The rolleater done some munchin week1 as I gave 3.5% of the roll to the books. My two initial plays were winners with Illinois and South Carolina. I was pretty much set on betting those two only, but I couldn't resist the temptation to bet more games with it being week 1. So I picked 4 straight losers, with one being a shitty MAC team (Toledo) and 2 (USC/Cincy) being teams playing their first road game with a new coach. Total crackhead type breakdown on my part. So on to week 2.
YTD: 2-4 -3.5%
Week 2
Tennessee (+13.5) 2% This is a tough game to cap with Tennessee's lack of returners coupled with Oregon's apparent explosiveness in their week 1 blowout of a poor NM team. Tennessee with Florida on deck while Oregon St plays Portland St.. Tenny is young on O with new backs, new Qb, and a completely rebuilt line. But that line is big and powerful, and I think Tennessee runs for about 5 yards per carrie in this game giving QB Sims the chance to make some big plays. Tennessee's defense should be able to slow Oregon's offense down and keep them in it.
If these two had played at the end of lastyear's regular season I would've had a line of Tennessee (+.396) with an incredible 81 percent chance to cover the 13.5. I gotta keep it at 2% because of the huge transition of coaches and players for the Vols, but these numbers would usually warrant my first 5% play of the year.
But to be honest with you...I think Oregon will beat these guys by 3 td's on there on field.
