Auburn loses outright.  Ole Miss can shut down their run game.

Luckily I had Mich St, that must have been the worst of the season. With you on Ole Miss and USC

I could honestly see USC, Miss and AF all winning outright.

 

USC has the team defensive speed to contain Oregon.

Utah hasn't played anyone all year.  3 point squeak home win against Pitt is all I see.  Laying more in AF than they did at Iowa State?  Huh?  TCU on deck only helps my case.

Nebraska by 20+

Why not?  Should be around +6000 when it comes out:

 

Nebraska/Usc/Ole Miss/Af ML parlay

The Baylor game was my biggest play of the weekend

 

7 seconds is all we needed   and they couldn't hold on

 

Iowa was my second biggest play of the week

Saturday was a beatdown because of 2 lousy minutes

 

I'm scared now man

                BOL this week, Stuckey. Seems to me that there are three teams in CFB that don't seem to fall into the trap of look ahead and letdowns, and those three teams are the three teams that all have a chance to get screwed this year in the NCG.  I know that Nov 6 one of those teams will be out of the equation, but until then can't see either of those teams losing, out right. Maybe they won't cover, but not lose.  Every year NQ Conf teams have to play every week as if it's their conference championship game, because of lack of respect. That chip on their shoulder's, IMO, keeps them from looking ahead, or behind.  We'll see this week as both Utah and TCU fall into that category, but personally don't see it happening. The rest of your card looks solid, but can't see AF getting it done.  I've been hearing for years that Boise and Utah don't play anyone, but year after year, when they get a chance to prove themselves, they get it done.  Might not even play that game, but no way I'm going against the Utes until Nov 6.   BOL

Not hating, just wandering where this logic comes from? Auburn just got finished rushing for 442 against arguably the best defense in the nation. Saying Ole Miss shuts down Auburn's run game sounds like a Hail Mary shot in the dark IMO.

I've got another 7 for you.  Clemson -7 at Boston College.

BC is dealing with a slew of injuries, losing defensive captains Alex Albright and Wes Davis last week, and the QB Shinskie is questionable again after missing last week due to a concussion.   Albright is the Eagles’ top pass rusher and Davis the starting safety.  I know another defensive guy got hurt last week as well, can't remember the name. 

I'm thinking the line is so low because Clemson is 0-2 on the road, but those losses came in an OT game @ Auburn, and a 5 pt loss @ Chapel Hill.  Even if Shinskie plays, LOVE Clemson to score some points in this one for (what should be) an easy cover.

Kentucky on the road is tough for me, but they should score.

 

Whoever said something about Ole Miss not being able to shut down Auburn, you have an Auburn avatar.  I ignored the same kinds of people with Bama avatars when I said they would lose to SC.  Just watch the game.  And, no I didn't think LSU would shut down Auburn's run game at home.  I'd take Miss's run d over LSU's.  This Miss D shut down Bama's run game (best in country) in Bama (held em to under 100 yards).  Now, their pass D isn't any good, but Auburn won't be able to exploit.  This is also a situational play.  Rebels a confident team coming home after two close losses at Bama and at Arkansas.  Auburn with giants wins at home against LSU and Arkansas.  Let down city.  See Bama at SC.  Rinse repeat.

What has Auburn done on the road this year?  Two road games.

Won at Kentucky by 3.

Won at Miss State by 3.

 

Give me the 7 all day everyday.  Ole Miss outright

take a look at UCLA +9 well now it is +8.5. AZ plays Stanford next and the UCLA disaster at Oregon is fresh in everyone's mind. i took the +9 points with the home dog.

I completely agree about the situational value of Ole Miss. I can tell you know football, just didn't understand a couple of those points. Good Luck this week (Except on Ole Miss). Hope you win the rest

Do you ever look at games that appear to be letdowns but also could be games with confidence boosts? Mizzou this week and last week was wisky.....the week before that South Carolina, who was up by 28 early and then had an epic collapse....

As we all know, the letdown angle is foolproof, so where is the line drawn? I'm just curious what you think?

Good luck Stuck. 

I like AFA with Utah having TCU on deck. 

Nebraska should win by 14-17...very similar to last week's performance, where they basically score on every possession.
