i like Minnesota + 3 and the Over 37. Minnesota would be 3-0 had they had some competence at QB. both defenses are phenomenal enough to produce points on their own, and both offenses are capable as well. tease minnesota with Green Bay or Denver for a safe play.

Now that the Vikings aren't expected to winis the time to take them. This wil be a battle of two very tough teams and i will take the team with the better running back in that case. Frerotte is better at hittng receivers thatn jackson, so the Vikes get the nod in this game

Both teams have good defenses and pretty weak passing games. The Vikings are better at running and stopping the run. Lendale White is averaging 3 yards a carry he will be hard pressed to average 2 vs. this defense. A big play or 2 by C Johnson is the Titans only chance.

At first glance I like Minny to not only cover here, but to win SU. But the Tennessee D will be in full effect, especially the run D. It has carried them this year so far and will continue to do so ranking in the top 5 D categories (10th in one). Minny relies on Peterson to move the ball down the field and that is NOT going to happen this game. Minnesota's 3rd down conversion % is 31%. Tennessee's opponents 3rd down conversion % is 26%, so we're looking at roughly a 28% 3rd down rate for Minny this game. If you like that number than take Minnesota because you know Minnesota will be in a lot of 3rd down situations. Ferrote is gonna feel some heat and throw 2-3 picks this game. Surprisingly enough, Tennessee has looked pretty good this year. I think Tennessee will BARELY cover in a low scoring smashmouth game.
Minnesota -12 (4 FG's)
Tennessee-17

Tenn and the ponts! The defense may score as much as the offense!
if youre gonna bet, you should pay attention to the line. tenn isnt getting points. and on the other thread, cinci isnt getting points. both are favored.

Low scoring game at LP field. Not sure I am going to make a play on this one or not but Tenn is pretty solid at home, got slammed today in college thus far.

I was looking at the o/u in this match up. At times the odds makers tend to lower the line due in match ups between 2 good defenses. I got mine at 36 which caught my eye pretty quick. It's like traveling back in time with this game with Ferrotte & Collins playing in this game at QB.
Still need to think about the total on this one.
Ferrotte played for my Dolphins at one point and I couldn't wait till he got the F out of MIami. You simply cannot make a complex game plan with Ferrotte behind center. Once he gets pressured to make too many decisions it ends up all down hill from there. The one thing that the Titans have on defense is the ability to create turnovers and this looks like a lousy spot for old Gus to be starting in.
The Titans have a great tandem in White & Johnson and they share the workload well and has been a plus for the Titans. Collins will be in trouble though if he needs to scramble away a lot from this Viking defense as his lack of mobility will surely hurt him in here.
My stats shows in favor of the Titans in this one so..
Titans at the half -3
Aloha and good luck to all
