Any thoughts on how UCLA will come out this weekend against Nebraska?


I like them, however Nebraska in Lincoln can be scary.

I'm teasing UCLA.

Just took the following -6.5, three-team teaser:
Kent State at LSU (-31)
Mississippi State at Auburn (0)
Louisville (8) at Kentucky

Serious question to those liking Tennessee...why do you like Tennessee to cover on the road at Oregon? What makes anyone think this game won't be 50-something to something in the teens?


Put this in the thread on the SECr, but figured it probably fits here a little better. I'd love to see it but I don't see any way it happens.

DL: can't get pressure on the qb
LB: slow. Still unsure why everyone talks about AJ Johnson when he consistently gets burnt in coverage and over runs plays.
DB: slow. WKU found alot of success last week with the hitch route. That's WKU, combine that route with Oregon's offense and their speed and that could very quickly(no pun intended) spell disaster for the defense.

Then add in the tremendous lack of depth we have on that side of the ball. And lastly, I'm 100% confident we don't have a player on our roster that can catch Mariotta, much less the mamba if he gets loose...and that's just on defense.

Our great OL couldn't even get a consistent push against WKU in the first half when we needed a solid drive to really drive the nail in. Sure they can pass block for days, but then we're stuck counting on an extremely inaccurate qb. Then add in the lack of depth we have at just about every position. Again, I'd love to see it happen; but I don't see any way we keep it within 35. Their speed and execution will be one thing, but there's going to be some extremely tired kids in orange on the sidelines. I love my alma mater, but I love money alot more. Oregon is the easy play here.

I like this. Idaho should be faded with a vengeance all season long. Possibly the worst team in CFB this year.

What are the thoughts on TCU -3 on the road against Tech??

I like TCU in this spot. I think Boykin is better than Pachall and Devonte Fields will be back right?

This is frustrating. I can't find any other games I really like other than my 2 team teaser. Really trying to stay away from betting just to have action.

Definitely a weird week. Not many games are standing out as of now.

Probably gonna wait to see if the Oregon or Louisville lines drop any (which I doubt they do), and maybe put a couple units on them separately.

Not a fan of TCU -3. I probably won't play it but they looked terrible last weekend against Southeastern Louisiana.

Wouldn't surprise me if Tech won though.

Anybody know of any site that has Odell Beckham Jr listed on their Heisman Trophy candidates? I'd like to put a few dollars on +10,000 odds.

And before people jump on here ripping me for it. One of the sites I use has odds on players that none of us have ever heard of before.

you could say the same about Manziel this season or last season and you can say the same about Jameis Winston after only one game. You never know.

Winston has shot up on the odds tied for 2nd with Mariota, Manziel and Miller at +600. with Bridgewater at +400

Exactly, unless OBJ starts throwing himself the ball, he has no shot.
