@Brigham Young -23 over Louisiana Tech
Brigham Young has been on a tear. Will it continue? BYU will only play 8 games this season, and the schedule is weak with Houston coming up being the only potential threat. BYU is ranked for the first time in years. They seem to be having fun with it. BYU lost its starting Free Safety You to a knee injury and have a few injuries and some minor Covid issues. La Tech is well coached with Holtz, though based on my own personal observations, La Tech can be feast or famine. When they are winning, they are dominant, when they getting beat down, they give up. La Tech has 6 returning starters on O and a Grad Tr QB from Abilene Christian who can sling it. They have some weapons on O who can stretch the field. They also have a Gr Tr from Texas on the DL and a Gr Tr from Va Tech at linebacker which should help. The problem I see with La Tech is the experience on D. That team that shut out Miami-Florida in the bowl game 14-0 has only 2 returning starters and those two are on the DL. Thus their back 7 are completely new starters, going against Zach Wilson and a balanced BYU O, that as we have seen enjoys scoring about a half a hundred a game. Granted, Navy did not look prepared in the first game, but Troy was also lighting up opponents prior to their game with BYU, and they were shut down, and BYU's O dominated. All that, and Provo, Utah is at 4,880 feed or 86% of a mile high. Even in a normal year, against a talented power five team, that would be an advantage for BYI. Throw in the Covid pandemic, and training at near sea level in Ruston, La., by the 4th quarter, that poor La Tech D will be holding up the white flag and will be winded, to say the least. The BYU coach, who in my opinion until this season is quite marginal conveyed that he does not intentionally try to run up the score. That's what Nick Saban and Dabo say as well, prior to beating bad teams by 40+. I don't think BYU will go much beyond 50, to be a good sport so it comes down to, can that BYU D hold La Tech to 26 or less. I am betting that they can... Finally, BYU may be delusional, but with their 8 games, assuming they go undefeated, and beat teams to a pulp, they believe that with some signficant luck, they have a dark horse shot at the CFP. Laugh if you will, but this may be one of their better teams in the last 25 years. I understand the love on Covers for La Tech, but I think you guys are capping this game with last years La Tech Team, one with a 3 year starter at QB and a solid D, versus the 2020 version, in all due respect. I guess we will see...

Perhaps, but how is La Tech going to stop BYU? You must be on La Tech, because it sounds like you are wishing or willing me a defeat on this game? Thanks for stopping by!

As you requested I do with my time I did my homework.
I just gave a simple opinion on your play in your thread. Sounds like you have a problem with that

Perhaps it was your tone...You did not state overtly which side you were on and it sounded like, based on your research, that I am going to lose my bet tonight and that made you feel good to tell me that...Maybe in addition to all that diligent capping work, you can work on your writing skills...That's just my humble opinion, based on my research...

Perhaps??? It is quite evident that he has mental and emotional issues that need to be treated with professional help.
Hey LH I wish you the best this week in getting to the pay window. Do you ever do plays that do plays that are not favorites? Just checking as I very rarely see you play a dog. Good luck again this week and thanks for the write ups and predictions.

Last I knew this was a public forum for anyone to comment on any thread they so choose. I suggest you consider making your own forum then you can tell others where they can post, what they can post, and how they can post. This would serve you probably well since you want to moderate every week what other post or complain to the powers about others. Have you ever considered this?

I am keeping this about football and he turns it personal. Its not personal I am just opposite this play tonight.

You are 100 percent correct but consider the source you are commenting to? His history of lashing out at others who do not disagree with him goes back years. Good luck as always spottie2935, and your contributions on very appreciated!

Lets let this thread fade away. We know who he is. He doesn't deserve this publicity. Cant even discuss a game without him making it personal.

who are you referring to? Me? An anonymous capper posting free picks, with a full page write up supporting my pick with regard to BYU v. La Tech? I feel confident with regard to my picks, but even if I lose tonight and tomorrow, what does that have to do with whether or not I feel stupid. There is a degree of randomness that none of us can control with regard to college football capping. We all do our best. Let's see how the 2nd half goes...

Happy to see speaking the truth to you makes you laugh! At least we keep it real. Again good luck this weekend on your picks.
