Hey Boom, as you know, I saw all of Pitt's games, including the trip to Iowa....As you will see tonight on ESPN, if Pitt had a qb, somewhat like Smith of WVU, they'd be so much better....Sunseri is the QB because his old man was All American at Pitt....I've written this before on here that the line for this game, -2 SF, still got me puzzled as I think it's too low, but some here have made a good case for it....With that said, I'm locked in on Pitt, EVEN AT +2, as I think they put it all together tonight on national TV....I'll be at the game, and it's cooler here, in the 50's, with off-on rain all the way through today....Best of luck!!!!...Keep up the good work!

Ole Miss fan for life here and honestly I have never seen a team so unprepared each week and that includes the miserable seasons under Coach O. On that note, I don't know if I can bet Fresno State though. Ole Miss is bad, traveling across the country, but Coach Nutt is coaching for his job this weekend. A loss here and I don't think he will make it through the season. Last week against Georgia, Ole Miss only scored two TDs and both were on trick plays. I am leaning Fresno but don't know if I will make it a play.

BOL on your plays this week Boom on a lot of them myself

He speaks the truth!

This guy is now my personal wagering consultant on this team.
I used to stay way clear of the Tigers but now I can pull the trigger with confidence starting with last week vs FSU 

Thanks Boom, your commission check is in the mail

Damn, what a thread you got going Boom. Seems like you have to do everyone's homework for them without getting the credit...As always pal, GL this week and I am digging the card.

Personally I think Clemson getting 7 is an early xmas gift, I am a huge Hokie fan, named my oldest son after Cory Moore. Va. Tech is not that good ...just not...I agree ride the hot team and the Frosh WR is a BEAST!!! GL

Clem-VT total was to low,they are adjusting it already,up to 51,Aub.down to 10 and Wisc.total went up a point,1/2 point up on Ala.-45 total.
Not to bad as I waited for bets to clear in baseball,great final day as 2 teams finish their big collapsed,Boston and Atl.,gotta love that if your a sports fan.
Sorry back to football,had to throw that in though,as I just cleaned up on Balt.over Boston,
There has been a few guys that have asked about tonight,SF-Pitt,just curious if you have looked at this one yet?Im guessing you dont like it either way,but would you take SFlor.-2 or go under better.

Thanks for all your work and you have saved me from a bad start,thanks for that.GL this week and the Top 10 is a great read.

Kaka.. I actually dont use a ton of trends and statistics. I use my eyes. I have a "feel" for the game...and along with a lot of experience.

After struggling with the two openers, spanking the defending national champ, and showing toughness after the pick six against the Noles, I think these kids are ready for the road trip. Tajh just needs to remember one thing: Get the ball to Sammy and everything will be ok!

 

Also like GT big this week as NC State is an absolute train wreck in all aspects of the game we know as American football. But you know what they say, "even when you know you never really know" GL this week!

hey man!! I agree. I think there is a different swagger about this team. There playing well right now and I think that we a legit shot at wining this game.

 Why? Because I have a " plan "...and I know that through time I will be successful with playing what I believe is the right way. I dont get over excited about a win and down on myself on a loss.

     
Thank you for the answer but you may have left out your call on the UCLA game and question I had above.
Thx for your time and effort.

I know it doesn't match up to what "SEEMS" right. I just think that Stanford may be a tad overrated.. and UCLA is a team who is just hungry for success. This will be a close game.

They got their asses handed to them by Texas at home, and played a close one at Houston. Stanford is in a whole different category than those two teams. I don't see them struggling at all this season, but maybe a close game with Oregon. I know Skov and Owusu are out, but Luck so many other weapons, and that defense did just fine in Arizona. UCLA is giving up almost 200 yards a game on the ground, and with this multiback threat Stanford should have no problem covering this one. Luck's options are wide open. Only way I see UCLA covering is if they cover late on the 2nd string D.

Just wondering you reason for the play man. Much respect to you and BOL. I love your Tigers this week, it's too bad Clemson is not at home so we could get them like +2 or a pk. There would be some good value with them as a home dog. I'm with you on Bama too. Even though its the "Swamp" I think the Tide will be bringing their waders. Florida has met their match, and Bama should win by a touchdown.
Hey man.. Yeah I addressed this in another post somewhere. But this game will be much closer than people will think.

Hey Boom, I like the write ups my friend. I'm leaning Pitt +3 today  and not sure on the O/U 51.5. I like Pitt in this spot at home. I hope they don't have too many turnovers. Any thoughts would be welcome. GT and Baylor are my BIG picks for Saturday. Good Luck.

Thanks man... I m not saying we win this game with complete confidence. But, i do think we have a very good shot at it. I respect the V.T program, those guys have ran the ACC for several years now.... I just think this YOUNG Clemson team is good.
