CFB 11/15: Navy-South Florida is battle of two great QBs

YTD 5-7 -2.8 units

all plays 1* so far

I went 1-1 last week but am aggravated anyway.   The win was a great pick on +11 1/2 UConn which beat Duke straight up but the loss was on Oregon State who outgained Sam Houston by 317 yards and 20 (!) first downs but still managed to lose.  I'm against Sam H (a terrible team with an awful coach) again but I like one play more:

1* South Florida -9 1/2

Showdown of the best two quarterbacks most haven't heard of.  The difference is Navy's Blake Horvath is banged up (he's likely to play which is why line has dropped) and South Florida's Byrum Brown is healthy.  Brown is on track to throw for 3000 and run for 1000 and that's normally enough to get Heisman consideration.  Navy won its first seven but every one of the wins was against a soft opponent and Navy could lose its last five.  South Florida has one of the best offenses in the country and the defenses are even.  South Florida passes well and runs well and scores at will in conference games.  USF is 72 ATS and Navy is 2-7 ATS

Opinion only:
Delaware 9 1/2 (Sam Houston got its only win of year last week and it was a bizarre fluke; Delaware is better than people think)

the OR st loss was the most bizarre game of the season. two kick ret TDs. other than that? 8 FDs for Sam. 

N Tex destroyed this navy team, albeit at home. USF in a mismatch. weather looks ok.

And the other Sam Houston TD was off an interception that started them inside the Oregon State 30.

Oregon State should dissolve their football program after that last Saturday night.

They have become a total disaster. They outgained Sam Houston 474-157. They should have won by a million but the result shows why the program is in disarray. Not a good for the revival of the Pac 12.

 Like both these picks, sir

Navy could not stop North Texas even with Horvath and South Florida routed North Texas

Delaware is sneaky good. Down 8 after giving up a pick six with under 2 minutes to go, they stormed back to score but missed the two point try. 33 seconds left, they recover a  perfect onsides kick, complete a pass and hit a 51ydFG at the gun. Gutsy, never quit team that beat UConn (That beat Duke last week) earlier in the year

Good luck 

Was not aware of the stats in the Ore. St. game...jumping Jehoshaphat 

Good luck Griswold.
