However, OM will be missing 3 of 4 DL in this game as Hardy (All-Sec) Peria Jerry and Ted Laurent are out.
 
Whoever said they like Ole Miss this year might be a year away.  I think Nutt will be a great move for OM, but they are just too thin at ALL positions.  Memphis returns a solid O Line and if they can find a QB and solid RB, they should be able to move the ball against OM. 
 
Memphis has there Top 8 WR returning from last year and the will be the best in Conf USA (WRs) if they can find a QB. 
 
Stay tuned on this game, but I think you have to take the points as this IS the Memphis Super Bowl.  Coach West has closed practices and he knows he will get the upperhand on Memphis players and the region (vs OM) if he can win this game.
 
Not ready to pull the trigger until I hear more about QB and RB, but a huge lean to catch the points here.  OM will be better but they ZERO depth....and I am not sure what they do on the D-Line.
 
Pimp

 

While I really like Ole Miss this year ... I would not put a nickel on them ..... I see a FG Game

Maybe Memphis pulls the upset ,, but I see Ole Miss winning

 30-27

A couple of games I really like from Double, but I have not heard much about UCLA vs. Tenn??
 
A good friend of mine works in the athletic department at UCLA and has informed me that their OL is terrible.  He told me that they are banged up and worthless.  As I have grown up following SEC football my whole life even though I live in Cali, I am going to JUMP on the Vols and put 10 units on this one.  I feel that Tenn is very underrated and has something to prove last year after the close loss up in NorCal.  Jonathan Crompton looks like a better QB then Ainge and they have a stud RB in Foster.  This game stays close for the first half, but then the Vols dominate the 3rd quarter as their DL and OL wear down the Bruins.  I hate laying road chalk, but this game looks too good to be true.
 
Anyone have thoughts?

Well my thoughts for what its worth is my only question is how much to lay.  I hardly ever lay more than 3 units on a game and right now that's what i have on the Vols but I am debating throwing another unit or two on them. 

Last year they had 11 returning starters and only 5 on Defense.  This year they have 14.  Not that I use PS as a Bible but I do think his rankings are very useful especially as a starting point.  Last year he had the Vols O-line ranked 5th in the SEC and their D backs only 8thin the SEC.  This year the O-line is tops in the SEC and only behind Oklahoma and OSU in the entire country!! And he has their D-backs ranked 15 in the NCAA. Yeah there is the travel and home field, but IMO an experienced team like Tenn is much more capable of overcoming this than some MAC team that is not used to high pressure games.  I think they give the QB all day to work.  I think their D-backs cause all kinds of headaches for an inexperienced UCLA QB especially behind a green O-line.  And I think it will be my big money Cash Money game of the entire weekend.

Good luck to you.

Not a good matchup for the Golden Flashes....
 
BC's D line(both 325 LBS DT's) are going to steamroll Kent's Weak O-Line ....
 
the last 3 years BC has beaten the MAC 134--24
(including 2 Shutouts) 
 
 
I Know I Know , BC lost Matt Ryan(Bust)  good luck getting thrown to the Wolves in Atlanta
 
 
BC is still a 7-5 team or better
 
 
 
Boston College 31    Kent  10 
This line opened at 10.5 just makes me wonder whats up

BOL Brother

 

I really Like Tennessee this year...

I see 9-3/8-4

 

Why hasn't this line gone up ???

 

i see the Juice has moved to -115 or -125

 

But i was thinking it would jump to 7.5/8 or 8.5....

 

I like Team Total under on UCLA... hoping to see  17 or more when the totals are released.......

 

The Back Door could be wide open in this game ....

 

IMO   Tennessee 23-13 

 

BOL Brother on all your wagers

Kent St will be fired up until getting hit in the head a few times by a 6'3' 325 OL or DL from Chestnut Hill
 
KSU could cover if BC offense falls apart and scores only 17-20, Kent won't score a lot they'll need to play a great defensive game to have a shot

ST.JUDE PIRATES SAYS,
have been going back and forth with you guys online for the
past two months.
love the discussions,  and appreciate all the hardwork put in
by Doubleup4life, and the guy who claims to be the greatest,
great info,  a big thank you from me, and the others who
do not, I say thanks for them as well.
as one guy said its about the green.
 
I have been reading, and stockpiling notes from most teams
from the 06-07 season, and capping the OL, DL, and QB's
seem to be the key factors.
I will never, bet with a freshman QB, GA's QB STRAFFORD,
may have spelled it wrong, but he got me against Colorado,
has much improved, but a valuable lesson I got burned.
just food for thought there, watch yourselves when taking
a chance on a freshman QB.
take a look at the power rankings as well, may want to play
the totals, and not the spread on weak teams.
 
Haven't you ask yourself at the end of a betting day,  WTF
was I thinking betting on that garbage team, DO NOT DO IT
THIS SEASON, do not say I did not warn you.
 
like most of the picks, as in who wants to be a millionare,
final picks.
 
100 to win 4000 on a 6 tm parlay
1 FLORIDA
2 BC
3 KANSAS
4 USC
5 WISCONSIN
6 NWESTERN
 
Florida is loaded with talent, and we know that Hawaii lost
a ton of talent, we do not need to be a genuis here.
this team as many others, will be wanting to make a
statement, don't be afraid of the chalk.
if TIEBOW and his crew were gone, and BRENNAN  were
still with Hawaii, with coach we would be on Hawaii,
so FLORIDA it is.
 
BC I will admit they did me in a couple of times last season,
but KENT, if they do not cover this spread I am finished with
the ACC.  The defence alone should score, 2 tds.
Toal and Raji, will feast on Kent.
 
Nwestern I was jumping up and down when I saw this come
out,  QB C.J. BACHER 3600 YDS, all 3 receivers back.
got to love experience.
RB Tyrell Sutton 2900 rushing, Playing sorry SYRA-CUSE.
which won only 2 games last season, bet against this team
on the road.
Syracuse's star receiver GONE, Mike Williams.
Cakewalk.
 
USC, another team that let me down a couple of  times,
but VIRGINIA.
I feel the same about this game as I do FLORIDA-HAWAII.
and have looked at other threads on here, sold on USC
love that they are on the road, giving up only 16 ppg, last season,
Virginia does not have a chance.
Virginia lost starting QB, will be playing Sophmore, only played
8 out of 13 games.
 
WISCONSIN all about Defense, returning 9 starters seniors,
RB PJ HILL, 2800 YDS, a statement game against AKRON.
7-0 at home.
AKRON, lost starting receiver, moved DB and SS to OFFENSE,
Who will play defense ????
going with the statement game.
 
my favorite pick giving all the chalk it can,
KANSAS, fully loaded team, another statement game,
at home against 118th ranked !!!! FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL,
please, should be over at half time.
1-11 and they return 17 starters, the same crew.
traveling to kansas, what a dream come true.
Kansas returns 15 starters 9 on defense,  QB Todd Reesing
3400 yds passing 33 tds last season.  11-1 ATS.
 
your thoughts are appreciated, this is my final answer.
for 4000.
 
ST JUDE PIRATES,
GL TO ALL

Im not betting the game, but if i had to i like Stanford to win this game outright.
 
Why Vandy players arent in the NFL, maybe because they have a career outside the game of football. And they suck every yr bc aside from 3/4 OOC games a year they get beat up in the SEC!
 
A joke betting on Miami here. 19 days will show this... validate your picks with research.
 
 


In Oregon State's last 7 trips to the bay area they are 7-0...haven't lost @furd or @Cal since 1999
