Love this Line ...The Irish start the year with a Hard schedule ...vs USF----at Michigan------vs Michigan St.----at PITT-------also have Air Force on deck (must prepare in advance)... I think this Line will be somwhere between 2-7 when this matchup comes...
October 8th
Tennessee +3.5 vs Georgia
$165 to Win $150
Love this spot for the Vols, they come in off of playing Buffalo.... Meanwhile Georgia could have 3+ losses at this point (*Boise St,vs SC,at Ole Miss, vs Miss. St.)
October 13th(Thur)
USC-4 at CAL* (San Fran.)
$165 to Win $150
Another great spot ...The Bears HF edge will be small this year not playing in memorial Stadium.... Cal plays Oregon the previous week on Thursday .. USC comes in off the bye .....USC has beat Cal 7 in a row and the Last 3 by a Combined 95-17

Still Hungover from the Buffalo Bills HUGE WIN yesterday
Bills win looks bigger today than yesterday. Take care of business against the Bengals and they can roll into the bye with 1 or 0 losses.
I wonder what Clemson team will show up for VA Tech. Clemson is between 45 and 90 on the power ratings depending on if they show up. Va Tech is probably 80 to 82. The most consistent team in the ACC vs the least consistent

Great read every week. The line you got on Purdue was weak. That line is +12.5 now. The whole point of betting futures games is to get a steal of a line.
Love the thread and keep up the great work around here. Interested to see your two large bets this week.

DU, take a look at betting on the Rays tonight and tomorrow. Yanks have clicnched everything and are going to rest players and would rather have the Rays in the postseason than the Red Sox.
The Yanks can only face the Red Sox or the Rays in the second round of the playoffs. The Yankees would much rather play this series in Tampa where they will have more than half the fans. Not to mention the Yankees would love to deprive the Red Sox of additional revenue from playoff home games - that might be 10 mil the Red Sox could use to sign a pitcher.
I like the Rays -2.5 +180.
I see an 8-4 score

David Wilson (VA Tech RB) to Win the Heisman 100-1
$18 to Win $1,800
why not ... Like the 100-1 Odds on a RB who has 9 of the Top 10 back on the O-Line .... Hokies have a Really soft schedule...Wilson should rack up some Huge Numbers......Odds dropped to 50-1 on 5 Dimes before week 1 Kickoff.....Wilson ran for 10 Yards a Carry in week 1 going 16 for 160 with 3 TD's .. ...in week 2 Wilson went 26- for 132 with NO TD's...Week 3 21- for 88 1 TD...2 ctahces for 7 yds....Week 4 26 for 132 yards , 1 TD 2 catches for 11 yards
Tyler Wilson to Win the Heisman 75-1
$20 to Win $1500 LOSS
Decent value at Long odds for a QB who should be throwing alot of passes---..Week 4 22-35 185 yards 2 TD's and 1 INT vs Bama..Needed a Win ..... Wilson went 23-36 for 303 Yards 2 Td's 1 INT...Week 2In week 2 Tyler went 18-26 for 259 Yards with 1 TD and 1 INT, also ran 5 times for 44 yards and 1 TD---.... Wilson week 1 18-24 for 260 Yards and 2 TD's ....

Houston 16.5 *UTEP The Cougars are so Overrated it's not funny ..So Lucky to escape La Tech 2 weeks ago with a 1 Point Win... Not a fan of backing Road Chalk with a team that plays horrible Defense...Surrendered 34 Points to a 17 Year old QB.....Miners should use the Bulldogs Blue print of Heavy Blitzing .... Not betting on this unless I can get 20+ Points ..... Houston 76 UTEP 56 HF+4 Cougars -16 Prediction Houston -14

BYU 7 Utah St What happened to the Cougars ??? thought they would be much better than this ....Josh Heaps has looked like shit ... Cougars stink on 3rd down...

Should be 2-1 right now but a Muff Punt erased a 7 point lead last week vs Colorado St...Lost in double OT to Colorado St....RB Robert Turbin was stopped at the Goal Line on a 2 pt conversion.... Turbin did have 4 TD's and 124 yards ....Big Time Revenge game for BYU after losing to the Aggies last season ...
