*All You Losers Can Start Winning Now... Follow Me!

Keep posting and screw the haters Jersey! I love the ULM pick and like your insight into the game. Keep posting and let's kill the books

like both plays..

Play#3 -  UCF -1

I'm not sure why Penn State was favored from the onset of this line being released as it has since moved in the opposite direction... rightfully so! UCF is clearly the better team, with more talented players. This Penn State team is very mediocre, they don't recruit like they used to, so the talent level just ain't there anymore. This year they'll have to adjust to a new system under new HC James Franklin as well. Penn State has a nice Sophomore QB in Hackenberg who saw a lot of action last year, and played extremely well, considering the lack of talent around him, but he cant win games on his own. This year the talent level drops again on offense, as they lose their only consistent WR in Allen Robinson, and the offense line has major holes to fill. This is an offensive line that returns 1 starter, as they lost their Center, Right Guard, Left Guard, and all 3 Right Tackles from last year, not to mention OG Dieffenbach tore his ACL in the Spring and is out for the year! Good luck against a talented defense that returns 9 starters from last year, including a BIG/Athletic defensive line, the best secondary in the AAC, and the best LB in the AAC in Plummer. Remember this is a team last year that beat Penn State on the road, nearly beat #12-South Carolina, knocked off #8-Louiville on the road, and whipped #6-Baylor in the Fiesta Bowl.They do however have to replace Bortles and Johnson on offense, but I like the talent they have at WR (all top 3 return) and QB Justin Holeman will surprise a lot of you this year. Most importantly, in a game with such a tight line, having the superior special teams is always a HUGE bonus, which UCF clearly has in their return game with Rannell Hall and their excellent KR Shawn Moffitt. Knights should win this game.    

Trends to consider: N/A

Nothing in the negative or positive for either team. We also must consider the fact that this game will be held at a neutral site overseas in Dublin, Ireland. So not having to play in front of 106,000 hostile fans at Beaver stadium again in a revenge game is definitely another advantage for UCF.

Illinois -10 vs. y' town... Play of week 1

Play#4 - NC State -21

The Wolfpack enter year 2 under Doeren's system after a disappointing (yet expected) underwhelming year in 2013. This year they return 14 starters and will be led under center by dual threat QB Jacoby Brissett with a much improved offensive line. On the other side of the ball the defense looks much better upfront, with added experience in the back seven as well. The last three home openers for NC State were all blowouts with an average margin of 30ppg as Carter-Finley tends to be a tough place to play. And after beating Florida last year, no way NC State take this team lightly. Georgia Southern enters its 1st year in FBS play, under 1st year new HC Willie Fritz. This is a run 1st team, with a run 1st QB THAT REALLY cant throw the ball all that well if you watched any of their games last year. They may throw a bit more under Fritz, but this offense wont be that difficult to contain or figure out. This is a team that lost 38-14 against a BAD 4 win team in Appalachian State last year. I don't see them scoring much at all here, while I see the Pack running up the score here with a feel good win at home. Don't let the Florida shocker fool you... NC State 41-10

Trends to consider:

NC State is 21-5 in home openers, 28-15 against non-conference opponents since 2004, and the team historically has been like day and night at home v. on the road.

Georgia Southern N/A, 1st year in FBS play.

U r right on with bowling green.

Play#5 - Michigan -34

I absolutely LOVE the fact that this entire board is on Appalachian State (for whatever reason?) even though the team sucked last year and they haven't gotten any better. While Michigan has quietly been recruiting some of the best players in the nation (ie Jabrill Peppers) and is easily the most improved team in the BIG 10. The defense is stacked and the offense should be better once again this year, and keep an eye on Peppers in the special teams game... I guarantee this kid scores at least once on a return and breaks some monster plays giving the Wolverines excellent field position! As much as I hate Michigan personally, I really like this years team and how they're being overlooked this year. No one is talking about the Wolverines, everyone is on the Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan State, Ohio State, and even Nebraska person train. Michigan goes for 56 or more in this one, while Appalachian State gets a consolation TD and/or maybe a FG in garbage time. BTW remember 2007 when Michigan got embarrassed in their season opener against this same school, think they aren't being reminded of that? Think again. BLOWOUT!!!

Trends to consider:

Nothing really stands out for or against either side here.

glad to see you liked my NC State pick as well as my predicted score, what a coincidence, eh...

I hope that I am correct...

Something's telling me to give this guy a chance..

They will see my friend. My winning percentage will do all the talking for me. All while these idiots continue to play 15-20 plays on any given Saturday... and yet, half the people posting and lurking on this forum tail them? Lol

Each & Every Week I Will Post (1) Total and (1) Moneyline Dog to Consider. These are not plays, just leans.
