2 safety's from Clemson and Boise.......I like them to win the SBC
AAC is very tough again.....I believe SMU is better and improved team but I'm not sure they closed the gap enough to be a top of the pack team in CONF
I do think they have a better shot at winning 6 than they do of losing 8 which makes this a good bet.
I just cant see them being favored in more than 5 games.
I see 5 wins......And I will be rooting for you to get number 6
Good luck my friend
WOULD YOU.... LIKE TO MAKE MORE MONEY?................
*again....mistakes made by many ......so not just YOU
IMMEDIATELY.....stop handicapping games STANDING ALONE
* a time saver maybe....... but makes ZERO sense
Looking at 1-2 Ark St.....at 2-1 SMU......likely
*Red Wolves a road favorite?.....only if they beat either Miami or Nebraska.....and / or Ponies get murdered by TCU
We know above is unlikely................WHY?
Turn to page 111 in Playbook......within 30 seconds you can see that WOW.....Ark St is a SLOW starter / GREAT FINISHER
* further examination reveals they cover non-conf FBS games at about a 30% clip......under Anderson
$ ALSO...a (tough).CArk notwithstanding.....they enjoy murdering FCS schools .> so..... circle 9/16 vs Ark PB
A WORTHLESS trend?..........only to those that don't understand how coaches think / operate
* it means that BA places HEAVY emphasis on BELT games.....and uses non-conf games as scrimmages pretty much.....they pick up a check > get the helll out....stumble upon a beatable team? >> (Mizzou in Pinkels LY).....sure they'll play hard
Based on (worthless history)......we can guess how their 1st 3 play out.....they (should) play either Nebraska or Miami fairly tough (I'm gonna guess Nebraska) .....and get killed by the other (Miami?).....then they will destroy APB
* they might get killed by both sure......doubtful IMO
SMU?.....should kill SFA and UNT.............AND should play TCU tough.............WHY?
* because SMU ......CLEARLY.....will not have the FULL FOCUS of TCU....off at Arkansas.....with at Okie ST next
$ plus....they won by 30 LY.....shouldn't take Ponies seriously.............??..a possible issue...SMU beat TCU up 1H LY literally.....Patterson was pissed.....accused SMU of playing derty........
IF.......ASU gets killed by BOTH Miami and Nebraska....I would lean to taking the points at SMU (maybe 7ish)......ESPECIALLY.....if SMU plays TCU tough........SMU gets killed at TCU?............lean Ponies
IF......ASU plays either tough.....kills APB.....Ponies off tough TCU loss.......PASS
* above / but Ponies killed by Frogs.....lean SMU
BOTTOM LINE?.......this game is CRITICAL for SMU.....THEY MUST get to 6 wins.....not so much for ASU.....their goal is a Sun Belt title
* just looking at the MATCH-UP alone.....easy to think ASU is equal....or better
While I'm ripping you......and many others................
* whatever PR numbers you're using......scrap 'em
AT 8'..........Vandy line going UP?..............impossible
