UAB/App St O48


App St played 1 bad game all season (lost to Ga So 24-21)....and it lands them in this crap game as opposed to a big bowl had they been undefeated.Only had 4 games under 34 points scored. Losing their coach, so theres that...but they should still him on offense. UAB has the 9th ranked defense, but that's simply a product of their competition. The only 2 teams on their schedule I would put in the same class as App St is Tennessee and FAU....and they lost those 2 games 79-13....I may add some App St -17ish, but not sure. Before I knew the spread or total, I made this 48-20.....

We're on the same page again train...  Appy/UAB over and laying the points too ... wish the coach stayed lol... whatever that QB is just so money in his decision making very surprised if UAB can keep things reasonable for a half.... CUSA creating a few good plays early.... Caught WKY before it went over -3... only CUSA team I can back.. can't even touch a doc holiday team getting 17.5..... well there might be a 3am drunk ML parlay with the herds name on it ... but that's it..lol. 

good luck. an_cheers

Good luck TRAIN - thanks for posting.  Tailed a few of your picks this year, and made a few bucks.  Appreciate you sharing the picks and info.  BOL.

Speaking of App St losing their coach...  what do you think about Drinkwitz to Mizzou??  Some of the more “entitled” Tiger fans I know seem to not like this hire and believe they should have gotten a more high profile coach.  Which is a little crazy imo.  I personally like it. Think it’s a good fit.

I like it. If they went for a "high profile" coach, it means he was basically not doing a good job at his current big name school and looking to move on. I mean, FAU gonna get Willie Taggert....

W Taggart cannot command a college football team. When he was here in Oregon he sent multiple people to the hospital from rhabdo. He loses the respect of his players early. I cannot wait to fade him and his team next year.

I agree with DTP, Drinkwitz great for Mizzou. They need offense. He’s an innovative offensive genius.

All he does is win. “What’d you got to lose”

p.s. I’m a Tiger alma mater.

Funny you should mention FAU.  Somebody said, why couldn’t we get Kiffen? And all I said was, be thankful he thought Oxford, MS was better than Columbia, MO  Lol

I was with you on this too. That 10min Army drive in the 1st killed us and them giving up in the 4th with no sense of urgency down 3 scores.

I hate losing more than I wanna win

You might want to consider looking at Cincinnati -7 verses Boston College. I think the Bearcats should be a strong play with AJ Dillon electing not to play.

Like the first bowl day picks - haven't looked too much beyond that - Question - Is the Utah State QB playing?? Saw it posted somewhere he was turning pro??? Maybe I think I saw that. Kent State coach - did one of the best jobs anywhere this year - dude is 6'7 - looks like a Mountain Man Basketball Coach - coaching football. Will always check in with your thoughts - one of the best!!!

Yep, hes playing. Not the best news for backing Kent St, but still like them here. Love is good, but he obviously has other things on his mind heading into this game....
