last 2 for the week

wake+12

hawaii-19 very very big play, long flight to the island fau is going to be a good team they are going in the right direction . Just like they did about 8 years ago when they went D1 in baseball inwhich they win 45 to 48 games a year and 50 a few times, they have built fb the same way and will have a nice program in the years to come , you will see, but this is a lot to ask a fau team first game of the year

Good Luck

Eric

I love Marshall - need to buy the points now to bring it back down to 14 before it gets too expensive. This line will move; maybe up to 16.

All good plays in my book. I like Hawaii a lot! Still haven't pulled the trigger. Thanks for the other plays. I'm already on the Aggies.

Saw this game early in the week before a line came out and then seeing you post a very very big play by it i was all over it, but With all the injuries to Hawaii Def. -19 seems to be a big number. FAU has a good coach and 20 returning starters. Just wandering if this was ;) type play
Thanks for your picks always.

Colorado-4.5 bang it. Buffs are looking to smash some heads in the first game of the year, after they were made out to be a out of control fb team off the field, and lost their coach for some time , hey the chick could not kick, she showed that in the vegas bowl against usc when n.mex thought they would be cute and let her kick a extra point, and might of cost n.mex the game.


Missouri -17 1st half bang it

Missouri -32 above avg play, the tigers avg almost 40 points a game at home did give up some points at times but going against a team with little deff and will have a ok run but they have no passing game unless they picked up someone on the trip out to missou.

Hey fletch always look at your posts. Thanks for all the info. How would you rate your bang it plays. Are they average, above average,very very big or something else.
;) and these are tips right?
Just trying to refresh my memories from last year.
Thanks

cinn/ohio.st un 44 think you will see some long dives in this game ohio.st lost 4 key players on the off. side of the ball and will be playing 2 qb's during this game , They really don't have the quick strike off that they had at times with the passing game or at least they won't in 1st game so should see a lot of running from both teams, cinnci has tons of players on both sides of the ball back, they mix pass and run up, have a good running back in Hall and the passing game is built more for the 5-7 yard pass and run rather then the 20-25 yard passing game. I don't see new hc Dantonio changing that much in the passing game.

Both teams should be good on deff ohio.st seems to always have a nice deff. and osu strength is in line backers and db's even more reason for bearcats to run the ball , And Tressel is not the big wide open coach anyway and breaking in a new qb I think they will be slanted much more towards the run, hey with a deff like osu will have even with limited starters back they will be a very strong deff. team I just don't think they will take a lot of chances down field and play field poe. with the run and let deff do the job waiting for bearcats to make a mistake or 2, geno will try and throw the ball at times between a opening the size of a knats nutts. He will throw some td's but he also throws his share of int's.

Bearcats are stong at the deff. end spots who will try and put lot of pressuer on the new qb's for osu and should see some blitzes and different line stunts from bearcats to confuess which ever qb is in for ohio.st so think this should be a good chance at a under even with the low number for college.

1st half tonight
wash.st/nm un 22.5

Think these 2 teams will play it close to the vest in the first half and try to win the field poe. war With NM you really never do see much passing down field , the will get the ball in Moore's hands and let him run at the weakness of wash.st's deff their line also they will use the screen and short swing pass to Moore, he is the bulk of the lobos off and he can carry the load.

wash.st has lot of holes to fill and i don't think they will suck this year but don't think they will win 9 or 10 games either, i think they will try and hold on to the ball and eat up yards in the first to try and avoid the to's and give Moore and NM a short field it might open up more in the 2nd half after each team gets their feet wet and knock all the first game jitters out of the way.

Just seems like a big number for the half at 22.5 when you know NM has a main goal besides winning and that goal is to run moore just like always and eat up clock and play a tough hard hitting deff game. just hope wash.st can keep Moore from breaking off the big runs, i can handle 4.5-5 yards a carry with him touching the ball 14-15 times in the half in either the run, screen or swing pass, just don't let him get the corner or break through the front line on a blitz or it is see you later.

LSU un 48 ;););)

Will pass on any other tips i might get in late tonight or early sat.

Good Luck

Eric
