Iowa +3.5. They're going to cruise over Iowa State, something like 31-17.

Just did an 8 game parlay. Just went with my gut. Actually tried last week and started 0-3.

Pitt giving 1.5 at UT seems strange to me
Air Force only giving 7 to Navy is too low. I think Navy is in such disarray
Stay away from Iowa Iowa State
Texas giving 6 at Arkansas seems too low look for the line to move up I believe
Michigan giving 6 at home to UW is free money for someone

Minny without Mo and that defense is someone I wouldn’t put money on.


I understand, and it's not something I said I would put money on, but a couple considerations for my mentioned intrigue:

1. Miami (OH) isn't good and last week was just their fourth game since 2019.

2. He's no Mo Ibrahim, but Trey Potts was adequate in relief.

3. Minnesota's best WR, Chris Autman-Bell, didn't play against Ohio State. Pair CAB with Dylan Wright - both of whom are talented 215-pound WRs - versus MAC secondary and I think Tanner Morgan is poised for a big game.

Here are some stats that you can use to decide with Texas @ Arkansas


Sam Pittman teams have never won back to back games (W vs Rice last week)
Arkansas is 5-5 vs Texas last 10 games
Largest win vs Texas in last 10 was 10 points, Texas' largest wil was 30+
Arkansas lost 4 straight until last Saturday, LSU, Alabama, Missouri, Florida


It is standing Room Only crowd in Fayetteville



As far as competition, Texas played better competition last week won by 20 and controlled most of game
Arkansas scored 31 straight but was down 17-7 going into mid 3rd.

Take it for what you will, but think Vegas is giving Texas backers a gift right now.

I always wait for Stanford Steve and the Bear before I lock in. Love the Bears ML teaser at the end of the pod.

Florida -28.5
Notre Dame -16.5
Iowa +4

Purdue -34.5

Is it just me or does 61 seem like a low point total for Liberty-Troy?

This is crazy but Boston College is AT UMASS and is favored by 37 points, yet Nebraska is AT HOME playing Buffalo and is only favored by 13. Man how times have changed.

Anyone have any inputs on NC State -2.5 @ Ms State? I think NC State covers easy, but maybe I’m missing something.

How come no one is mentioning Texas -6 @ Arky? Letdown from last week for the Whorns or is Arky all that daunting this year @ home? ;-)

Not at all but even just 15 years ago Nebraska would be way more of a favorite at home vs. Buffalo… we are talking at least 35.
