NCAAF WEEK #8:
YTD (2-1-0)
Units: (+0.95U)
Here we are over the midway point and the top teams are still undefeated. It’s about that time though for a major upset and another BCS dream to fall by the wayside. It may not happen this week but it’s going to happen sooner or later, always does.
This week I’m heading down to East Lansing for the big game. I had it all planned out, I checked the schedule in the off season, circled this game and bought my tickets. Coming into the season I couldn’t wait to pound MSU, rake in a nice profit and spend it all on strippers. Then one thing changed…Russell Wilson. Way to dash my dreams Wisconsin….Well I’m still going to the game and stubborn as I am I will probably still end up taking MSU and hoping for the best. How can I go to the game and not hope for the home team?!? I’m not saying its smart it just is what it is.

vs. ARKANSAS STATEThis game is tough to call, as I think this line is right where it should be. I went back and forth at least three or four times, as to me these are two very comparable teams. I did really want to go with the home team in a prime time situation, but one thing swayed my mind…TY Hilton. This guy is a game changer and you never know when he’s going to break one, and I’d rather be on his side than against him. A few other notes Carroll is 6/1 TD/INT ratio whereas Aplin is 6/8 and IMO FIU has played tougher competition and has already won on the road against LOU in a prime time spot, and beat UCF as well.
FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL +3 (1.1U to win 1.0U).
