Nebraska is the higher rated team with the MUCH better ST and use of field position.....(which one reason why LSU was able to stay close with Bama > Bama stinks in both areas > LSU usually one of nation's best)

Humble when ambitious - gracious when successful - resilient when you fail.

Book, No problem with you picks. Looks like you thought it out. Does this seem like a extra tough week to you? I played Bowl Gr. -13 and LSU +2 off the top but not seeing a lot else.
Thinking Nev. +2 @ Air Force, Rice +21 @ Marshall ( looking for 21.5) and Fla. St. -1.5. Oh yeh, Looking at @ UTEP -6 or 6.5 N. Tx. I still think N. Tx. is weak.
Hope you have some thoughts on the local Tx. games.

Book, This is what I see on local games. So. Miss.openings @+9. I'm taking that. Late play because Tx. SA QB gimpy. So. Miss. seems to be trying. I see a cover.
Liking @UTEP -6.5 N. Tx. . N. Tx. pretty bad. UTEP at home covers.
I think Rice can cover 3 TD's @ Marshall. This is tough so waiting on +21.5 . I think it will go my way. Love Marshall all year but Rice on a roll . Been winning on both this year. This week I get 21.5 and win with Rice. Watch this one.
