2-5 Last week: -7.85 Units
19-9-3 YTD: +20.35 Units
There was only 1 game I was really pissed about last week, Bama Under. That was a 5 unit swing on 2 TD's that were scored cause Ark couldn't tackle on TO and ST. Oh well, knew a bad week was coming witht he super hot start. Going with a different approach this week. Liked everything the same, and since I had a flat week, everything is 2 Units.
117- RU +105
I thought last week was the letdown vs. a powerfull Offense. I am not scared 1 bit of Cuse and what they put on the field. Payback for last yr.
146- Col -3 -115
Cougars on the road? Buffs I though were going to give more @ The Shoe. Home coking good enough for the FG win
144- Boise -27
Just use last yr's game as the reason. The only thing that stops the scoring is time. Wolfpack are hoping for this day to end already.
151- Tex/Iowa ST Under 50
I do love the pts in this one, however Cyclones down 4-6, then give up a late TD to lose by 11-13 isn't crazy. The one thing I don't see a lot of is pts. Horns won't pull away cause they won't score alot IMO. Some stats, Paul Rhodes is 12-4 Under in conf games .24-17
165- Bama -4.5
Defense wins these games. Wies hasn't had to deal with a real defense yet. Great chess game between him and Saban's boys today. Road fav, yes scary, not advised way to win money. What can I say, I gamble.
159- Tex AM -2.5
Ark QB Wilson had major pressure... [More]

6-0 Last Week : +13.5 Units
17-4-3 YTD: +28.2 Units
Well, have to say, I'm hoping it not a bad sign that I like this week more than last week. Karma will surely not be on my side. Going against both of my Squads. I might as well just bet on Puke to make it a Trifecta. No, they suck.
317-Ohio +4.5 **3 Units**
Williams has left the squad, the line is being shifted around,and in comes a high powered Offense. There defense can only keep them in a game for so long. The offense is passing just fine (when the WR can hold onto the ball), however there is no running game yet. I would love to say I'm wrong about this game: have justseen this story for too log to not know the outcome. They might pull out a win, they shouldn't be laying Over 4 though. Ohio is also 11-4-1 in L16 as a road dog.
346-GT -6.5 **3.5 Units***
This is another team that just isn't ready to go punch for punch. Let's face it, you canstop the Option 9/10 times. The last 1 might go for 85yrds and a TD. when Heels do have the ball, they will have to sustain drives and mak them all count. This Offense isn't ready for that. Am interested to watch the D-Line vs. the Option though. It's a gift that it's still under a TD.
337/8- Ark/Bama Under 50.5 **2.5 Units**
Few and far between have put up big pts vs. Bama and Saban. The offense get its pts over time and there is nothing more I love for an Under than a pound it out running game. Bama may get into t... [More]

Last week: 4-2-1 +4.7 Units11-4-3 YTD: +14.7 Units
Well, I really don't think this is a great betting card this week, however, great football. I did make my 1st lay on 'Neers on Thurs night when the WR news broke, so that's why I have +1.
107- WVU +1 **2 Units**
110- Clemson -3-115 **2 Units**
Anything you want to read about tis game, go look @ Boom's manifesto thread. He will have said anything you had a ? about. Auburn has won games cause they were @ H IMO. Otherwise, they could have been 0-2 & getting +7 and u here. IF Utah St can get after that D, what are the Tigers going to do?
125/6 - Puke/BC Under 48 **2.5 Units**
Unless there are TO's inside the 2, I don't see this more than a FG outburst. Last yr's game was a 21-16. If you watched last week's, you will now agree that Puke's Offense is just that, offensive. I do think that BC has a stout defense, not unbeatable, but they are playing Puke. I would normally be worried about BC taking a huge lead and letting up, however, their best offensive passing weapon is out. So, I expect it to be ground n pound, taking a lot time off the clock. Backup College 23 Puke 16
3 team tease 136-UF +1/2 140-UNC pk 185 Tree +1 ***3 Units**
Tenn might have a great offense, however its against Cincy. UF has much faster athletes and a great defensive mind in Muschamp. The offense under Wies is only going to get better.

Jeff Barker, Sr Writer for Baltimore Sun, just reported this on twitter 15mins ago.
He refers to both of them as "key Sr.players". Both are WR.
Tyler had 6 rec, 43yrds 1 TD vs. Mia
McCree had 7 rec, 39yrds
I like 'Neers already. I didn't think MD defense was that great vs. a subpar Mia. I think this will be a case of they can't keep up to 'Nees scoring. I am putting this in before it changes
'Neers +1 **2 Units**

7-2-2 YTD: +10 Units
Well, I think it would have been an unreal week if WVU got to finish the game and we got the TT as well. I won't complain though. Just hoe it keep going. Tough week as my world collide again: RU/UNC
Bama/PSU Under 42 **2.5 Units**
This is the back end of the home n home series. Last yr, it was a defensive struggle and I think it will be more of the same, with worse QB's. If you want a real write up, read The Freak's.
SO.Car -3 _Even **2.5 Units**
I don't think this is an over reaction to last weeks game. I said they were going to start 0-2. Boise gave UGA O fits, I expect a lot of the same from the Cocks.
RU/UNC Under 48 **2.5 Units**
Here were are again. I don't think I would do this write u justice if I didn't start with most important match up. DE Quinton Couples vs. OG Stapelton/Civil. Couple isn't just good, he is dominant. He's rob the best defensive guy in next yr draft. He will switch around, play left and right side. RU guards will have to give Dodd enough time to take advantage of Sanu/Harrison on NC d-backs. As they stretch the field, (if they have time to) Huggins and Williams should be able to run or catch the ball out of the backfield. Huggins will not be very welcomed in Keenan. Remember, it was down to NC or RU where he was going. He even tricked the media by pulling out a NC hat. Then took it off to have an RU 1 under it. I think RU needs time to get this Offense in full gear and will come u just sho...
