Freak, love the write-ups, very well-written. In fact, I like them so much that I have no choice but to disagree. If it makes sense, your writeups make a little too much sense for my liking if ya know what I mean.
Lemme 'splain. I know that when I find myself feeling very confident about a play, posting long passages in various threads, passages longer than the schmuck who started the thread, I start to get a little weary. It's that whole idea of knowing too much for your own good. I especially hate this because you try to provide some rationale for your pick instead of following the trend of the majority of the Joe six packs that roam this board who just post picks.
Love your write-ups. Love your contributions. We need more posters like you on this board. I just think you see some freaky (am I allowed to use this) stuff happen tonight in Mountaineer land.
GL to you.

Vols - I feel your pain bro. Many people on this board know that I was on the Vols HUGE against Northern Illinois a few weeks ago, and they shit the bed. When I say HUGE, I mean HUGE. And whatever number you're thinking right now, I promise you it's much bigger. In past years I have been very successfully betting Tennessee games, but I haven't got one right this year. I think I will this week.
I have several good friends who are Tennessee grads, and they all pretty much feel like you do. As much as they want to beat Bama, they know it won't happen. Actually one of them told me he hopes Bama beats them by 60 so they get get rid of Philopotamus.
Unfortunately for you, I'm pretty certain your on the wrong side of the game tonight. Maybe you can hedge it a little by betting WVU team total under 21.5. See my Shambler response.
everyone!!!
FREAK OUT!!!
Freak,
I agree with your Tennessee friend and I'm sure many Vols fan agree with us about hoping Tennessee get beat by 60 points so we get new head coach.
Not sure if you know that Tennessee have the biggest recruiting budget ($2,000,000 / year). Imagine having a decent coach at UT. we would finish in the top 5 recruiting every year.
I hate to see Tennessee get beat up by Bama but since we're going to lose anyway we might as well lose BIG so maybe we will get new coach!
Bama win 27-13 but hoping for 60-0

Freak and Nashville..I am with you both..Bama 60-0....Fulmer is killing us on recruiting, while we are in the top 20, we used to be in the top 3 to 5 every year..anyway, good luck tonight, still debating this WVU AUB game, but Freak, you are making some valid points that have peaked my interest. I still like AF and the Over though..BOL to y'all!!..

Yeah, Tennesse was there very year in recruiting. Before the internet, it seemed like it use to be between Notre Dame and Tennessee for #1 & #2 every year. The problem is that Fulmer has never maximized his talent. He should have at least 3 national championships.
Here's to 60-0

Well, my under play went all to hell..almost at HT, so much for a great Defense in Auburn. And I don't know what to make of WVU, it took them 8 weeks to get there shit together, but boy did they..that is the WVU that I am used to betting on, hopefully they will continue this trend, so I can make some $$$$ off them. We have a long weekend ahead of us..I got my AF win (cha-ching)..and lost the Over there (not as much as the game), and I got my 2H AF and under...Freak, no worries, we will get them tomorrow night and this weekend...

I'm glad to hear you hit your Air Force bet!!! Yeah, I am absolutely stunned by what West Viginia did to Auburn's defense. They absolutely shredded them the entire game. Only 2 early interceptions prevented them from scoring more. Basically Auburn never stopped them. They just ran at will.
Well, congrats West Virginia backers!!!
FREAK OUT!!!

I'm still in shock by Auburn's defensive effort against West Virginia. I really thought 17 points would have been enough to cover the spread in the game.
Anyhow, that one is behind me now. I'll look forward to another big Saturday!!!
Early Games:
Kansas -1 vs. Texas Tech
Army -2.5 vs. Louisiana Tech
Wake Forest +2.5 @ Miami
Afternoon Games:
LSU -1 vs. Georgia
Tulane -2.5 vs. Rice
New Mexico St. @ Idaho -13
Night Games:
Alabama -5 @ Tennessee (Best Bet)
Southern Miss. -4 @ Memphis (Best Bet)
Mississippi @ Arkansas -6.5 (Best Bet)
Late Games:
Oregon -3.5 @ Arizona State
USC -15 @ Arizona
Sunday Game:
Tulsa -23.5 vs. Central Florida
to all!!!
FREAK OUT!!!

Like most of them Freaks, Love Kansas and Tulsa bet also had the Over Kansas as well. The only one I have against you is the USC one. USC is my fav college team but I don't see them winning more than 2 td's here. i had Arizona +16 on my 3 team parlays. BOL today bro.

Wow Freak the Alabama line is now only 4.5? i got it at 6.5 a few days ago. Why is there such a big dro? any injuries ?
I believe some touts have released Tennessee as a play which has caused heavy action on Tennessee. Realize, however, that touts many times give heavy weight to historical data. That data is really not relevant in my opinion because that data was collected during Bama's probation depleted years. It was also collected while Bama had no coaching stability. In other words, Saban wasn't the coach.
I am very confident in this play primarily because I think Tennessee will struggle to score points just like they have all season. Tennessee's QB Nick Stephens will be making only his fourth collegiate start in his career and, as one would anticipate, he has been very shaky thus far. This will also be the first time Stephens has seen a 3-4 defense. Expect Saban to throw many different looks to confuse him into making mistakes.
Both teams will have the same basic strategy on defense. Both will sell out to stop the run and force the opposing QB to beat them through the air. That is a matchup that drastically favors Bama not only because John Parker Wilson is a vetern 3-year starter who has outstanding offensive weapons, but because Bama has a superior offensive coordinator. If Bama jumps out to an early lead, that will spell huge trouble for Tennessee, because if they are forced to try and win with their the passing, this game will likely get out of hand quickly.
The other factor that heavily favors Bama is coaching. Without going into great detail, this is Bama's biggest game of the year, and Saban prepares for this game all year. He will pull out a lot of things Tennesse has not seen on tape. I also would not be at all surprised to Saban to pull out a trick play or two (something he almost never does). Last year he opened the game with a successful onside kick. On the other sideline you have a very incompetant coach in Phat Phil.
Last year when Bama had inferior talent, Saban drastically outcoached Phatty and Tennessee was blown out 41-17. Expect Phat Phil to be drastically outcoached again.
In sum, don't let the line fluctuations discourage you.
Final score prediction: Bama 31 Vols 13
