Tech, at home after a bye week. We already do great ATS. I think we easily cover this. I'm laying down lots of cash.

Great week this week.


Kentucky should be a solid bet

Lots of people will be sucked into this when it's really a good match-up for LSU.

I think FSU kills them but I'm scared to put money on it.

Vegas has no respect for ND. Hilarious.

Id say this is the most likely scenario, with ND winning and/or covering probably not happening.

ND is extremely young (20/22 starters coming back next year) and most of these guys have never been in a game of this magnitude, especially on the road..at night.

Kelly is a much better coach tho, so there's that.

I think FSU wins big too. This is their one chance to beat a team worth a damn, and they're feeling disrespected after losing the #1 spot. Much easier to get up for Notre Dame than it was for NC State.

LSU O Line should maul. Towles will probably have to throw it 40 times and will make some mistakes. I think this is one that snowballs out of hand in the second half.

I threw LSU in an open leg for a 7pt teaser...-2.5 at home seems like a decent bet

Washington at +21 would be my bet if I were a betting man. Their pass rush is great.

Looking at Vegasinsider future odds. Florida is getting 1000/1 odds. Seems ridiculous to me. I'm thinking about putting 20 dollars on that. I mean, as far as I can tell, they control their own destiny.

They'll be favored over Missou and South Carolina at home as well as Vandy and E Kentucky of course. One would think they'd be ~8 point underdogs in Jacksonville and ~20 point underdogs in Tallahassee, but if Jameis is hurt or suspended and Gators are playing for a trip to the championship, who knows?

If they go to the championship game they might be able to get one of the Mississippi schools and not be terribly big underdogs. And that point, I could start hedging the bet if they made it that far.

Obviously, its not likely, but 1000/1 seems like too much. Is anybody else seeing that line?

You're joking right

Michigan state favored to win it all
I know it's because of an easy schedule to get to the playoffs but damn that seems a bit ridiculous
