Hey guys I am a big USF fan and I just wanted to let you know that the spread is what it is because the Bulls have a new QB that supposedly looks alot better in practice then the other guys, not like that is saying much. Eveld may be the worst QB in CFB statistically ever (not exagerating) and Bench (Transfer from Penn. St.) hurt his knee and really has not been great either way. They are playing Mike White and even if he stinks, it cannot get any worse then what we already have used. Plus Marcus Shaw (was a top 10 rusher before getting hurt) will be back. If I was making a play on this, I would take Houston but games with brand new freshman QB's always scare me.

Bridgewater is good up until the red zone. (not just tonight) I'm not sure if its playcalling or he just struggles when there alot of traffic but thats going to hurt his stock alot in the NFL.

I made a teaser with Bears - 1.5 and Over 41. Giants D may be worse then the Jags and the offense is not far behind.

Honestly the Over teased to 46 could happen too but something tells me that this will be similar to the Saints/Bears last week. |

I am pretty new to the Over/Unders so I wont act like I am an expert but I have been having fun teasing some that seem off. Heres some I will be on, small bets, for this week. I am teasing all of these by 6 points until I feel like I am comfortable taking them straight up.
Raiders / Chiefs Under 46 1/2 - Both of these teams have consistently kept their opponents below their averages. Neither offense is great, and I see both teams trying to shorten the game through the run. 17-16 Chiefs. Panthers/Vikings Over 38. - Newton tends to play well against teams with a poor defense. Panthers D is very good but when you put up 30 on the Bears and 34 on the Steelers it tells me that a 20 spot is not out of reach, especially at home. Panthers 24 Vikings 21. Bills/Bengals Under 48 - Jeff Tuel.......yea hes not scoring more than 14 on this Bengals D. Likewise Bengals could even have a solid day on offense and I still dont see this getting to 48. Bengals 20 Bills 10 Saints/Patriots Under 56 - I love this one. Everyone has caught on to the fact that the Saints D is great this year but the Patriots are no joke either. It hurts that Wilfork is done but the bend but don't break D has been carrying the Pats. Saints 24 Pats 17. Broncos / Jags Over 47 - Seriously this O/U is nuts. Broncos could cover on their own no doubt, but they have also been giving up alot of points, and not only in garbage time but throughout the whole game. Broncos 45 Jags 20. |

And the Chargers are one of the worst at being Dr. Jeckel and Mr Hyde in back to back weeks. I have lost many times backing or fading them based on how they looked the previous week. Agreed, Chargers are one of those teams that seems to constantly burn everyone one way or another. I had them last week after beating a decent Dallas team and they s**t the bed. Colts are very tempting here but I just have this gut feeling that Rivers and Co. may decide to show up at home. No play for me but GL to anyone who does. |

I'm with you on the Saints. The Patriots have problems and the Saints may be a better overall team then the Broncos. Rob Ryan has this D playing smarter and tackling much better,

It all depends on the situation too me. There was ALOT of value on the Jets yesterday, but I get the whole rookie qb, on the road, monday night thing. I personally like playing NFL teasers and just picking my favorite underdogs mixed with some easy over/unders.

Lol I meant to say the Cheifs O is mediocre. Their D is really good, but I still think the raiders have a solid defense too. I like the Raiders to cover. Yes I do think Geno is better than Dalton and him and Cutler and him have had very similar seasons. I have watched Geno all year and the best stat that I see with him is 43 percent completion to Santonio / 63 percent completion to ANYONE else. He was trying to force it to Santonio and hes just not that good anymore, still solid but the injuries have caught up to him.

Top Picks
Bears -7.5 The Giants are terrible, Bears are still solid, bust got beat by the best NFC team and a solid Lions team at home. Jets pk - This Jets D-Line will terrorize Big Ben. Steelers have nice numbers on Pass Defense but have faced Dalton,Ponder,Locker,and Cutler + horrible run defense. Jets at home doesnt hurt either. Saints +1 - Saints are playing great Defense this year + Brees is on fire. I know the Pats are at home but I just cant see how they win here. Leans Raiders +9 - Oakland has been holding everyone they play below their average, bad news for a mediocre Cheifs D. Under 40 Oakland/Cheifs - 2 really good defenses and 2 average at best offenses....I see a 14 - 13 type game here. Eagles pk - Foals worries me, but the Bucs are close to giving up. Ravens +2.5 - Home Dogs have been killing it this year + Packers have legit problems of offense. 3 team Teaser 6 points Denver -20.5 - The 26.5 is a little high even for this game but 3 TD lead seems safe. 49ers -5 - It worries me that this is a division game but 49ers seem to have found their mojo again. Palmer isnt very good, but the Cardinals D may keep it close. Colts +5 - Colts are on fire right now....San Diego has beat the NFC East, not impressed expecially after the performance against the Raiders. Not Touching Browns/Lions - Browns have been hot but I cant put money on Weeden. Panthers/Vikings - Vikes should take this, but the panthers seem to show up once in a while Cowboys/Redskins - Skins are coming off the bye and have one shot at redeeming the season. This all depends on which Cowboys team decides to show up. |

Games are long and when the D gets bored once its 35-0, Bama usually gives up a score. Wow I called my own shot there. Congrats to anyone that took the risk |

FSU, at home in a tuneup game, will look to sharpen its D prior to the bye week preparation for Clemson. I'm in a score prediction pool, and I selected this game with a score of 44-20 FSU. I was back and forth on Maryland but I watched the whole FSU game last week and that team was overpowered by BC for a huge chunk of that game. BC had looked terrible all year too before than and Maryland is big and nasty. I think FSU takes it but Maryland is rested and if they punch the noles in the mouth early, they could win SU. |

It should pay off this time, but never trust these weirdos 100 percent. North Texas is pretty solid though. They played Georgia tough and lost to a very sound Ohio Bobcat team, thats only loss was to Louisville. The MAC these last 2 years has a handful of great teams and a handful of some of the worst in the nation. |
