re: OFFICIAL Week 1 CFB Bet Thread™

Oregon could reach the over on this game by themselves. Arky State is getting credited for 3 returning starters on defense by Phil (their fanbase is trying to tell that there are more that were partial starters). The last time Oregon played a mid-major with holes on their defense was Nevada and we scored 69. The scary thing is our depth is even better.

Im still trying to figure out exactly which games im taking but i will be taking Oregon Over and ND/Navy under. Any consensus on San Jose St vs Stanford? Im kinda leaning towards the points for the sole fact that Stanford has lost so much

Ok youve talked me off the ledge lol. Guess ill have to wait till saturday cause im staying away from the rest of the games before that

Even though Sparty is starting a new QB, and their WRs are extremely young.

Yes, but they do have a TE named Dion Sims (6'5, 280) who may emerge as a star. Their new QB Maxwell is a very smart kid and all he has to do is not make any mistakes. The veteran line should be able to control the game against that inexperienced D-line of Boise. Some people even consider RB Le'Veon Bell to be a dark-horse Heisman contender.

I find it alarming that Boise still hasn't named Southwick (only 185 lbs) the starter yet. He is being pushed by a frosh named Patti. Regardless, I'll be looking for William Gholston to rape whoever is back there at QB.

Needless to say, at -7 this will be my biggest play week 1 by far.

I think my two plays will be N.C. State and Boise State plus the points.

I need to get online with my betting though. The bookie I go through only allows me to bet a few hours before gametime. That really sucks because I would like to get in on opening lines. He does this because he almost got shut down a while back and now tries like hell to keep everything close to the vest. Hell, he doesn't even use texts or emails, ONLY FAXES! It sucks, but he is the only one I have found around here.

Im really liking clemson

Personally I don't want any part of that game. There are too many new lineman on offense and defense for both teams. I put a lot of emphasis on the line of scrimmage in games in the +/-3 spread range and I just don't know who has the advantage there. Clemson has QB advantage, Aub will have more fans there, skill position is maybe Clemson lean maybe push. I'll pass on this.

ETA: What's the UO/stAte over and line? That has me intrigued.

After looking at the ND/Navy game total that seems like under for sure. Almost makes me think what am I missing for that total to be 61

I'm sorry, who is this?

@somoneysports or something like like might be some _'s in there

ND beat navy 56-14 last year (total 70).

ND rarely had to pass last year and scored 7 Rushing TDs vs Navy. ND also has gotten better along the oline, while Navy has gotten considerably worse along both units.

Vegas is projecting a 39-22 final.
