A weird season so far. There are some teams that I just can't figure out yet (Jets, 49ers, etc.). Should be interesting the rest of the way.

My card so far is as such,

Miami -4, I just think they're too strong for Pitt.

SC +3, I really think this is the year the Gamecocks make some noise. Loved them against Georgia and love them here.

Oklahoma -14, I think this line is alot lower than it would of been had they not been tested by Air Force but I think they bounce back and win a blowout here.

NC State +8 1/2, Not a believer in GT at all. I'm fully aware of the potential for the option to go nuts but I love the NCS QB and think this will be a close one.

Stanford -4 1/2, Maybe i'm Cardinal crazy but they look like a legit contender and I think they can score on this ND defense.

Dola, I really wish the Temple line was a few points higher. For all the talk of PSU opening things up a few years back they have sort of regressed in their playcalling.

Temple is a solid and experienced team on both sides of the ball and this will likely be the biggest game these kids ever play. -14 is the perfect line to scare me though.

Was able to get Temple at +16.5 on Monday. Of course I teased them to +21.5 along with pitt +8.5 and nc state +13.5. Have a hunch I'll need that tease for pitt at the very least.

I like your Temple play. I think I will tail you two.

Temple has most of their team back from last year and have a solid running game and defense. Makes it seem like they can keep this close enough to cover.

I have no feel for tonights game. I am tempted to take the under just because I feel like Pitt is going to try and play a grind it ground control game.

I other news I have been doing really well betting baseball. I have basically been riding the under for SF, SD, and Seattle games and I see a really odd line tonight.

San Fran has scored 1 run its last 2 games and the over/under for their game against the Cubs tonight is 12.5, the wind must be blowing out like crazy at Wrigley. I am taking the over and hoping for a wild one.

The game just started and the wind is blowing out to center. Blowing about 15-30MPH.

Doesn't Oregon State +18 seem real high to you guys? I know they have been playing shit defense and it's in Boise, but that's a big number.

Adding,
Alabama -7 1/2
Texas -16 1/2
Northwestern -7
West Virginia +10, may throw some down on the ML here as well.

Looking at Temple & Kentucky as well, maybe even small ML play on each of those games.

It does seem huge.

OSU almost beat a great TCU team in Texas and can run the ball just about as good as anyone in college football. Plus BSU struggled against a Va Tech team that we now know isn't very good. The Rogers brothers are college footballs best kept secret, especially Quizz. I'll be on OSU for sure.

Really like the over 55 in tonights game as well as TCU -18. They are the only game in town tonight and they are going to want to showcase how good they are.

you guys really think TCU will allow SMU to score some, I'm assuming somewhat if your taking the over. I like smu , and June Jones but I feel this is a bad matchup for them and TCU might in fact just shut them down big time.

Honestly don't know man. I'm just guessing maximum drives for SMU due to their style may allow them a couple scores. Expecting TCU to score a ton but afraid to pull the trigger on them now at -19.

Glad I got in on the over, looking decent so far also glad I didn't bet on TCU, but they could def still cover regardless.

Going with a lot of non-teaser plays tomorrow, to name a few I really like:
Stanford -4.5
I would be hesitant here with a big Oregon game looming for Stanford but I think Harbaugh is one of the top 5 coaches in America and his guys will be ready. It's Notre Dame for crap sakes, not hard to get up for this one if you are a Stanford kid.

Nevada -4
A lot of people are worried that Nevada will have a letdown game after killing Cal. But BYU has been destroyed on the ground and I just don't see how Kaepernick and company can be stopped. Plus, BYU has a lot of injuries, including the 2nd half of their two-headed QB monster. That's a big loss since he was the wiley scrambler and tough to game plan for both very different QB's style wise. True FR Heaps goes all day and I don't see him completing 50 percent of his passes.

Oregon -11.5
Arizona St was able to hang with Wisconsin last week on the road. That's because Wisky plays a slow, grind it out style that Arizona State's physical defense could contain. Not so much against the speed of Oregon. Love Oregon in this spot.

Also on:
Boise St -17.5
Troy -10.5
Kansas St/UCF OVER 45
Air Force -13.5
NC State +8.5
West Virginia +9.5
So Miss -3.5

I love Stanford tomorrow. I can't figure out if it is a busted line because of East Coast bias or if I am missing something.

I think people just think Stanford is due for a letdown on the road. Plus they are without their #1 WR Whalen(Whaley?) Notre Dame coming off 2 tough losses at home will bring their A game. Kelly will have them ready no doubt. I just think Stanford is a machine, remind me of Drago...haha. All business.

Early Games-


Mich-Bowling Green- +58- Mich defense stinks and Bowling Green can score.

Iowa -28- I bought the half point. They are going to be very angry and take it out on Ball State

Va Tech-BC- +47- No Williams means throwing the ball more for Tech

NC State +8= Still can't figure out why they are getting so many points with a QB as good as theirs

My final ticket,

NC State +8 1/2
Northwestern -7
Mich/BG +56
Iowa -28
Tennessee -14
Air Force -14
Texas -16 1/2
Stanford -4 1/2
Alabama -7 1/2
Oklahoma -14
South Carolina +3
West Virginia +10
Utep -12

No double downs, no teasers or parlays, just straight up plays. I've been killing myself with money management and losing my big bets the first couple weeks, as I am want to do, so I'm trying to just play it straight. Laying alot of chalk but so be it. Will likely add more later.

Army-Duke- Love the over 55. The fewest points Duke has given up this year is 27, and that was to powerhouse elon.

USC-Wazzou- I refuse to take USC -23 since they have burned me every game this year, which means they win 55-3. Instead taking the over 55/ Wazzou has shown they can somewhat score this year.

3:30 games-

Stanford -4.5 and +60. Stanford is that good. ND knows they will need to score to win. I see a 45-31 type score.

Rutgers -44 vs. UNC. One of my best friends works for RU football and says no way RU will move the ball on USC.

PSU-14 vs. Temple- Been a lot of talk about how Temple can keep it close, I don't think they can.

Wake-FSU +62. Wake is not very good defensively.

Tulane-Huston -56. UH just isn't the same offense without Keenum

UCLA-UT +43. Hard to imagine they cant get to that number

Bama-Ark-+57. I think it will be a shootout.

Added half bets on UNC -3 and Temple +14. Everything about UNC screams trap but I can't believe they arn't slightly better at the very least than Rutgers. The Temple one? I'm just rooting.
