Let's have a big night tonight!!! Feeling good about all four. Picks are below
$1000 Jacksonville Jaguars +4
The line is at Indy -3.5 -115/120 at a lot of books right now. Cheap to get it at +4 for the Jags. I'm taking the Jags at home tonight. Indys 4 wins were by a combined 19 points. 4/5 wins are by 4 or less points and the 6 point win was in overtime in a game they trailed until 5 to go in the 4th qtr. This Indy team has 24 players on their roster at 24 years of age or younger. They are very inexperienced and lack a ton of talent. They could very easily be 2-6 or 3-5 right now. I'll give them credit for getting wins but they are not as good as advertised.
Jacksonville only has one win but it is against these Colts. That's not something you can take lightly. The Jags know this is a prime time game and a chance to get some respect from a national audience. They hear all the hype of Luck and the Colts and will want to spoil that party tonight. The Colts are still riding high off that emotional win with Paganos speeches. They now have to get ready for a road division game. Luck is still a rookie and hasn't been as near as impressive on the road this year as at home. Their defense is still shaky at best as well. The public is all over the Colts as expected.
The public went something like 12-2 or 13-1 last week. Most likely they will be giving some back in the next few weeks. This line is low for a reason in my opinion, and that's to get action on Indy. Even if the Colts pull this out it won't be by more than 4 points. Indy has only been favored one time this year. That was at home as 3 point favorites to these jags. They lost. Based on that line Vegas had these teams as a pk on a neutral field. Now all of a sudden Indy is fading 6 more points from that line of -3 at home. That's too many. This game should be a Pk. Take the points with the home team. Jags with the upset 24-23.

Just a small play here on VT. Florida is 0-3 ATS in their last 3 road games. Virginia Tech has had a disappointing season so far, but a win here will put a positive light on the season. They are well coached and won't lay down in front of a home crowd on ESPN. I don't think they will win the game, but their defense will play good enough to keep it with two TD. Florida St. wins 27-17.
$1000 Oklahoma City -2
Westbrook will have a favorable matchup tonight and this OKC team is too athletic for the Bulls to handle. OKC also has better depth than then Bulls. The Bulls have played pretty easy competition this year, and have struggles somewhat. They also don't have a go to guy when they struggle to score, but their defense has won them games. I don't see that happening tonight. OKC played their best game of the year against Toronto and I look for that to continue tonight. OKC wins 105-95
$1000 Portland Trailblazers Pk
This is the first game the Clippers play on the road this year away from the Staples Center, and it comes off a big win against the Spurs. They put a lot of energy on defense last night to beat the Spurs in a game they wanted to win after getting swept by them in last years playoffs. Portland is always a very good team at home and this is a nationally televised game on TNT. They will play good believe me. I don't think the Clippers will have the same energy as last night and they will fall behind early. The Clippers are also turning the ball over too much for me to back them in their first true road game. Portland gets it done tonight. Portland wins 98-90.

I have the same feeling on your picks (disregarding V. tech bc i know very little about cfb). And that was before i looked at your thread. Jags, Thunder, Blazers for me tonight. BOL

My sentiments exactly!
What do you call an Eternal Optimist? An accordion with a beeper!
