Thanks! I’ll take 6 - 3 every week if I’m so lucky. Only pick that was way off was the Nev/Mizzou game, gave Nevada and their D a bit too much credit. I don’t watch any gambling TV; just pull up the lines of every game as soon as they are posted and see what jumps out at me. Then I read up on each of those games and narrow it down to my favorites.
Yes, BYU -48 would have been an easy winner, haha.

Nice picks, don’t just go with what you see on vegas gambling tv though. You had awesome picks for the overs, although you gave byu credit, -8 was a little soft huh?

Thanks man! 6 - 3, lost the Clemson game by half a point and the Oregon/Purdue over by 2 points. Not complaining at all, won some close calls too! North Texas could have gone either way. I’m just happy that 8 of my 9 picks were either easy wins or very close, thats all you can ask for!

Haha, I’m scared to as well! I’m excited though, this game will tell us A LOT about both teams. Fresno State is a very rugged team and they get up for big games like crazy. Wisconsin has looked good so far though and has the talent to win this game, but do they have the heart? Stepping up and taking it to the next level has been their problem over the last few years… this will be a big win for whoever takes this one. I’ll just kick back and enjoy. Good luck to your team!

Sorry I didn’t get back to you in time Rw, but I don’t really have a strong opinion anyway, this Kan/USF game could go so many ways. As for the Over 48, I think I still like it, but don’t love it at that number. In any case, good luck with whatever you went with, hopefully I’ll be able to get back to you in time next time.

What up Dave, what …
What up Dave, what do you think of the over/under in the kansas/south florida? 49 points, both have a good offense, both have a good defense, do you think it will be a shoot out or a tough game in the trenches? what about the washington st/baylor over/under 48?

Too tough to call. …
Too tough to call. Kansas has not looked particularly sharp against creampuffs at home, so this will be a tough game for them on the road. South Florida made some mistakes in the UCF game though that they will NOT get away with in this game. I’m staying away from it. I guess I’d give a slight edge to USF, but not with much confidence.

Needless to say, if LSU comes out and plays their best and doesn’t take their foot of the pedal, North Texas gets absolutely annihilated. But I believe that LSU has bigger fish to fry and doesn’t need to beat NT 63 - 0 as a morale booster. They keep it simple ot show any signs of rust, and my 42 points hold up. 42 - 3, 49 - 10, something like that. We’ll see. GL this weekend!

Wow, you shocked me …
Wow, you shocked me with the North Texas/LSU game. North Texas is horrible and I don’t see them keeping this one within 42. LSU decided to play this one at home despite the damage from Hurricane Gustav, and I think they are going to be rested and ready to play. Good luck to you bro and keep the picks coming.

Which games do you …
Which games do you like that look easy? Post them here so you can brag if you do well! Penn State has looked outstanding and Syracuse is very weak, but I still don’t like giving up that many points on PSU’s first road game. Don’t blame those that want to, though.

Thanks, means alot to me! I agree wholeheartedly too, I wouldn’t want anyone to follow me blindly… I just want to give you my insight to use with your own as well as highlight some games you may have missed.

I love what your doing here. Its great insight no matter what the result of the picks are. Anyone interested in sports betting should watch and atleast add your insight to the overall study of each of their picks even if they choose to go the other way.

-7? I think its …
-7? I think its closer to -11 now. If you can get it at -7, thats outstanding. The game will go one of two ways… USC will win comfortably OR Ohio State’s defense will play extremely well and keep the game close, then anything can happen. Either way I don’t see Ohio State scoring a whole lot. I stayed away because its too hard to tell so early in the season, but I’d say both sides of the 11 points are a real possibility in this one.

Don’t really see a strong lean here at all… need to see more games from both teams. I’d take Rutgers minus the points if I had to take something, they are generally a great home team and Fresno State was a tough game, losing to them was to be expected.
