Three early plays that I like...

Ohio State +10.5 over USC (2 Units) - Huge overreaction to last week's game in C-bus. Sanchez is a sitting duck against this defense. OSU struggles against the spread but chews up traditional offenses. I also like this game to be under the total...whatever it might be.

Buffalo - 6 over Temple - Buffalo can put points on the board and Temple cannot.

Georgia Tech +7 over Virginia Tech - The Hokies shouldn't be favored by seven against anyone right now.

OK
Carl, my early plays were Org St-11, Buff -6 and GT +7 (missed the 7 1/2). Hope we are on to something, gl.

it sounds like you might be a homer if not i am sorry, i hate usc and dont really care about osu i care about winning but did you watch the osu/ohio game; ohio is one of the worst teams in college football and they dominated OSU; anyone that says different is absolutely insanse; even if they were looking ahead who cares they were favored by 35 points and barely won; but what really should worry osu fans is how bad they looked; yes; osu has a good defense but their offense is absolutely dreadful; they scored on a fumble in the endzone; a return; but this is the kicker; ohio had 5 turnovers; look even if they have wells and even if they creamed ohio; they are going on the road against a team that has a defense that may have 6 first road draft picks; and an offense that is much, much better than OSU PLAYING AT HOME; coming off a bye; if the game was at OSU; yes they may have some chance only because emotion goes so much into college football but anyone that says Ohio should have not won that game is crazy; the line is 10 points; if osu defense gets 5 turnovers again they might cover but this is USC not Ohio and they wont be playing at home; people who say they were looking ahead is just dumb; i mean on talent alone it should have been a 21 pt game; if not for all the turnovers it would have been a 21 pt victory for ohio; listen good luck on your play but playing against USC off a bye on the road with no offense; i just dont think that is a winning ticket and ask carson palmer if USC will be ready for that game; they will stick it to them for 4 qtrs; whay do you think USC not Ohio defense will do to OSU at USC; good luck on your play but Ohio State has been exposed the last 2 years and USC never shows mercy.

I assure you that Spacks is not a homer. Misguided? perhaps. Disturbed? probably, but a homer? no.

I would respond to the whole "homer" take, but I just don't have time and I am still trying to recover from seeing that many semi-colons in one post.

Penn State/Syracuse over 50.5
- No problems with the weather in the Carrier Dome. There are problems in the fact that Greg Robinson is about to be run out of town...but that should keep the game from going over the total.

Duke -2 over Navy
- Maybe it is because it is the first game on the ticket this week, but this one seems way off. Duke is not awful anymore...they are still bad, but not awful. Navy can't stop anyone, so I will lay the small chalk.

Central Michigan -3 over Ohio - I think this has to be a letdown game for OU, and they could be a little physically banged up too. CMU is still the class of the MAC and should roll here.

I might post a few more but this card just doesn't look great to me.
