I might make my own featured pick of the week. 425's This Team's Less Shitty Than The Other Team - 425TTLSTTOT UTSA -6 against Idaho UTSA can at least put up points (30 ppg). Idaho can't put up points (15 ppg).

USC -3 looks so easy. I want to go huge on this game even though SC has f'ed me over so many times already this year. They beat UCLA by 50 last year. Tenn +4 BYU -3 Wake +24 Stanford +21.5 Northwestern +6.5 I like these alot!

Stanford is no pushover. They have a good defense and are well coached. I'm not sure Oregon will be able to stop Stanford's run game.

Biggest bet of the year?
Yes sir. Cal ran on Oregon for 6.0 yards a carry. USC had over 5 yards a carry. Stanford is the best defense and rushing offense Oregon has played all year. I look for Stanford to *attempt* to control the clock with their ground game behind Taylor. Hogan is also a dual threat QB and he should help the rushing attack as long as he doesnt turn the ball over. My hard numbers are 37-23 so I see a lot of value in the +22.5.

Okay, allow me to rephrase. ND rarely covers large spreads against much weaker teams. BC didn't belong on the same field as ND. Pitt is atrocious BYU is good, but only 3 point victory? The past 5 games, they have had 1 decisive ATS victory and that was OU. ND seems to be jeckle & hide in terms of covering.

It is probably not a good idea to bet them. Are they 24 points better than Wake? Of course, but who knows what offense will show up. Wake is the worst offensive team ND will face all year though which is why the line is so high. One of NDs best WRs is out for the year with a broken clavicle so if you are leaning towards Wake then that might the ammo you need to make your decision.

I agree that ND as a team is more than 24 points better than Wake...but its whether or now that offense will show up and prove it. I'll probably lay off of this one

There sure are some shitty SEC games this week. I might put some money on Western Carolina, Sam, Jax St, Ga Southern, Wofford... Thought is that in late season rentawins, they lay off the gas sooner in September, and those teams could cover 45 or so points.
