Virginia -6 over UNC: Two teams headed in opposite directions. UVA blew one last week against Maryland but is starting to get things going with Sewell at QB. UNC is not showing any signs of stopping anyone. A night game in Virginia on Thursday night gives the Wahoos enough energy to cover this number.
Wisky -6 over Purdon't: Is Purdue the weakest 5-2 team in the country? I'm not real impressed with wins over Ball St., Miami (OH) in ot, Indiana St., Northwestern and Minnesota. They got smoked by Notre Dame and Iowa and in my opinion Wisconsin is as good as those teams. Badgers defense is strong and Hill should rush for a ton of yards. The only reason I'm not putting two units on this one is that Wisky is on the road.
Arkansas St./North Texas under 40.5: Both teams like to run the ball mainly because they have mediocre (I'm being nice) quarterbacks. Reggie Arnold is banged up for Arkansas St. but should play and Jamario Thomas should get 25 carries for NT. This should be a grinder especially with no clear-cut favorite in the conference, probably a 17-6 type of game.
MTSU -3.5 over ULM: Monroe keeps hanging around in games, mainly because teams are making stupid mistakes against them. They are now 0-3 in the conference and we will probably see some quit in them. MTSU is 2-0 and has a big game next week against ULL. They have always been one of the most talented (and disappointing) teams in the conference but this might be their year. I don't see them letting down in this situation.
