3-6 ytd
Not the start I was looking for...not the start at all. However I am always skeptical about week 1 of the college season and I was wrong more than I was right last week. I should have quit while I was a little less behind. Going 0-2 yesterday didn't help the cause, and what was up w/ Vegas only giving SMU 8-10 points yesterday...that was funny.
Now that there is some actual data to analyze I think there will be improvement this week. I hope so anyway...
Here is what I am looking at this week...a few of these have already been locked in...not all of them.
Penn State -17
Notre Dame is abyssmal, those QBs of their's were rattled in a home game, how's it gonna be when they are getting screamed at by 109,000 fans in Happy Valley vs. a team looking to and capable of exacting some revenge.
Colorado State +14
Cal beat Tennessee last week and CSU got beat by a team that they outplayed. I was impressed w/ both CSU and CU last week. I sense a majority of people will be on the Bears...I'll be on the Rams getting at least 14 @ home. CSU beat Cal in Berkley in '03 and Cal is just 3-5 SU in their first road game the last 8 years. CSU will bring it this week and I look for Cal to have a letdown game.
Colorado +15
I was very impressed with CU last week as well. I think this team is capable of suprising some people this year. After an awful 2006 where they finished 2-10 SU and 4-7 ATS, I think they will finish with a much better ATS record this year. CU is 7-2 over the last 9 years in their first game after playing CSU w/ an average score of 30-17.
South Florida +7
I think this team is very capable of pulling the outright upset. I don't have a ton of faith in Auburn and I think USF has a lot of talent and speed, probably more speed than K-State. Auburn was lucky to escape their game w/ K-State w/ a win. USF didn't look too great in their game against Elon but I will put some stock behind the idea that they were saving up for this week's game in Auburn. Auburn is however, 10-1 in the 2nd game of back-to-back home games and USF is 1-7 in their last 8 road openers. Auburn was just 2-5 last year as a home favorite. I don't care much about trends but it is nice when they support a play. Not the case here.
Cincinnati +3.5
Really not impressed with OSU...I think that if Brian Johnson didn't get hurt last week that they really could have lost to Utah. OSU is 1-5 in their last 6 road games and the last time they traveled east of the Mississippi they got hammered by Louisville 63-27. OSU is 5-7 vs. current Big East teams while Cincy has won 8 straight non-conference home games.
Hopefully all this shit can translate into some damn victories.
