BOL this week Nos 

Nos  -  BOl this weekend buddy... Glad to be with you on some of my plays and leans. 

all - appreciate it, BOL

cal - we'll be taking another look at Cal, was expecting around TD before LW results, could be an overreaction and Bears very tough ATS at home, BOL buddy

K4 - yes went stumbling in on BM for part of wager at -4, fortunately the greek was already at lower number when opening a few minutes later so rest at -3, obviously guessed wrong on that line movement, have to take good with bad on those movements, GL

forgot earlier 7 team lottery parlay (0.05-4)....OU, UGA, VT, OSU, ND, PSU and Ohio

With you on Oklahoma -4

all - thanks, GL 

updated week 8

Oklahoma -4 (large) (2u) (1u of wager @ -3)

Georgia -3 (hook) (large) (2u)

Va Tech -26.5 (1.5u)

Ohio St -23 (1.5u)

Notre Dame -6 (1.25u)

Penn St -9 (1.25u)

Ohio -3

Hawaii -3 (-115)

Northwestern +7 (hook) (0.75u)

No Carolina +7 (-115) (0.75u)

Oklahoma 38 Missouri 21....OU owns series lately winning last 4 by 10+, Sooners tougher schedule and more room to step up, Tigers more than 3 TDs only against McNeese and MiaOH, #58 pass defense not enough here

Georgia 34 Kentucky 20...Bulldogs looking for revenge after losing in Athens where UK scored 34 on 260 yards, should be able to run against #87 rushing defense allowing 176 ypg, Locke doubtful again

Va Tech 52 Duke 17....Renfree picked off 10 times in 3 games and Hokies not likely to be contained unless flat and looking ahead, Williams likely returns, VT not as likely to overlook with last two in series 8 and 11 pts and earlier JMU

Ohio St 41 Purdue 10...not seeing inexperienced QB Henry as much threat to OSU defense, revenge spot after 26-18 upset in West Lafayette last year, Tressel 10-3 ATS off SU loss

Notre Dame 30 Navy 17...some concern with ND WR health with Riddick out and Floyd questionable with hamstring, believe he'll probably go and showed progress LW, ND should be ready after losing LY in South Bend, Middies offense seems to lack usual punch this year at #68 total yds and 'only' 9th in rushing

Penn St 31 Minnesota 13...might seem like a stretch to lay points with offense as bad as PSU however #97 defense should help including rushing defense 201 ypg good matchup for running game, PSU likely to get back 2-3 LBs this week

Ohio 30 MiaOH 20....Bobcats have won last 4 in series by 9+, similar offenses so will go with better defense (34 vs 69), MiaOH nothing special at home going 3-7 straight up in MAC over past couple years

Hawaii 34 Utah St 24...although could be down spot for UH believe keep momentum with Moniz (21-4 TD-INT) playing well, good pass defense for warriors and 9-4 ATS lately on mainland

North Carolina 27 MiaFL 24...Harris not at best against better defenses, will favor better QB and coaching, Heels have won last 4 in series SU and ATS

Northwestern 23 Mich St 21....NW pretty solid defense at 18.3ppg and much better offense than Illinois with 425 ypg, Wildcats have covered 4 of 5 in series all as dog

will be looking to add a couple more later in the week

Looking at OKlahoma and Penn St myself.  Good Luck this week NOS

Love OU

as much as Im afraid cause its such a suspiciously short line, I just think OU has the more talanted athletes.

I dont know how much stock you put in ESPN's Big 12 guy, but He said hes buying into Mizzou's D, but thinks OU's O Line is at such an elite level that they will not give up on the run as easily as A/M did, and find their yardage.

I'm seeing like a 27-17 game....

And, I know many are questioning OU's "close" wins...saying it's unimpressive to beat Air Force, Utah St, Texas and Cincy by such close margins, but a closer look at the games reveal OU was ahead in all 3 games by 2+ TDs in the 3rd Q.  If they dont start running clock in those games as early as they did, these games are won by a wider margin.

I'm def on OU......

orange - BOL buddy

D-X, purdue - GL fellas

foolsgood - agree on the OU close wins theory, we'll see GL

not directed to any thread in particular, most times around here every near FG road favorite is called fishy, trap, etc - in reality it's not uncommon for a team 7-9 pts better on neutral field to make road trip and then home team gets 3-5 and people wonder why the line is FG, the line is FG or near because that's how it falls, what are the linesmakers supposed to do leave it at 7-9 as if HF doesn't exist, over 10 years short road favorites will be the same as short home favorites, 10 pt road/home and and every other -/+ home or road number...50%

adding 0.5u to Oklahoma -3 (-105)..majority wager now at -3 (some at -4)

adding

Texas -20 (hook) (1.25u)....Horns lost by 22 to UCLA in last home game, believe that keeps them focused off Neb win, offense might get moving in this matchup...38-10

Cincinnati -0.5/under 55 (teaser) (0.75u)....mixed in some Cincy -7/u48 parlay as well, USF offense less than 300 against FAU and WKU so not much need to ramble on about their problems....24-13

still waiting on line movement on a couple others
