Gave some back last week, tough one. Didn't like the card much and it showed.

Wathing quite a few this week, but really like this one:

BC +3 (-115) good sized play

Some reasoning:

1) I really like O'Brian and what he brings to the table week in and week out. Very rarely do you see his teams show up for a game unprepared. I've had good success backing him over the years and he is 12 games above .500 in conference play in his career. This is not to say I don't like Beamer, but I think his smoke an mirror tricks are starting to grow tired.

2) In VaTech's lone game against competition with a pulse (GT), they had just 42 rushing yds and were killed in the trenches all day. The majority of their passing yardage came after they trailed 38-13. This is not a good football team.

3) VaTech's young offensive line is horrid, giving up 7 sacks in their last two outings vs Cinci and BC. They will likely give up 3-4 more on Thursday. Conversely, BC has given up just 6 sacks total in their 4 difficult games vs CMU (very good front 7), NCSU, BYU and Clemson.

4) This game opened at VT -2'. That's almost enough to play this in and of itself. Joe P is loving the Hokies this week.

The one issue I have with the play is VaTech's stellar record on Thursday nights, but I really like BC everywhere that counts.

btw.. totally agree on the play and I did before i asked for your analysis... just trying to get as much information as possible... VT are jokers for sure... they get exposed for the second game in a row imo...

Good luck this weekend, I am leaning the other way on this game with VT having a long break off a loss I am sure Beamer will have those boys ready but BC is touch in chestnut (sp). As always good luck

Cheers

CWood - I've read some rumors on the rivals board that Woodley is a little banged up. Any truth to this???

Have not heard anything about Woodley. Heard early in the week that there may be a defensive injury, but that the player in question would likely play through it. So, the rumor may have some substance.

Thanks, Wood... That means i'm just going to sit back and watch this game. Just to many questions...

HOW CAN YOU TAKE MICHIGAN ST. AGAINST ANYBODY RIGHT NOW :shrug:

Thought this game had that 2004 Wisci @ MSU feel to it. Not that I thought the Bucks would lose, but I did think Spart would show up and play well. Clearly, they are mailing it in.

The Bucks look great once again. No doubt they will be 11-0 entering the UM game. I just hope UM can get through the next 2 and join them. Tonight will be tough.
