CFB...Week 2

Air Force did have a good year last year, going 9-3 ATS.  They had an experienced team and caught some good breaks, they went 6-2 in conf play even though they were outgained in yardage.  However, they only return 8 starters and just 3 on offense.  They lost their four-year starter at QB Shaun Carney and 1400 yd rusher Chad Hall.  I feel Wyoming started out very sluggish last week against Ohio because they were looking ahead to Air Force.  Wyoming returns 14 starters, including their QB, top two rushers and both entire lines.  Wyoming is looking to avenge last years loss and they are 5-2 ATS when playing AF in the last 7 years.  I think a focused and energized Cowboy team takes the field on Saturday and wins by 7-10 pts

Adding to the Week 2 card:

UL Monroe +13

This is definitely a rebuilding year for Arkansas and a lot of their offense will rely heavily on Casey Dick at QB as he learns a new offense under Petrino.  ULM returns 15 starters including their QB Lancaster, their top 3 WR's and 6 of their front 7 on defense.  Think ULM competes hard in this one.

Temple +7

Revenge game for Temple.  I think the returning 22 starters from last years squad comes out with some fire and get after a UCONN team they should have beaten last year.  Temple is 7-2 ATS in their last 9 home games.

W. Michigan -6

I think No Illinois will have a hangover effect in this one after losing a tough one last week against Minn.  This is the Broncos home opener, which they are 51-17 in, and I think with the 17 returning starters, including 9 seniors on defense, they will be too much for the No Illinois.

Ga Tech +7

Just not sold on BC after all they lost from last year's squad.  Jagodzinski and co. will have their work cut out to keep the momentum from last year continuing through this year.  I think Paul Johnson will scheme to keep the Yellow Jackets in this one and they have the team speed/athleticism to play with the Eagles.  If the weather is bad I think that is an added advantage for ga Tech.

Pittsburgh -13

...I know, "The Stache" and it does make me nervous, but I think Pitt actually comes out fired up after last week.  Pitt is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 as a favorite of 8 or more.

Rice/Memphis over 66

Expecting a lot of points in this game.  Total has gone over in 11 of Rice's last 12 road games

Cincy/Oklahoma over 52

Think this game has some big, crazy plays in it.  And with OU running a modified no huddle offense I think that keeps the pace of this game at a high level.  Total has gone over in 6 of Cincy's last 8 road games
