think you'd be better off taking the points with army in that game...both defenses are weak...both sides should score at will...may not be a good thing for the under

Tulsa brings back 10 starters on an offense that ranked 5th last year... I think they score at least 21... Likewise, the Sooners return 8 starters on offense that ranked 10th last year... Oklahoma will win this game... but it will be a shootout.. I see a 48-28 game

I'm with the over in the Tulsa/Okla game, too much offense coming back for both teams....and Tulsa's D is always swiss cheese.

BOL on the rest

Hey UCFcovers, congrats on posting your first card(or at least I think it is).  If I was on a side it would be Cuse.  I told myself this year if I'm not confident then move on.  As far as Indiana goes, I think they will be bad this year, not bottom 20 bad but bottom of their conference bad. I don't trust Indiana for the first couple of weeks until I see something.  I'm no totals guy. I may do four or five a year and that's only because the evidence I find is too great.

Thanks for the input! I agree with you that IU is gonna be bad this year. But i really think that a below average Big 10 team can beat a average MAC team by at least 6. I guess will see what happens.. That pic is a grey one, but if I get it right ill feel alot better about my intuition when it comes to betting. And I feel you about the confidence thing i really do.

Tulsa/ Oklahoma- Under 64.5                               highest total on the board thusfar...tulsa returns alot from the nations fastest scoring offense...last year they had something like 18 scoring drives under 2 minutes...this team will put up points...with that said...Oklahoma may not punt in this game...this could go one of two ways...OU wins in a close game, 42-35 or OU wins 63-20 either way this goes well over 64...i told myself if this total was anything under 69 i would make it my biggest total play of week one, and at 64 i did just that

Let me know what yall think?

IF Tulsa scores 21, then OU will score 63...I don't think Tulsa will score more than 10...they had 120th ranked pass D and are going up against a QB and a WR who are top 5 in the preseason Heisman rankign in Jones and Broyles...

Tulsa racked up some basketball scores on O against some truly marginal CUSA teams et al...I think OU's superior athleticism and speed will make for a long day on Tulsa's O.

As I have stated before, OU owns the State of Oklahoma...Tulsa is a reasonable threat to OU's LT dominance in the state.  Among the many motivating factors for Stoops to take Tulsa to the wood shed, that is one of them...OU will have 2 while weeks to prepare for Florida State...

I rank OU -21.5 as my top game...
