Week 4
4-3 +4* Last week.
130 South Carolina -6
I have them winning by DD’s this week. Shane Beamer continues to impress me. Rattler is playing well, completing 71% of his passes. They gave #1 UGA fits last week. Miss State is coming off a blowout loss to LSU and hitting the road for the 1st time this year. Give me the Gamecocks to cover.
423/24 Ohio State/Notre Dame Over 54 4*
Ohio State finally allowed their offense to turn it lose last week as they put up 63 vs WKU. ND with Hartmann has been a very different team this year as they have put up 41 plus in all four games. This offense if far different than the team that lost 26-10 last year. The Over has cashed in 9 of the last 10 Notre Dame games. With them at home I will take the over 54 points.
350 Ball State +7 -120 3*
Georgia Southern beat up on 2 weak teams then travelled to Wisconsin and lost by 21 points. Ball State played Kentucky then UGA, so nothing expected in those 2 games, but then blew out a cupcake. I am looking at the QB’s in this one. Brin for Geo Southern has thrown 5 td’s vs 7 picks, not good. It looks like Semonza will start for Ball State as he had a pretty good game vs UGA. Taking the home points.
382 Vandy +14 3*
This one was tough for me to take as Vandy burns me but… UK is in their 1st road game and their 1St Power 5 game, laying 2 TD’s. Vandy beat them outright last year and are 4-1 ATS the last 5 years. Taking the 2 TD head start.
364 Utah State +7 -120 3*
JMU should be road weary as they are playing in their 3rd straight away from home. They are 3-0 but have allowed 300 plus YPG vs the pass. Hillstead came off the bench last week for Utah State and made the game vs Air Force interesting. He threw for 67% and 3 TD’s, so he should get the start this week. Taking those home points again.
324 Marshall -5 3*
My Hokie friends and family are losing their minds. How do you go from the top team in Virginia and a perennial top 10 team to getting points vs Marshall??? Marshall is 2 and 0 on the year and have won 7 straight going back to LY. I am putting Pry on the Hot Seat as I have heard a lot of load complaints from my friends.
360 Illinois -15 3*
I let this line get away from me, but I still like it. I think Illinois has underperformed a slight bit so far so we get some line value. FAU struggles vs the run and well any Bielema team loves to run the ball. LY FAU allowed over 200 rushing YPG on the road. Taking the Iliini to get their season back on track.
Good luck
