I took my plays for tonight earlier and glad I did since my lines are decent. Just took my Thursday night plays.
Akron +10 for 7* & 1st half +6 (-105) for 3* - I wasn't impressed with Miami, Ohio last week against Bowling Green. They were lucky to win this game and if the fog hadn't been so bad, they might have lost (highly questionable INT late in the game). Adding to Miami, Ohio's woes is their starting QB being out for the remainder of the regular season. Akron has a solid RB and enjoyed extra prep time for this game. I think the Zips will give a solid effort being on National TV and have a shot to win this game late.
Bowling Green +11 (-120) for 7* & 1st half +6.5 for 3* - I was very unimpressed with the poor effort defensively by Toledo last week. I thought their RB looked good in the 2nd half and their young QB looked okay, but I don't like their chances winning tonight by 12+.
UCLA +3 (-125) for 8* & 1st half +.5 for 4* - Bruins have a decent shot at a bowl game with a win. They would be 5-5 and just need to upset either Arizona State or USC to go bowling. Jake Locker should play, but won't be close to 100%. I also like UCLA's running game as Franklin has almost 1,000 yards and the Bruins defense is much better than anything Washington has to offer. Bruins have also been able to make a number of big plays over their past 6 quarters of football and appear to be improving as the season progresses. The Huskies probably can't wait for the season to end as many people thought they would be decent and instead are a train wreck.
UNLV +19.5 - I haven't played this game yet as I'm hoping this number goes up to 20.5 so I can buy to 21. Rebels have gone 4-1 ATS at home this season while the Falcons are just 2-3 ATS on the road and only beat lowly New Mexico 48-23 @ home in their last game. I think Air Force will have a VERY tough time winning by 20 points or more in this contest.
Leaning towards Fresno State on Friday night +30 or better. I know the Smurf turf, Boise, blah-blah. Boise has covered 8 of 9 against Fresno, etc. However, this is still a TON of points.
