JB I am a USC fan...I just dont think that Ohio St will be in the ship this year...They do have a great team but I just dont see them beating USC at the Coliseum let alone they are in a tougher conference...I just believe that it will be USC in the ship...Its too early to make any assumption I just think that USC has the most athletic team on both sides of the field...They dont have just one RB not even two like Clemson they have 3 that could confuse and own any team they play any day...

Not from Cali just been a USC fan for about 7 years now...Has nothing to do with being from Cali, Im actually from Philly and I think your name doesnt really have to say anything about what team you root for...

I also hate UCLA basketball dont really have a bball team usually stay local in that field like Nova or St Joes...Just a USC football fan always have been...Its just a sport and I feel that you root for whatever team u like nothing wrong with that...If USC didnt have a team this year that I didnt think could go to the ship I would admit it...I think they are the real deal this year...It very well could be Ohio St who knows I just think its USC no matter what...Everyone has there own opinion...Best of luck to everyones team its gonna be a fun year...

Troy i am obviously not underrating osu's recruiting class as I said on paper they are as talented as anybody. Osu is sick loaded with talent and experience. USC is too.  People talk about Osu's D being the best but in two NC games which is basically the only two good teams they played in two years they gave up almost 40 a game.  I will take california talent over midwest talent everyday. most importantly its in coliseum.
 
Florida state has 3 games missing like 11 starters to begin season.  They will lose to wf without them so they looking at 2 and 1 to start.  They are decent.  They should be better on d than last year which was their worst defensive year. Of course their offense makes it impossible on defense.  FSU has 8 home games i think. I think they will maybe win 8 games.Nothing special about the noles.

The reason I said anything about your name or where you are from was in one of your post you talked about being a homer, which that term would lead me to believe you are from here.

I do find it funny though that you have become a USC fan about 7 years now, right about the time they started their dominance.

 

Anyways, biased aside, I cannot see how you think they are just going to wallop OSU. You say they are much more athletic, but you have to have some experience as well. New O-lineman, new QB, who is hurt, and should he play, had a real shitty game in his biggest start against oregon last year(granted it was at oregon), I don't know, I see way too much value so far getting points with OSU, especially 5 to 5.5.

Well, we'll see what happens, still along ways off

Why do you like nc state?  I like sc a lot this year and i think nc state is going to be very bad so i would never get involved in a situation like so.  That being said 25.5 is a huge number but if you are doing a 12 pt teaser or whatever it better look pretty good after adding 12 points. I think a better play would be south carolina because i don' t think anyway ncstate wins a night game on the road vs the ball coach who has better players

One of the main reasons this is my strongest pick is as I point out in my post above the Super Teaser rule provides for the house to win on tie point spread situations. That being said a 1/2 pt margin in no way lends itself to a tie situation.

Now on to the capping of this game.

Rivarly game. Always take a strong look at taking the dog in big rivalry games.

  • Under is 18-8-2 in NCST last 28 games on grass
  • SOCAR are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 vs. ACC
  • SC State are 4 and 0 against SOCAR

The under trend helps lend to the large point spread provided by the teaser.

Gamecocks being 3-7 ATS vs. ACC in last ten self explanatory as well at the last point.

What has me a little concerned is that since I have taken the early line NC State has been hit with a rash of injuries. Four starters look to be out but still feeling confident that a rivalry game can stay within 25 points.

thank you for the explanation herd.  I don't mess with teasers.  I prefer parlays because i have a problem and it gets me excited to have a chance more money more quickly.  I also look at trends very cautiously.  Some trends are extremely important and some are extremely unimportant. For example ncstate being 4 and 0 vs south carolina.   I don't know when those four games were played but if one of them was played in say 1990 then could someone please tell me how the fuck a game in 1990 is going to affect a game in 2008? Also i am sure their are countless trends that point to south carolina being a good pick so how do you decide then. The nc state under 18-8 on grass is a interesting trend. sc being 3 and 7 ats vs acc. That is only 2 games from being .500 and without seeing who and when those 10 games were played it is useless.  For example ncstate is one of the worst teams in the acc this year so to compare how sc fared against clemson who is a top acc and how they are going to do against a shit team is not important. More importantly like you said nc state has injuries although i believe eugene is their best rb anyway so baker won't be a big loss.

JB...USC's defense is just that good.  I dont have an explanation.  They will dominate OSU's offense.  Wells is good and will get his yardage but it wont be enough.  Just watch and see....Speed kills!!!

What does Oklahoma St. head coach Mike Gundy put in his hair?
 
How many times will Arizona head coach Mike Stoops say "ahh" in his first ten interviews?
 
Will Charlie Weiss beg the Patriots to take him back after another losing season?
 
Will Georgia use a "Know-Know,  not in my house" ad campaign for Moreno?
 
How thick are Joe Paterno's glasses?
 
Will Tressell ever admit to having some type of foreign object stuffed in his ass?
 
Does Urban (Meyer) drink bourbon? or Drive a subburban?
 
and finally will we ever see a playoff in our lifetime?

Don't forget people that osu lost to illinois last year and that is pathetic. 
 
Gundy doesn't wash his hair at all
 
don't know how many times stoopsy says ahh
 
weiss is a fat ass piece of shit that had the worst offense in the history of cfb last year what a joke fat charlie is. But he recruited last year and he got the best defensive coordinator so nd will be back to mediocre soon where they belong
 
know know they won't
 
idk
 
tressell is a loser
 
urban wears jean shorts
 
a playoff would be the greatest thing in the history of sports

You sir, are a huge ass... First, you come on here like you're hot shit when all you do is spout off things "as your own thoughts" when your "team reports" are simply ripped from various sports magazines or web pages.  Stuff anyone who wants to , can be found just looking things up.
 
Secondly, you do atleast add some of your idiot insight - which i guess is better than plagarizing.  "I just bet on USC everygame, no matter the spread" ... yes, thats the trick!  That must be the new, never-thought-of system that is guaranteed to win! If only people thought of this first, everyone would be millionaires, and the books would go broke!
 
Finally... You run off about OSU losing to Illinois, and "thats pathetic".  Good point, um, except for the fact that USC lost to Stanford, as 40+ favs.  If losing to a ranked Ill who had great run, what is losing to stanford?  You just throw out random facts to point to a conclusion you WANT to convince people of, instead of objectivly looking at things.
