They both seem like tough lines... I def hope boise gets to a 10pt win but definitely wouldn't play the 6, and the later part of the 2nd quarter was slow. I think Boise D picks it up and the 28 will not be as easy as the 1st half was.

I didn't see any news about the RB being injured, what I saw was that their top WR is out 4-6 weeks.
Point noted about Utah State. That was simply unacceptable. In hindsight perhaps I should have just stayed away from this game, but it is what I posted and will stick with. I am hoping that the bigger conference school got a wake-up call last week and will not look past UAB, but work to get ready and school them (keyword being hoping). |

Final Card
This is my list of 10 games... I like multiple's of 5, and had trouble setting up the 2nd set (which originally had 7 games, the missing 2 being Nebraska and Notre Dame). Top 5: Missouri Tennessee Boise State Georgia Tech BYU (Etrigan, I know you don't like it but I just don't see CSU as even close to capable to play with these guys. I will agree they are not worth the hype they got after weeks 1,2.) Second Tier Kansas Ohio State Penn State Texas A&M Mississippi |

Thanks for all of the insightful comments all!
Jman and LBC, officially, I have agreed with you. I'm going to pull the trigger on all of the other games, but leave this one off. What I thought about to give it perspective was they lost by 28 to LSU. Is Nebraska as good as LSU, I think not, I think LSU is far underrated this year and think that will become apparent after this week vs their SEC opponent. mvp, I certainly see what you are saying. Notre Dame had a major reason to play the last two weeks, and it is tougher to get excited about a non-rival, and school without any substantial streak against you. My gut still leans ND, but the logic is starting to say back off. OSU: PSU hasn't played anybody and Iowa has become motivated at least for a couple of games. This one will be very interesting to see. Just like with ND, the gut is telling me that the "better" team comes out and puts up the points. Either way, BOL to you all this week. I plan on combining these into 2 5-team round robin parlays by 2's and 3's (nebraska being the game left out). Perhaps a side play on Ole Miss as well. What are your reads on the Ole Miss - SC game? |

Alright, I have it narrowed down a bit, but am still looking for some input. Which of the following is the Worst? Best?
Nebraska Ohio State Penn State Texas A&M Georgia Tech Kansas |

I wouldn't put Clemson and Virginia in the same category as mediocre ACC teams. I see Clemson as the far superior squad. Virginia, I think we all can agree is miserable this year.

I'm afraid of that. If I had to choose right now, it's between dropping Penn State, Kansas, or Nebraska.

I appreciate the clarification... I have it written down correctly too and somehow mixed it up.
The insight into BG's passing game is important to be sure, but I think if you look at what happened in Fresno, Boise can still play the shootout. An equally important question is whether Bowling Green's defense can stop Boise's offense. To me that seems improbable. Nonetheless, thanks much for your input. |

I don't think it's a trap at all. To me there is a clearly better team, but I've been wrong in the past. I'll err on the side of logically thinking who is the better team.

I like that you pulled the trigger on it. I have that lean but can't get myself to the point of playing it. Iowa had an obviously lack-luster performance, and Iowa St played a mediocre D1-AA team. BOL to you... I'll be curious to see how this one turns out.

Your Northwestern play is solid, and I feel relatively unnoticed by many. This EMU team is been a huge flop against the Big Ten over the past few years... Northwestern just has to come out and have a pulse. Should be a comparatively easy cover.
