Ouch is about all I can say for yesterday. 1-4 overall -4.6u, and those 4 were all flat misses, no tough breaks or bad bounces. The units hurt too, for someone like myself who doesn't play 10u a game. I knew that week was coming at some point but I'd hoped it wasn't that bad. I haven't calculated up the totals yet, but for the actual BoldPredictions plays (14-9-3, +3.8u). This week's a new week though, and I'm getting back to playing my bread and butter type games, underdogs and short lines. Week 6:
Illinois 21(+2), Michigan 16
Michigan looked good in the second half against Wisky which means they've looked good for exactly 1 half this year. The Illini have struggled as well, but were competitive for most of the game @ PSU. Michigan certainly has the capacity to win this one, obviously, but they should not be laying points here against a better, more experienced squad. Illini win a tough one here.
Along those same lines So. Caro 27(+2.5), Ole Miss 20
This should be a good one but it's certainly a good situation for the Gamecocks. Ole Miss coming off a huge win, but this is still a team who lost at home to Vandy and USC is about due for a big win. They're defense is legit and its about time the offense gets rolling.
UNT 42(+6) 2u, FIU 30
Two very bad teams here, this line shifted probably about 13 points after this past weekend. The Mean Green plays no defense, FIU has been one of the worst teams around though they blew out heavily favored Toledo this past week. UNT has revenge from last year when this was the only game FIU won and this is far and away the worst offense they've faced this year. I think the defense admirably holds FIU under 40 and the offense lights it up.
UNLV 28(+1), Colo St 17
Another line that's jumped after this past weekend. UNLV had a tough one against Nevada, a rival team that's going to win some games this year. The rebs though are a much better team, the Rams are going to struggle this year and UNLV should be looking to get bowl eligible as the season goes on. The Rams got killed this past week, admittedly against a very pissed off Cal squad, but I'll take Clayton and the better team to pull this one off on the road.
