NCAA WEEK 10 **** Halloween Week Spooktacular****

Mr Train 69,

I'M DOWN SOME FOR THE TEAR SO FAR,  GOING TO FOLLOW YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS, 

HOPEFULLY YOU CAN CHANGE MY LUCK.

Love gators in the cocktail party, something stinks about the Air Force and army line, keeps rising...

like the Hokies too 

Cool...I"m on VTech and KSU.  Oh, and Army (tailing @DAVIDN). Pretty clueless this week, so I'll run through your other plays and see if I can get on something else.

KSU/KU - Pretty good letdown spot after last week's emotional high.  But as we all know, that doesn't always happen.  Klieman has been in similar situations, having passed through the FCS playoff system while coaching NDSU.  If anyone can coach their team to forget last week and get ready, it oughta be him.  And I may as well say it- imo, KSU's staff is a leg up on KU's crew.

KU has some playmakers and are capable of the big play.  They'll score a bit.  Doesn't matter, their defense is horrible.  They give up more rushing first downs than any team in the country (#130...wtf ).  I think KSU will have plenty of success on the ground.

They typically convert a good percentage of third downs into first downs, but KSU ranks #2 in the country at limiting 3rd down conversions.

Carter Stanley is a decent QB.  I think he's going to get pretty well harassed.

So...there's your homer opinion.

Good luck, tomorrow.   

Man, is that your Top 3?  I would play everyone of those the opposite way.  Probably won't bet the Falcons but think AF it the better side of that game.  Army just isn't the team they were the past couple of years.

I am betting the other two games, have UGA -6, buying the hook, and ND -17, also buying the hook.  Hate giving that many in the ND game but they are at home against a weak Hokies team and have a lot of anger and humiliation to unleash.  Kelly has been taking heat all week, as has Book.  I don't think they hold back.  In the Cocktail Party game, the better rushing team has won the past 13 games, and it isn't even close who that is.  Florida OL is decent in pass protection but cannot run block and the RBs are very average.  Plus, UGA run defense is very strong, and the only team that hasn't allowed a rushing TD all year.  Difference in this game is the Georgia running game behind a dominant OL and superior RBs, not to mention a better QB.  Only edge I see for the gators in this game is their receivers, and that shouldn't be enough. 

Too much change in perception on Georgia because of SC give away, they dominated a game in all areas but was 4-0 in turnovers and that distorted the scoreboard.  Mullen has been crushed the last 2 games against UGA, don't see a 3-4 TD beat down today but think Georgia wins by single digits.  You might get a cover at 7, but think UGA 27-16 is more like the final.  Disclaimer: even though every thing favors Georgia, I have been wrong before and upsets still occur on Saturdays.  One unit on ND, and 3 units on Georgia today.  (Also like Wake, Pitt, and FSU...considering Utah and Oregon)

Good point- and I'm thinking KU doesn't know how to do this.

Speaking of 3 weeks in a row- Texas is worth considering next week.  KSU coming off OU and KU...will be tough to get it up in Austin after back-to-back high stakes games. Not to mention the Horns get an extra week of prep and will get some injured players back...
