Kinda Scary...My top two plays are yours as well.  Probably not a good sign.

Some big chalk! 

The Auburn call is interesting... I like it, but the worry I have is that the Tigers/War Eagles/Plainsmen haven't played on the road yet. 

GL this week!

Auburn will be favored by game-time and I take TENN as a dog.  This one just stinks...betters everywhere think TENN is less then average and Auburn is a killer ATS and SU...this is, imo, the Vandy/TENN game last year.  And I took TENN easy in that one.

Love the bearcats (homer in me), and love VT.

Hey NOS...I can't help but drool over Oklahoma -6.5 at Miami.  It's not even a fade Miami play...I think OU is good with our without Bradford.  1st game was a bad break - no one is talking about them, this puts them back on top in a big way.

thoughts?

boom, altfader, sfballa, feed -
 
placin - yeah first thought was Okla number looked light, since i've never seen recent MiaFL teams fare well against great defenses they will probably struggle leaving Shannon looking confused, Jones looked pretty good so far however little tougher spot now and pretty thin at WR, after Broyles and Caleb no WR with more than 3 catches, still Sooners more talent at 90% positions on the field and sidelines, 51-13 in 2007 matchup Canes 139 total yds, most after OU left the field late in 4th
 
ice - maybe we'll get a bounce or two one of these weeks - GL ice

don't get me wrong, Canes much improved over 2007 team, which means probably double their yardage total to 278
 
sorry to hear about Griffin being out for the year, tough loss
 
Va Tech 37 Duke 10 - pretty much an automatic play over the years, before last years 14-3 sloppy matchup including 5 VT turnovers, the Blue Devils no closer than 24 in previous four meetings, Duke's one great player DT Oghobaase hobbling with injury. VT good enough coaching to prevent huge letdown and being conference game - although could ramble on, the Hokies are simply too physical for Duke in this one sided slugfest
 
Cincinnati 51 MiaOH 13 - game was already played couple years ago (47-10) when Redhawks were slightly better than current, MiaOH going with frosh QB now who actually fared pretty well last week statistically, still some mistakes are possible, no shortage of Cincy fans in this crosstown matchup. Bearcats lazy win in last year's game (45-20) although never punted, Pike sharp so far this year (70.5%, 11-2)

BOL Nos
First time poster, long time follower of your work

I'm with you with Vtech, Mich, OSU, Pitt, and Cincy, Colorado St.


Also like Cent Mich -9, South fla -7, and PSU. Any thoughts?

Also on that Mich - Mich St. game it seems to be moving in Mich St.'s favor. Do you know the reasoning why?

kittsd - BOL
 
pweezy - thanks bro, tough call on CMU-Buffalo, Bulls on ATS slide and probably unable to contain CMU, on the other hand Chips have won only 1 road game by double digts last 2 years, might be looking at the over if number is fair. Lean PSU since not wanting Illinois at all, not sure on USF/Syracuse with Daniels still unknown and possible letdown TD might be about right. Fair number on Mich-MSU closer to PK so MSU money probably coming in combined with Forcier injury concerns even though he'll play most likely, GL
 
Oregon 52 Wash St 10 - Cougars lost last couple years to Duck at avg 58-10 clip, Wash St doing pretty well to average 17 ppg this year considering 3 TD passes and 2.9 ypc, Masoli and Duck offense picking up some momentum, WSU picking up some additional OL and DL injuries last week
 
Colorado St 31 Idaho 20 - no good reason really, just a hunch the Vandals are not quite ready for short number against pretty good CSU team and WR making a few plays (16.3 ypc)
 
Michigan 30 Mich St 20 - Michigan maybe some extra motivation after getting killed last year, would rather have Forcier than Spartan QBs late in the game since MSU seems good at losing close ones and Michigan opposite
 
Auburn 23 Tenn 20 - expect typical SEC war and glad to take any points with Malzahn vs Crompton, Tigers solid SEC road team over the years (9-3 straight up throwing out last year), Auburn defense not great so far however believe capable of stepping up when needed
 
Texas Tech 55 New Mex 10 - apparently NM head coach throws a better punch (assistant coach) than game plan, even though Red Raiders unsettled after Houston game (and lost best OL) Lobos have significant advantages in being horrible, Texas Tech and Leach possibly in mood for woodshed
 
Ohio St 37 Indiana 13 - could look like a foolish play by halftime if Indiana plays as good as they looked last couple weeks, will take chances with Buckeye team 7-1 ATS on B10 road last 2 years, Hooiser unlikely to top 2 TDs which leaves OSU needing to reach 30+
 
Pitt 30 Louisville 17 - scary laying wood with the Stache anywhere, pretty good advantages for Pitt though offensively (Pitt 5.1 ypc and 9-1 TD-INT vs 3.7 ypc and 3-4 TD-INT for UL) and neither plays much defense, Cardinal crowd quick to turn on home team these days in UL gets off to slow start
 
Tulsa 41 Rice 20 - doubt Owls can keep pace with Tulsa in annual shootout, 48-43 here in 2007 thanks to Clement 541 passing yds, he's gone now and Rice with 3 TD passes this year
 
 
BOL all

Only 24 posts in the thread? By Monday? The haters must be broke!

I've joined you on Texas Tech...not on any of the other games...I'm starting to think I'm the only one that doesn't like Cincy.

I was actually thinking of jumping on LVille. The feeling passed, I'm better now...

As always...good luck this week.
