    I watched San Jose State play at Stanford last season....a team very similar to Hawaii,...they threw the ball all over the lot, and should've won straight up...The Tree won on about the last play of the game...I have my doubts that Stanford can stop the Rainbow Warriors.

    TCU is running a pro type offense this year instead of Briles' spread, which Slick Billy should be able to scheme against.  Nice to have Petrino running the O for the 'heels.

    "Hey Virginia, your slip is showing!"....the Cavs fit into a pretty good indicator, so I'm taking them despite their underwear faux pas. 

    Plays:

    1)  Virginia -4

    2)  North Carolina +7'

    3)  Hawaii +3'

    Next week....pretty sure I'll be on the Colorado Buffalos and the Baylor Bears as bad teams from the year before tend to do well first game or two as small dogs.

    CU had opportunities to get a big early lead in last year's game.  With all the personnel changes and CU finally getting better coaching.  I expect them to be great dogs. 

     

    If Hawaii continues last season they should be good but I found 9 win dogs not as good as your colorado.  

     

    Might check out UNLV as when they are favorites im not sure they play teams like Memphis very well.  Memphis may not be as good as other seasons but I still think UNLV is a bit pricey.

    @Indigo999

     Unlv and Haw are going to face more difficult lines.

     

    HAW with an elevated record last season and UNLV has been elite ATS a few seasons running. 

     

    My observations the last few years was on full display yesterday

     

    I will Stay away from the elite favorites that execute on all cylinders and fade the teams that look elite but have holes and issues.

     

    USC and FL St both do not deserve these big lines, while other teams will beat these bad dogs big. Ill be looking for dogs playing the lesser executing favorites.

     

    Michigan, Oklahoma, Texas, and a few others are possibles. 

     

    Ill be looking to see what's with SMU as well. After making the playoff in 2024 they could be ripe for regression.  Maybe the same for Clemson and LSU.  Ill be looking for opportunities against TCU this season but after their bad performance will wait until they elevate. 

     

    I will probably be passi g on Frez/USC next week because Fresnos ATS numbers do not look so healthy.  Week 2 will have lots of opportunities but week 3 will be much more limited.

     

    Pretty soon your military dog teams will be in action. 

     

    I like Colorado and will be playing them too

     

    Best Wishes

    Fading favorites next dog does work in college but one must avoid teams with shown power.  B10 and SEC from.the query stand out.  There are only so many high quality teams in those conferences.  Plenty of opportunities to fade bad over lined  teams.  

     

    Lines must be above -3 but the premise is also to fade a bad team with a line closer to 0.  Too high a line the opponent can't play
