09-08-18 | UTEP v. UNLV -23 | 24-52 | Win | 100 | 75 h 45 m | Show | |
I backed UNLV last week against USC catching a ton of points and they covered fairly easily. I will go back to them again here laying a massive number. I just think UTEP is just flat out awful. They could easily be one of the worst teams in the last 10 years. UNLV will score a bunch in a hurry. This is UTEP knows they are horrible and I expect them to be distracted by Vegas itself not focusing on the game. |

09-08-18 | Iowa State +4.5 v. Iowa | 3-13 | Loss | -110 | 56 h 9 m | Show | |
Iowa St here will be very motivated after what happened last year to them in their own stadium giving this game away. I like the group of players they have returning with some major athletes on offense which will give the inexperienced Iowa defense fits. I didn't come away sold on Iowa last week either but the betting public will be all over them as they did cover and will love to lay the short number at home. I think Iowa St wins outright |
|||||||
09-08-18 | Georgia v. South Carolina +10 | 41-17 | Loss | -106 | 70 h 37 m | Show | |
Now that this game has hit the crucial number of 10 I will gladly back the Gamecocks. Jake Bentley is a stud QB and let's not forget this team finished with 9 wins last year and two of their 4 losses were too playoff teams last season. Georgia has so much to replace on defense I just dont trust them laying a big number here. This is a rivalry game and I think the Gamecocks believe they belong and I see them responding here |
|||||||
09-08-18 | Ball State +34.5 v. Notre Dame | 16-24 | Win | 100 | 70 h 30 m | Show | |
Here is another game where we all know where the betting public will be. I leaned Notre Dame last week and upset obviously I didn't pull the trigger, but what is the Irish motivation here after having a huge win vs Michigan? Ball St returns 13 starters and I think they will be a play on team for a while as the markets have them priced wrong. Notre Dame I see just trying to control the game on the ground run clock get the win and move on. Therefore, I see Ball St being able to put up at least 14 points and that alone will give them an easy cover |
|||||||
09-08-18 | Rutgers +35 v. Ohio State | 3-52 | Loss | -107 | 70 h 50 m | Show | |
I'm going to take the number here with Rutgers. I think the betting public will be in love with Ohio St here since not only did they cover but they scored a ton of points in 77 to be exact. The betting public loves teams that score we all know that. I think this Rutgers team is vastly improved this season especially on defense with 8 starters back. Texas St isn't great I get that, but they held them to under 200 total yards. Ohio St had a lot of motivation last week with everything that has gone on during the off season. The players were eager to get out there and make a statement. Now that is game over I dont think they will be that motivated for this game. |
|||||||
09-08-18 | Arkansas State +37 v. Alabama | 7-57 | Loss | -110 | 55 h 34 m | Show | |
Let's go with Arkansas St here catching a ton of points. This team is a very good team and one of the best outside the power 5 conference. I also think the motivation is gone here for Bama as they rolled Louisville last week. Bama will likely play the back ups earlier here. I also think Arkansas St can score twice which means Bama needs another huge offensive output, but like I mentioned I doubt the motivation will be there to do so |
|||||||
09-01-18 | Marshall v. Miami-OH +2.5 | 35-28 | Loss | -100 | 74 h 52 m | Show | |
I really like Miami Oh here in this matchup. I actually think they should be favored. Miami Oh returns 16 starters from last year. I actually think this team played a ton better than their 5-7 record. Gus Ragland is a very good QB probably the second best in the MAC. They also reutrn arguably the best WR in the MAC. There is also a huge revenge factor here as Miami outplayed Marshall everywhere but the scoreboard last year. I think Marshall will have a good team again this year but they have to replace a QB that entered the draft early in Litton. Throw that in as well and now playing a true road game out of the gate, I think it will be a challenge for Marshall. Wrong team favored lets take Miami Oh |
|||||||
09-01-18 | UNLV +26.5 v. USC | 21-43 | Win | 100 | 43 h 1 m | Show | |
There is no doubt which team here has the most talent in USC. They are having to replace an All American highly thought after Sam Darnold. USC will be starting a highly touted freshman and while all signs point to him being a stud you just never know. Also a couple key injuries on the OL looks like some starters out. Also missing a couple from the secondary. More importantly USC has a huge look ahead next week with Stanford on deck. UNLV returns 14 starters from a team that was 5-7 and should have had 6 and with a little luck 7 wins. True sophomore QB Armani Rogers returns this year and he was the Mountain West freshman of the year last year. UNLV has improved a lot since Sanchez has taken over. They aren't world beaters but they can score a couple times and keep it within this big number. |
|||||||
09-01-18 | North Carolina v. California -7 | Top | 17-24 | Push | 0 | 71 h 4 m | Show |
For those who do follow me on twitter, I have talked about this Cal team for the season and I think they are a play on. Cal returns 10 starters on offense and 7 on defense. This team improved a ton on the 1st season head coach in Justin Wilcox. They finished 5-7 last year but had a loss in OT and back to back 3 point losses both on the road to Stanford and UCLA. I think we see them take a huge leap forward and I wouldn't be surprised if they won 8 games. North Carolina could end up being the worst team in the Coastal Division of the ACC. This team won just 3 games last year and only have 12 starters back. 2 of their wins were against non Division 1 teams. I see them struggling against a vastly improved team in Cal |
|||||||
09-01-18 | Northern Illinois +10.5 v. Iowa | 7-33 | Loss | -110 | 42 h 21 m | Show | |
The more I look into this game I have to take Northern Illinois. Iowa lost All-Americans on defense and those guys just dont walk through the door every day at Iowa. None of their LB's have started a game and they are facing a experienced offense with 8 starters back. Iowa will also be without 2 starting offensive linemen which won't bold well going against Sutton Smith who was an All-American last year at DE and should have a hay day. Northern Illinois went on the road last year and won @ Nebraska so they wont be afraid here. |
|||||||
09-01-18 | Ole Miss v. Texas Tech -2 | 47-27 | Loss | -115 | 19 h 40 m | Show | |
To me this game here is all about perception. I think Ole Miss is getting credit because of their name and also that they are in the SEC. The thing here is though Ole Miss had the worst offense in the SEC last year and quite frankly I don't see it improving much. Yes, I know Texas Tech doesn't have a great one either but they also face a tougher style to defend. Tech has a better defense and I think Kingsbury knows this the year to put up or shut up. He needs this win over an SEC school |
|||||||
08-31-18 | Colorado State v. Colorado -7.5 | 13-45 | Win | 100 | 47 h 35 m | Show | |
Well this is an obvious choice here but Colorado St was just awful losing to Hawaii at home. Hawaii wasn't expected to do anything this season and they dominated the game. If Hawaii can expose the Rams on defense like that Colorado shouldn't have a problem themselves. I also don't like this spot here for Colorado St having to play such a fast turn around rivalry after being deflated. Colorado is a little raw on offense but they do have junior college transfers in and I do like their QB Montez who returns. This is a rivalry game so Colorado won't be letting up here. |
|||||||
08-31-18 | Utah State +24 v. Michigan State | 31-38 | Win | 100 | 52 h 55 m | Show | |
I do like this Michigan St team this year I will be clear about that. I just don't think they should be laying this much to a experienced team like Utah St who returns 9 on offense and 7 on defense. I really Jordan Love their QB who started the final 6 games of the regular season as a true freshman. Michigan St is going to be a lot of people's sleepers picks to make the Big Ten title game which I understand. While their defense is solid they did only average ppg on offense last year. I see Utah St scoring at least twice here which would put Sparty scoring 40 or more to cover |
|||||||
08-30-18 | Northwestern v. Purdue -1 | 31-27 | Loss | -105 | 29 h 13 m | Show | |
Well, the first play of the season will be on Purdue. This team had new life built in them last season as first year head coach Jeff Brohm did just a terrific job winning 7 games and also a bowl game. This Purdue team last year lost the opener to Louisville by 7, @ Wisconsin by 8 @ Rutgers by 2 and Nebraska by 1. They could have easily on 9 games. Purdue's biggest question will be on defense but it's not like Northwestern is a juggernaut on offense. Also I like that Thorson is playing now coming off an ACL tear which is keeping this line low. Northwestern won 10 games last year but I think a lot were a fluke. They won 3 straight games all in OT. What are the odds of that? Let's take Purdue to get the season going! |
|||||||
01-08-18 | Alabama -3.5 v. Georgia | 26-23 | Loss | -108 | 9 h 27 m | Show | |
Really like Alabama here tonight. I just think the match up is bad for Georgia. The Bulldogs won't be able to run the ball like they did against a bad Oklahoma defense. Bama will shut that down in a hurry and make the freshman QB Fromm beat them with his arm. I also dont think that is possible and if Bama get's up early I think playing catch up will be extremely tough for them. |
|||||||
01-01-18 | Georgia v. Oklahoma +3 | 54-48 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 47 m | Show | |
We have two different styles here, but this just feels like Mayfield and Oklahoma just seem to be on a mission. Georgia will be tested in a way they haven't been this year especially on defense. I know people think that win over Auburn was huge, but this Oklahoma team has a lot better weapons and it all starts at QB. I will take the points and believe Oklahoma wins outright |
|||||||
12-30-17 | Washington v. Penn State -1.5 | 28-35 | Win | 100 | 5 h 46 m | Show | |
Like Penn St here today. So far in the bowl season we have seen the Big Ten just dominate and I think that will be the case here again. Penn St is better on both sides of the ball here. The Penn st offense is one that I could make a case for Washington hasn't seen the likes of so far. |
|||||||
12-28-17 | Stanford v. TCU -3 | 37-39 | Loss | -115 | 12 h 57 m | Show | |
I'm not going to fault TCU much for losing two of their 3 games this season against Oklahoma who is the hottest team in all of college football right now. Stanford here is very one dimensional and TCU has the defense to shut down the running game. |
|||||||
12-16-17 | Oregon -7 v. Boise State | Top | 28-38 | Loss | -110 | 54 h 40 m | Show |
This Oregon team would have been a legit top 20 team this year if their QB Herbert was healthy for a full season. He came and to no surprise they score 48 and 69 to finish off the season. This team is just different when he is running the show. Boise played one of the easiest schedules you could have asked for this season. This team simply isn't built for a big come from behind. |
|||||||
12-16-17 | North Texas v. Troy -6.5 | 30-50 | Win | 100 | 51 h 58 m | Show | |
North Texas is a very overrated 9 win team here. Just look at their defensive stats giving up 5.2 yards per rush and 8.4 yards per pass. Those are very bad numbers given that Troy averages nearly 5 yards per rush. Also people are forgetting at this is the same Troy team that beat LSU during the season. |
|||||||
12-02-17 | Ohio State v. Wisconsin +6 | 27-21 | Push | 0 | 13 h 0 m | Show | |
All Wisconsin does is win Football games. Yea, they don’t have the flashy type players but they do all the little things correct and that is why they are successfull. Ohio St offense has been rolling since their loss @ Iowa. I dont think Barrett who isn’t 100% can get the explosive plays against Wisconsin and their #1 ranked defens. |
|||||||
12-02-17 | Georgia +3 v. Auburn | Top | 28-7 | Win | 100 | 9 h 48 m | Show |
Love Georgia here getting revenge from earlier this season. Auburn has now beat both Georgia and Bama and are now getting prices like that. Both those games were at home though Now Georgia is catching 3 because of that when they were 2.5 point favorites the first time around. The line has been adjusted by 9-10 points and that is way too many. Georgia wins this game out right on a neutral field |
|||||||
12-02-17 | TCU +7.5 v. Oklahoma | 17-41 | Loss | -110 | 5 h 21 m | Show | |
Another revenge game here. Yes, I know the Sooners have been rolling but I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see TCU win this game outright. They have a legit defense and the Sooners defense is one I don’t trust at all. Mayfield is getting a lot hype right now also because he will Win the Heisman and I think most people will lay this number no problem based on the first go around but I think it’s much closer |
|||||||
12-01-17 | Stanford v. USC -4 | 28-31 | Loss | -110 | 79 h 5 m | Show | |
11-25-17 | Notre Dame -2 v. Stanford | 20-38 | Loss | -110 | 46 h 35 m | Show | |
I'm just not buying the fact that Stanford is a superior team. They are getting a lot of respect because they have beat Washington at home. I still think in the back of Notre Dame mind that if things fall right and they have a great performance they still have an outside shot of getting in. |
|||||||
11-25-17 | Arizona v. Arizona State +2.5 | 30-42 | Win | 100 | 43 h 16 m | Show | |
I think the wrong team is favored here in this game as Arizona has really struggled on the road this season. They are getting a lot of credit because they have Tate at QB. I also think ASU will want revenge from last season. The Sun Devils defense is much improved this season. I like ASU to win outright |
|||||||
11-25-17 | Wisconsin v. Minnesota +17.5 | 31-0 | Loss | -110 | 54 h 58 m | Show | |
For the average college football fan I'm not sure people realize how big of rivalry this actually is. They brought Fleck in here for this stage. While he doesn't have what he needs for this year he will be throwing everything at this Badgers team to get a win. Wisconsin is a great team but they aren't flashy. With the styles of these two teams I think covering this much is a tough task I will gladly take the points |
|||||||
11-25-17 | Alabama -4.5 v. Auburn | 14-26 | Loss | -110 | 54 h 46 m | Show | |
The SEC conference is down big time this year. So we have IMO an overrated Aubrun team who played the toughest team in Georgia at home and blew them out. So I think people realize that and we are seeing the line being adjusted in favor of Auburn. Well, for me you have to prove a lot more than that as Bama has owned this conference forever. Last year this line was 20.5 so your telling me in a years time that Bama got worse and Auburn got this much better? I'm not buying it. Let's lay the points with Bama here |
|||||||
11-25-17 | Ohio State -11.5 v. Michigan | 31-20 | Loss | -110 | 50 h 27 m | Show | |
Since Ohio St went on the road a few weeks and were embarrassed at Iowa we have seen a whole different team. It's almost like that loss really woke them up. Right now they are playing like a top 4 team in the country scoring 100 points combined their last 2 games. I was against Michigan last week at Wisconsin in a easy winner. This team just doesn't pass the eye test because their offense is so bad. They will be without their starting QB here as well. Every time Michigan has had to play a better team they loss plain and simple. Another key factor is that the Buckeyes have styles points to play for here because they can still make the football playoffs. Urban Meyer will have no problem running up the score on Michigan |
|||||||
11-24-17 | California v. UCLA -7 | Top | 27-30 | Loss | -115 | 77 h 30 m | Show |
I love the Bruins here showing a lot of heart last week actually out playing their rival in USC last week. Both teams in fact are coming off their rivals with Cal coming off Stanford. UCLA still has plenty of motivation trying to make a bowl game and I think they will respond having a new coach on the sidelines. UCLA is a perfect 5-0 at home and believe they can handle Cal who has been pretty poor on the road. |
|||||||
11-24-17 | Virginia Tech v. Virginia +7.5 | 10-0 | Loss | -120 | 31 h 24 m | Show | |
Lets take Virginia here as I think we are getting good value with a team trending in the right direction. I had this team last week at Miami and they were up two touchdowns in the 2nd half but kinda fell apart. I dont think with what we have seen from Va Tech here recently they should be this big of favorite. They should have lost last week vs Pitt who we know is a bad team. They have only covered the number twice in the last 7 games and one of those was even lucky. |
|||||||
11-24-17 | South Florida v. Central Florida -11 | 42-49 | Loss | -105 | 70 h 15 m | Show | |
Frost has these guys on a mission here to finish the season perfect. This is a big time rivalry and UCF will want revenge. Both teams have great offenses there is no hiding that, but the motivation is the angle I am playing. UCF will not be stopped here and I think South Florida is being a little over valued because they have survived some very close games as being big favorites which suggests they might be getting lucky |
|||||||
11-18-17 | UCLA v. USC -15 | 23-28 | Loss | -110 | 23 h 42 m | Show | |
I know this is a big number here in a rivalry game but USC is just by far the better team. Since USC got destroyed at Notre Dame all they have done is cover every game. This team hasn't gave up and they still have possible PAC 12 title in their grasps. The key here is simple and that is UCLA won't be able to stop USC on offense at all. We have seen Rosen struggle when he gets behind also because he starts to take more risks and leads to turnovers. |
|||||||
11-18-17 | Arizona University v. Oregon -3 | 28-48 | Win | 100 | 22 h 39 m | Show | |
I really think Oregon is going to have a ton of motivation here with their QB returning. I don't think the betting public will want anything to do with them. They also will want to make a bowl game so a win here would make that possible. Oregon has played 3 of their last 4 games on road and to no surprise with a backup QB then they lost them all. Him being back I think rallies the team in a big win |
|||||||
11-18-17 | Arizona State -7 v. Oregon State | 40-24 | Win | 100 | 18 h 49 m | Show | |
Call me a sucker here for this one but Arizona St has way more talent and this Oregon St team that has 1 win on the season and quite frankly don't care about this game. They care about next week having their rival Oregon on deck. Their defense is just flat out awful as they give up 5.4 yards per run and 6.5 per pass attempt. |
|||||||
11-18-17 | Virginia +19.5 v. Miami-FL | 28-44 | Win | 100 | 15 h 55 m | Show | |
Miami is coming off their biggest win in how many years last week just throttling Notre Dame and not to mention the week before was another big win over Virginia Tech. It's pretty safe to say that Miami wno't have the same intensity as they have the last two weeks. I also think Miami has a way of playing down to teams as we saw them barely escape with a win over a terrible UNC team just a few weeks ago. Virginia isn't world beaters but I think they can move the ball and keep it closer hre |
|||||||
11-18-17 | Michigan v. Wisconsin -7.5 | Top | 10-24 | Win | 100 | 74 h 10 m | Show |
Really like the Badgers here against Michigan. Wisconsin simply doesn't get much love because of their style of play. All they have done so far is just dominate teams and it's because of their #1 overall ranked defense. Michigan does have a good defense as well but the two quality teams they have played in Michigan St and Penn St both were losses. I do love the spot for Wisconsin as they will want to earn style points with the committee and Michigan as the biggest look ahead you could ask for with Ohio St on deck |
|||||||
11-11-17 | TCU +7 v. Oklahoma | 20-38 | Loss | -115 | 94 h 18 m | Show | |
I was against Oklahoma in a loss last week against their rival Oklahoma St. There were two key things that happened I felt that really shifted momentum. Early in the game OU fumbled was return for TD but over ruled as an incomplete pass instead. Late in the game 1st and goal Oklahoma St had a chance to take the lead and Rudolph throws and INT which ultimately did them in. I'm really not sold at all on this OU defense I think they are frauds giving up 6 yards per play compare that to the best defense in the Big 12 in TCU who gives up just 4.9. I love how TCU responded last week after losing to Iowa St in a nice bounce back game they took care of business against Texas. 7 points is a ton for a team with no defense and given the magnitude of this game. |
|||||||
11-11-17 | Iowa v. Wisconsin -11.5 | 14-38 | Win | 100 | 55 h 36 m | Show | |
Lines that really make you scratch your head huh? So we have Iowa coming off their win of the season on a national televised game blowing out Ohio St. I'm not sold on Ohio St this year and think they are overrated so I'm not gonna over react and give Iowa all the credit here. Iowa decided to open up the playbook for once and it clearly caught the Buckeyes off guard. Let's remind you also Ohio St was coming off a huge comeback win over Penn St the week prior. Wisconsin is a team that doens't get any love at all because they aren't flashy they have no stand out NFL players. All they do is simply play every week and win. They are catching Iowa at the right now and the Hawkeyes are no longer a surprise team. Iowa on the road this season is 0-3 ATS. |
|||||||
11-11-17 | Virginia Tech v. Georgia Tech +3 | 22-28 | Win | 100 | 52 h 43 m | Show | |
All the love is gone for Georgia Tech now after their hot start to covering 6 starting. The Yellow Jackets are a perfect 4-0 ATS at home and are catching Virginia Tech at the right time. I think after last week the Virginia Tech loss will serve as hangover as they went to Miami and just got beat down. Tech still has plenty of motivation here IMO wanting to playing for a bowl game. Having the hangover and playing an option type of team isn't the ideal situation you want so I think Tech wins this game SU. |
|||||||
11-11-17 | Florida v. South Carolina -7 | 20-28 | Win | 100 | 86 h 38 m | Show | |
The Gators are done for the year. If you didn't see last weeks results @ Missouri you should look that up for yourself. People may say well South Carolina has nothing to play for here. If you remember Will Muschamp use to coach @ Florida so you can guarantee he would love to pour it on the scoreboard here. This South Carolina team I had last week in a easy cover and a good effort against Georgia. The Gators also have a laundry list of injuries. Their season is over take the Gamecocks. |
|||||||
11-11-17 | Rutgers +31 v. Penn State | 6-35 | Win | 100 | 86 h 17 m | Show | |
Talk about a very frustrating last two weeks for Penn St. They had a lead for almost the whole game @ Ohio St to only lose in the final seconds and then travel to Michigan St last week and suffer another devastating loss by 3 to Sparty. I just think given the situation and results of the last two games that it's going to be very hard for Penn St to be excited in this game as their post season playoff and Big Ten conference hopes are over. This will also be an early kick here which I think benefits Rutgers as I could see Penn St just going through the motions. The thing here also is that Rutgers has been undervalued here is that Rutgers is 7-2 ATS this year and have covered 4 straight. In fact they have won 3 of their 4 last games outright. This team is playing with a ton of confidence and have over achieved but the markets haven't reacted to them. |
|||||||
11-11-17 | NC State v. Boston College +3 | 17-14 | Push | 0 | 52 h 38 m | Show | |
How much is left in the tank here for NC St? They are coming off back to back huge efforts both in losing outcomes against Notre Dame and Clemson. Now their season in their eyes is over and I don't think the motivation will be there. This young Boston College team is having the season of their lives and would love nothing more to beat another ranked team this season. Also a win here would make them bowl eligible as well. I also really like the fact that they are coming off a bye week. |
|||||||
11-11-17 | Oklahoma State v. Iowa State +7 | Top | 49-42 | Push | 0 | 98 h 37 m | Show |
I'm going to roll with the Cyclones here. I faded them last week at West Virginia coming off their huge upset win over TCU and that worked out. I will back them as I think Oklahoma St will be deflated here coming off an emotional loss against their rival Oklahoma. Iowa St by far has the better defense here and with them catching 7 here suggest that Oklahoma St is equal to TCU but that clearly isn't the case. I think people fall in love with high octane offenses. I also think the fact that Iowa St is playing the underdog role this season and still have a legit shot at the Big 12 title game gives them all the motivation. |
|||||||
11-09-17 | North Carolina v. Pittsburgh -9 | 34-31 | Loss | -110 | 45 h 4 m | Show | |
So this North Carolina team poured their hearts out prior to their bye week against Miami and came up short. For a team that has 1 win on the season you think these kids really have much motivation after their possible upset of the year was so close? I don't think so. Pit is also coming off their bye week here and I think they will be motivated here trying to make a bowl game sitting at 4 wins right now. I know Pitt doesn't have the greatest defense but it's not like UNC brings a power house offense to the mix. I like where Pitt is trending here winning their last two games outright as dogs. UNC is being out gained by over 100 yards per game. Pitt should have no problem here |
|||||||
11-08-17 | Toledo v. Ohio +4 | 10-38 | Win | 100 | 11 h 55 m | Show | |
I like Ohio here tonight catching points as this is the biggest game in the MAC for the year. Both teams are in first place and this will probably be the preview for the MAC Championship game. Ohio has out performed expectations in the ATS column going 7-2 ATS and 4-1 ATS at home. While I know Toledo is a strong program there is no arguing that I just think they have a had a lot easier road so far in MAC play. Also, since they have covered 4 straight the line is being favored toward them. I see a really close battle here and think this game should be a PK |
|||||||
11-04-17 | Colorado v. Arizona State -3 | Top | 30-41 | Win | 100 | 72 h 32 m | Show |
Was really surprised by this number as I think Arizona St bounces back here in a big way after playing terrible against USC last week. Colorado really doesn't pose a threat here and are getting a lot of respect after blowing out Cal last week who is the 2nd worse team in the PAC 12. This Colorado team destroyed ASU last year and I really like the revenge angle here as well. The Buffs only two conference wins have came against the 2 worst teams in the conference this number shouldn't be an issue for the Sun Devils |
|||||||
11-04-17 | Virginia Tech -2.5 v. Miami-FL | 10-28 | Loss | -110 | 71 h 44 m | Show | |
11-04-17 | Colorado State -3 v. Wyoming | 13-16 | Loss | -115 | 33 h 11 m | Show | |
I just think the Rams here are the much better team in this game. They aren't getting much respect for several reason, but the fact they are favored and Wyoming has covered 5 straight games tells you something. Colorado St has had a rough schedule stretch here playing 3 option teams in a row. Wyoming doesn't have much of an offense here and the Rams really can move the ball. So I think once the Rams get up it's going to be very difficult for them to play catch up |

11-04-17 | Oklahoma v. Oklahoma State -3 | Top | 62-52 | Loss | -110 | 100 h 36 m | Show |
Love Oklahoma St here in this rivalry match up against the Sooners. Oklahoma is getting a lot of respect here in my opinion since they did go on the road and win @ Ohio St, but that was early in the year. Oklahoma defense is very very shaky giving up 8.0 yards per attempt while Oklahoma St averages over 10.0 yards per pass attempt. I know this series has been OU recently I also think that is played into the line. Oklahoma St also has the better defense that ranks 35th and OU pass defense ranks 87th. The Cowboys get revenge here |
|||||||
11-04-17 | South Carolina +24.5 v. Georgia | 10-24 | Win | 100 | 72 h 42 m | Show | |
Have no choice but to take the Gamecocks here getting all these points. Georgia is now ranked #1 in the football college playoff so they don't need to impress the committee anymore here and just need to win go forward. I don't think South Carolina is getting enough credit on the defensive side of the ball here holding teams to 5.3 yards per play. They are very good against the run as well just giving up 3.8 yards per run. Georgia also has their biggest game of the season to date on deck next week @ Auburn. |

11-04-17 | Iowa State v. West Virginia -2.5 | 16-20 | Win | 100 | 72 h 32 m | Show | |
The love for Iowa St is just way too much for me right now. While yes, this is a great story and Campbell deserves a ton of credit and probably just sealed the deal on coach of the year last week. Iowa St is in the toughest spot of the year right now after a huge upset over TCU and now traveling to a tough place in Morgantown and the will be more than motivated here. It's also worth noting that West Virginia played Oklahoma St pretty tough last week but the 5 turnovers simply did them in. They are catching Iowa St at the right time |
|||||||
11-04-17 | Stanford v. Washington State -2.5 | 21-24 | Win | 100 | 71 h 29 m | Show | |
This Washington St team has been one you look to back at home and fade on the road. So they have laid two eggs on the road first @ Cal, but during that game they had 7 turnovers. Last week against Arizona who has been a red hot team here lately they committed 4 turnovers but still managed to rack up over 600 yards of offense. Stanford is 2-2 on the road but easily could be 0-4. They barely beat Utah by 3 and last week without Love they should have lost to the worst team in the Pac 12 in Oregon St beating them by 1. This is also senior day for Washington St so they want to go out in style. Also Stanford has a huge look ahead game with Washington coming to town |
|||||||
11-02-17 | Northern Illinois v. Toledo -8.5 | 17-27 | Win | 100 | 53 h 26 m | Show | |
I know Norther Illinois is a respectable team, but Toledo this year is just in a class by themselves in the MAC Conference. They are averaging 40.5 points per game and a massive 7.1 yards per attempt. Nothern Illinois has a decent defense but they haven't faced a team like they will here tonight. The Huskies have been very lucky this season winning by 3 last week in OT, beating Buffalo by 1, and winning at Nebraska by 4 because they had two pick sixes in that game. I think Toledo puts the hammer down tonight |
|||||||
10-28-17 | Texas Tech +20 v. Oklahoma | 27-49 | Loss | -110 | 95 h 34 m | Show | |
I think this is great value here with Texas Tech who may have been caught looking ahead last week toward this game. They lost to to Iowa St who has been the surprise team in the country so far. Mind you this Oklahoma team also lost to them on their home field as well. Oklahoma just isn't the same team from earlier in the season. They have been just escaping with some narrow victories by beating Baylor who is terrible by just 8, Texas by 5 and Kansas St last week in the final seconds by 7. It's also worth noting that they ad Bedlam on deck here with Oklahoma St as that could decide the title. They just wanna win this game not reason to blow Tech out |
|||||||
10-28-17 | Tennessee v. Kentucky -5.5 | Top | 26-29 | Loss | -110 | 124 h 16 m | Show |
I know the line has gone against us here, but I cant believe Tennessee is taking any kind of money. After last week against Bama I think all their motivation is gone here. They didn't score an offensive touchdown at all. We all know Butch Jones will be fired at the end of the season if not before. Kentucky will have the motivation here as they can become bowl eligible here with a win and I think this is a spot to back them. |
|||||||
10-28-17 | Nebraska v. Purdue -5 | Top | 25-24 | Loss | -110 | 78 h 29 m | Show |
Just love Purude here this week as they come into this game dropping back to back road games. Now, last week they lost to Rutgers but that was very misleading as Purdue out gained them by over 200 yards. I think a large part of last week was because they were looking ahead to this game vs Nebraska. The Cornhuskers are done for period. This team couldnt manage to get up for home games vs Wisconsin and Ohio St, I don't care if they are off their bye they have no interest here. Purdue is eager here to make a bowl game and they need this one in order to do so. |
|||||||
10-28-17 | TCU -6 v. Iowa State | 7-14 | Loss | -115 | 120 h 26 m | Show | |
A lot of Iowa St love going on right now. Yes, the story is a great one and you have to give coach Matt Campbell all the credit in the world. I just think he is running into the best team in the conference and they are pricing Iowa St as possibly the 2nd best team. TCU won't be over looking this match up now as they know what's at stake. |
|||||||
10-28-17 | UCLA v. Washington -17 | 23-44 | Win | 100 | 117 h 34 m | Show | |
Yes, this may seem like to big number to lay because it is UCLA with the pro QB, but this team can't play a lick of defense. Don't let last weeks results fool ya as they beat up on a injured Oregon team. UCLA has yet to win a true road game and now have their toughest task by far. I think the bye week did a lot of good for the Huskies who was be more than motivated after dropping their recent game @ Arizona St. Arizona St held them to just 7 points which was crazy because they hadn't scored under 30 all games prior. They will bounce back here as they face a terrible and I mean terrible Bruin defense. |
|||||||
10-28-17 | NC State +7.5 v. Notre Dame | 14-35 | Loss | -122 | 91 h 23 m | Show | |
I did have Notre Dame last week against USC in a easy win. I will go against them here this week as this is a extremely tough spot for them. First, the line is inflated big time here as NC St is better than USC in my opinion and we are catching 7.5. The thing here is that the Wolfpack have a lot better defense than what people realize. The other main key is that the Wolfpack are coming off a bye here and I always think that is key especially catching a team coming off a national victory like Notre Dame last week |
|||||||
10-28-17 | Penn State v. Ohio State -6 | 38-39 | Loss | -110 | 117 h 30 m | Show | |
Yes, we know Penn St has been a covering machine all season long and are coming off a very impressive win over Michigan. I'm not very high on this Michigan team this year so when you look at their schedule it has been pretty easy to say the least. Ohio St is in the perfect situation here as they are coming off a bye with plenty of time to prepare. Meyer off a bye almost never losses a game. Granted Ohio St hasn't been playing the greatest competition either, but their offense is starting to come a live at the right time. This will by far be the biggest challenge for Penn St especially on defense which I still have questions about. With all time to prepare and the Buckeyes season is on the line I look for them to cover this one |
|||||||
10-27-17 | Florida State -3 v. Boston College | 3-35 | Loss | -125 | 56 h 50 m | Show | |
I would sure like to think that is Florida St team and Jimbo have a lot more fight in them and won't let the players quit on this season. Remember just a few weeks ago this Florida St team took the undefeated Miami Hurricanes down to the wire. I just think the talent level is to far apart. While Boston College is doing a great job I need more points to back them here |
|||||||
10-21-17 | USC v. Notre Dame -3.5 | 14-49 | Win | 100 | 106 h 21 m | Show | |
Give me Notre Dame as I think they are one of the best teams in the country. I'm not sure why USC is still taking money here. Notre Dame is also coming off their bye week here and their QB Wimbush is probable to go. USC was lucky to escape with a victory last week vs Utah as nearly two touchdown favorites. The Irish only loss this season was to the undefeated Georgia Bulldogs by just 1 point. |
|||||||
10-21-17 | LSU v. Ole Miss +7.5 | 40-24 | Loss | -130 | 35 h 40 m | Show | |
I did have LSU last week in a crazy come back against Auburn and they ended up winning the game outright after being down 20-0. This isn't the role here where LSU will be successful coming off that big win and let's not over look the fact they have Alabama on deck. Ole Miss and their QB Patterson is starting to rise here and he will be a factor. A large part of Ole Miss early struggles were because they played 3 consecutive road games against Alabama, Auburn, and Cal. |
|||||||
10-21-17 | Indiana v. Michigan State -7 | Top | 9-17 | Win | 100 | 102 h 20 m | Show |
Really like Michigan St here as I don't think Vegas is pricing them right. I was lucky last week to cover with Minnesota as Sparty went to their house and dominated. So it was a little misleading there and Indiana was misleading as well as they came back to take it to OT vs Michigan. were 7 point dogs to them on their home field and now 7 on the road to a team that won @ Michgian? Vegas is still pricing Michigan better than Michigan St. I think Indiana is deflated here as last week and Michigan St controls this game start to finish |
|||||||
10-21-17 | Iowa v. Northwestern +2 | 10-17 | Win | 100 | 28 h 30 m | Show | |
I will take Northwestern here as I think they should be favored here in this game. They have the better defense and offense. Iowa has been a part of some very misleading games like the Penn St game where they were out gained by over 300 yards and it came down to the last play of the game. Illinois is by far the worst team in the Big 10 and Iowa need a late 89 pick six in the 3rd to stretch this lead out or else Illinois takes the lead there. NW got their offense going last week racking up over 530 yards @ Maryland. To much of this line is being played into Iowa coming off their bye week |
|||||||
10-21-17 | Iowa State v. Texas Tech -7 | 31-13 | Loss | -110 | 27 h 5 m | Show | |
Let's go with Texas Tech here as I think they respond in a big way here. Last week they should have won the game @ West Virginia up 35-17 as a touchdown dog and couldn't get the cover. Now Iowa St is getting a lot of respect because they went into Norman as 31 point underdogs an won SU, then followed up by pounding Kansas last week. Texas Tech has big time revenge in mind also after getting embarrassed in Ames last year. |
|||||||
10-14-17 | Washington v. Arizona State +17.5 | 7-13 | Win | 100 | 61 h 23 m | Show | |
I really like the value here we are getting with Arizona St given this spot for them. When you look back at the Sun Devils their losses don't actually look that bad as they had a close loss to SDSU and Texas Tech both teams have proven them selves this year. The Sun Devils beat Oregon SU as a 15 point underdog and followed that up by covering at Stanford losing by 10 as 17 point dogs. Now, they are coming off a bye and have highly rated Washington coming to town which they will be ready for |
|||||||
10-14-17 | Michigan State v. Minnesota +4.5 | 30-27 | Win | 100 | 59 h 60 m | Show | |
The limelight is now off PJ Fleck for a while as they have dropped two straight games to Purdue and Maryalnd. I think Fleck will have his guys ready here as they are catching Michigan St at the right time with them coming off their huge win over rival Michigan. The main reason for Sparty winning last week is pretty simple. It was because Michigan had 5 turnovers to Sparty's 0. Sparty does have some injuries here at RB and might start their 3rd stringer and this is important because of ground and pound style they play. |
|||||||
10-14-17 | Auburn v. LSU +7.5 | 23-27 | Win | 100 | 54 h 17 m | Show | |
This will be the divide of the Pros vs Joes. The betting public will be all over Auburn here as they continue to climb in the rankings. I was all over LSU early last week grabbing them at +3 at Florida and they went off as two point favorites. Auburn is just getting a lot of respect because of their close loss @ Clemson, but that was early in the season and the game was a little misleading as Auburn should have lost by a lot more considering they barely had above 100 total yards. This is a huge game here for LSU with two road games looming here and one of those is Bama. With Auburn coming off back to back blowouts over both at home I think they will be challenged big time here as LSU does have a defense. |
|||||||
10-14-17 | South Carolina v. Tennessee -2.5 | Top | 15-9 | Loss | -110 | 88 h 18 m | Show |
Really love Tennessee here this week coming off their bye week and this is gut check time. They were just embarrassed at home last time out vs Georgia. Now, Jones job is on the line he knows it and I think we see a big response here I just think this South Carolina team is very overrated especially now coming off a blowout win over Arkansas who appears to have thrown it in for the season. That was a misleading score as South Carolina scored 21 from their defense. This is a South Carolina team that trailed 16-0 at home vs La Tech and came back to win by 1. I realize many have gave up on Tennessee as they haven't looked great so far. However, I do love this spot/situation for them here and let's not forget they did beat Georgia Tech and that is their only loss of the season. With Alabama on deck Jones can't afford a loss here |
|||||||
10-13-17 | Washington State v. California +16 | 3-37 | Win | 100 | 12 h 21 m | Show | |
Well the number has simply gone to high to pass up here on Cal. Wazzu is getting to much love for me after they are coming off wins over USC and a injured Oregon team. Remind you last week Wazzu were dogs at Oregon and now based on results they jump to over 2 touch down favorites. Cal was 17 point dog at Oregon two weeks ago and mind you that was a healthy Oregon team then. So on a neutral field Wazzu should only be favored by 14 two weeks ago. Now 16 on the road it's definitely inflated. This Cal team gave USC all they wanted as 17 point dogs only losing by 10 and had 6 turnovers in that game. Give me Cal to keep it close tonight |
|||||||
10-07-17 | Stanford v. Utah +6 | 23-20 | Win | 100 | 82 h 25 m | Show | |
From what we have seen from Stanford so far this season they simply don't deserve to be this big of favorites here on the road. They are getting way to much love because of Love teir RB who is putting together a Heisman run. What people are missing is that this Utah team has an outstanding defense and can keep him in check. Utah is a perfect 4-0 ATS this season and oddsmakers haven't caught on. This is a statement game for them here. I also think the fact that Stanford has Oregon on deck is a look ahead here. |
|||||||
10-07-17 | Kansas State v. Texas -3.5 | 34-40 | Win | 100 | 79 h 26 m | Show | |
Really like the Longhorns here in a night game as I believe Herman will have this team ready knowing if they want to make a bowl game. K St has only played two hard teams and that was Vandy which they lost 14-7 and Baylor last week who has been a major disappointment and they beat them by 13. They were actually outgained in that game by Baylor. Texas is a team that is vastly improving since game 1 vs Maryland. I'm not counting that game as a huge loss because this Maryland team has been a very nice surprise so far even with all the injuries. They had a great game @ USC in which they should have won SU as 16.5 point underdogs. They were in a tough situation @ Iowa St on a Thursday night game and held them to 7 points for a team that was scoring over 38 a game. What Texas does best is stop the run what K St does best is run the ball. You definitely have to give the edge here to Texas to stop them here since it is at home. Everyone loves Snyder as an underdog but I'm not buying it |
|||||||
10-07-17 | LSU +3.5 v. Florida | 17-16 | Win | 100 | 26 h 39 m | Show | |
No one wants any part of LSU right now after losing as 21 point favorites to Troy last week. I think this is now a perfect bounce back spot here for them against Florida who I haven't been impressed with this year. I just think this Florida team is very overrated in the fact they barely beat a very bad Tennessee team and should have lost @ Kentucky. They will also be without their best player and play maker in Callaway as he is suspended. LSU will return their best player here in Guice which will give them a huge upgrade here on the offensive side of the ball. |
|||||||
10-07-17 | Duke v. Virginia -2.5 | 21-28 | Win | 100 | 25 h 18 m | Show | |
I really like this spot here for Virginia coming off a bye week after a huge 20 point road win as a 14 point underdog @ Boise St. I think the momentum here really carries over with that extra time off. Duke is a team I think they have over achieved so far. They are coming off a very hard fought game vs Miami and now have a huge look ahead with Florida St on deck. The spot/ situation here screams to take Virginia. Let's lay the short price here |
|||||||
10-07-17 | Georgia v. Vanderbilt +18 | 45-14 | Loss | -105 | 25 h 15 m | Show | |
I really like this Georgia team a lot going forward as they are clearly the 2nd best team in the SEC and its not even close. However now we are seeing a huge over reaction in the line here based on Georgia's results. Let's just look at last week's results when Georgia went into Tennessee and destroyed them, but remind you they were only favored by 7.5 in that game. Now, they have another road game here against a better team and are favored by 18? This is a huge overreaction here to me. Vandy is limited on offense I realize, but this is simply way to many points |
|||||||
10-05-17 | Louisville v. NC State +4.5 | Top | 25-39 | Win | 100 | 31 h 43 m | Show |
Really like the Wolfpack here to make a statement on the big stage tonight. Yes, this team has been a disappointing in terms of covering games, but they shouldn't be a dog here as this should be a PK. I really question how good or bad this Louisville team is as they have played a bunch of cup cakes so far outside of Clemson. The only other power 5 team was Purdue and they struggled against them. NC ST has a very good defense here and I think they can keep Jackson in check. I expect this line to drop throughout the day here take all the points you can grab now |
|||||||
09-30-17 | South Carolina v. Texas A&M -8 | Top | 17-24 | Loss | -110 | 70 h 38 m | Show |
I think we are getting a huge discount here on the Aggies that have just found their stride after beating Arkansas in OT last week. I'm not high on this South Carolina team at all as they were extremely lucky last to beat Louisiana Tech as they are down 13-0 going into the 4th. They have been extremely fortunate beating NC St earlier this season despite being out gained by 258 yards. They were also out gained by a terrible Missouri team. They then lost to Kentucky at home. Now they have lost their best play maker in Deebo Samuel. Texas Am is a team yes, that hasn't looked very impressive but still have won 3 straight and could easily be 4-0 if it wasn't for that crazy come back from UCLA in week 1. They have now found a new QB in Fond who threw for over 200 and ran for over 100 last week vs Arkansas. |
|||||||
09-30-17 | Mississippi State +10 v. Auburn | 10-49 | Loss | -115 | 74 h 6 m | Show | |
Will take the 10 points here with Miss St as they were just destroyed in a tough spot @ Georgia, following a huge blowout win over LSU as 8.5 point dogs. I won't take anything away from them for losing last week as Georgia to me is the 2nd best team in the SEC. Now Auburn is a team that I feel is extremely overrated. Yes they blew out Missouri last weekend and that team is in shambles. They are still getting credit for playing Clemson tough even though they barely managed above 100 total yards for the game. This is a perfect bounce back as I feel Miss St does have a very solid defense and are also in a perfect bounce back spot. |
|||||||
09-30-17 | Akron -2.5 v. Bowling Green | 34-23 | Win | 100 | 68 h 32 m | Show | |
I like Akron here to get the job done against what looks like the worst team in the MAC right now in Bowling Green. BG in 4 games this season have not only been out gained every game but only one of those were under 200 yards. They have just been dominated in every aspect. Akron just has the better play makers here granted they are only 1-4 but they have played a lot tougher competition so far. They were shut out against Penn St which is nothing to be ashamed off, Iowa St is much improved this season. Akron last week were 17 point underdogs at Troy and nearly did pull the upset. |
|||||||
09-30-17 | Iowa v. Michigan State -3.5 | Top | 10-17 | Win | 100 | 124 h 55 m | Show |
I'm gonna go ahead and grab this one early do my write up for it. There isn't a more deflating loss than what the Hawkeyes suffered over the weekend. They had Penn St on the ropes as it came down to the final play of the game and Penn St needed a TD. This Penn St team is for real. They actually dominated the game out gaining Iowa by over 300 total yards it was a very misleading final score. Sparty was on the hand of a bad beat here and misleading they actually out gained Notre Dame by 149 yards and lost by 10. Figure that one out. The main difference here was because of the turnovers as Sparty had 3 and ND had 0. I think Michigan St bounces back here as the Hawkeyes struggle to recover from that game |
|||||||
09-30-17 | Maryland v. Minnesota -13 | 31-24 | Loss | -110 | 60 h 29 m | Show | |
Not many probably watched the Maryland game last week but they are now down to their 3rd string QB this week. So now we clearly aren't getting the same Maryland team that won at Texas in week 1. While the Gophers aren't exactly the flashy team I think coach Fleck has done wonders making this team believe. They are also coming off their bye week so they won't be over looking this game for their big ten opener. I realize the Gophers haven't played a tough schedule but the defense has showed up so far only allowing 24 points on the season |
|||||||
09-29-17 | Miami-FL -7 v. Duke | 31-6 | Win | 100 | 81 h 4 m | Show | |
It's hard to figure out this Duke team this year thats for sure. While I know the week day games home underdog are popular plays I just think they haven't seen a team like this. The Hurricanes continue to go under the radar IMO. They are a fresh after 2 weeks off because of the Hurricane that happened. I know this isn't a great spot because now they do have Florida St on deck. I think Richt will have his team read here and he knows this is a nice statement go on National TV on a Friday night. |
|||||||
09-28-17 | Texas v. Iowa State +6.5 | 17-7 | Loss | -120 | 23 h 23 m | Show | |
Really like the Cyclones here and yes both teams coming off a bye week. Thursday night in Ames is a scary time and this team is vastly improved. I'm not sold on Texas right now either as most are going to remember their recent game @USC in which they should have won. With that being said most have now forgot how bad they were against Maryland in week 1 as 18 point favorites. I'm not sold on this Texas defense at all and really believe Iowa St will be able to move the ball here. They have a more balanced attack than the past here. Texas will have their hands full here |
|||||||
09-23-17 | UCLA v. Stanford -7.5 | Top | 34-58 | Win | 100 | 102 h 51 m | Show |
Love Stanford here in this spot. So they are playing their first home game of the season against a rival in UCLA and coming off back to back losses. I dont believe motivation will be a problem here. Stanford losing to SDSU last week isn't a big deal to me as simply turnovers cost them and they are also in a sandwich spot coming off of USC and having UCLA on deck here. UCLA barely beat Texas Am week 1 and it looks like they are a bottom 5 team in the SEC. Their defense ranks 123rd in the country and there are major problems here. They give up 6.2 yards per play while Stanford average 7.5 yards per run. I think the Bruins defense get worn out as Stanford can have some big long drives by controlling the ball. |
|||||||
09-23-17 | Mississippi State v. Georgia -4.5 | Top | 3-31 | Win | 100 | 99 h 46 m | Show |
I had Miss St last week as my game of the week and that cashed easily with a huge win over LSU. Now they seem to be getting a lot of credit and I consider Georgia the 2nd best team in the SEC. Georgia backup Jake Fromm went into a very tough place one of the hardest in college football in Notre Dame and came away with the win. Maybe Miss St is the real deal and I do like Fitzgerald their QB, but I will need to see how they handle a big win before I can back them again in another tough SEC game. |
|||||||
09-23-17 | Syracuse +21.5 v. LSU | 26-35 | Win | 100 | 70 h 52 m | Show | |
This is one of those game that will go under the radar here. I think Cuse will be able to move the ball as LSU is dealing with some injuries right now. Also take into fact that LSU got blown out last weekend at Miss St which I had as my top play. I believe this is a flat spot here. Cus offense can generate points. I'm not sure where LSU heads are right now. |
|||||||
09-23-17 | Michigan -9.5 v. Purdue | 28-10 | Win | 100 | 129 h 50 m | Show | |
If this game was played 2 weeks ago Michigan would be favored by 20+ points. Now that Purdue has had a little bit of success everyone seems to be jumping on board but I'm not buying into it quite yet. The fact that Michigan didnt cover the last two weeks after beating Florida shouldn't be surprise. They were in a major let down spot vs Cincinnati after that game and had to play an option team in Air Force that are hard to adjust to. I think now that Purdue is on fire they will have Michigan's eye. The talent level is greater on Michigan and yes they still have Harbaugh as their coach. |
|||||||
09-23-17 | Rutgers v. Nebraska -11 | 17-27 | Loss | -110 | 67 h 39 m | Show | |
I really think is the perfect spot to back Nebraska here as people are selling them. While, this team may not be very good you have to remember they are playing Rutgers. Last week they had two early pick sixes which dug them a hole they couldn't get out of. I think this week calls for desperate measures here and we will see the Cornhuskers respond. |
|||||||
09-16-17 | Cincinnati v. Miami-OH -5 | 21-17 | Loss | -115 | 99 h 4 m | Show | |
I think this is a game here that will be under the radar. This Miami Oh team I believe can play for the MAC title this year by winning the eastern side of their conference. This team is 0-2 ATS and should have won and covered easily in week 1 against Marshall as it ended as a very misleading final score. I'm not very high at all on the Cincy team and since they did cover the number against Michigan I think we are getting the benefit of the doubt here. They were never in that game being outgained by 214 yards. Miami only lost by 7 last year at Cincy being 14.5 points dogs. Miami is way more of a veteran group here and I believe they respond in a big way |
|||||||
09-16-17 | Clemson v. Louisville +3.5 | 47-21 | Loss | -110 | 71 h 59 m | Show | |
Huge rivalry game here at night with the home team wanting revenge. Everyone seems to be jumping on the Clemson wagon again wand while I do like this team I think it's a big overreaction from last week as I'm not buying into Auburn at all. If you remember lat year in Death Valley Louisville should have won that game and I believe they do get the job tonight as they have the biggest difference maker in the game and that is Lamar Jackson. |

This is one of those weird games that you see a ranked team on the road as a short favorite, but do they really deserve to be favored here? Both teams have played pretty easy opponents, but if I had to be picky Vandy has played the hardest in Mid Tenn St. This Vandy team returned a lot of key starters from last year. I'm not that high on Snyder and his Wildcats even though he will have them ready. I think there are some issues on defense here giving up 4.1 yards per play given their weak competition. This is also a night game here for Vandy and I think they will respond. |

I will back the Bulldogs here as I feel this line is just a huge over reaction based on team name alone in LSU. They have played absolutely no one in their first two game and neither has Miss St but that shouldn't make LSU a TD road favorite in a very hostile environment here. The Bulldogs granted haven't played anyone extremely tough but scoring 57 and 49 is taking care of business. Both defenses have been rock solid so far and I just really like what I have seen from Nick Fitzgerald at QB. I expect this line to drop throughout the week |

09-16-17 | Tulane +34.5 v. Oklahoma | 14-56 | Loss | -110 | 69 h 54 m | Show | |
Oklahoma couldn't be in a worse spot here coming off the biggest win of the year so far in football upsetting Ohio St at the Horseshoe. Now they have to play a gritty Tulane team that run the option. While Oklahoma is obviously the more talented team, playing against the Option is never easy and often not prepared much for. The OU lineman will be chopped all day and quite frankly I see the coaches playing a lot of their backups here so no one gets hurt. There is also zero, I mean zero motivation here for the Sooners to blow them out and not to mention they start conference next week with Baylor and will be looking forward to that |

09-16-17 | Purdue v. Missouri UNDER 78 | Top | 35-3 | Win | 100 | 41 h 23 m | Show |
This total has simply been bet up way to high here for this match up. Yes both of these teams like to score but with what has gone on with Missouri this week firing their defensive coordinator and I think they sure things up. Purdue IMO right now is over achieving big time and their first true road test will be eye opening. Both of these teams like to get up and down the field but also this is just being over hyped as most think they don't have great defenses. |

09-16-17 | Iowa State -9.5 v. Akron | 41-14 | Win | 100 | 92 h 30 m | Show | |
The Cyclones were my free pick last week at +3 vs their rival the Iowa Hawkeyes. They ended up losing a heart breaker in OT after blowing lead late in that game. Most will think they could come out flat, but I think this team is very much improved under the 2nd year coach in Campbell. Akron is a average team in the MAC with no home field advantage at all. Iowa St will be a surprise team come conference play and they simply aren't getting enough credit here. |
