    Just as a note. AJ Long would have been 2nd stringer if he didnt get injured in camp. He is a much better qb talent wise than hunt the starter. Long can run and they were worried about his arm but as anyone seen in the fla st game he threw the ball much better than hunt ever did. I may do first half under.

    thanks so much guys  appreciate the comments

    Joe, Slashot  Love the Cuse intel - really helps me and i am sure a lot of other guys. A definite no play on this game no chance i can play an under with an unknown qb that looks to be their best and most explosive option - GL 

    boomer - good observation  i think now that the total is coming down the temple over might be worth a look - gonna stick to our +8 and hope that the WR turned QB for houston is not that great GL

    neasiy  prob would not go out of my way to watch So Flo

    flexit -  i like all of those leans to be honest but have not looked at those games in detail yet - mich st game makes me a bit uneasy due to unknown ind qb situation but if indiana cant run on sparty it will get ugly - so agree i guess....lean a bit more to hawaii under vs sd st but again have not looked too deep yet - sorry man - busy ! GL 

    Bandos thanks for that great call last wk on UAB - SICK Have not looked at S Miss yet - that would be a tough full unit play but now that you point it out - they will go in our ML underdog wheel as a MAD BOMBER to spice things up.....Agree on SMU in tank mode - May have to pass on the Chips this wk - line looks pretty much bang on to us but again - have not looked at it in detail yet - thanks a million for posting GL

    La Tech 8 UTSA (50)
    Not going to play this game - too much uncertainty surrounding the UTSA QB situation - bad news- down to 3rd string qb - good news - like Cuse he may be 3rd string but in fact the best of the bunch just no way of knowing - he did go 14/17 last game and UTSA D still decent.....La Tech may eventually get on our MAN CRUSH list they have had a couple impressive ATS efforts and the odd stinker....UTSA on the other hand has lost 4 str ATS after impressive showing vs Arizona and Houston......no read on total - no ML play here

    WK 6 Fla Atlantic (69)
    Have the fair line closer to 3/4 so some value on FAU we think - and most people love betting on great offensive teams with crappy Ds - we love fading them - just wish we were getting a full TD.....FAU is 2-0H and 0-4A...FAU 21-7 L28 games and 9-3L12 Conf which you may sneeze at but not going to pee into the wind on that trend....People remember their last game they got destroyed by FIU in the Shula Bowl but FIU did get some nice breaks and there was that 2 hr or so delay.....In any event - FAU also gets in our potential ML dog rotation just cannot go full unit on them do not trust that D....Now the total is the story here - we really like the over have a strong lean there - just missed the early number of 66 now up to close to 70....To put that in perspective the W Va/Baylor total is 80....Teams are a combined 8-3 over the number this yr - WK totals so far incl one OT game 90 76 97 63 81....yet FAU D at home over the last few yrs seems to be way stingier even when you account for the competition....Summarize - strong lean over - need to dig further - no play on side but lean FAU.....FAU gets strong consideration for ML dog parlay consideration -

    Have the fair line closer to 3/4 so some value on FAU we think - and most people love betting on great offensive teams with crappy Ds - we love fading them - just wish we were getting a full TD.....FAU is 2-0H and 0-4A...FAU 21-7 L28 games and 9-3L12 Conf which you may sneeze at but not going to pee into the wind on that trend....People remember their last game they got destroyed by FIU in the Shula Bowl but FIU did get some nice breaks and there was that 2 hr or so delay.....In any event - FAU also gets in our potential ML dog rotation just cannot go full unit on them do not trust that D....Now the total is the story here - we really like the over have a strong lean there - just missed the early number of 66 now up to close to 70....To put that in perspective the W Va/Baylor total is 80....Teams are a combined 8-3 over the number this yr - WK totals so far incl one OT game 90 76 97 63 81....yet FAU D at home over the last few yrs seems to be way stingier even when you account for the competition....Summarize - strong lean over - need to dig further - no play on side but lean FAU.....FAU gets strong consideration for ML dog parlay consideration -

    ok guys gonna get ready for the day  will check in later on for sure gonna try and get 8-10 more games done

    got a note to ask if could summarize plays/leans - too hard to do this a lot but will try it sorry the thread gets long and lots of comments but we love it 

    plays
    temple +8  (3% bankroll)

    strong leans (action bets if you want)
    FAU over
    iowa
    purdue

    leans (probably only 54-55% proposition for true action wackos)
    oregon st under
    sooners over

    NOTE- update - no longer interested in any kind of under in the Syracuse game in fact would lean over that hockey-eesque total 


    GL guys !

    MEGA

    Nice work with Texas and the Chips last week Clemson was the right side, but no whiny girl here either....it happens

    Looking for any thoughts on the following leans from the Mega brain trust/ and even meaningless statistical calculation guy:

    GT/UNC over 68.5--this tar heel D can't stop the local Pop Warner cheer leading squad, let alone the option attack from GT and I think they can score enough to help...

    Arkansas+4--this team is still undervalued IMO and I always like a home dog in SEC ( or in this case, a home HOG) Suuuuueeey!

    Cincy-14.5---there is no 'Mustang Pride' to help this SMU program stop sinking like a fat girl in quicksand...

    Washington+21--value guy love this play, just because the huskies seem legit, and the # is inflated by public perception of Ducks team.

    UCLA/CAL over 76---does Cal know they can play 11 players on D?

    Tenn+17 or more....schedule situation let down guy loves homecoming sandwich games like this, and how can the Reb players not be thinking about which Ole Miss hottie they will be taking out after the game?

    Texas---Charlie strong has turned this team around, so I see a confidence builder here against a weak cyclone team.

    LSU--not convinced that UK is ready for prime time in the Bayou...laying less than DD, of course, the crowd will be rocking!

    Notre Dame+.....I want to wait for 14 here, but even 13.5 seems like a lot

    Thanks MEGA

    Not Mega, but 7 is the key number, not 8...I would take it.

    Mega, thanks again for the picks...really sorry about my Clemson Tigers letting you down, brutal losing the QB so early.  I would stay away from them the next few weeks, Stoudt is a 5th year senior but is simply not good throwing the ball outside of WR screens and checkdowns.

    next play

    DIRECTIONAL MICHIGAN PLAY OF THE WEEK 

    E Michigan / UMass over 62.5

    Why ?

    1. UMass 2 home games 41-38 (79) and 47-42 (89) teams combined for over 1300 yds with no OT !  Yes E Michigan in this game but see below......news for Meaningless Stats Add and Divide Guy

    2. UMass allowed 30 pts in all but 1 game

    3. QB 18 TD passes for UMass

    4. Both Ds are pure filth

    5. E Michigan RELEASED the HOUNDS last wk with new QB Reggie Bell Jr - sweetmothermaryjosephandrandomfarmanimals....He passed for 144 and a TD - ran for 202 yds and 3 TDS This included 2 TD runs over 70Y. Opens up offense - other RB and passing game - Whipped Buffalo on the road scored 37 with him last wk.

    GL .....mega



    P.S strong lean E Mich +14.5 but you know our rule for the big plays - only one per game - we think total safer

    It seems on the surface thatmany of you are having trouble coming to terms with how  a team that dragged Texas A&M all over the Alamo Bowl last year could have opened as a neutral field dog (the true open was a pick;  we pros have access to information most of you will never see) to a team that lost at home to Ball State last season?   Duke is what we here at MaineRoad Sports Advisors© call a “Sarah Jessica Parker” – a team that looks good from afar, but looks worse and worse the closer you get.  The Devils are off of deceptive win at Georgia Tech, where they were actually out-statted significantly.  That game was also what we here at MaineRoad Sports Advisors© call a “Wizard of Oz” game – one in which weather turned the whole game upside down.   Duke has one of the lowest yards-per-point numbers in the nation (this is the sort of statistical analysis that we here at MaineRoad Sports Advisors© pride ourselves on), having been far more opportunistic than good.  They also rank 101st in Division 1 (that’s the big Division, where the games have female sideline reporters) against the run, and have played the third-weakest schedule of any top-100 power rating team (ahead of only Georgia Southern and  Akron). 

     

    Virginia, on the other hand, is better than its 4-2 record would suggest.  It badly out-stated BYU and UCLA (back when those teams were good) in its two losses.  We here at MaineRoad Sports Advisors© call this kind of team “Russian Nesting Doll,” as the more you look inside, the more good things you find.  The Cavaliers are #6 against the run, and the Devils have struggled to throw the ball consistently. We here at MaineRoad Sports Advisors© expect Mike London and his crack staff to keep 7 in the box, isolate #1 Duke target Jamison Crowder, and force the oft-erratic Anthony Boone to beat them. That’s an equation we like, which makes UVa our Sarah Jessica Parker Russian Nesting Doll Conference Road Dog Off-a-Bye Week Play of the Month!

    Stay far away from Tennessee brother. Their o & d lines are going to get absolutely dominated. Destroyed. Mauled. I like Ole Miss and the over 47 in this game.....and I dont think Tennessee scores more than 10


    Bloodbath guy and crowd rockin guy will be attending this game....along with Dirty Sanchez who calls for a 52-10 Rebels win

    Tenn+17 or more....schedule situation let down guy loves homecoming sandwich games like this, and how can the Reb players not be thinking about which Ole Miss hottie they will be taking out after the game?
    Notre Dame+.....I want to wait for 14 here, but even 13.5 seems like a lot

    Thanks MEGA
    Stay far away from Tennessee brother. Their o & d lines are going to get absolutely dominated. Destroyed. Mauled. I like Ole Miss and the over 47 in this game.....and I dont think Tennessee scores more than 10


    Bloodbath guy and crowd rockin guy will be attending this game....along with Dirty Sanchez who calls for a 52-10 Rebels win

    Mega,   In post #95 you asked a question ?  I think you are a little nuts!

    I'm solid playing Rutgers +21.5 
    Give me Wash. +21
    NCSt.  +17.5 
    E. Mich.  +16.5


    Those games are sweet nookie. I bet a dollar you put at least one of these on your board.       GL,   Doc
