*** Freak Pics!!! *** (Week 2)

Nice post!

This will be the second triple option attack Georgia State will have faced in their past three games.  In the first of those three games we saw Georgia State completely stifle Georgia Southern's usually potent triple option attack last December.  They held them to 203 total yards, and to 135 yards rushing on 44 carriers (3.1 yards per rush attempt).  So I'll take my chances on the 9 guys that return from that defense to slow down Air Force a bit.  Not to mention their aerial attack is of the sorts that pose AF some trouble defensively.  I'll have to pay to see Air Force win this by three touchdowns.

My confidence in the Alabama UNDER is rooted in my belief that WKU won't score much, if at all.

The score was actually 34-0 and, no, that did not cover the spread.  I'm too lazy to look it up, but the line was at least 38.  That's one reason a line south of 30 actually looks palpable.  Not to mention Alabama's offense is much more explosive now, and the defense is tooled to stop the spread, hurry-up.

Yeah, I think South Alabama will get handled pretty well this weekend when the big, bad triple option rolls into town.

I have been super busy, but I will post something on the Arky St./Auburn matchup.

It has come to my attention that Arkansas State football players have been hit hard by the flu all week.  Therefore, I must degrade this play from a "Best Bet" to just a regular bet, and I no longer support a ML play either.

Also, ML wagers are never "Best Bets."  I understand why some of you took it that way, because that's exactly how I posted it.  That was not my intent however.  I corrected it in the updated card below.

Lastly, I already placed my large 3-team parlay for the week.  My exact play is South Florida -14 -130, Arkansas St. +20 -110 & South Carolina +7 -110.  But because of the new revelation regarding Arky St. football players, if you haven't already place that wager and intend to, I recommend replacing Arky St +20 with one of the first half UNDERS (PSU/Pitt, WKU/Alabama, UK/Florida), or (Illinois +7, MTSU +4.5).

Good to see you WCE!  I've been wondering where you have been?

Thoughts on Arky St/Auburn, and Auburn in general?

No strong feelings about Oregon, but there's not much to like with Virginia's week 1 performance.  I would be inclined to fade Virginia here.

I have a stronger opinion on SDSU.  I think they will dominate in the trenches on both sides of the ball, and win the game.  Will they cover the 7?  Your guess is as good as mine.

Bet Illinois +7 and hope you middle it.  Of course TCU will still have to do their part.
