NCAA YTD: 7-7 (-0.15*)
- - 2-6 ATS record in NCAA games starting after 6:30 p.m. local time (0-1 in NFL), and 5-1 in early NCAA games (4-0 in NFL). I'm not at all happy about that.
So far . . .
Iowa State(-2') over Northern Illinois (1.25*)
I seriously doubt any team of coaches and players is as hungry as ISU at this moment for the taste of any win over any Division I opponent. Some serious effort and discipline is going on in giving up 17 total points over the first two games while not favored in either matchup. ISU HC McCarney does a nice job on the sidelines in competitive games, and I believe it is reflected in his SU and ATS record in games decided by 8 points or less. NIll is without stud QB Haldi and next on tap for them is a Friday night hosting of Bowling Green (which ended their undefeated season last year). Even at home, I would not wager on a third big effort in a row from the hungry Cyclones IF they were basking in rich rewards from the first two efforts, but they haven't accomplished shit.
Clemson(Pk)(-108) over Texas A&M (1.25*)
- I believe Clemson is 9-1 SU under HC Bowden after a loss of 7 points or less. After the Bowden family tragedy, I believe that to a man the players and coaches believe they let themselves and each other down last week, and they have designs on getting it right this week.
