to give.

Good stuff doc yeah Miami my first conf pick 20-1 .. turn around and fade em week 1 and think both could be true .. yeah don't want to bet into a big potential improver I got both Miami's and AM on a list too .. and great point not showin AM the secret sauce, its not easy to call out look ahead games in week 1 but there's a variety of reasons we may not get the best play in this situation and Cristobal gotta know that AM can't have much of a beat on them from game tape LY between the meltdown and zillion backups playing, ton of portal adds, new coordinators, etc .. so yeah best bet is take an easy W but still keep em guessin .. but either way think we're getting a good line for a couple reasons.. Miami Oh I recall was a popular week 1 play LY and its basically the same team and situation only alot more experienced .. the stats vs UK indicated a 1 score game w some upset potential as UK's run game was held to under 2/carry!!! .. if they cover that one were def not getting 17+ here .. but also Miami O on an ugly season w missed expectations, injured QB, and I get why nobody was in a hurry to slam this line down .. hard to see it going north without an injury w the big gm on deck spot.. maybe some fan money comes flooding in on da Canes but can't imagine toooo many people are dying to lay this number w da canes.. if ya peep Paul Stone's podcast he'll tell ya why, Miami as a single digit fav is something like 8-18 .. STRAIGHT UP!!! lol .. South Beach money pools been drained over the years .. runnin a bit dry lol .. and Cristobal of all coaches just reallly doesn't seem like a coach that's gunna help his big fav backers out lol I'd have to check how he did elsewhere but Mr Culture guy yeah like last thing he's doing is getting his team riled up like the old days droppin exclamation points on MAC teams .. good luck bud!
