morning men! great day for football, let's make it a great day to win more than we lose and grab a little cash while we do it. here we go.
Had this game circled all week as has gman. let's first start with the situation. Georgia has been fighting for Richt all season, not they are at a point where they have settle the wrestless natives down. they get a hard fought W in the cocktail party and have taken care of business winning 6 in a row. The first win starting this run was where they needed to settle the natives down and show them that Georgia is a powerhouse team was against Coastal Carolina and I was on Georgia big in that one. They needed to punk a soft fbs team down to flex a little bit. In this situation, i don't think they need to show off. They will win no doubt about it, but they don't need to demolish New Mexico state here. they are undoubtedly battered bruised from the Florida game and may have a bit of a hangover. they held off on their suspensions until after that game and now are imposing those suspensions. Its homecoming at Georgia, which all homecoming means to me is that there are other distractions going on when they may not be completely focused to begin with.. Hell, if you look at the Athens paper, the first sentence says....."Georgia gets a break from their SEC schedule today...."
Georgia has a tendency to give up big plays, lack of focus today, i can see a big play or two...Georgia’s defense has allowed just six touchdowns in the past six games, but the Bulldogs have surrendered big plays elsewhere. Florida’s Jeff Demps scored on a 99-yard kickoff return for touchdown. Vanderbilt’s Andre Hal took a kickoff 96 yards for a score. The Commodores also had a fake punt that led to another touchdown. Mississippi State scored on a 72-yard interception return. Let's not forget about Blair Walsh, the kicker with the damaged Psychy...13 of 23 this year on field goals. Here's another quote from the Athens newspaper....There’s not much to gain in this one for Georgia. They could be plenty to lose if a key starter goes down with injury. Georgia is missing suspended tailbacks Isaiah Crowell, Carlton Thomas and Ken Malcome and without injured Richard Samuel. Georgia sophomore Kenarious Gates replaces Dallas Lee in the starting lineup at left offensive guard. Lee is out for the regular season with a broken leg. That leaves center/guard David Andrews at the sixth man on the offensive line. New Mexico State’s Taveon Rogers is second in the country in all-purpose yardage and has already returned two kickoffs for touchdowns this season.Georgia has given up two kickoff returns for touchdowns this season, including one last week. The Bulldogs are also last in the Southeastern Conference in kickoff coverage.New Mexico State has already played and won in a hostile big-conference environment. In the Aggies’ second game of the season, they traveled to Minnesota and beat the Gophers 28-21. I know its not the SEC, but it is a different environment for the Aggies. both teams are averaging about 30 ppg, obviously the competition isn't comparable, but i think the Aggies will score enough to keep this within the number. The Aggies have covered 5 straight and are 6-1 ATS on the season, the situation sets up well and I think they can get it in the endzone a few times.
New Mexico St. +34
this game has gotten a bit more interesting as the week has progressed. Everrette Withers slinging mud on NC state about graduation rates and frankly has no room to talk given their ncaa sanctions and O'brien rightly fired back so there is def some added ummph to this one this week. State has owned unc the last 4 times out, but i'm not sure how much of that was due soley to Russel Wilson. UNC has an edge on the defensive line, but shaky corner play. State has the edge at linebacker and lead the league in INT's. Glennon should be able to find success throwing the ball all day and I don't think they have a running game to have that in their gameplan. These two have combined to score 54,56,51,58 in their last 4 games vs. each other. I feel like State has their number and they are going to need to score to cover.
Nc State +4

two teams going in opposite directions here. MD is clearly rebuilding and UVA is finally starting to put it together and it couldn't happen for a better coach in Mike London. Fresh off a beating of Miami with a few extra days to rest, UVA will take their run game up to MD and do just that. We saw last week that MD undersized defensive line has a tough time standing up to road grading run blocking O lines and power run games and I think UVA has the horses to do just that. MD has the worst run defense in the ACC. MD has lost 4 in a row SU and 3 in a row ATS. UVA hasn't won a game in November in a long time, but i think they have turned a corner, they have a real chance to be bowl eligible this year and the situation is ripe, they are moving up, md is moving down. I think uva is the better team and have the fewer question marks.
UVA -2
boise st needs to demolish unlv, plain and simple if they want to keep their name in the conversation. they are 8-3 ats as favs of more than 31 last 3 seasons. UNLV coach Bobby Hauck announced on Wednesday that five of his players will be suspended this Saturday for unspecified violations of team rules. Among them are sophomore linebacker Tani Maka — the team's leading tackler — and sophomore running back Tim Cornett — it's second-leading rusher. Also out is highly-touted junior college transfer linebacker Princeton Jackson, who is tied for third on the team in tackles. More a gut feel than anything but I just don't see UNLV keeping this one close. 56-6 boise.

One game I disagree with is NC State. But anything can happen in a rivalry game.
