Bet those early lines if you like jumping on them before significant movement.

CFB Weekly Lines

Finished 6-5 last week and lost a small ML parlay. Ended up even for the week.

Through Week 2: 13-8 +10.67U

Leans for Week 3:

Michigan
BYU
Washington St
SMU
Pittsburgh
Clemson
Fresno St

Michigan completely called off the dogs like LSU last weekend and let Hawaii stay within the -52. UCONN was rolled by Syracuse last weekend by 34. The jury is out on Utah State (who UCONN appeared to play tough in W1) but they (USU) were throttled last week by Weber State 35-7. So UCONN’s potential babysteps in W1 was more like a crawl. Another big number for the Wolverines around -46.5

BYU managed to knock off Baylor, despite their two best WR being out last week. Staying on this explosive BYU offense with the Cougs catching 3.5. They can be this year’s Cincinnati and make the playoffs.

Washington State was a play last week vs Wisconsin at +17.5 and won SU. Facing a terrible Colorado State team who got down 27-0 vs MTSU last week at home and lost 34-19; and this was after new FBS team James Madison rolled MTSU by 37 in W1. Wazzu currently around -16.5 today.

Strictly a numbers play for SMU. I like them + the points vs Maryland. +3.5

Pittsburgh went to OT vs Tennessee despite their starting QB going out in the 2nd half. He should be back vs WMU. Pitt currently at -10.5 or so.

Clemson D is stifling and should hold Tech to single digits. Ukelele is looking better at QB. Line around -32.5. La Tech was rolled by Mizzou in W1 who was just rolled by KState. Fools gold with Mizzou after W1. They suck and by transitive properties, Tech sucks much worse.

Fresno State has a offense that can score points and this is the kind of game that USC struggles with when they think they are over the hump. Line at +12.5. Hoping this climbs to 14.5 or more before KO.

24-11 YTD. Up 13.15 units.

Air Force -17 against Wyoming and Auburn as a home dog against Penn St looks interesting.

Air Force is likely going to be favored in every game they'll play the rest of the year. It'll be interesting to see if they can get it done

I know Nevada is bad, but should Iowa be favored by over 20 points against anyone right now?

Got burned by Bama but other than that had a decent weekend. So far took Miami moneyline +168 and USC -12.5 at -110. Not sure what else to pick for this week.

Fresno State ML. USC defense is terrible

Rice and Stanford had a combined like 8 red zone turnovers

I think I'm seeing things. OU is opened as a 3 point favorite versus Nebraska?

I think that spread is too large for Clemson-Tech.

Michigan -46.5
BYU +3.5
Washington St -16.5
SMU +3.5
Pittsburgh -10
Clemson -33

Locked in those 6 earlier this week. Still waiting on Fresno; it moved up to +13.5 and back down to +12.5.

All of favs since have climbed higher and SMU is down to +2.5.

I do not think that is to many points. Week one they lost to bad Missouri team by 28. Tech will struggle to score it will depend on how much Clemson wants to run its offense to work on things with Wake Forests coming up. Heck the back QB is better than DJ if he gets in the game for extended time so not to worry about that either. I have not played it yet but I think I am talking myself into it.

Game 1 Latech with coaches who’d never had a game with their players vs Game 3 where they are more settled in and have an idea what they are working with. Game 1 Starting QB is different than Game 2 & Game 3 as well. I don’t think game 1 gives you enough to go off of, especially with how the Game 1 QB had tipped passes that gave Missouri the ball 3 times for a fairly short field/pick 6.

Considering Clemson-GT (a very bad GT) ended 41-10, and Clemson-Furman only ended 35-12.

Im not advocating for a win here. 33 seems like a lot.

Mizzou is horrible. I watched the game, Tech was moving the ball ok, but kept shooting themselves in the foot to end drives, but you don't have near enough info from the second qb to have an opinion. He hit a long TD, but that was really about it.

Im not taking anything from the SFA game, it's fcs.

Clemson's defense is nasty and that Tech defense isn't very good, not nearly good enough to make me think DJ is going to be scared.

Im staying away because I think Clemson may get up 24-0 and park the bus and not cover, but Clemson can absolutely run up way more than a 33 point victory if they want to.

And FYI, if you are going to use transitive property to bet college football, just flush your money down the toilet, it'll be a quicker death
