UCLA/Colorado

Question

I&#x27;m looking at this and 13 seems like quite a bit of points. Does anyone else think that that looks like to many points?

I&#x27;m leaning under the 51 in the NFL Tonight. I&#x27;m not sure about the side either way so I am staying away from it. I&#x27;m looking for a college angle and I&#x27;m not sure this like will see 14.

A tad too many in my opinion. UCLA is horrible on offense. They can&#x27;t run and are at the bottom in rushing yards per game, have a back up QB playing and threw a ton against Utah. Colorado has a decent secondary. I will be playing UCLA tt u22.5 points.

ChickMagnut · Answer

I haven&#x27;t thought about the team total yet. And if you read my post in the other thread this is how I partially get some plays, people&#x27;s remarks inspire me to lean one way or another, just like here. I also make plays based on my own thoughts and research but it isnt in an organized fashion. What I have learned in the past 15 years is what works for me. I know longer watch ESPN non stop and remember everything. For me less knowledge is more at this point in my career. When I knew what high school every kid went to I was not as good of a handicapper. Therefore I get my plays from all over the place, right now you have me thinking about the Team Total and I may have a look at it. So I showed up loud. I got some attention and have since shut down some.

Colorado

WalterTibbs · Answer

Good stuff 799.  UCLA simply can&#x27;t run the ball.  Bruins leading rusher has 206 yards and they have failed to break 100 in their last three games...all losses.  Hard to see how a substitute  senior quarterback can carry the offense on his shoulders knowing that the Buffs have the No.14th ranked pass defense.UCLA has had 11 days to try to figure out how to attack a good Colorado defense.  No play for me but hope to watch the game on TV.

I have been winning on the down low. I used to post up my plays and what not and I would lose my azz off. It is pretty crazy curse you might say. But hey, the cubbies ended their curse and so shall I.

However, even if you cap it right with all the right angle, you can still lose but I'm not a bitter loser by any means. At least I have a reason for picking one sides and not the other.

Tonight, I play them buffalos. If you think the spread is too high, I think the spread is too low. We are talking about a ucla team who is 1-4 in their pac 12. A back up qb since their starting qb is hurt and out. A back up qb who throws a tons in his last game and still lost. Well throwing that many only shows you that ucla has no running game. Throw lots and all the time and here comes your int pick.

Colorado is first place in their pac 12. They just got back into the ranking field after they got out when they lost to usc. To make it more astonishing, buffalos were my bread and butter. They been bringing in the money for me and they are perfect against the spread this year.

They are perfect ATS in their conference play.

Ucla without their running game will have to throw a ton in this game here. If they are behind early in the game, they will have to throw more and more. Colorado will limit ucla from running to force them to throw. Well well, isn't colorado pass defense ranked 13th in the nation?

The recipe to win is all there for colorado. UCLA is a 1 dimensional team and if you stop that dimension, what else do ucla has left?

As long as colorado do not choke, they will win this one. Plus they are at home where they will be big and loud.

I got colorado 1H and colorado for game...

I'm also on ark state game under 45 (?) too.

ChickMagnut · Answer

Thanks for the info as I will probably lay off of this pick now. I didn&#x27;t realize that UCLA had done so poorly recently.

pinoy808 · Answer

Colorado is 4-0 ats at home this season

wmi799 · Answer

They are 8-0 ATS for the year

Stryc9Nine · Answer

Going over 58. Since UCLA can&#x27;t run, they&#x27;ll keep on passing even with the backup like the Utah game. Especially since they will be down from the get go imo...

Smokee · Answer

Atl -3 and over 51. Atl will get ahead early and force Winston to pass . Both defenses bad against pass. See this game 34-27

Win4Ever · Answer

UCLA has zero ability to run the football.  Near dead last in NCAA in rush yards per game.  Fafual slung the ball all over the yard vs Utah, granted Marcus Williams was out and they tossed the ball a record amount of time.  UCLA is a weird team though don&#x27;t have a great feel on them.  They seem to play really hard despite not having a great roster of talent. Mora is a good coach despite what public opinion may be.  They lost a lot of guys to NFL last year, anyone who expected this season to be good with a banged up Rosen was going to be disappointed.  I&#x27;d lean Colorado but don&#x27;t be shocked if UCLA back doors and puts up some garbage points.

COLORADO BUFFALOS -13Banged up uninspired Bruins at altitude of 5,430&#x27; against an inspired #16 CU team (first time ranked this year in a decade&#x2B;) on national tv?  Beach bois don&#x27;t cover

BratwurstPicks · Answer

People keep bringing up the "backup quarterback"....

I'm not sure he's not better than Rosen... Utah had about the same ranking on defense that Colorado has till they came across that "backup quarterback"... they got absolutely shredded by that "backup quarterback" to the tune of 464 5TD (he also threw 70 times and had 4 interceptions... I'm not proclaiming him Lord and savior of UCLA here)

My point is that backup QB has a name... Mike Fafaul... and he's probably better than your homer team's starter...

They're also fresh off a bye...

I think Colorado wins, UCLA backdoor covers... I'm not gonna fade Colo on this, I'm just not touching it... I looked at a lot of angles on this one and don't like the spread either way OR o/u.... BOL on whoever bets it, IMO there's easier lines out there...

ChickMagnut · Answer

That is what I thought but I got talked into a small play on Colorado. I bet Colorado early and often. I think I bet against them once to against Colorado State &#x2B;8. So I got talked into the other play and I am hoping Colorado beats them by 30.
