These are my early leans so far:

Really think Wake Forest is the better team here, just worried they  can't win by 3.  They played so many games last year only winning by 1 point.  ACC anything can happen.  I have to ask one question here would Wake have lost to Maryland.  Wake will play more physical in this game.  Plus they have the better D. For now I hope the line drops to 1.5 then I will jump on Wake. 

UAB + 18 all day long.  They will play Houston tough here and hang with them, I can see them having the lead in the 1st half.  I just hope it goes higher.

I love College Football.

I agree on the UAB pick.  I am also thinking of taking the under.

I think the trend will change this year.  Clemson has cost me a lot of cash the last few years though. 
dixonbets says:

Scared of the under both teams have the ability to put up some points.

Clemson generally play well after a bye week especially after a tough loss at home prior to the bye week


dixonbets says:
10/08/08 01:20AM
Do you think that Clemson would be dogs if they would have beaten the Terps????
dixonbets says:
10/08/08 01:23AM


Good Point.  But they played Central Michigan team after there bye last year, lot weaker team.  Plus Clemsons O was a lot stronger last year.

I like UAB too.

 

This line is high.

Think that the Wake came will be low scoring and high scoring in the UAB game.

What is the lowest that Wake has got??  I got - 2 1/2
dixonbets says:

Wake Forest punter/placekicker Sam Swank strained his right quadriceps

in practice Monday and is officially listed as questionable for

Thursday night's game against Clemson.

Read this on ESPN.  I did not know this. Does anybody know who the back-up kicker is this could make a difference in my play now.

The Kicker is probably out for Thursday game. Wake Forest kicker is a walk on freshmen. This could be a big blow to Wake because they probably have to go for it on 4th down or punt when they could take 3 points.

Both teams are coming off a bye week after losing games they should have won. Wake has the better coach and the better D and playing at home. Wake will win this game by 7 or more points.

 

Wake 24

Clemson 17

Without the starting Kicker I see this line dropping to -1.  Any thoughts?
dixonbets says:
10/08/08 08:55PM
I will wait and see what the kicker does before I grab this one.

I live about 30 minutes from Winston Salem and the rain set in about two hours ago.  Its a steady rain, no down pour.

Looking hard at the under also at 42.5

Has anybody heard anything about the kicker yet?

dixonbets says:

Leaning on the under for the 1st half on the UAB game at 33 1/2.


The steady rain has turned to a drizzle now.

on UAB as well dixon, gl tonight
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 03:58PM
Line has dropped to Wake -1.5

Think I will still play Wake even if Swank is out
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 04:28PM
If people keep pounding Clemson the line will be reversed at Wake + 3
I am waiting till game time to make my wager.  I feel Wake should win this game.

Dixon,

Sam Swank playing will be a 50/50 that he will play. However if he can't go he will be replaced by a freshman, whose supposed to be pretty good. I'm still on WF!!

dixonbets says:
10/09/08 06:00PM
Dang already at + 1.5 Wake.  It will keep going to +3
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 06:22PM
Has anybody heard that the kicker was out for sure?
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 06:44PM


I hope you are right especially now that Wake is a Dog
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 06:56PM
UAB on my book went to + 17.5
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 07:00PM
The total on the Wake game is rising.  People are pounding the over.

If it gets back up to 44, I will bite.
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 07:08PM
Locked in on:

UAB   + 17 1/2

UAB/Houston      under 33 1/2   1st half

Still waiting right before game time on grabbing Wake.

Good Luck to All tonight!         
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 07:21PM
I can see the ending in this game decided by Wake's back up kicker winning the game on a 50 yarder
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 07:32PM
Went ahead and grabbed:

Wake + 1 1/2

Tonights wagers are 1.0 unit each
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 09:10PM
The Kicker is making me nervous      
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 10:57PM
UAB/Houston      under 33 1/2   1st half            

Wake + 1 1/2                   
dixonbets says:
10/09/08 11:29PM
UAB   + 17 1/2          


2-1 For tonight.  Can't believe UAB letting them score 42 points in the 2nd half.  Talking about a moose.
