Best situational plays: (Army +6 @ Wake Forest) Army looking ahead to next week's game vs Air Force for Commanders Cup & Wake w/ extra week to prep for option...go Deacs.
Similar dynamic for (Air Force -13.5 @ Fresno St) w/ the added intangible of Fresno firing HC. We've already seen 3 teams (LSU, Purdue & FIU) play at another level after making the change...Bulldogs are the pick. How do Penn St & SMU now go on the road & follow up their big wins? Give me Purdue (also shooting for bowl bid) & Tulane please. Funky lines: Texas (+2.5), Ole Miss (+3.5)...the books are telling us the right side |

As we near the 3/4 pole, week 9 offers several situational & opportunistic plays.
There are 3 dynamics in play that have a direct impact on ATS and warrant our attention. 1. There are 9 undefeated teams remaining (Bama, Michigan, Clemson, UDub, Baylor, Nebraska, WVa, Boise St, WMU). We know from history that these teams start to feel additional pressure and get picked off. 2. Teams are looking at their remaining games in determining bowl eligibility. Picking the right spots where these teams will exert max effort is key. 3. The first Playoff ranking comes out Tues. Certain teams will take a keen interest in this; especially those on the outside looking in. Beginning this week, style points become more of a factor.
Here's a few games that may be influenced by one or more of these... |

I've followed you the last 2 years and tend to agree w/ your situational-style of picking. It definitely holds truer to form in college rather than the pros.
Congrats on last weeks' picks...here's hoping you keep the hot hand this week. In addition to the 4 games you've referenced, what's your take on these? UConn +22.5 vs UCF (off L'ville win) Boise St +7 vs BYU FAU +24 vs Auburn (off A&M win) Wake Forest +22.5 vs Miami (FSU looming next week) Thanks in advance for any insight or opinion.

Then TCU goes for it on 4th down when a FG would ice it....surprised this is getting no play in the media. I'm also done w/ TCU this year...

Maybe it pissed off Patterson...2nd week that TCU finish looked strange...I'm avoiding them the remainder of the year.
