[cloverleaf]

5Dimes has come out with some very early (opening week) lines. Take a look:

Ole Miss -8.5 vs Boise State (Atlanta)
Wake Forest -7.5 at Louisiana Monroe
Texas AM at South Carolina -9
LSU -3 vs Wisconsin (Houston)
West Virginia vs Alabama -23.5 (Atlanta)
Oklahoma St. at Florida St. -13.5
Temple at Vanderbilt -21
BYU -14 at UConn
Penn State -1 vs Central Florida (Dublin)
Utah State at Tennessee -6.5
Washington -21.5 at Hawaii
Ohio State -15.5 at Navy
Colorado St. vs Colorado Pick (Denver)
UNLV at Arizona -25.5
Miami at Louisville -3.5
Rice at Notre Dame -21
Bowling Green -6.5 at Western Kentucky
UTSA at Houston -9.5

What do you think men...any of these lines jump out at you? Tennessee -6.5 and Notre Dame -21 look good to me.

Welcome your comments....................

ND -21
Ohio State -15.5

 

[Albatross]

No line on the UGA Clemson game yet. My guess will be UGA -4.5

i think State Penn drills UCF.

miami beats UL outright

 

[Albatross]

LSU Wisky should be a dandy......total has to be low

 

[cloverleaf]

I agree Al, both LSU and Wisconsin should be top-15 teams when the polls come out.

I think 5Dimes got the line right on this one. Best game opening week in my opinion.

 

[cloverleaf]

Also................Miami will beat Louisville like a drum.

Minus 3.5.....should be -14 at least.

My take and welcome yours..................

 

[Insiders]

Oklahoma State catching 13.5 now. By game time this line will cross 14. Whoever has the ball last will win this cpntest High scoreing to say the least here. OSU will be very competive is this opener.

UGA -7. But you've probably seen that by now. I'm thinking around 3.5 by week of.

Poor West Virginia. Got to face Alabama coming off a loss they chewed on all off season. Could get ugly.

Make that two losses..Auburn too.

Didn't care for Louisville 'D" in the spring game. Don't know the QB situation at Miami. Take a wait and see on this one.

I am with you. I think PSU destroys UCF. UM also beats Miami.

What's the QB situation at Louisville?

 

[GoSooners]

I wouldn't touch that game. It's going to be played August 30th in Dublin, Ireland. Strange location for a college game. And you can have even stranger weather there that time of year. Cold, strong winds, fog, jet lag and and what will probably be a weird atmosphere of European soccer fans can be a great equalizer for a bunch of 19 year old kids.

Maybe OLeary heading back to the homeland will show him team the ropes of the Irish....

O'Leary definitely looks like he can drink with the best of them. He should feel right at home there.

What's the QB situation at Louisville?

Will Gardner was 32 for 37 against a banged up Louisville D playing what would be the 2nd string. We'll have to take a wait and see for Louisville QB. If I were to make a prediction, I think he'll be fine.
On Miami, Ryan Williams tore his ACL. They tried to QBs for the starting position; however neither was effective in the spring game.

Naturally I would notice that there's only 1 Pac-12 team on the whole list.

Udub -21.5 vs the Rainbow Warriors in Hawaii. If I recall correctly, Hawaii's defense was terrible last year.

You'd think that Chris Petersen will opt to run it up all over his opponent when he's got the chance. Boise did it 90%+ in its games. They are saying that the Husky's new QB can handle the offense pretty well too.
