Still playin catchup ..
UNLV .. good spot .. good call .. best game UNLV played all year ..
HOU .. unreal and unfortunate .. team showed up asleep .. I didn't see the end but imagine there was a miracle involved .. UCF D was the big worry but my guess is we also needed their QB to get hurt to give us a chance .. I'm sure nobody else had a 9.5 as BOL was the only one .. hope others were able to tie ..
NU .. another big spot boom .. 2 parts penn state bad and 2 parts NU pretty awesome .. one part new stadium
CUSE .. up 27-7 until cuse penaltied UCONN to a free score before the half .. pretty much had this in hand .. that Uconn QB is dangerous, saw him hit a good number of passes while under heavy hitting pressure and escaping sacks and just got the ball out .. Absolute case of CUSE CRAP .. hope they were running gassers at UCONN till midnight ..
UVA .. dud .. pure .. Pribula ended up playing and looked like he shoulda been in the hospital instead .. no pulse on this team, real surprise nosedive from week zero ..
ARIZ .. Great spot at home catching cincy, whose a bit of a fraud on their first road game ..
ASU .. same idea as Arizona Baylor first true road game ASU off a bye .. looks like they were still on it .. Baylor was untouchable all night and made deviled eggs out of them pretty much every play .. Great spot spoiled .. Baylor looks good in what seems like a pretty wide open and up for grabs BIG 12 ..
MSU .. he's not quite lamar jackson is he .. Miss State BIG SPOT spoiled with treacherous mistakes and when the spot wore off late they had no answer to these guys .. absolute drubbing ..
C.CAR / MASS .. MASS-IVE disappointments at home .. Mass with their biggest home game in forever, hope they learned a lesson they can use to carry them to a fun year because their schedule is
BRIDGE PLAY
INDIANA -8.5
Nebraska playing 3 turds in non-con along with the two biggest turds in the B10 Mich State and Maryland .. they rely greatly on the run game and this is Indy's specialty shutting NU and Rutgers down .. we'll see what Nebraska can do with under 100 on the ground here whilst Indy racks up 2-300 .. Collandria is also a big stud when he can scramble but under pressure he's a pretty serious dud and has been his whole career .. think Husker offense falls apart at the seems ..
It is a funky spot for Indiana with the tougher than expected game vs NU and then roll out to NJ and now roll out to Lincoln with Ohio State on deck .. that's what we're seeing with the short line .. but regardless I don't see Nebraska effectively running much here and run D tends to travel .. think their rush offense will too .. Turbo nearing 300 yds himself last week and Lee BEEBEE has been a lead horse much of the season, was questionable last week .. Indy not known to false step in these spots but yeah this one does look a little tricky .. Major look ahead but again think Nebraska is probably overrated and the best things Indy's D does happen to be the things Nebraska can't do without .. I think ..
SMALLER
W.KENTUCKY - PK (BOL)
Decent size smaller as other books showing -1.5 or -2.5 .. we'll see where the lines end up but WKY's rating is in the toilet they were projected 16 point favs in this one pre-ssn and big drop expected when you go on the road to nevada in the opener and you're winded getting run over .. then play indy and uga .. only home game vs mercyhurst then hit the road again vs NMSU in a big home spot / short week etc .. This is the big home opener for them and there's still a whole lot to play for in CUSA for this bunch ... MO State can certainly play and tangled up with SMU in a really ugly spot for the ponies last week .. they're off a bye .. their schedule leaves us wondering still they couldn't close Marshall at home and not much else to go on with Lindenwood and blown to smithereens by TAMU .. I think this is close to even teams but might get alot more from WKY in their run game and not have all the long road trip mistakes we saw last week .. BIG SPOT to gather themselves and turn their season around ..
Prob not gunna see many more Pick'ems out there but maybe -1 or -1.5 still works ..
SMALLER
FIU / NMSU UNDER 47.5
FIU's D has played very well pretty much every game and has a knack for tying opponents up .. NMSU off the big home spot I can't see this being their best game .. maybe the worry is if FIU's offense catches fire here we could press close to this total?.. But I could see FIU win easy with NMSU not doing much in this big home spot for the panthers .. also note potential rainy night wednesday with rain streaking across the gulf into florida .. not the basis for the play but I don't think mucking up the field will help .. recall FIU / FAU was a mucky mess and dead nut under like 16-10.. GOOD LUCK!
BRIDGE PLAY
N.DAKOTA STATE -1.5
UNLV off their big game big spot we loved the BP there last week .. this is a diff story with a team that can dismantle what they're doing and put heavy pressure on jackson arnold .. there's a chance for UNLV to catch fire but I like the prospects for NDSU for the win .. this was always one of the BIG GAMES for NDSU and UNLV to decide the conference and while I think we see a good effort from UNLV iI just gotta like NDSU here .. better hurry this will be -3 in a hurry I think .. check FAN ..
BRIDGE PLAY
TULSA +3
Bad taste in the mouth but I will say these guys ended up going toe to toe with a really good team last week .. NTEX looks like a team that can at least make the AAC champ game with really great QB good REC weapons, the RB is a MAJOR DUDE and good defensive prowess .. Tulsa got punched in the face and it was a big home spot for them and the market had this one pegged with the move toward UNT late and if you took the late number you covered with Tulsa .. I think this one pushes closer to even .. Tulsa has a really feisty DL that I think keeps this Navy team at bay .. Navy QB Guittierez .. the line suggests Woodson may be back at QB as he took 3 snaps vs AF ... and he is a major dude running the ball but he's not much passing .. We'll see what Woodson can do here, he was available last week but just 3 snaps .. AF was a decidedly bigger game for Navy than Tulsa is and Middies have a trip to UTSA on deck .. maybe its split time who knows .. but either way I think there's too much missing from this Navy team this year and hope what we see is Tulsa able to stop woodson from scrambling and get favorable matchup when they have the ball .. Tulsa also has an emerging star field goal kicker high rated guy proving to be solid so far .. probably better overall than Navy's freshman kicker whose not seen much action but whiffed his one shot from 40+ already .. Field goal kickers are huge here .. also a potential mismatch on pass rushing, tackling and coverage .. tulsa got iffy grades on covering last game which is to be expected UNT's attack is pretty impressive .. Navy may throw down field a few times but it'll be trying to catch Tulsa off guard I'd imagine .. Tulsa can put them in 3rd and long and make Navy struggle here I think .. good luck!
@bookieassassin
ohh dude I had this marked down I had Rice last week for their big spot they've been mucking games up pretty well .. but here we are on the flip side of a 32 point loss last year to USF that buried all hope for this bunch .. them and N.Texas look like the home payback spots although one of them can be had pretty easy if they don't fall down the trash heap and boy is it a BIG HOME SPOT ..
I hear what yer saying on the under 7 .. for Bridge Plays.. will be waiting to see that but taking a play now and gunna drop a deuce on it if we get under a TD ..
Hope all is good with ya buddy .. Miss your thread with the BA rankings and spot talk .. taught me alot .. 
BRIDGE PLAY
UTSA -7
Must kill home spots have been pretty dang good for this bunch unfortunately think they missed covering in some spots with lines for UTSA having been inflated dramatically over the years and team has underperformed since losing the greatest OC in CFB Will Steiner Recliner .. remember when the RR's and Navy were the odds on sure thing no doubt about it winners-to-be of the AAC? .. welp UTSA is still in good shape but at this point the defense probably feels like dog doo doo and the lines as a fav have come down .. but USF just has something not right going on w them, temple's D is not what I would call "good" and functional offense should put some points up on them .. big home spot they couldn't do much vs them but the D has been decent enough and able to muddy up quite a few games so far certainly in terms of overall scoring .. Playing this now and we'll see if we get -6.5 I'd much prefer this number as BA mentions .. USF has a super ace kicker that can land em from deeeeeep .. UTSA up 10 can let USF shimmy down late and Gramatica can probably boom one from 60+ in a dome .. FG's play a prominant role in the USF offense .. the hope is UTSA can hit escape velocity on offense and we don't have to worry about FG prowess .. I definitely want in on this spot but really don't want to lay 7.5 vs a kicker with a thor-hammer for a leg so taking now and we'll see if 6.5 shows up later .. GOOD LUCK!
