Week 6 45-30 +$2338.30

I hate it when work gets in the way of football!

Rutgers -5.5 @ SMU $330 to win $300

Rutgers has surprised me this year. Nova rebounded from his slide late last season and is playing well. He showed some serious stones in his comeback 2 weeks ago vs Arkansas.

The Scarlet Knights are coming off a bye and have had ample time to prepare for a pizz poor SMU team. Methinks Mr Jones might wanna start making moving arrangements when this season ends. Hawaii has to be looking real good about now.            

Rutgers has a very balanced offense which is a huge plus in my book. 233 ypg passing and 176 ypg pounding the rock makes playing defense against them extremely tough. On D, the Knights have 11 sacks and 30 tackles for loss and oh by the way, Gilbert has been sacked 17 times. I gotta believe the Rutgers D is chomping at the bit to put that SMU QB on his azz. Gilbert has more picks than tds which is not a ringing endorsement for QB1. In fairness he has no run game and being one dimensional on offense is the kiss of death.

SMU has been outscored 131-53 in it's 3 losses. They are allowing 40 ppg. They are last in the country in getting turnovers. The ONLY positive they have going for them is they are at home and Rutgers has already proven to be a pretty good road team. I see no reason Rutgers does not win this one by dds.

Miami -5.5 vs Georgia Tech $330 to win $300

I believe this is the best game on the board, but after getting burned by the Navy QB injury when they were driving for a 14-3 lead has me gun shy about betting more than this amount.

The Canes have yet to trail in a game this season.   Let that fact sink in. Never mind not losing, they have not even been behind on the ole scoreboard. This Miami team has proven without a shadow of a doubt that they are for real. There are very few weaknesses on this team IF ANY. Morris is avg 262 a game throwing the ball completing 57% of his passes but due to that tremendous run game, he does not have to carry the load. What I really like about him is he spreads the ball around with 7 different players catching a td pass.

& that run game is all Duke Johnson. 6.3 ypc and this man puts the HOME in home run threat. He can take it to the house on any given carry from anywhere on the field. When you avg 45 ppg, it means your offense is near unstoppable. However, when you dig deep into this Miami team, you realize their offense is not the only thing to like about this team.

16 sacks and 5th in the nation in takeaways from a defense that is athletic enough to shut down that Tech option. VT (much to my dismay) proved that the Yellow Jacket offense will struggle against athletic defenses. GT had 129 yds rushing against VT and as we all saw on national tv, they could not handle the quickness of the VT D and Miami's D makes VT's D look like they play in slow motion.

As far as that GT offense goes, Vlad Lee is a pretender at QB. He was BRUTAL last time out and if that running game ain't working, Vlad cannot carry the load by himself. A 46% completion percentage is pathetic. There is no doubt in my mind that the Cane D will stuff Vlad and company all game long and if GT cannot control the clock, the Cane offense will absolutely destroy GT.

I had the exact same thought when I first saw the line.

Utah St -6.5 vs BYU $220 to win $200

After spending 40 minutes going over every aspect of this game, the ONLY criteria I could come up with for betting on Utah St is:

IN CHUCKIE I TRUST.

Both teams have chinks in the armor but the bottom line is the Aggies have the better QB and all things being equal, that's enough for me.

UCLA -5.5 @ Utah $180 to win $162

This wager is all about the Bruin offense. Would it surprise you if I stated UCLA is avg more ypg than those mighty Ducks? It tis true my friends. 614 ypg & only Baylor has racked up more. Mr Hundley is the most under rated QB on the planet. How about these numbers, a 66.3% completion percentage throwing for 848 yds with 8tds and only 3 picks. He is another one of those dual threat QBs that are becoming more prevalent in CFB as he has 157 yds running with 2 tds.

One question coming into this season was how the loss of Franklin would affect the ground Bruin ground game. Well Mr James has answered that question without any doubt. 424 yds in 3 games avg 141 pg. UCLA also has a dynamic duo at the WR position with Evans the home run threat and Fuller being the quintessential possession receiver.

The only reason I tempered my wager on this one is due to the fact I have not been able to get a good read on the Utes this season.

Perhaps you missed the Arkansas game? They were down 17 and he threw 2 4th quarter tds to pull out the win.

Also will be playing my customary wagers on Oregon and Baylor this week and will have write ups tomorrow along with wager amounts. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Big shout out to Stanford who once again bailed my sorry azz out and took a losing Saturday and turned it into my 5th straight week of profit. I made the wager 2 minutes before it went off the board so did not post the play here. I may have to break down and order a Stanford jersey........

Always a good way to start the week with a Thursday night win to bring the stats up to:

46-30 +$2500.30

Miami -3 vs GT $220 to win $200  1st Half

I see some serious value here as Miami usually gets out of the gate quickly while GT is a notoriously slow starter.

Thanks and same to you

Oregon -38 @ Colorado $110 to win $100

Baylor -27.5 vs West Virginia $110 to win $100

Let me start by saying BOTH of these spreads are jacked up out of proportion. The Ducks stud RB is hurt and the books obviously believe ULM and West Virginia are equal in talent cause it's the same spread.

However, I am a firm believer in riding a streak till it ends and both teams are capable of covering. A good portion of my profit so far is because these 2 teams have been     I am cutting down my wager amounts just in case this is the week where the streak ends..........
