Clemson will only get better with the return of Watkins (top 5 player in the nation), IF they can finish drives....

WTF is up with Tedford and Stoops? OU won, but I watched that game and they were horrific on offense. Maynard isnt a good qb. Every game Ive seen him play he looks like he should be catching balls, not throwing them......

Crazy as it may sound, I'm actually excited to watch the Nebaska/UCLA game!! I will be looking to play the over.....

WV looks like a freakin machine.....They didnt miss a beat from the bolw game last season. Should be good for a ton of overs as their defense still isnt anything to write home about.....

I will be on Iowa St this weekend. They looked hungry.....

Miami looked decent, surprisingly enough.....

Colorado sucks.....

Rutgers is in for a "down" year......

Houston. Really?

Washington is gonna be in trouble this week @ LSU ......


Would LOVE to see Oregon and WV play......


No worries BOOM, if a .500 week is a low point we will be celebrating most of the season!!

Since many people come here to bet your plays, I think it's only fair that an accurate record that includes vig is posted alongside your vig-less record.  Don't want anyone getting confused by when their numbers don't match up.  I think most people have to pay vig, right?  Yeah, pretty sure.

Boom great write up. I really enjoyed the Clemson Game. They have some talented offense weapons. Theres going to be mediocre weeks of betting somewhere in the season. Its the nature ofthe beast. It just happens to be at the start this time and we still have a shot at being profitable. GL in the final 2 games of the week.

Boom.  Thanks for the post.  I have always looked to this site for different perspectives into games.  Love your posts.  I will chime in whenever I feel I have anything valuable to bring.  Keep up the good work.  Let's win some money.

They say that 80% of internet traffic is porn.

15% is alias creation for Boom threads   

I would like your take on OU though, can I trust that soft team next week?  I need my units back from that soft team.

Wasn't the week I was hoping for either Boom, but gotta get back after it tonight with lines coming out.

B1G did get a slap in the face this weekend....even though I loved watching Meeechigan get hammered for multiple reasons.

MSU NEEDS a passing attack, this goes to show how important Cousins was to the team, dude was a gamer....Bell might get killed if they keep up the 40+ carries. Their D isn't as impressive as most thought as well, but it's only week 1.

Don't be fooled by the 56-10 showing from my Buckeyes. After watching the first quarter, I wanted to shut it off. Team came out the exact OPPOSITE most thought...D will gel, but the MiamiO passing attack was gunnin' it from the start. Week 2 WILL be better in all aspects, I'm hoping for a line of -20 or lower against UCF (oddsmakers will give credit to UCF's performance against, cough cough, Akron...and OSU's slow showing) UCF will be tough, but I see the Bucks pulling away again to cruise for an easy win.

Yes, 56-10 is a win, and cover....but OSU looked like shit imo.

Team will be where Urban wants them once playmaker Jordan Hall returns, hopefully by week 3....the offense will definitely open up.

extrapolate this week for 18 weeks on the year with bowls and bum saves himself 23.4 units out of thin air betting magic +100 lines

Nut huggers come rationalize this fact

Bama fan here but i think Florida will improve now that Driskel is broken in...never underestimate hungry gators.....  also I have to disagree with the notion that Clemson dominated Auburn...the War Eagle passing game came out and bit the Clemson secondary numerous times and their running game at least to my eye got some traction. Now Clemson didnt have all its fire power so thats a huge disadvantage right there....as always  thanks for the hard work

Boom,

I always read your threads and thoroughly enjoy reading them. Every now and then i'll post and had a question. Was OU's game just them being not interested in playing or are there some concerns there? After the way WVU took care of business against Marshall I like them to win the Big 12. Dana knows the Big 12 and Geno seems to have full control of that offense.

Great read as always Boom.  Always love checking your threads following the week's action.

I guess you got caught up in all the Week 1 excitement, you even threw in an extra "Thing We Learned" (two #4's) for us.  I say you keep it going and make it 10 (+1) Things We Learned.  Keep up the good work buddy

Interested to see if you have any thoughts on Nebraska from this weekend. The defense started off shakey but ended up solid the second half. Special teams was a disaster and if it doesn't get better, it WILL spell the end for the Huskers even if that offense continues to play as well as it did. GL on GA Tech tmrw and the rest of the season.

You commit as many penalties as UF did yesterday and you are going to kill yourself no matter who you are.
