Leaning UCLA plus the points tonite. I see this setting up similar too the USC game a couple years back vs. Oregon St.
I can remember going into that game telling myself that USC and the over were at worst case a split. I figured usc too score atleast 40 and for them not too cover the 21 or whatever it was, well then oregon st would have to score in the 20's taking the game over the total. Well I couldnt of been more wrong as i think the game ended 27-21 or 28-21:shrug:, or something very similar too that score. Anyways what I am getting at is on these bigtime thursday night games anything can happen, and usually it is whatever is opposite of the public perception. I think a lot of people wll be thinking with that same logic of , "well oregon is gonna score a ton, so if they dont cover its because the game goes over".
Dont be suprised too see UCLA and the under come into play tonite. I am not sure if i am playing anything but if I do most likely it will be either ucla or the under. GL too everyone.

tried too stop lookin at games becasue I already have the biggest card of my year pretty much, and dont wanna add much more, but looking at ILLONOIS -13.5....not a play yet but lookin hard at it. may see if the number comes down some casuse I havent seen many on them, but handful on indiana...
Interested in the thinking behind your Utah St pick - Two of their losses (2-4) are to FCS schools and if you take into account common opponents - Hawaii beat Fresno State in Fresno by 22 and Utah St lost to Fresno State in Utah by 17.
In conference Utah State has scored 30pts and gave up 65 (2 games 0-2)
Hawaii in conference has scored 127 and given up 69 (3 games 3-0)
I think Hawaii is for real and will be a god sized wager - but would be interested n your take.
Cheers

IVabign- why i like UTST
Hey appreciate the input friend. No problem asking. This game actually at first was a no play for me after going through at first. This was more of a feel play. I usually pick one or two games a week that i didnt have as plays that appeal too me. When looking at these plays I usually look for plays that look too good to be true. I first saw hawaii and said too myself the same stuff you did. They are for real, they outrush, outscore, play better defense, and overall flat outplay utah st. Then I asked myself, "why is the line only a field goal?" Also, I was impressed by UTAH st when i watched them play a couple fridays ago against BYU. UTST is also a conference opponent who i think is getting hawaii at a good spot right after a big home win vs a ranked nevada team. I will tell ya though that I usually do pretty well on these feel plays seem too get luckier.
but pretty much comes down to this line not being where i think it should be...figured it should be somewhere are 10, but it isnt so figured i would take a stab at utahst on their home field.
GL with your plays whatever you decide

HAHA i nailed that one. Wow is oregon legit. Good think i didnt post a play on that game cause wow was I wrong with my opinion. Guess I didnt realize how terrible UCLA was. How did that team beat texas is beyond me.
locked sanjose st in at 19.5 and added colorado +3..........
Thats it as i already have a big card good luck too everyone!!!!!
hope evryone has a profitable week:toast:

south florida looked good tonite, not sure how they play like they did tonite, and then some games look terrible. Regardless nice too get this win going into the weekend.
Northwestern going too be a bigger play then the rest. Liked them, and now NBA KID says play em. Reccomend following him until he slows down as he is on a absolute tear in all sports, but college foots ecspecially...GL tommorow madjackers
need too get away from the computer....cant quit looking at games and all the fun stuff that goes into figuring what you think is the correct side....not happy with myself playing this many games, but really like this card and a lot of games...either gonna be huge week, or I will quickly remember why I try limiting my plays.
Anyyways, adding one last play for the night and really am done this time.
Play: Buffalo +8
GETTIN OFF here before I start looking at more.
