Good luck today odds! I am on it with you for 3 units (my biggest college bet of the year) and I have it as my 3rd biggest play ATS in our bowl mania confidence sheet. I capped it myself and like the play a lot. The weather isn't a concern at all for me (high winds) because Toledo should be able to run the ball very well and the underneath mesh routes will not be effected as much by the wind. AFA has to be very sharp in this game to stay within 10. I lean the UNDER due to the winds but decided that 3 UNITS in this game is enough. Let's get it!

I was kinda thinking what RodWoman said...so many reasons and posts about why Toledo will win that it makes it look like they're giving away free money...good luck with your pick though OB...i was/still might be on the same side....haha...

Any reason for the line jump to -4.5? Odds you still like Toledo at this line?

I have Toledo winning this game by double digits. However your security blanket the FG is now gone. Yes I personally would still bet the -4.5 or -4 rather large but more so like a play of the day selection and not a play of the year type play...

Toledo has speed all over teh field on offense. I truly question how Air Force can keep up with that....BOL...

Interesting play of the year with a defense as suspect as Toledo's is.  Good Luck though.

Said the exact same thing in my analysis: 

Toledo vs. Air Force

Air Force has 7 wins. Two of those wins came over teams that are not Division 1A. The 5 other wins came over Navy, New Mexico, Army, UNLV, and Colorado State. These 5 teams wins came over teams who had a combined 14 wins. 4 of the 14 wins by Air Force’s opponents were by the teams listed (so, someone was going to get the victory). Another 3 of those 14 wins were accounted for by those teams beating teams that are not Division 1A. The other 7 wins were 2 against the WAC, 2 against the Sun Belt, 2 against C-USA, and Northwestern. The moral of the story is that Air Force is not very good. Toledo’s only 4 losses were by 5 to Ohio State, Northern Illinois by 3, Boise State, and Syracuse by 3 in OT (*cough* refs blew the game *cough* *cough*). After saying I don’t like taking overs or making games a lock in bowls games here is another over and lock. You know Toledo is good enough to score at least 35 and Air Force will score 28. So let’s hope for another TD. 41-30.

Pick: Toledo -3 (Levin Lock)
Pick: Over 70

If you can get a -3 and lay around -120. There is nothing wrong with that IMO....

They are suspect to good passing offenses but rank 25th nationally vs the run. So in this particular spot calling their defense suspect clearly is being said from someone who hasn't taking the time to analyze this game...Just sayin...


BOL...

Good luck Odds....I like Toledo just can't pull trigger on them. I think people are over-valuing the option attack of Air Force. There is a HUGE difference in getting a month to prepare as opposed to 4 days to prepare. Stopping the option is all about assignment football. The more reps Toledo got, the better they'll be at stopping it.

I also think people are putting to much stock in the Notre Dame and Boise State game. Both teams had no interest in playing AF and it was obvious.

Toledo is a very good team......hell I may have just talked myself into playing them now.....

BOL Odds!!!!

One more interesting stat to add to this thread before the game.  "Average height on UT's OL is 6-5 with an avg weight of 298. Avg height & weight on Air Force DL is 6-3, 257."...

Toledo can run the ball well so i'm not worried about the reported gusting winds....

How in the world is this spread only at - 3?

You'll be glad to know that I'm not betting this game. I would have surely jinxed it. Should be a winner.
