I guessing NC St -6.5. I will take them if it is less than a TD.

Damn Phan! - How early were up up this morning?  U can't wait for pro football or can't wait for the new college lines to come out?  lol 

What Up SHARP !!!!!! I'm easin my way in but here is some food for thought The Wolfpack play very well on Thursday Night Games i expect drama and a fieldgoal win if this doesn't move from 1.5 I will not be messing with it. 4 or better and i like the bearcats ! 1.5 is a suckerspread ! Im not bitting .Oh well either way thats my 2 cents. Good luck I will be in touch !!!

I am not a real big fan of the NFL , I love College game day better. I am taking home dog here. I am very surprise to see Cinci is the favorite.

NC State +1 is my play

Titomagic - good to see you again.. I've been taking it slow the 1st 2 weeks as well.  But not this week.. time to up my bets. 

Phan - I know your like me... college football only!  Just couldn't believe you had already commented on thread at like 6am or so.  lol

Somethings fishy with this line.. gotta look at this more b4 i make a decision. 

Sharp

Line has move to -1.5 NCSTATE.     More thought needed, early lean for the Wolfpack ......

BOLTA 

Wolfpack -1.5

They hung on to win last week in a hostile place vs UCF. This week home on a Thursday night. The crowd will be ready at Carter Finley Stadium.

I think I like Cincy here.. sorry phancard..

first intuition
cinci

NC state seems to be much better then last year. still early in the research. I just hate to switch from first intuition. usually bites me

I think Cincy is a shadow the the Kelley teams of the past few years.  NC St is improved this year.  With 4 of the 5 ACC teams in the top 20 last week falling out and only Miami, who doesn't deserve to still be there hanging in........how good is NC St????  My gut tells me to take the Pack for a small wager....but I don't know.

Think im takin NCST in this one.  Cinci has a new coach who hasn't proven much yet and add to that, Cinci has lost its last 7 ATS. Although Zach Collaros was good last year when replacing Tony Pike, i think his success was more a result from Brian Kelly's play calling. NCST seems to be playing pretty well so far and they should be fired up and confident in this thursday night game.

I look at it this way, one of us is going to be happy.
just feel like home crowd will play a role in this affair.

New coach's first road game for the Bearcats, the odds are stacked against them. NC State  at home on national TV?

I think Phan's got it right with this one. Luckily I saw this thread at 7 am haha.

NC St +1

Cincy last 7 games are 0-7 ATS.  But I think I like 'em.

North Carolina St. - 29                        Cincinnati - 28

Bearcars +1.5                          

Wins over Western Carolina and UCF do not have me sold on the Wolfpack YET. Going with the Big East in a Thursday night dog play.

       

CInncinnatti's new coaching staff is still learning how to win games and heading to play NC State  isn't going to get any easier. After looking inside more on both teams, the Bearcats had major trouble with their offensive line vs Fresneck State allowing 8 sacks. The Packs offensive line needs some work too, but it isn't as bad as the Cats line. If NC State can apply pressure on QB Callaros, they'll open the game up to their advantage. The Cats best WR Hazleton is toast/out for the year. The Wolfpacks D stepped up at UCF and won the game on the road. Wolfpck QB Russell WIlson will give the Bearcats D some fits with his multiple style of play. The key for NC State is to not turn the ball over or allow stupid penalties and give Cincy easy scores on special teams. The short week will affect both teams regardless.  Coaching edge goes to NC State. I like NC State here at least by a TD at home. NC STATE 38-CINCINNATTI 28

NC State 

   This tilt is only for the "action hounds"!  Contest here is a virtual toss-up. NC State has slightly improved. Meanwhile, the Bearcats are a shade of their former selves. Was not impressed with either game they played. There are a lot of intangibles that Cincy might rebound. However, with a new coach, I'm not buying it! With a gun to my head- NC State by 3.

Cinncy way better football team.

If the Bearcats are 0-7 ATS in the last 7 games that should tell you something. The only play in this game is to go with NC State. And playing at home.

what about the due theory (0-7)

lol, very true.. i just like my chances when both of us are on the same side..

My thoughts as well. Neither team impresses.
Any thoughts on an over?
