odds are out for Week6...........dang....week 6 already......going to be bowl season soon.....:blackeye:
outside of 4-5 marquee games, this has to be one of the ****tiest weekends for actually just watching games.

some initial thoughts:
how in the world is OSU -6 at Purdue. Granted Purdue hasn't come close to playing anyone decent, but i just think that they have a good enough offense to compete with what is a very very good OSU defense. I think this game is a lower scoring game played in the low to mid 20's. i told BB all week if PUR opened +4 or more i was all over them. most likely will be. only thing that worries me is we really have no idea how good Purdue is with games vs. Minnesota, Notre Dame, Central Michigan, Toledo, and some 1-AA team.
PSU -7 is interesting considering neither team may score. easily one of the worst and most unwatchable games of the day
KST-3 is gold, IMO, UNLESS they are flat off the Texas win. KAN has been beating up on just awful teams. I think they will be exposed in this game vs. a KST team that has a lot of speed. I think this line is a product of KAN being undefeated and -3 is a gift.
UCLA -21 is interesting. UND won't run the ball at all vs. UCLA, but UCLA never plays a 60 minute football game and i wouldn't be surprised to see ND maybe sneak in the back door here. But UCLA does play very well at the Rose Bowl. Probably leave it alone but it is interesting to see UND open a 2nd consecutive week as a 21 point dog.
FLA +8.....FLA was flat and not very physical vs. Auburn last game for probably 3/4 of that game. Interesting line. Not sure what i am doing with it if anything but i expected it to open less than a TD. Wondering if the line is inflated due to either (a) public perception after FLA lost at home or (b) oddsmaker just doesn't think FLA is all that this year.
USC -37 1/2................this may get ugly and quickly. I am most likely on USC 1H after Harbaugh's offseason comments and how poorly USC played at Washington. I wouldn't be surprised if this was 21-0 at the end of the 1Q. Stanford has injuries and they are just an awful team.
OKLA -10.......didn't expect to see DD here, but TEX really isn't very good IMO. I think that OKLA is the more likely team to bounce back in this one. Not sure if i want to lay 10 but i sure don't want TEX the way they are playing.
