Toledo +20

I just can't understand this. Have you guys watched a Boise State game in, oh the last 4 years?!?

20 is a lot to cover on the road and Toledo has some athletes. They werent run off the field against much greater competition in OSU.
Boise also might be a bit full of themselves after their big win at UGA.

Virginia Tech -24
Boise-20

Wisconsin -17


and the big one...

Virginia Tech-24
Michigan-29
Houston-7
Nevada-6
Oklahoma State-13.5
Arkansas-23
Wisconsin-17

the two 4 teams both pay around $72, and the 7 team pays about $550

that would be a wonderful ROI

I onced dicked around with a 12-team football underdog money line parlay.

$36 returned something like $10 mil.

you could retire and live off the interest on that

I'm pretty sure if I did that on BetUS they'd find me in a ditch on the east side of Houston on Sunday morning.

I assume Iowa State was looking ahead to the Iowa game when they beat Northern Iowa 20-19 in Week 1?

i would say that combined with being young in the skilled positions on offense.. takes a couple of games to get settled in
here is some info

Steele Jantz (great name) had his coming out party last weekend against Iowa. Jantz threw four touchdown passes without throwing an interception. Six different Iowa State players had at least three receptions in last week’s win. The Cyclones offense is young, but they do have some talent to work with. Shontrell Johnson is a solid tailback who should get better as the season moves along. While they don’t usually get much attention, it should be mentioned that Iowa State has a tremendous punter. Kirby Van Der Kamp is averaging 51.3 yards per punt so far this season.
The Iowa State defense appears to be much better than they were in 2010. The defensive front still could use a little bit of work, but the secondary has been very good so far this season. Paul Rhodes is a defensive-minded coach, and I expect this unit to be pretty good this year.
The UConn Huskies have some real problems on the offensive side of the ball this year. Jordan Todman was a beast in the backfield for this team, but he is in the NFL now. The team couldn’t find a quality quarterback last year, and they still haven’t found one yet this year. Johnny McEntee has seen the majority of the playing time under center, but he has thrown three interceptions and zero touchdowns. Vanderbilt’s defense isn’t bad, but there is no excuse for the Huskies only picking up 193 yards of total offense last week. Lyle McCombs appears to be a solid runner, but the team must establish some form of a passing game.

The Huskies should be able to keep them in most games this year. UConn scored two touchdowns last weekend, and they were both defensive scores. The defensive front for UConn is one of the biggest in the Big East, and they shouldn’t be pushed around by many people this year. If UConn is going to be competitive, the defense will need to be very good.

*in bold - no fricking offensive TD's against Vandy!!
game should stay close

I like Michigan State +5.5. ND turns the ball over and when was the last time Sparty lost by 5pts or more against the Irish??
