Seventy....This is one game that I'm still trying to figure out. The things that concern me about Wake is their history as a favorite. I think they operate much better in the dog role or a single digit line. They haven't been this big of an away favorite since 2005. Last season, every one of their games were single digit lines except the Army game, which was -20. And Wake didn't cover it. There are a few other things about the Wake offense and the strength of the ACC in general that concern me..But I can also say the same about Baylor and a first year coach and new system...Not a great game to play. But I'm going to watch this line and see which way it moves in the next few days. And then decide if I want to play it..
I like teams that force turnovers and score defensive TD's and Wake is one of those teams, kind of like V-TECH. You can bet on these teams week in and week out and your going to be over 50%. Personally, I don't like Wake in this position on the road giving up over 10 in the season opener but I still think they cover.
Wake 24
Baylor 10
Wake 24

big 12 > acc 
but you get a good acc team vs the worst big12
houston coach moves to baylor with a wide open offense and a lot of returning starters on offense. QB and all WRs return from last year
wake returns QB and leading rusher and not much else.
not sure i can lay that many with wake against what could be a decent Baylor offense and expect them to score a lot of points on the road
dont hate it but definitely dont love it

I think the amount of returning starters for Baylor on offense is important here. Playing in Briles wide open offense with nothing to lose. And on national television. It could be a dangerous spot for WF if they can't move the ball early and get a little momentum. I know WF was 9-4 team last season. But it was relative to the conference they played in. I can still remember them losing to a bad 5-7 Nebraska team at home last season. Every game that WF played last year was single digit lined games except Army, where they were favored by 20 at home, and didn't cover. They haven't been this big of a favorite on the road since 2005. With just 5 starters retuirning on offense you have to ask yourself if they have enough to cover on the road against a Baylor offense that will probably throw in a few surprises. Another thing that bothers me about this game. I haven't seen anybody picking Baylor.big 12 > acc

:think2: They return their entire D (great D btw). WR and OL are troubling though. I'm very confident in their D but their O is too shaky right now for that big of a spread.
well some good info and thanks...look forward to more tomorrow
However, all I read is how Wake is giving to many, no one really said how baylor is going to win it, or cover. Just how wake is going to, or going to be hard.
A first year qb, first year head coach...I am all over a better team first game of the season with alittle home field given up.
It is alot of points to give up, I know it.
Many other plays posting tomorrow. pretty pumped good luck to all

All right time to load it up.
top plays for the season will be 20 units....then trickle down from there.
I am a small bank roll due to a wife and kids, however, the most money I have won in weekend is over 30,000.00 and I have also lost over 20,000 twice in a weekend...so I know and feel the pain. But, like I said these days I am much more cool headed and I dont get too crazy with the cash. I am a system player in case you have forgotten since last season,,,, well without further wasting time, plays for the evening and I may add a few before kick off.
15 units
wake fr -11-
5 units
stanford +3
1 unit
south carolina -14-
south carolina under 44-
I will be looking at some o/u at the half.
