A little bit about each game on a card I don't love.
WVU/UConn Under 45 3 Units
I expect both teams to run the ball a lot and their offensive shortfalls should stop some drives. The only concern is Uconn turning it over for easy TD's. But based on the line I think it will be close and I don't think either team breaks 24.
Nebraska -7' 3 Units
I think Nebraska comes to play and they have been explosive when that is the case. I don't think Missouri can slow Martinez and I think Nebraska makes Missouri one dimensional and in a game where there won't be big spaces to throw I think Missouri really struggles to move the ball. I think it gets ugly, early.
Cal +125 2 Units
I like Cal and I feel that Riley will make enough plays to win the game. The only thing keeping it from being a 3 unit play is Cal's play on the road.
Texas AM -7 2 Units
In a rivalry game I think AM comes to play and their talent shows up. Both teams are a little mismatch of talent for their coach but I think Tannehill steadies the ship and gets some more time. And even if JJ gets most of the snaps I don't think TT has the defense to force him into mistakes.
Iowa -6' 2 Units
MSU should have taken the L last week and Iowa should rebound from less than their best effort. You don't typically see that 2 weeks in a row from a Kirk Ferentz team. This is a good chance for Iowa to right the ship and put up a statement.
Georgia -2' 3 Units
I think the line is under 3 because of Florida's line respect. But Georgia is playing great with AJ Green back in the fold. Their offense is more balanced and has the big play in the passing game. I think UGA makes Florida one dimensional and forces Brantley to beat them. I don't see him being there yet. Florida's D has talent but they haven't been good for more than short stretches this season.
Michigan -3 2 Units
I don't like road faves but I think Michigan exploits their athletic advantage and their last 2 losses should prepare them well for this matchup. PSU has disappointed all season and although they should move the ball on Michigan better than some other games if they get down early and have to play catchup I don't see them as being built for that.
