Not a good Matchup for the Rockets,...

Still Toledo is  5-1 hosting BCS foes since 2001...

The Over killed me the last time these teams met in 2008 (AZ 41-16)... I believe the total was 58.5

Arizona might be looking ahead to the Huge Matchup vs the Citadel ...

I've got the opening line at Vandy (+2) at home vs NW. I'll be shocked if Vandy is laying points to NW. Lost all 4 home games by double digits lastyear, and return 1 guy on an offensive line that already sucks. Hopefully, the overzealous SEC fans will push Vandy into the favorite roll in this game.

If it opens with NW as the dog, I'm on it with ya.

SEC Fan/bettor would/might push that line to Vandy -1 or more if they somehow opened as the dog..... Not sure the Doores will win a game other than vs EMU...

Let's Hope for the Points with the Wildcats, maybe a +120 ML

If season started today.. Games I'd be on..

Mid Tenn +3 vs. Minny- Gophers take step back this year-  Dasher

UNC +5.5 vs. LSU- Heels D is unreal- O will do just enough.. not sold on Jefferson yet.. can see 17-13 someone..

UCONN +7 vs. UM- Far from sold on UM D and Shoelace being able to throw it more than 10 yards.. UCONN solid on both sides of ball- huge coaching + as well

Northwestern +2.5 vs Vandy- another outright win- Kafka was good- but other kid, forgot his name, was solid LY.. Vandy blows

Washington -1 vs. BYU- Huskies should get to 8 wins- BYU lost everyone on O..

Boise +2.5 vs VT- said it before- give Peterson 6 months to prepare and they will deliver..

CANNOT wait for the season..

Double, I'm starting to like your line on Michigan. The more I look at it, I think we see UM come out and put it on Uconn. UConn played 4 good offenses lastyear surrendering 221,234,231, and 123 yards rushing.

That is not to say Michigan has a good offense, but I think they will be somewhat better.

On the other hand, Michigan 's defense sucked LY and Uconn may run for 250 on them.

If I could get this at 4 or less, I think I would be all over U of M.

You could be right Brother ...

Guessing this line will be much higher than I think .... Maybe UK is laying around 7+...if that's the case I might stay away ....

a Must Win for Wildcats bowl chances

I see in the G.O.Y. lines bookie posted that Michigan is laying only 3.... wish I could get in on that Number....

Might not be a easy trip to the Big House for the Huskies....

But Like you Said Michigan's D sucked last year ....

With your lines, I think I would probably be on the following:

-Marshall +27.5 (hoping to see something closer to +29, but who knows. Would likely buy the .5 to get to 28.)
-Pittsburgh +2.5 (would like to get 3.5.  Pitt wins this one SU.)
-San Jose State +38.5 (with Penn State on deck, this one just screams 35-3 to me.)
-TCU -5 (TCU didn't lose too much. Defense will still be really good, and most of the offense is back.)
-Boise State +2.5 (Like TCU, one of the "little" guys making a big name for themselves. Boise is my preseason #2.)

Without much research done yet, that's what I like.

I only bet one or two dogs a week in CFB most of the time. Right now I would be on Northern Illinois +11.5 and I wouldn't think twice about it. The Huskies have a solid squad and while ISU is improving, they are not the type of team that should be laying 11.5 to a decent team. If your line is close I will most likely be on the Huskies.

Too Bad for ME,

You Can't Win Money Guessing Lines  

I have Loved guessing the Oddsmakers actual Lines in CFB and the NFL... Since I was 8 Years Old ...(26+ Years ago)...

Had a Degenerate Mind Back then.

My Goal has always been to be atleast 2.5 points  Within the Spread...(while trying to get the LINE SPOT on)

For week 1 (as of  Right Now) I afraid that I am WAY OFF on atleast 27%+ of the Lines (9.5+ Points)...

Marshall with 28+ would be nice... Not a Big Bet or anything but  a Stardard wager

Leaning On Pitt, Wondering about the Homefield Advantage for the Utes ... anything Over a FG +3.5 or more would be worth it ... ML +135 or more ???

With you as well on TCU... Worried They will be Laying over a TD /7.5+ vs the Beavers... Riley has alot of Players coming Back, But NEW QB could be in Big trouble vs Horned Frogs...

On the fence with Boise St vs Virginia Tech ... ... I would not want to be coming from Behind with Tyrod... Beamer vs Peterson should  be a AWESOME Chess Match...The Oddmakers will not Give Broncos Bettors much ML Value

Would Like SJ st usually in this spot BUT THEY will be going through Major Changes...The Spartans Look shit On paper giving up 300+ Rushing Yards 4 Times Last year..Bama might play Crappy and Score 45+

Nice to be Talkiug Football again Brother

I'm gonna put ND as an 11 point fave to open. I adjust these as we get closer. Alot will depend on Crist's knee. Giving Kelly players like ND has is gonna be fun to watch. If crist can make the throws (and kelly's offense features alot of easy throws), the ND recievers will have a field day with Purdue's secondary that returns o starters.

All that being said, it scares me to put money on a team with a  new coach.

I Need 2+ Games just to watch Notre Dame before I back them or fade tem... unless I feel the Line Is Off///

The schedule is much Harder than Most people think
