10/6/2018 (26-29-2, -8.20 with two Friday night games pending)

North Carolina State Wolfpack -6 (-110), 1 unit: This number tells me Dillon isn’t playing. Eagles have played one prolific offense like the Wolfpack and got destroyed.

Virginia Tech Hokies +7 (-110), 1 unit: Book still has not been in an environment like this. Night game. Lane Stadium. Getting points. Yes, please.

Northwestern Wildcats +10 (-110), 1 unit: I’ve seen nothing from the Spartans that tells me they should be favored by double digits over anyone. Wildcats can do just enough to stay inside the number especially with MSU missing their leading WR.

Vanderbilt Commodores +26.5 (-110), 1 unit: Bulldogs D just hasn’t looked as dominant as I thought they would. Commodores can put up points and Georgia has a game at LSU next week.

Mississippi State Bulldogs +3.5 (-110), 1 unit: First road game of the year for the Tigers. If anyone can figure out the problems with the Bulldogs offense it is Moorhead. Plus, with MSU losing two in a row this number should be 6-7.

Texas Longhorns +7 (-110), 1 unit: Tom Herman getting points in the Red River Rivalry against that D? Ok.

Michigan State Spartans -10 (-110), 1 unit: Getting out of my NW play. Too many injuries on D for the Wildcats.

GL today OTH

Thanks HM

Texas A&M Aggies -5.5 (-110), 1 unit: Wildcats haven’t faced an O like this or an environment like this. Aggies will make Kentucky beat them with the pass and I don’t think they can do it.

Thanks indy and Lex...appreciate it!

10/12/2018 (32-33-2, -6.60)

Tulsa Golden Hurricane +7.5 (-110), 1 unit: Bulls are the least impressive undefeated team in CFB. First road game last week now they have to travel again on a short week. Golden Hurricane aren’t great but they get a national TV game at home. They played Texas and Houston relatively tough and I think that continues tonight.

10/13/2018 (32-33-2, -6.60...with one Friday night game pending)

Boston College Eagles -13 (-110), 1 unit: This is simply a play against the Cardinals. They’ve given up on the season. Now an early start against a good Eagles team. I hate laying DD but this is the spot.

Virginia Cavaliers +7 (-110), 1 unit: Tough spot for the Canes. Huge comeback against FSU and now going on the road against a team coming off a bye. Cavaliers should be able to control Miami enough to stay in this one in front of a fired up home crowd.

Duke Blue Devils (+120), 1 unit: Didn’t want to buy to 3 but hate having 2.5 so.....Blue Devils have seen and contained the option once this year against Army. Coming off a bye against an overrated Yellow Jackets team due to their win against a bad Louisville squad.

Wisconsin Badgers +10 (-110), 1 unit: I don’t know that this is the right side but if I can get Chryst and double digits against Harbaugh I’ll take it every time.

Indiana Hoosiers +4.5 (-110), 1 unit: The Hoosiers are quietly putting together a very nice season for themselves. They always give the Hawkeyes trouble and with a beaten up Iowa team having to travel back to back weeks for an early start I’ll take the points at home.

Baylor Bears +14 (-110), 1 unit: Tom Herman as an underdog? Awesome. Tom Herman as a DD favorite? The exact opposite. Bears can throw it around and score enough in this letdown spot for the Longhorns.

Vanderbilt Commodores +7.5 (-110), 1 unit: Tough spot for the Gators coming off a huge win at home and now having an early game in Nashville. Commodores can put points on the board and every year they play one or two SEC opponents really tough when you don’t think they can. This is that week.

LSU Tigers +7.5 (-110), 1 unit: The game in the Swamp was closer than the score. The yardage was equal in that game it was turnovers that did the Tigers in. To beat the Bulldogs you have to be willing to leave your corners on an island. LSU can do that. Georgia is damn good but their D has seemed slightly off to me. In their first tough road test I think it may bite them this week and I’ll take more than a TD with a tested Tigers team.

Hawaii Rainbow Warriors +11 (-110), 1 unit: Cougars still living off their upset of a flawed Wisconsin team. Rainbow Warriors can certainly score and I’ll absolutely take double digits against the limited BYU offense.

Good luck this week

Hop...….get'em this week buddy...….indy

Thanks Jaba and indy. Appreciate it.

Oregon Ducks +3.5 (-110), 1 unit

10/20/2018 (39-37-2, -3.80)

North Carolina State Wolfpack +17.5 (-110), 1 unit: Tigers have an unbelievable D. They don’t have their O figured out yet. Too many points.

Kentucky Wildcats -12.5 (-110), 1 unit: Commodores just can’t get out of their own way in SEC play. Wildcats are a play from being undefeated and I expect them to be very focused against a Vandy team that has to be demoralized after last week.

East Carolina Pirates +21.5 (-110), 1 unit: QB change gives the Pirates another dimension. Knights are great on O but susceptible on D. Let down spot for UCF after last week’s huge comeback.

Marshall Thundering Herd +3 (-115), 1 unit: Thundering Herd have two losses, a very good NC State team and a game they really had in control at MTSU. Getting the better D and points, at home against an FAU team that has been beaten handily any time they’ve played decent competition.

Purdue Boilermakers +12.5 (-110), 1 unit: Buckeyes don’t have a dominant enough D to give this many on the road. Inferior teams have hung around against them all year and with the Boilermakers offense able to score quickly and from anywhere this is too many points.

Indiana Hoosiers +14.5 (-110), 1 unit: For some reason I still believe in this Hoosiers team. The Nittany Lions are going to score and the Hoosiers can match them. Too many points to give in a game where neither team can stop the other. Let down spot for Penn State after their goals were crushed last week by MSU.

Washington State Cougars -3 (-110), 1 unit: Ducks have played 3 tough games in a row and now they got to Pullman to face a Cougars team off a bye. Oregon is beaten up on the O Line and is going to struggle in only their second road game of the year. Just a bad spot for the Ducks.

Nebraska Cornhuskers -4 (-110), 2 units: Cornhuskers O is clicking. Their D.....uh.....anyway if there is one team that does not have the weapons to take advantage of the Nebraska D it’s the Golden Gophers. Frost gets his first win.

Mississippi State Bulldogs +7 (-120), 1 unit: Every time the Tigers have won a big game this year they’ve been lethargic in their next game. In a defensive battle and a let down spot I’ll take the TD with the team coming off a bye that had some time off to work on their offense.

Teaser: Michigan Wolverines PK/Utah Utes PK (-110), 1 unit

Thanks Java, genius and indy....appreciate you reading and the words of encouragement.

10/25/2018 (45-41-2, -1.30)

Baylor Bears +14 (-110), 1 unit: Both teams are going to move the ball and score points. The Mountaineers through the air and the Bears on the ground. Any time WVU has faced a remotely decent team they’ve struggled. Baylor is trending in the right direction and with West Virginia’s playoff hopes likely dashed I expect this one to be close and the backdoor to be open all night.

No time for write ups this weekend. If you have a question about why I like a certain side please ask and I’ll do my best to answer (this implies that anyone is reading this crap).
