--- Week 6 DISCUSSION ---

California at Oregon

Starting with this game, the weather here in oregon has made its turn for the normal, Rain / Wind / Cold... thursday night in eugene, thirsty thursday, should be one of the loudest crowds u will see at autzen, national television on thirsty thursday, this line is spot on, for me i think playing the spread is a no go, but the points over is all systems go! ducks team total is also a go for me, anything under 50 points for team total is must play for ducks team total, if colorado can drop 30 on cal oregon can surely drop 50 at home in autzen..

North Carolina -14

not real high on louisville, north carolina finally getting that home game after some road games, first glance im expecting 42-17 final north carolina, lean UNC & OVER

Central Michigan +13

Nice effort last week outta NC State, but wasnt enough, but now u gotta turn around and bring that same effort again, and i expect the emotion wont be all there for this game, ill take the points here...

Auburn at Arkansas

Over Over Over Over, Auburn Runs the football....A LOT on offense, arkansas defense 2 weeks in a row have gotten steam rolled in the run, and arkansas offense is not great, but really good, and auburns defense, lmao do they have one? last week vs south carolina that was just both teams shooting themselves in the foot all game blowing scoring oppertunities... this week that wont happen, this total might be over 60 but i still think they can reach it, also team total for arkansas could be worth a hard look too if u can get it close to 35 area... cause i think they can drop 42+ on auburn

Maryland +15

G-tech i get it your offense is pretty good, and your rushing attack is stellar but really? your defense keeps letting teams come back too quick, if you play defense like u have last 2 week Maryland will march down the field on you as easy as you do on them..
i like the over and maryland +15 too many points to give up if you cant stop opposing teams, right now g-tech is like the pats, trying to just out score everyone... play some defense and ill back your bigger spreads..

Tennessee U +1

i really like georgia as a team this year, but for some reason i have a feeling Tennessee's offense will put too many points up at home for georgia to win this one, 31-20 is what i see.. georgia is a team who plays well when ahead, when they fall behind early and take away the run game, they start becoming a bad team, i think tenn will score fast and early here and force georgia to start chucking the ball which will lead to a couple to's either via sack fumble or int off of intense qb pressure... so i lean Teen +1 here

Air Force +16�

Notre Dame finally smashes someone and they all the sudden become 16.5 point favs... im not buying into this bs, the #1 rushing team in the nation is coming to town and they will chew click and put up a few scores, airforce might not win the game but +16.5 is alot to give to #1 rushing offense... gimmie the points and possibly the under here if its around 55 or higher

Louisiana Tech -4�

Hawaii just flew in and kicked you in the nuts! how will you respond? i think you will respond big and pound this pathetic thing the call a team in idaho:thumbs: -4.5 la tech gimmie

Arizona U at Oregon State

Wow the **** bowl of college football, this might be the game that gets the f*** head stoops finally fired! i will not bet on this game as i hate the beavers, but this week go beavs! i wanna see stoops out and anyone else in! pathetic showing vs a poorly coached usc team last week, play some damn defense, usc scored first 8-9 possesions :laughing:

btw same usc team that won by blocking a fg vs Minnesota 19-17 :laughing:

Kansas at Oklahoma State

Oklahoma State team total &/or the game total over will be the only thing i will be looking at playing in this game, most likely the team total will be best play

Michigan -5

I dont know why this line is so slow... maybe denard robinson is going on vacation for this game and they are not gonna tell the public he isnt playing until game time, cause this northwestern team should not even come close in this football game, overrated.... if michigan loses this game shoelace should become highheels cause thats probably the only shoes i could come up with denard could wear and not get 100+ yards on this overrated nw team... -5 really maybe i should just stay away big 10 football what a joke... wisconson is here on top of mountain rest of confrence this year, they are on a race sledding down the side of the mountain to see who can hit bottom first...

Texas A&M -6

is this line really not -20?? thank god i dont own my own house, cause i would certainly bet the whole damn thing, tech defense is awful, i mean nevada cant score crap on boise or oregon which both are more offensive oriented teams, and they score 34 on you and dominated u all game and u got lucky sqeaked a win out lol.... A&M Out classes you here and they are gonna just f u dry, i mean i seriously am probably gonna go broke this week if i am wrong here but i am putting in right now alot down on a&m before this spread gets over 7, i mean **** i probably bet them at -20 but -6 holy crap time to deposit some more cash lol...

Kansas State +3

this is like the books keep guessing when this team is gonna lose, wake up kstate is for real this year, +3 at home, missouri? well thank you for the +3 ill take it and the + ml

Nebraska -10

Down year for big ten and ohio state is not the jim tressel ohio state, this is a new look ohio state and they dont look good, nebraska got slapped by a way better team last week, ohio state got beat by michigan state, why because ohio state sucks, they barley beat toledo at home, lost to miami on the road... nebraska offense will be too much for this team, kinda like miami game, be same situation same out come... taking nebraska -10

good luck this week fellas lets kick the man back:beerbang:

**hodown** · 10-05-2011, 04:48 PM

Pretty crappy weekend for sides. Then again my record would suggest every weekend is crappy. Off the top...

Texas +10 vs OU
Seems like Texas is catching a generous amount of points considering they appear to have the better run game and slightly better defense.

Indiana +14.5 vs Illinois
Let down spot for Illinois coming off close win vs NW, Indiana was respectable last week vs PSU. Just don't see Ilini with great effort especially with OSU on deck.

Iowa +4 @ PSU
Iowa generally a good dog team and have fared well vs PSU L10. I'd be curious to hear Joe's take, game should be competitive. Iowa hasn't lost by more than 7 in four years and they're covering some key numbers with this line. Then again Iowa's defense isn't its typical strong unit, and PSU should be ready to go.

Arkansas -10 vs Auburn
Large number here. Auburn ran 92 plays last week to SC's 57. Malzahn is good at what he does. Auburn also in letdown spot however.

Just a few that stick out on my initial look..

**Daws1089** · 10-07-2011, 03:10 PM

I agree with Tenn +2. Think they could be in a good spot to take this. It's hard to win on the road in the SEC.

Where was A&M -6? I have it opening at -7 and now at -9.5. I cannot lay that many with that team. They have done nothing but disappoint and TT can put up numbers. I don't think this is the week that A&M gets right.

AUB getting 10 again?? Seems awfully shady for them to be a 10 pt dog again on their 2nd straight road game. I think they will have a real hard time here.

**Daws1089** · 10-07-2011, 03:12 PM

anybody else think WAKE +10.5 is a worth a wager? FSU looks easy at -10 against the weak WAKE squad. I dont know how I feel. Could just be a bad line.

**hodown** · 10-07-2011, 04:37 PM

Looking at lines more I think Mizzou might be the best play on the board. True the books might be guessing for KSU to lose but line movement is squarely in Mizzou's favor, and statistically they are dominant to KSU on both sides of the ball. Mizzou's defense will be more formidable than Baylor's IMO. Unranked road fave against a ranked home dog says something is up here.

I think this line is pretty close, wake has a decent offense, but this line lower because of 2 straight losses if FSU was home team i bet this line be -14.5

i was thinking about this game today i am going with the over and not playing a side... i have seen many non ranked road favs vs ranked home teams and they end up covering most of the time, so u might be right with mizzu

I like the under in this game alot, i feel good at this game staying under 6 tds ... strong psu defense and weak psu offense...

**Nicky Santoro** · 10-08-2011, 09:36 AM

Agreed Hodown, I really am having a hard time laying off Texas getting double digits. This match-up should be close and the Longhorns could get the straight up win. However, the Sooners will certainly present some problems for the Texas defense, as
they are averaging a hefty 555.0 yards per game. The ground game is potent
(177.2 ypg), but not when compared to the passing attack, which is churning
out 377.8 yards per game. That scares the crap outta me. Balance is key if the Longhorns stand a shot. Case McCoy must have help in the ground game, if it's effective I like at least a cover.

**hodown** · 10-08-2011, 09:44 AM

Well two frosh QB's and a frosh RB being thrown into the mix makes me a little hesitant in making the final move. My book has 11 right now, and it wouldn't take much for OU to win by 14. That being said OU was clearly superior last year and only won by 8. The pressure is squarely on OU and Texas just has the feel this year that it's out for redemption after last years' embarrassment. I think I'll pull the trigger
