12-06-14 | Wisconsin v. Ohio State +4 | 0-59 | Win | 100 | 97 h 11 m | Show | |
Ohio State has out gained every opponent they have faced this season. Wisoncins 7 game win streak, has the pundits in a big time love affair with them this week, but Im not love struck, and will take the very viable underdog in this spot. HC Meyer is a perfect 7-0 ATS L/7 as an underdog or pick. Note: In the last 46 games vs. Wisconsin, Ohio State was favored in an astounding 44 of those matchups. The only two occasions they were the underdog, the Buckeyes won the game outright. Play on Ohio State to cover 1 unit reg selection |

GTech ha pounded its way to a 5-0 ATS run winning 3 straight SU as underdogs. Paul Johnsons aggressive run attack is averaging 5.96 YPC. Meanwhile, Florida State has consistently escaped losses, thanks to a few explosive plays in each game this season. Six straight games they have come from behind, but that luck, Im betting runs out here today. Florida State has alot of glaring weaknesses, and still getting far to much respect for last years championship season. Gtech to cover 1 unit reg selection |

12-06-14 | Kansas State +8 v. Baylor | 27-38 | Loss | -110 | 51 h 59 m | Show | |
Kansas State is one of the most disciplined well coached teams in the country. They are overall a tough group with a never say die attitude. Baylor is a fine opponent, with an explosive offense, but , they have had a tendency for bi polar inconsistencies, and with all the pressure they face here late in the season, Im betting they tighten up a bit. That is not a good omen against a tough -defense like they will face today. It must be noted that the Wildcats are 7-0 ATS with Big 12 revenge, 10-2 ATS against .700 or better conference opponents and 5-1 ATS as conference underdogs of 8 or more points.. kansas state to cover 1 unit reg selection |

12-06-14 | Louisiana Tech +12.5 v. Marshall | 23-26 | Win | 100 | 89 h 57 m | Show | |
The Marshall Thundering Herd has some prolific numbers on offense this season, but those numbers were buoyed by the fact that they did not play against any Power Five teams in their four non-conference games. Marshall hasn't faced a defense like Tech's, a unit that leads the country in turnovers gained (36) and points off turnovers (150). Im betting on LA Tech aggressive hard hitting defense to win over the Herds explosive offense. Take the points with LA Tech to cover |

The Huskies are taking on Bowling Green for the second straight season on Friday night. A year ago, Northern Illinois came into Ford Field with a 12-0 record and hoping for a second-straight BCS berth, only to be blown out 47-27 by the Falcons. Now payback is on the agenda this Friday night. Im betting on the Huskies getting it vs a lucky Bowling Green side that has allowed an average of 501 ypg this season.

12-04-14 | Central Florida +7 v. East Carolina | 32-30 | Win | 100 | 48 h 26 m | Show | |
"You know what they say always? Defense wins championships and literally we gotta try to prove that this week," UCF senior linebacker Terrance Plummer said. I could not agree with him more. Defense is the key here today, against a aggressive, but not always consistent East Carolina offense. The Knights own the No. 4 total defense and are playing their brst football of the season as they prepare to face one of the best passing teams they've seen all season. East Carolina is expected to force a faster tempo, but defensive lineman Miles Pace said that won't be a problem because UCF always runs up-tempo practices. UCF (8-3 overall, 6-1 AAC) has the big time mental edge headed into Thursday's prime-time contest. With two losses on the record, East Carolina (8-3 overall, 5-2 AAC) is already out of the conference title race. Central Florida to cover 1 unit reg selection |

The Cougars last three wins were against inferior competition , so all the media hoopla associated with their run should be taken with a grain of salt. Meanwhile, California has come along way since last year, thanks a offense that can score against some of the best teams in the nation, averaging 38.5 ppg. BYUs defense is far from strong and should easily get sliced and diced today. I know the Bears D is also bad, but the offenses that have beaten up on them are much better than Cougar opposition, so they will be ready today for the Cougars attack.

No matter what the Bulldogs say Im betting their spirits are a little on the down side today, as. No. 17 Missouri (10-2) rallied to beat Arkansas 21-14 on Friday, clinching the SEC East. Meanwhile, The Yellow Jackets already have clinched a spot against top-ranked Florida State in the Atlantic Coast championship game and are in the running for an Orange Bowl berth.The Yellow Jackets are also eager to make up for 2013's double-overtime loss to Georgia, in which the Yellow Jackets squandered a 20-0 lead.The difference makers today will come via Georgia Techs No.1 conversion rate on third down, moving the chains an amazing 58.3 percent of the time (77 of 132).

The Cardinal (6-5, 4-4) have won six straight meetings between the California schools heading into the Cardinal's latest trip to the Rose Bowl on Friday vs UCLA. Hundley and Mora have lost three times to Kevin Hogan and coach David Shaw in the previous two years alone. UCLA's offense has scored at least 30 points in seven of its last eight games, but Stanford has allowed 30 points just once this season. I know alot of pundits think that the Bruins will be ready for the Cards but no matter what Im still thinking that after playing and beating the USC Trojans last week they will be in a let down situation. It must be noted that UCLA has failed to cover 5 straight times after playing USC and failed to cover 4 straight in back to back home games. Play on Stanford to cover 1 unit reg selection |

The Horned Frogs enter this game fighting for their playoff lives, and the Longhorns are in prime position to play the roll of spoiler on a big stage. The Longhorns has remained a steady anchor of the team from day one of this season, and the offense despite of starting slowly has now become much more consistent behind QB Tyrone Swoopes.The Longhorns are tied for the Big 12’s best scoring defense with Kansas State at just 21 points allowed per game.In the last five games, the Longhorns are 4-1, losing only to Kansas State a month ago. The key todays game will be the ability to intefer with TCUs smooth offense, and behind a scary aggressive attacking defense are capable of doing this.It must be noted that Texas has 37 sacks this season, most in the Big 12 and No. 7 in the nation. Final notes & key Trends: TCU is 2-29 SU in this series, and last year as 3 point favs lost straight up to Texas. Whether, the Longhorns can pull off the SU win is of little importance to me, but what I am betting is that will be in this contest to the end, and thus I am recommedning we take the points.

UCLA owns a fast-paced and efficient offense, and USC handles fast-paced and efficient offenses very well. UCLA beat Virginia by eight, Memphis by seven, Colorado by three, and California by two so there is no reason the Trojans cant cover this number or even pull of the upset according to my extensive cross league data. The Trojans are one of the strongest teams in this conference, and controlled a very good Arizona State side for 57 minutes, before blowing a nine-point lead because of a 73-yarder with 2:43 left and a 46-yard Hail Mary. Capable and talented is the word, and Im backing USC in this spot. Key Stat: UCLA's offense ranks 100th in IsoPPP, a measure of the magnitude of a team's successful plays. USC's defense ranks 34th.

Baylor quarterback Bryce Petty has tried to avoid calling Oklahoma State a revenge game for the No. 6 Bears. He can be politically correct if he wants, but thats exactly what it is. The Bears' national championship hopes last season unraveled with that 49-17 loss at Oklahoma State, after going into that game undefeated and No. 3 in the AP poll.The Bears crushed and beat48-14 at Oklahoma two weeks ago,and are more than capable of carrying out a humiliating beat down of an opponent.

In this kind of environment offenses have a history of struggling, while defenses seem to be in top gear.

Arkansas runs the ball at an average of 235 ypg, and will run the ball down the throats of the vaunted Ole Miss defense. Some are saying Arkansas will be in a letdown spot after last weeks 17-0, LSU win that ended a long time SEC losing streak, I instead say this very well coached side, that now has a boatload full of confidence, and must not be underestimated as they go for their 8th cover in 9 games.

You can bet we will see the best from a UAB side who will also play known that their program is on the chopping block on seniors day. So double and triple desperation is at play today.

It must be noted Blue Devils senior quarterback Anthony Boone was 18-3 as a starter entering Saturday’s game. The winningest quarterback in Duke football history has lost just four career games as a starting QB, the exact same number of losses as Heisman favorite QB Marcus Mariota of Oregon . As far as tonights concerned, it must be noted that the Tar Heels claim to fame is their offense, however, their defense is atrocious. Duke can score in bunches, and when their focused the Blue Devils defense must be considered a top tier stopping unit. Im betting they will be paying attention in this spot, and cruise to a hefty victory and more importantly get us the all important cover. Play on the Duke Blue Devils to cover 1 unit reg selection |

Arkansas has lost 17 conference games in a row, dating back to the middle of the 2012 season, and they are beyond desperate for a win. But just because they need a win, does not mean they are going to get one. Both teams LSU and Arkansas are great at rushing the ball, but they have been plagued by subpar play at quarterback all season . The difference comes via defense. Arkansas does not have a disciplined group, while LSU owns an elite defense that is still getting better. With that said, Im backing LSU. Play on LSU to cover 1 unit reg selection |

11-15-14 | Florida State v. Miami (Fla) +2 | 30-26 | Loss | -110 | 97 h 1 m | Show | |
Im not interested in what the talking heads think about Florida State, and their continued love affair with the defending national champs. The truth hurts, but the truth is, FSUs defense is average at best, and has been consistently thrashed for big yards this season by their opposition. The explosive offense has been their saving grace. But today against a top tier Miami Fl defense that is getting better with time,Im betting the Seminoles offense will be tested and will not be as productive as need be, to make up for the short coimings of the defense.Miami is allowing just 4.2 yards per play, the seventh lowest mark in the FBS (out of 128 teams). In our strength-of-schedule-adjusted efficiency metrics, the Hurricanes rank in the top 15 against the run and the pass. Despite playing a top-25 schedule, the Hurricanes rank third in all of college football, outgaining their opponents by an average of 2.6 yards per play. is 6-3 straight-up and 5-3 against-the-spread this season against the 25th ranked schedule in the nation, their three losses have come against Nebraska, Lousiville, and Gtech , teams with a total of three losses.Offensively, junior running back Duke Johnson leads the ACC in rushing with 1,213 yards and 7.7 yards per rush. The offense ranks top-10 nationally on the ground. Through the air, this football team has turned into a big play unit. Freshman quarterback Brad Kaaya struggled early, completing under 60% of his passes with seven interceptions in his first four games. In his last four starts, however, Kaaya has eight touchdowns and just two interceptions, averaging 9.9 yards per pass. Only Oregon’s Marcus Mariota has topped that mark for the entire season. So if your worried about Miami keeping up offensively think again. All in all, Miami's superior defense, and ability to put points on the board makes them a solid pick today. No team is invinceable and Florida State after consistently grabbing defeat from the jaws of what should have been losses to top tier sides like Notre Dame and Lousiville, will now have to give back some of their positive karma today.Hurricanes HC Al Golden is 14-2 ATS as a home dog, including 14-0 ATS when taking less than 24 points.

Alabama is according to my own numbers the top team in the nation, and I care little what the pundits think. Mississippi State is completely over rated at No 1, and the true number should be closer to -16 favoring the home team, so its obvious to me where the value is. The line opened as -7 favoring the Tide, and my first reaction was, you have to be kidding. The books were playing to public sympathies and the lack of in-depth knowledge. Wise guy money is all over Alabama here. Nick Saban lives for situations like this while the Bulldogs are not accustomed to this type of limelight, and have already started to look a little sluggish of late. Meanwhile, Alabama has held 5 opponents to season low yards this season,while Miss State has held NO opponent to a season low on yards. Bulldogs coach Mullen has lost 24 of his L/32 SU vs .750 or greater opposition, while Saban is 30-13 SU vs undefeated teams. This is a statement game for Alabama, and flag down for anyone who thinks they can slow their quest for a National championship.

Pittsburgh began the season at 3-0 with convincing wins over Delaware, Boston College and FIU, but then for some reason the wheels fell off. The Panthers have since lost five of their last six games, with a impressive five-point win over Virginia Tech sandwiched in between the streak. Pitt dropped a Nov. 1 contest to Duke, 51-48, in double overtime, a game that showed alot of their true capabilities. A recipe for a win for Pittsburgh will center on grinding the ball on the ground, and eating up clock while consistently scoring against North Carolina. Pittsburgh offense averages 31.1 ppg and 247.7 rushing ypg through nine contests played. Conner, the sophomore running back, averages 149.1 rushing ypg, and has touched the ball 220 times out of the backfield, making him the workhorse of the Panthers, and today he will be the key for what Im betting will be a Panther cover.

Clemson has a tough stop unit, but Im betting that wont matter today.( , the Yellow Jackets are No. 2 in the nation with 335.6 yards rushing per game. The Tigers are second in the nation in total defense and fourth against the run, allowing 90.9 yards per game on the ground). The Tigers are expected to have QB Deshaun Watson back after being out for 3 games with an injury, but he will be rusty after the lay off, and Clemson probably wont be as cohesive with him at the helm of the offense .

The Bearcats need one win to become bowl-eligible and need this game badly and will play like it tonight. I know UC has some ugly numbers on defense, but I feel they are getting better late in the season. The three losses they suffered prior to their 3 game win streak came against, Ohio State, Memphis and Miami (Florida), teams with top tier offenses. Yes, I also know that East Carolina has some big offensive numbers, but UC after playing the above mentioned trio will be more than prepared for what's coming their way tonight. It must be noted that ECU is 0-5-1 ATS in their last six weekday affairs and and a lazy 1-8 ATS with rest. Also the Bearcats are 6-0 ATS L/6 at home in this series.

UMass has some public pundits consistently drooling, about what is perceived as a breakout season via their offense which is scoring 19 ppg more than the previous season. What these same talking heads fail to notice is how horrible their 106th ranked defense is . The Minutemen are allowing a whopping 448 yards per game, and live in a world of last possession football. Their undisciplined defense is the reason why they are just 2-7 SU on the season. In comes a Ball State team that is more than capable of exploiting their weaknesses and racking up a boatload full of points and a defense that despite of some CB injury issues is deeper at that position than outsiders might know. Im expecting a Ball State program that is experiencing a off year, and off a heart breaking loss to N. Illinois last week, to do everything possible to get back on their horses this week, and play a heck of a game.Cardinals are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a double-digit loss at home.Cardinals are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 road games vs. a team with a losing home record.Cardinals are 43-16 ATS in their last 59 road games.

“Because of the circumstances, this is a huge game,” LSU offensive lineman Vadal Alexandersaid. “It’s the most important game of the season, and we’re treating it that way.”This is a game that people well beyond the Mason-Dixon Line will watch and appreciate with anticipation. Both teams are hitting on all pistons, having won three straight. They both own bone-crushing running games and defenses with suffocating hard hitting tendencies. They are both more evenly matched than the pundits might appreciate and considering Les Miles 46-4 SU record at home in night games, you have to be brave soul to bet against LSU who almost always plays a solid technical game. .Since 2007, this annual game has been decided by seven points or fewer five times, with LSU winning three of those games. Im betting on another classic with the points ending up being golden. Play on the LSU Tigers to cover 1 unit reg selection |

11-08-14 | UCLA v. Washington +5 | 44-30 | Loss | -115 | 78 h 48 m | Show | |
Football is a team sport , and talented players like Washingtons CB Marcus Peters does not recognize, this so he and his ego were released from the team.The Seattle Times reports the final straw was when Peters got into an argument Wednesday with an assistant coach during practice. Peters also reportedly argued with coaches during Washington's game last Saturday at Colorado and missed practice Tuesday. Bottom line: The Bruins after their big win against arizona by a 17-7 count last time out will now Im betting be in a letdown situation. One of the key factors that could help the Huskies upset the inconsistent Bruins, is the fact they are second in the nation in sacks with 37, and they feature the national leader in sacks on their defense in Hau’oli Kikaha. UCLA, on the other hand, is worst in the conference and 115th in the nation in allowing 3.33 sacks per game.The Huskies are second in the conference and eighth in the nation in turnover margin at +11, while UCLA is ninth in the conference with a margin of -1. With the USC Trojans on board next I expect the Bruins may not be 100% focused in their current conflict, which could effect the outcome of this game in an unfavorable way for them.

Western Kentucky can score in bunches against ugly defenses and even against some of the better teams in this country. Its their equally bad defense that makes them such a wildcard team as was evident in a win vs Navy and BGSU and giving Illinois more than they bargained for in a closer than expected loss. Last week they were humbled by LA Tech in DD fashion (59-10). Their not in a good position against top tier defenses, but this week, they should have very few problems trying to redeem themselves, for last weeks embarrassing outcome vs a UTEP side that despite of a 5-3 record is not a top tier team. Western Kentucky, is your proto typical hollywood college team, with super star jock offensive talent and egos to match. The defense is a hodge podge patchwork, of bad recruiting, but these kids are tough and will also feel like they are being disrespected and play above themselves.

The kid set a Mountain West record for all-purpose yards with all 387 of them from scrimmage in Wyomings 45-17 win vs Fresno State last week as 15 point dogs , and even though I doubt he will do the same again this Friday night, Im still expecting a good performance.

Northern Illinois is not the team and football program it has been over the last few seasons, and the defense, is in my opinion a shambles and unable to stop the most pedestrian offenses. Don't get me wrong their still a viable MAC program, and must not be underestimated, but my numbers say they should not be a favorite against Ball State tonight on the road, and this game should actually be closer to a pickem. With that said, Im recommedning we take the points, with a Ball State squad, that has a new quarterback Jack Milas,and a offense that is getting better as the season progresses as was evident in their last two wins vs Akron and Central Michigan .

This basic premise puts these two teams at the opposite end of the proverbial performance spectrum.

Yes the Hilltoppers offense is explosive, but their defense is non existent. Thats not a good omen this week vs a Bulldogs team, that has a decent defense, and explosive passing game, thanks to a mostly stable ground attack. The Bulldogs' defense has allowed opponents to score 20 points in back-to-back games, but also held UTEP to just three points to start the month of October.

But forget about a win, Im betting the Gamecocks just find a way from not getting embarrassed and keep it close enough for a cover up front or through the back door. I have played out the key scenarios, and feel that because of a capable run game, Carolina rolls the clock and keeps it fairly close. (It must be noted Spurrier and Malzahn know each other off the field, and are friendly, having played in golf tournaments together.

Remember, they held the University of Oklahoma to 28 yards and eight yards rushing in the first half of their game. On offense the Longhorns Quarterback Tyrone Swoopes and the Texas offense have showed significant progress over the previous two weeks and Im betting will continue to progress against Kansas State.

10-18-14 | Western Kentucky v. Florida Atlantic +4.5 | 38-45 | Win | 100 | 47 h 43 m | Show | |
Alot has been made of the WKU offense this season but, the defense has not played up to par, allowing opposing teams to join in on shootout affairs in yielding 38.4 ppg and 516.8 ypg.As for FAU, it has struggled to get anything going on offense this season. It puts up only 21.2 ppg and 325.2 ypg, while scoring on just 68 percent of its red-zone drives. The numbers are not great but the team seems to score at the most opportune times. QB Jaquez Johnson has 998 yards with seven touchdowns and should substantially increase those numbers vs a pedestrian D. Home field advantage I feel will be golden in this spot.

10-17-14 | Fresno State v. Boise State -17 | 27-37 | Loss | -110 | 31 h 11 m | Show | |
Fresno State's up-tempo, spread attack has at times struggled this season minus some serious firepower that departed after last season.They have had a tough time in key situations - they're 107th in red-zone scoring (74.2 percent) and 114th in third-down conversion percentage (31.9 percent). Defensively speaking, The Bulldogs have struggled against the pass, ranking 123rd (out of 125) in pass efficiency defense. Opponents have thrown 19 TDs to four interceptions for 1,805 yards, completing 60.3 percent of their passes. Thats not a good omen for them this Friday night on the blue carpet . Meanwhile, Boise State is 6-0 in home games against the Bulldgos. The Bronco defense held each of its fi rst four opponents of the season Bulldogs since 2001, and despite of being with star WR Matt Miller. are still explosive, as his fill in, Sperteck is a talented option athlete, On defense, Boise State held all of their opponents to less than 100 yards rushing, These teams are truely night and day.

10-16-14 | Utah v. Oregon State +3 | 29-23 | Loss | -120 | 49 h 32 m | Show | |
Sean Mannion has thrown five TD passes in five games - as much as he threw against Utah in one game last year , but alot of inexperience on offense might have been the problem early on, but I was betting the Beavers would get better as the season progressed, and I think I maybe correct in my assumptions.The most accurate representation, of the Beavers' and their progression came in the most recent game: a 36-31 win at Colorado on Oct. 4. I think they are now ready to compete in this conference and the Utes better get ready. It must be noted that OSU really is solid up and down its defense. The Beavers' secondary is filled with playmakers. So if Travis Wilson or Kendal Thompson aren't careful, they may rack up the interceptions. Utes are off a win last time out but that have not been cash friendly against the spread in their following game covering just 6 of the L/22 overall in this situation. Meanwhile Oregon State is off a rest week , and have been good bets in this situation in the recent past covering 16 of the L/21 occasions. The Beavers football program, is a backing bettor friendly 44-16 ATS in October games. The Utes are 1-4 ATS L/5 in this series. Play on the Oregon State Beavers to cover 1 unit reg selection |

10-11-14 | Alabama v. Arkansas +10.5 | 14-13 | Win | 100 | 71 h 7 m | Show | |
Alabama is off their first loss of the season, and may have been exposed, for non national championship candidate. It seems Nick Saban has not bounced well of late failing to cover 11 of his L/14 times after his first win the season. Meanwhile, Arkansas despite of a late collapse , and losing in OT to Texas A&M on the road last time out , have been impressive, and very ready to break a SEC losing streak this week in front of their own fans. Hawgsville should be wild with crazy fans this week, and their Razorbacks will be ready to perform, and put Arkansas back on the College football map. Run Hawgs run!

10-11-14 | Washington +3.5 v. California | 31-7 | Win | 100 | 71 h 51 m | Show | |
California Bears are now back as a media darling. The talking heads went from crapping all over them early on in the season, to a full fledged love affair now. Do these guys really know what they are talking about. I think for the most part most sports analysts and writers know xs and os, and nothing about how to beat the spread so I ignore most of their observations. With that said, I feel Washington has a good chance at a outright win here, with getting the points being golden. Remember this is a Bears defense that has allowed opposing team to torch them for 800 yards of offense. Meanwhile, Huskies’ HC Chris Petersen is 13-1 SU and 10-4 ATS in the regular season entering a game off a rest week , including a bankroll expanding 6-0 SUATS off a point spread win, which he got last time out.

10-11-14 | Auburn v. Mississippi State +3 | 23-38 | Win | 100 | 69 h 40 m | Show | |
Coming off a 48-31 smackdown of Texas A&M, the Bulldogs are in the national spotlight. This is uncharted territory for Mississippi State football. The Bulldogs (5-0, 2-0 SEC) are ranked higher in the Associated Press poll than they have ever been (No. 7 was the previous high nearly 33 years ago). This is the first time they have defeated two teams ranked in the top 10 in a season, which LSU and Texas A&M were before meeting Mississippi State. Their quarterback, Dak Prescott, is in the thick of the Heisman Trophy race. This team is on a trip of destiny, and concentration remains intact. Auburn will be out to upset them, but that wont come easily, making the points golden in my humble opinion. Play on the Mississippi State Bulldogs 1 unit reg selection |

Im not paying attention to the pundits who are saying TCU will be in a major letdown after beating Oklahoma last week. This TCU team is for real, and Im betting they will be up for taking on Baylor explosive offense this week. Dont be surprised if the Froggies pull the SU upset on the road, and wake up the National Championship talk. Play on TCU to cover 1 unit reg selection |

I like Dukes football program and talent base. I know they played horribly against Miami Fl last time out, but I still like their chances in this spot vs what my own numbers is a over hyped Gtech side. Tech coach Paul Johnson has covered only 7 of his L/19 in second of back to back games and has failed to cover 5 straight times under those perimeters. While everyone talking head in the land might be dismissing the Blue Devils , Im not. With that said, I am recommending we take the points. Play on Duke 1 unit reg selection |

10-11-14 | Rice +1.5 v. Army | 41-21 | Win | 100 | 65 h 21 m | Show | |
Rice is starting to wake up after a slow start. The same thing happened last year when they looked asleep at the wheel in the early weeks of the season. After week three of the season since last year they are 11-1 SU. Meanwhile, Army might be off a win last week and getting respect from the linesmakers . But the truth is the military men are just 0-11 ATS/SU L/11 after a win and are susceptible to a letdown. With that said, it looks like Rice is very ready for this matchup and good bets on a pickem type line. Play on Rice 1 unit reg selection |

10-10-14 | Washington State v. Stanford UNDER 53 | 17-34 | Win | 100 | 10 h 27 m | Show | |
Stanford is a defensive force with a less than stellar offense. Stanford leads the nation in points allowed ( 8.6 ppg) . The Cardinal are a under machine, as is evident by going under in 9 of their l/12 overall. Stanford can slow the most explosive defenses, so Washington State does not scare them. The Cardinal dont really have much off a cohesive offense, and are not really capable of running up scores , so the under looks very much like a strong wager. Key Trends: The UNDER is 4-1 in Washington State's last five road games, 8-1 in Stanford's last nine conference games, and 4-0 in Stanford's last four overall.... , the UNDER is 8-3-1 in the last 12 meetings, Play UNDER the set total 1 unit reg selection |

10-04-14 | Utah v. UCLA -13 | 30-28 | Loss | -109 | 74 h 33 m | Show | |
The Utes have played well, but they will play a UCLA side that Im betting is a potential National Championship candidate. (Last week UCLA crushed Arizona State 62-27). The Utes have played the Bruins tough lately, so there is no way the Bruins will over look this contest. It must be noted that last week, Utah blew a 21-0 first quarter lead and lost 28-27 lto Washington State, and will have had the wind knocked out of them, by that uneventful showing. Thats not good in a contest vs a heavy weight with some huge punching power. UCLA has covered 7 of their L/8 after scoring 50 points and than playing at home.

Georgia Tech possesses the No. 11 rushing attack in the country, but the offense is there by virtue of volume and not necessarily because its been particularly outstanding. Truth is their so one dimensional their pretty easy to read for good defenses. Meanwhile, Georgia Tech's run defense has not been strong, allowing 5.43 yards per carry, which ranks 114th in the nation. With two quality backs ready to attack for the Canes,(Duke Johnson and Joe Yearby) GTech is in trouble.

TCU and coach Patterson look like they finally have their dream team . This is argueably the best product the ol ball coach has assembled, and Im betting they make life difficult for the Sooners today.

Now with a new need for urgency on board, with conference football coming up against tough opposition the Hoosiers need to win.

10-04-14 | Virginia Tech -2 v. North Carolina | 34-17 | Win | 100 | 65 h 29 m | Show | |
The Tar Heels are a disaster movie in how terrible on defense they are. Only two FBS teams give up more points per game (44.0), they cough up 543 yards of defense, and they’re on the field almost 35 minutes a game.UNC’s explosive offense might have somewhat of an advantage against the Hokie defense, and are pretty ihgh octane, though Virginia Tech will likely not get smashed as badly as half asleep Clemson last week. Meanwhile, the Hokie offense is by no means explosive but should have a decisive advantage against the Heels defense that reminds me of Swiss cheese. The Hokies are 22-2 SU and 17-6-1 ATS in conference road openers. Play on the VTech Hokies to cover 1 unit reg selection |

June Jones wasn't able to duplicate his high-octane offense from Hawaii at SMU and now hes gone (resigned) and now the Mustangs start a new era. Meanwhile,East Carolina has burst onto the national scene with a pair of quality wins against Power 5 competition and own a national ranking Here is a quote from interim SMU HC. 'We can't keep going like this,'' interim coach Tom Mason said. ''That's my job. We just have to believe in ourselves.'''We're going to keep working,'' Krstich said. ''We still have eight games, and I have full confidence we can make it to a bowl game.'' The team has been said, to be getting along pretty good, and looking better in practices. Well Im not sure, about that, but what I do know is that according to my own numbers we have inflated line favoring East Carolina. With that said, I am recommending we put a clothes pin on our noses and pull the trigger here with the points. Believe it or not there is value to be had. SMU is 7-1-1 in their L/9 as underdogs of 32 or more points. Play on the SMU Mustangs to cover 1 unit reg selection |

Florida is a much better team than many might think. I know they failed in their opportunity vs Alabama last week but Im betting they bounce back in a big way this week, vs a Tennessee side that played a over hyped Georgia program tough last and will now be in a letdown scenario. You have to remember Tennessee has 22 true freshman in the lineup, and these kids played like their hair was on fire last week. Now, its crash time for the Vols. It must be noted that Gator QB Jeff Driskell is 16-4 as a starter and is a senior veteran who knows how to bounce back. Florida has also won 9 straight in this series and number 10 could come here. More importantly getting points looks to be golden. Play on the Florida Gators to cover 1 unit reg selection |

We had a live dog traveling out to the land of the Mormons this Friday night. AS Utah State concedes around three TDs to a highly ranked opponent ( BYU). It must be noted that the Aggies are a cash making 9-0 ATS as dogs of 5 points or more. My own rankings also suggest this line is off by 4 points. I like the value we are getting here with a hard working under-appreciated side. Im also betting the Aggies find a way to keep QB Hill in the pocket, while slowing this game down dramatically.

This time around I expect the Ducks to be very ready to play and also hand out some punushment in revenge mode. It must be noted that the Wild kitties are just 0-8 ATS in their L/8 vs undfefated programs. Meanwhile Oregon is a bankroll expanding 26-5-1 ATS L/32 play with conference revenge.

The Trojans had a bye week to stew about their 37-31 upset loss at Boston College. But dont expect the Trojans to bounce back that easily against OSU side that has progressed from game to game and has proven to have a formidable defense and more balanced offense than in 2013. It must be noted that the Trojans are 1-5 off SU road fav loss. While Oregon St 6-0 ATS in 1st of back to back road games and 9-2 ATS away with conf revenge. Also USC is a bankroll depleting 1-5 ATS as favorites of 19 pts or less vs a side with conference revenge. Oregon State to cover 1 unit reg selection |
