YTD: 7-8, - .28 units Pretty close to even so far. Seems like I really underestimated Miami last week.

3* NMSU +1.5 The UNM Program just seems a little like the Oakland A's. Just sad and neglected. this won't feel like much of a home game for them, as Aggie fans will be there in good numbers. NMSU seems to be building a decent program up from nothing while the Lobos are losing all their best players to the portal. The UNM defense was a strength last year, but looks to be decimated now. The do have a legit QB in Dylan Hopkins, but not much more on offense.

3* Illinois +15 This is a game in which many bettors will jump all over PSU. They look great so far destroying Delaware and a weak version of WVU. But under Bret Bielama, Illinois never had a loss of this many points last year, and only 2 his first year when he was rebuilding. New PSU QB looks good, but this is his first game on the road. Just got a feeling the Illini stays in the game, possibly close to an upset. Luke Altmeyer has 2 games under his belt, is a true dual threat, but needs to settle in a bit more. I think he plays well here. Illinois lost a couple key defenders to the NFL, but they are still pretty good on the side.

2* UNC -7 (-120) UNC disappointed last week, narrowly winning a game they should have won by 2-3 TDs. But I don't think their defense is as bad as in past seasons. Not a fan of Mack Brown, but he has recruited well, and they always seem to find great offensive skill players. I like their run game to go with Drake Maye. Plus Minnesota looks just awful offensively. They might be a team that has no decent QBs on the roster. The defense has not been tested yet.

2* Purdue +2.5 (-113) I like their hire of Ryan Walters. Don't think that much of Dino Babers. Syracuse has played a cupcake first 2 games, while Purdue has faced two respectable FBS teams. Walters will figure out something to counter Syracuse QB Shrader, who can be turnover prone. Purdue has some rebuilding to do, but they seem to have a QB and a running game so far.

2* Florida/ Tennessee- under 58.5. The weather should be stormy and wet. Both teams have some good young defensive talent that I think will develop this season into top performers. The Florida QB situation might be a problem, and I'm guessing they'll run a lot. Joe Milton has completed 66% of his passes, but most are short and quick. Hendon Hooker's loss will be felt..along with WRs Hyatt and Tillman. The number just looks high to me.

Good luck ofred. :cheers:

Yeah, been going back and forth on Penn St/Illinois. Above 14 just seems too high for ILL at home.
Took the Over in Cuse/Purdue. Boilermaker offense a surprise to me so far, better than expected.
