Wow, what a shitty way to end the week with Miami 2H +1...went from being a solid 6-3 week to 5-4. Luckily there wasn't a game immediately following this because a degenerate special was sure to be dropped.
Thursday:
Oklahoma St -14
I know it's a lot of pts, but I'm not a believer in this Wildcat team. The fact that they got blown out against, practically this same OSU team worries me, but Arizona struggles against good teams and I think we see the same Thursday night in Stillwater.
Friday:
Florida International +4
I like this FIU team and believe they are the better team and this line suggest so, IMO. A Big East team playing at home laying a modest number? FIU is an experienced, battle tested squad who won a share of the Sun Belt last year with Troy who they ended up crushing and they return 16 starters from that team.
Arizona State -7.5
I don't mind laying the extra hook here as I believe this team is DD better than Mizz. I think this is a difficult spot for Mizz who is hitting the road after a short week to play a very good Sun Devil team (8-2-2 ATS LY) who will have a full week to prepare.
Saturday:
Oregon -26.5
Not a good spot for Nevada here. First game of the season adjusting to life without Nevada's greatest player on the road against an angry Oregon team who I'm sure is eager to get back out there and redeem themselves.
UNLV +14
This line seems to be a joke...I can't believe WSU is laying DD. This is a team that was favored once in the past 3 seasons and that was last year....a game they lost SU as 7.5 pt faves. What they did last week to Idaho State does not merit this respect especially with their starting QB out. Idaho State is a 1-AA school that has won 2 games in their last 36 and they get blown out by fellow 1-AA schools. I wouldn't be surprised if UNLV wins this game.
Hawaii+6.5
I'll lock this in before kick off as this line has spiked from an opening of +3 to +6.5, which is causing me to scratch my head, but I'll bite. UW struggled to move the ball last week and they allowed a shit load of passing yards, and Hawaii is one of the best at moving the ball through air. I'll post +6.5 for record purposes.
Ball State +20
This is a lot of pts for a team that doesn't score many pts in USF. Also, both teams like to run the ball which should shorten the game, putting pts at a real premium. Also, I know Ball State had a big win but what about the SU win as a DD favorite by USF. I think this has let down written all over it. I'll take my chances.
Notre Dame-3.5
Probably my favorite play of the week. The perception of these two teams couldn't be more polarizing than it is now. Bottom line, last weeks results are not indicative of how bad ND is and how good Michigan is. ND dominated that game statistically but had 5 TO and still only lost by three pts. I look for them to clean up in that area. As for Michigan, that game was a lot closer than the final score would indicate....the result of two defensive TD's opened this up. And let's not forget Robinson's monster game last season...I think ND is up for the test and will take on this challenge to prove they can at least contain him....let's also not forget last year was Robinson second ever game and he took college football by surprise...they know what he is about now so there is no sneaking up now.
Oh yeah, fuck you Morris and whoever that receiver was that though he was playing two hand touch as Chism returned that int. for a TD.
Good luck this week everyone.
