well.....hmmm..

lol

longhornhoosier:

I forgot to add the running back/wide receiver information. You are 100% correct. However, Pitt excels at stopping the run and the unproven QB cancels out the wide receivers. I wouldn't call FSU wide receivers elite...manuel made them look better than what they were in my opinion.

Overall, your score prediction could easily happen. I thought it was interesting that it hits 41 points and that I thought the line should be 40.5. Kinda scary! But pitt is the home team and both programs are rebuilding offense in their own way.

We will see what happens!

Being a pitt fan...Ive watched this team literally give me a bunch of broken promises. Yes of course a few awesome things have occurred like larry fitzgerald/tyler palko era...McCoy running down every defense he came across and who can forget Dan marino?

Those days are gone. We suffered though Wannyball. The "high octane" todd graham offense. And losing to a division 1-A school in the first time since the program began.

That brings us to tonights game. A completely unproven pitt offense with a better than average defense that returns the bulk of its players versus a basically unproven florida state offense with a better than average defense once again returning the bulk of its players.

The game...to put it bluntly...should be a first class grade A Cluster F**** on offense. Interceptions, fumbles, dropped passes, muffed punts, you name it. But both defense should play well. Maybe each sides lets up a big play at some point in the game...but nothing awful.

As far as taking a side in the game, betting on pitt games is something quite hard to do. They lost last year to Youngstown state...but a few games later they beat a ranked Virginia tech team. They are quite unpredictable. Pitt defense should hold strong...but the offense is a different story. Pitt's main strength for years is at the rb position. Their starting rb...issac Bennett..a guy who has barely played and was a total afterthought. They also have a senior QB brought in from Wisconsin (I think). Experienced yes...but so is a 80 year old hooker...neither one looks attractive.

Flordia state has a better offense, but with a freshmen qb that is completely unproven. Florida state has the better recruiting program, and experts have them ranked for a reason...even with their losses of players to graduation and the NFL. Their new qb may be good, but he is going against a better than average pitt defense and he will struggle.

In conclusion, picking a side is difficult due to the 10 point spot. Pitt is going to lose this game. Its going to happen. The real question is by how much. Honestly, I think it will be by 10 points. I do not see any real value in taking florida state with a rebuilt offense. But I don't see taking pitt either that has NO offense.

The under...looks fantastic. 49 points is a lot for a game like this. In my opinion, it should be 40.5.

I like under 24 first half, under 10 first quarter, and under 49 for the game.

As far as a side goes, No action.

If you must have action...I see florida st -6 first half as a reasonable value.

Final score florida st 20 pitt 10

Good luck all

Im not only sure about under 28.5....im HIV positive!!!

(kidding on std...not on the wager!)

i got 28.5 as well...

UNDER large. 2nd string for Oregon....and ark is terrible. I predict a Td from each team and maybe an arrant fg. wont even be 21 pts scored.

Oregon game UNDER 28.5 HUGE!!!!

What a joke line! No offense will come from oregon save a random td and ark will get lucky and do the same

oregon may not cover the spread now...

backup isnt exactly stellar and ark st. coach wants heavy air attack...

Under 2nd half...

Ark st. 2nd half...(hedge play)

Dont have lines yet...and it really doesnt matter. Probably 21.5 and plus 7 ark

 bad day for us all

Least the parlay is still alive and maybe arizona can pull it out!

Im honestly not comparing the downward spiral of this to years past.

Ive just noticed a change in pitching quality and hitting. Mccutchen has basically been non existant. the pirates ERA is steadily climbing upward. Hitting overall is going downward.

They will win a average of 1 out of 3 from this point onward. Please do not attempt to wager on them everyday like in the past....as all of ur profit made on them will vanish.

Been a Pirate fan for all my life. Ive watched them kick ass back in the 90's and crumble time and time again since.

This is the best that the pirates have been im sure the bulk of you have noticed.

But this is the end of the road for them. I have no doubt in my mind that they will finally break a .500 season. BUT! Gone are the days of the being near invincible at home. Gone is Andrew Mccutchen's MVP bid. Gone are the hopes of any playoff dreams.

As soon as the trading deadline passed...they have gone sour. This is NOT the same team. 33% of the starting roster is not the same as the winning team. Pirates SHOULD have left the team alone but they did not.

I highly recommend taking opposing teams in 3 days series bets from this point on. I highly recommend betting against the following pitchers: Corriea, Karstans, Wandy, Bedard.

Burnett and Mcdonald games are games they generally have won and will continue to win with.

Pirates will average 1 out of 3 from this point forward. You heard it here first, from a true pirate fan.

Instead of betting on a team and complaining...why dont u follow the trends on the totals?

WNBA games are almost always under 1st half...and over 2nd half.

If a game is incredibly low scoring first half....blast the over 2nd half and vice versa.

Literally made 8 units over the past 3 days messin around with this. Betting on a game...that i dont know a single player...team..anything.

Give it a try!

been considering it.

I hit them last night and i have balt to win the 3 day series. Didnt want to press my luck!

Pirates do godawful against interleague road games (check trends) but baltimore isnt exactly a superior team.

Both starting pitches are average at best. Both teams had stupid errors in their game. Seriously reminded me of high school baseball.

Cant really find a clear favorite in the game. Balt is only favored bc its a home game.

The only play that i love is the over 9.

Pirates Offense is horrible. But they have been scoring a decent amount of runs as of late and mccutchen CRUSHES Left handed pitching. Baltimore will also do their part and help carry this total over by inning 7.

I expect to see at least 2 homeruns tonight and the final to be 6 to 5. Just cant decide who is going to be the winner!

Wonder who i should pick to win? LOL

Go Baltimore

nothing is ever a give away. i would bet the total opposite.

If it looks like a bargain....its not.

Pull this from trends section.

Pirates are on a roll..but Balt has also been winning as well. Taken 2 out of 3 from their last 2 series.

Give me Baltimore -150!!

Give me Baltimore Best of 3 series as well! (no line yet from my book)

play it out.

thats 3 goals that wouldnt have happened without the boarding call. Kings will just sit back the rest of game and win 3 to 1.

4  to 1 if EN is scored. Either way you win or tie!
