Buffalo +4 I think they win this game outright and have no business being a 4 point dog. Ohio have watched both teams play a few times and Buffalo is the better team IMO, watched against common opponents and Buffalo was way more competitive.
Wyoming +7 Another inflated line, Wyoming is pretty tough at home and I really like the emergence of Frosh running back Brian Hill, he is a beast and looks better than the players he is playing against and with already. Only been 2 games where they fed him the ball but his talent is easy to see.
Dame +2.5 I just don't respect ASU as much as most do, they were physically dominated in the 2nd half on both sides of the ball last week vs Utah and were lucky to escape with a win. This will be the first time on bet on Dame this season.
Baylor +6.5 I don't understand how Oklahoma is a 6.5 point favorite here. They hardly ever win big games, they beat up and pad stats against cupcakes and then choke against real competition. I don't see them stopping Baylor at all on defense. When you give up 482 yards against a Texas team who is pretty awful on offense, I can't imagine what Baylor will do to them.
Louisville -3 I liked what I saw from Louisville qb vs FSU last week and Louisville's defense during the 1st half. I was fortunate to win with FSU but Louisville actually went up on my rankings after watching that game. Unlless they are completely depleted after the FSU loss they should win this game rather easily. BC had a good win last week at Vtech but let's be honest, Vtech is pretty bad this year.
Virginia +19.5 I think the way that FSU has played all season this is too many points to be giving up to a team that only gives up an average of 24 points a game and have done that against some pretty good offensive teams. Also FSU may be looking ahead to the Canes next week, this is a classic sandwich game.
Ohio St +3.5 OSU can put up points against anybody, Mich St struggles on offense a lot of the time. I see this as an OSU straight up win.

I've had the pleasure of watching Baylor 2 weeks in a row, and they don't seem to be in synch on offense. Petty still looks hobbled with a knee injury, and the offensive line isn't that good, making it more difficult for him to have time in the pocket. He's not a mobile QB. I think a coach like Stoops can dial up a pretty effective defensive plan to make life miserable for him this week.
As for Louie, I just don't see how you can possibly recover from blowing a 21 point lead against the #1 team in the country, even if it was 10 days ago. BC plays smart and disciplined and won't make mistakes. Louisville is more talented, but it won't be easy to get up for this game after what they just gave away.

Everything else is awesome.
I agree about Louisville motivation as I mentioned in my post also.
As for Baylor offense not being in sync, I don't see that. They looked bad against a good Texas defense on the road and on the road at WVU, they did whatever they wanted in every other game. It won't be the Baylor offense that I am worried about in that game. I will never trust Stoops in a big game especially as a favorite until he gives me a reason too. I was high on Oklahoma before the season but they are shakey to me, especially on defense. I don't think either team will have to punt much if at all so I like the points in a game that I think comes down to last possession.
I appreciate the input and thoughts, wish there was more sports talk and sports thoughts in these forums instead of some of the nonsense

I hope you're right about the SU Ohio State win, but I think the Spartans (and Meyer to some degree) will put Barrett into some bad spots. Urban knows he can't win going conservative like they did with Penn State so he's gonna have to take some chances.

I have no dog in the fight..yet, but anytime Baylor is getting 4 - 6 pts its gonna draw attention.Personally i think that the powers that be are are looking to draw Baylor $$, or Vegas could be wrong bout this one.It happens.I usually jump on this kind of situation and side with the the powers that be, but i aint giving points to a team that can score 30 on a bad day.

Way off with Buffalo last night, what a huge disappointment.
Wake Forest +21 This should be a low scoring game as both teams struggle on offense, obviously Wake more so. I am hoping they will play some inspired football at home on Thursday night. This is their Bowl game.
Browns +6.5 I see a low scoring hard hitting game here, taking the points in this one. Also mad a small play on the under 45.5.
