YTD 122-105-2 +16.68 Units

South Carolina +7.5***
This line has already dropped from 8 to 7 and now back up to 7.5.
As many have already mentioned on this board, you know how teams come out after a long OT game the week before and now the Hogs only have 4 days to rest up and play again. Hogs are banged up at RB and I really think Holtz takes advantage of a inconsistent Hogs D. SC showed alot of character against Ole Miss in coming back in the 4th Q. They never gave up and showed poise. SC has balance on offense a little more now than a month ago. They have been able to set up the pass much better through the run and we all know what Summers can do at RB. Their is no reason SC can not win this game outright so I will gladly take the pts.

Back later with a few plays but I will be more selective this week and stay away from 25 plays, I have done it a few times this year and need to be smarter.

GLTA!

Adding:

Louisville +2.5*(Wed.night)
I have watched TCU a few times this year and they are very much like OSU in their conference, they do just enough to win. Sooner or later it will catch up to TCU and I think Louisville is in a great spot. Cards are road tested. For the Cards to win in SU against a team that is always tough to beat at home in the Dome on the carpet is good enough for me. Another quality win at Kentucky.

Two don't laugh picks(sorry Joe De, I stole your moniker for these two plays) I got these two lines Sunday night at Pinnacle.

UCLA +10*
Bruins got caught looking ahead last week in their loss to Stanford. No doubt the were looking ahead to WSU. WSU are coming off a bad loss to USC after barely surviving Oregon St. the week before. This is a great sandwich spot to take the points against the Cougars.

Texas A&M +34*
Yes the Aggies. Sooners will have a bit of a letdown while the Aggies will have nothing to lose. I really believe the Aggies do enought to stay inside this number. This line has already dropped to 29.5 in some places.

horns,

great write-ups, like usual.

i like the louisville game also, but am not comfortable that it seems like it's a popular pick on the net. but then again i just noticed that pinnacle went up to 2.5 on the game. so maybe not everybody is betting louisville.

good luck & continued success.

Adding:

Purdue -2.5**
Boilermakers have been solid at home with the exception of the BG game. Iowa on the other hand has been a different team on the road. Sure they beat Iowa St. but who hasn't. They lost at MSU and OSU. 1-2 on the road and now the Hawkeyes face another quality opponent on the road. I like this Senior laden Purdue team to get the win by a TD.

Five plays so far and I will take 3 of the following. The only other plays I will add Saturday are 2nd half plays. I might add a total or two.
Leans to Rutgers +7, Missouri -4, Wisky +8, Ten. +13 & Clemson +16.5.

Good Luck Horns. We must be thinking alike. I like So. Car. and the points. Also the under in that game. I also expect a very strong game from my Boilers. This will be the seniors final home game . Look for the defense to play one of it's best games and shut down the Hawkeyes. Possible a good under play too. And finally I like Louisville tonight.

Off to a terrible start, down more than 4 Units already. Maybe I will be good fade.

Adding:

Clemson +17*
Call me crazy but Tommy needs this game more than anything. I know the Tigers will not win this game but FSU could have a ND letdown and we all know that Clemson plays great at home. Lets face it, Tigers got caught looking ahead last week in their loss to WF. I think Clemson will go about this game the same way Penn St. did last week against Ohio St. They will sink all their time and energy into this one. I am hoping they don't have too much emotion. Just think the Tigers stay inside this number. Alot of points to get at home in a night game, crowd should be nuts.
Possible sandwich game with ND and NC St. That Wolfpack game is a double revenge game in Tallahasee.

Pitt +5*
Another night game with the home team getting points. I am not saying the Panthers win but very well could. Just think this is a close game their entire way. With Hall out for VT for one half, that might be just enough for me to get inside the number as Fitzgerald will go nuts on the VT defense. This match-up favours them. VT could have a bit of a letdown and if they are not ready the same way as last week they will be in a dogfight. We all saw them at WV so who says they won't fare well on the road at Pitt.

NW +5.5**
After watching Paterno tell the whole world tonight prior to the Ark game that they put all their energy into the Ohio St. game something tells me the Nittany Lions are in for a BIG letdown. Devastating loss and when you sink all your emotions into one game and now have to go on the road to play an average opponent that wants the game more, this is a nice spot for the dog getting points at home. NW needs this and a win against Illinois to be bowl eligible. NW could get the outright win.

Texas -3*
Really like the way the Longhorns are playing right now. Winning the TO battle and playing solid football on both sides of the ball. Their team game has been solid and finally have some confidence. No individuals which has been a problem in the past at times. As long as Mack does not screw up this game I think the Longhorns will move the ball on a banged up Cowboys squad. Okl. St. is in their worst state of mind and will have a hard time getting their play back to the same level prior to the Okl. game. Looking for at least a TD win.

Kent St. +3.5*
They lost last year 50-0 being a 12 pt. fav at home. Off their bye they should get revenge.

I have two totals that I will post Sat. That is it for me. Hoping to get back on the plus side.
