I'm not buying the Bob Stoops kool aid. No one was talking about them until they beat Bama.

Another play I love is the under in the Bama/WVU game. Bama will shut WVU down, and I think that the WVU defense will be vastly improved from a year ago.

ITS FINALLY HERE! been waiting for this thread for 2 months. Damn work has TD blocked so I am just now joining the party.

BTW, first play of the year Wake Forest/ULM U46 (should be good to 45) IMO

Where are you getting 1st half lines already?

I haven't seen anybody mention Baylor -34, I think it's the best line on the board. They're really good at home and SMU lost a lot off a bad team from last year. I'll probably just play the first half line.

Also like the over in Rutgers/Wazzou. Rutgers pass D is terrible and that's all Wazzou does, and their D sucks as well.

I'm on Baylor -33. I will be playing the first half of this game whenever it is posted.

Just making a guess on Florida.

21 seems about right on 35 total

Agree with this. Auburn defense shouldn't be that great. Nick has to sit at the beginning. I even give arky a small chance to win straight up if they get their backs going and start quick. 21 seems way too high of a number.

Braxton Miller season in doubt due to shoulder injury. Unsure of extent of injury at this time. Was the same shoulder he had surgery on

I'm not betting the LSU game, but curious how yall think we will do against the spread. I have slacked in my preseason team research so I don't know much about LSU expectations, and even less about Wisky

If the OSU win total drops upon re-release, I'm hitting it. Haven't set in any games or win totals yet.

My take on Wisco is that they are team that is familiar with winning. Obviously their ground game is very good.

They very rarely get blown out, and I think they are coming into this game expecting a close game with a chance to win.

I think it should be more like LSU -2 or 2.5, so I'll take the over the key number of 3 with Wisco.

I like them more in teaser because they simply don't lose by very many points when they do drop a game.

The QB is the most suspect on the team as you would know and expect. I think our D will be vastly improved from last year and will actually be able to make plays and get off the field. We have the ability to shut down Wiskys run game which would allow us to control the game. Wisky is very thin on defense only returning 2 starters I believe. We shouldnt have any trouble running the ball and controlling the game. And with that should make it much easier on the passing game. Im sure Cameron will have a good gameplan for the O. I think we win by no less than 10

Line was at -4 yesterday. Anyone think it could drop within the next two weeks?

If I'm not mistaken, it opened at -6.5. Could be some value there.

LSU game reminds me of the TCU game last year

LSU should be better, and Wisconsin can hang around and threaten to cover like TCU did last year, but I expect LSU to get a late TD to cover the spread.

You will sweat LSU -4 if you play it though

LSU's record under Miles against non-conference opponents and in season openers is justification enough for throwing down on LSU.

Joel Stave the QB for Wiskey is a pretty awkward dude and is good for a few turnovers. I'm not crazy about laying the points though. ML parlay with Ole Miss is the way to go.

OSU win total remains at 10.5 with heavy odds flipping from the over to the under. I'm staying away at 10.5

Good to see all my degenerate internet friends in the same place again.


I've missed you guys






EDIT:

Is anybody interested in a handicapper contest involving 10-15 of the well known regulars in this thread? $50 or $100 entry you pick any 6 college games of the week ATS for a full season? It would be a lot of fun I know we have some strong opinions among us.
