1. VANDY/MSU: Vandy injury concerns on defense (dont have too much depth, this vandy team can move the ball but its not  good in role as favorite, is a better underdog. Injuries on defensiv and  side. Auburn up and down on MSU last week. MSU better offensively and they can't stop anyone.

2. Auburn -7/West Va. : Revenge spot, Auburn has looked very. But they haven’t done against good opponents. West Va can move the ball. West Va, had two botched punts. Everyone is on this Auburn team. Auburn is improved but West Va will hang in there. Take West Va.

3. Kentucy-13/ Louisville: Louisville Coach has a lot of pressure on them, some bonehead moves: Nothing important said. Blow out written all over this one. Hartline will git er done.

4. Arkansas/Georgia: Entire defense is back, got playmakers on offense decent QB. Third straight big game for Georgia, Georgia hasn’t looked very good. Take Arkansas.

5. So. Miss. -14/ Va: So. Miss is a very good team against a really bad Virginia team. Take So M lay the chalk.

6. NC/EC: EC stinks. But will NC cover, they are inept off. NC will win but cover ?? Maybe if i have to bet this one. EC QB is a turnover machine, he is god awful. They may not score 2U

7. Maryland/MTSU: Bad offense. MTSU is a good program, they beat Maryland last year. MTSU will win this game.

8. Washington/USC: Much improved team getting a lot points with USC. But WU defense isn’t good. Wash should cover.

9. BYU/FSU: This line is too low, should be two touches. FSU isn’t very good. Line stinks stay away.

10. Baylor/U CONN: Uconn QB out, Baylor is much improved, UCONN very good on defense, Baylor can move the ball, and if uconn doesnt get turnovers they wont cover

Therefore, Buffalo’s potential season-long question might be — along with the usual questions of T.O. co-existing with his quarterback — will Edwards prosper even with Owens when he still has very little time to throw?

And will Owens “accept” a team that can’t produce consistently on offense?

Oh, and mixed into all this uncertaintly, how will budding star Lee Evans accept being relegated to a secondary role?

To compound that, the team has other self-inflicted hurdles: their offensive coordinator Turk Schoenert was fired during the pre-season; Owens’ toe is nicked up; and, 1,000-yard running back Marshawn Lynch is suspended through the end of September.

So, while the Bills may prove decent as the season moves along, a prime-time game versus Tom Brady, Randy Moss, Wes Welker and a Patriot team juiced up after a playoff-less season is not the ideal opener.

Something that could help out the Bills would be the Patriots missing a key ingredient in their impressive aerial assault. Tom Brady may be back, but he could be without his most reliable possession receiver Wes Welker (knee probable) Obviously the loss of Welker would hurt the Patriots, but did I mention that Tom Brady is back?
