Logan's Week Two Football

[logan1981]

Thursday Night Plays:

Clem + 5.5 / Only if Spiller plays. I look for GT to be looking a bit ahead to the Miami game the next week. Both teams played a pretty meaningless game last week and both return most of their starters from the previous year. Clemson held Gt to their lowest run total and ypc of the year in last years contest. Clemson returns those same front seven and they don't have the BS distractions of the HC quiting (with a gun to his head).


Pitt - 6 / The steelers just keep getting better. They replaced no one from last year and have some revenge to pay back. Tenn beat them in one of the biggest games of last year 31 - 14 in Tenn. It was the deciding factor for Home field advantage in the playoffs. Without Haynesworth I see Pitt having a much easier time with the running game. I just don't see Tenn running the ball the way they did last year at Heinz Field.

Fridays Play:

Col - 3.5 / If Hawkins doesn't have these guys up for this game and doesn't get a big win in Toledo they shouldn't allow him back on the plane. Fire him and leave him there. Toledo gave up 52 to Purdue last week and Colorado should have just as much success. Colorado disappointed us all with a home loss to CSU last week. They fought hard in the second half but To's kept them from the come back.

also a lean on the over of 54

Regarding your Colorado play, I have 2 questions. #1 What is your score forecast? #2 Do you think it would be wise to buy it down a 1/2 point to -3 in the event of close game?

Not thrilled myself about this game and will likely pass on it, but I wish you good luck! :toast:

I have it at 38 - 20. I didn't buy any points tonight. I feel in the long run it just cost more than the reward.

Saturday Plays:

Penn St - 28 / PST cruised to an early and easy 31 - 0 lead against Akron before calling off the troops. SYR had a good effort against Minny but ran out of steam late and lost in OT. PST plays 4 qts this week and gets the big win by 30 plus.

Kansas St - 6.5 / Welcome back coach Snyder. KST struggled in week one so we get (IMO) a really good number here. ULL only 1 - 21 vs the big 12.

Vandy + 14.5 / Vandy has continued to improve and have had early season (ATS) success the last few years. LSU although having a great program has struggled ATS at home for a couple of years now and didn't look very impressive last week. I look for Vandy to keep it close.

Central Mich + 14.5 / I played C Mich last week and they stayed within the cover without scoring a TD. This week they don't have to travel across the country and look to get the offense fired up against a much weaker defensive team in Mich St.

Iowa St + 6 / Iowa St always gives Iowa a tough time, winning 9 of the last 10 ATS. Chizik left a fair amount of talent behind at Iowa St for the new staff. Also Iowa loses their starting RB for the season.

Spot on analysis on last night's game, but unfortunately I think Hawkins was allowed back on the plane! hno:

Yeh I don't see him making it through the year. They should have left both of the hawkins in toledo. I was half right as col did put up 38 points.
