Notre Dame at Michigan State - has action if played before 9/18
Sat 9/15 187 Notre Dame  +2½ -110      
8:00PM 188 Michigan State  -2½ -110 



This looks like a great value to me. The Spartans overachieved a little bit last season and didn't run the ball particularly well, but underachieved big time at ND in losing 13-31. This is a revenge play, and this year the Spartans bring in a defense almost as good as a top SEC defense, have the #1 rated O-Line in the country and the #2 rated D-Line in the country - thats where the games are won. This years squad gets back to the title game with a 10 win season. As for ND- the visitor in this matchup has dropped 4 straight. This is a nasty rivalry, and I think ND is being overvalued by only getting 2.5, as their going to be struggling in their first real test of the season after wins over Navy and Purdue.

It's also a night game.

Will really depend on how Maxwell works- but you are getting solid line value here

Ohio State at Michigan State - has action if played before 10/02
Sat 9/29 209 Ohio State  +2½ -110      
12:00PM 210 Michigan State  -2½ -110       
Do the oddsmakers really think this years Irish are just as good as this years Buckeyes? I think Ohio State is fairly priced here on the road, but the Notre Dame # is off the mark.

I'm also betting MSU to cover against Boise on opening weekend. Phil Steele dropped a forecast on his facebook page, here it is:

Boise St at Michigan St Aug. 31. First meeting. BSU will open the season vs a ranked BCS tm for a 4th str yr. Boise is 8-1 S/'06 vs BCS schools (only loss at Wash in '07). They are also 21-1 the L/4 yrs in true road gms. However, Boise is one of the least exp'd tms in the country with just 7 st'rs back replacing 6 NFL DC's and QB Kellen Moore. MSU has 13 ret st'rs but just 21% of their off yds returning while Boise has 36%. MSU will field one of the best D's in the country, with a top notch RB corps and OL going against a Boise front 7 that returns 0 st'rs. My computer calls for MSU to have a 195-50 rush yd edge, a 227-196 pass edge (422-246 overall) and projects a 30-18 Spartan victory. With Boise's young team making their first road trip I'll go with MSU 30-20 for my forecast!
