    charlotte @ ecu

    ecu -3-: some long tine madjackers recall that i like to go slumming with my plays from time to time, and this one's right from the cellar. this line rates these two teams equal but i don't believe that for a minute. i'm posting this now assuming it will rise later. i'll be back with more.

    ut-chattanooga @ tennessee tech

    tennessee tech -5: just a few short years ago, the utc moccasins (another one of my favorite nicknames) were one of the perennial powers in the southern conference. but that was then and this is now, and this year first year coach lamont paris is in serious rebuilding mode, fielding the youngest...

    texas southern @ baylor

    texas southern +20: meet the tigers of texas southern, currently a jaw-dropping 0-9 but #1 in the country in one category of significance - strength of schedule. thus far they have lost to the likes of gonzaga, ohio state, syracuse, kansas, clemson and oregon. think that's a tall order for any...

    jacksonville st @ oregon st

    jacksonville st +6-: i believe the early line jump unjustified and based on market perception. fact is, these are two fairly equal (jsu #96 osu #110), well balanced teams. both have had good results against relatively soft schedules. the one glaring difference between the two is that the...

    tennessee tech @ c michigan

    c michigan -5: speaking of 3 game road trips, this afternoon finds tennessee tech rolling into mt pleasant for their third road game of the week. tech golden eagles are a middle of the road ohio valley conference (ovc) team that caught some attention when they started the season 7-1. however, a...

    samford @ clemson

    clemson -17: with this pick we stay focused on the bulldog's 3 game road trip this week. on sunday samford walked through a 31 point loss to old rival jacksonville state, preferring to focus on tuesday's game against memphis and bulldog coach padgett's old coach tubby smith. samford played their...

    elon @ unc-g

    elon +6: opening line moved up a point with early speculators so i'll buy in now. these two schools sit a few miles apart in the greensboro/burlington/highpoint triad area of north carolina and were basketball rivals for several years in the southern conference until elon bolted for the more...

    samford @ memphis

    samford +8-: i put this play in early when i saw early action push the line down a half point, but i admit there are a lot of moving parts here. we just faded samford sunday afternoon, after seeing a samford that was floundering early in the season headed back to a motivated old rival in...

    appalachian state @ western carolina

    w car +6: been watching this line climb all day and now it looks like we've wrung all the value out we can. appalachian state is a mediocre team picked to finish next to last in the sun belt preseason polls, but is getting to little too much credit here because they have winning record so far...

    samford @ jacksonville st

    jacksonville st -8-: two old conference rivals meet up in today's pick, though now jacksonville st plays in the ovc and samford remains in the socon. jacksonville state is an experienced, up-tempo team with two losses, by 3 @ #61 miss st and by 5 @ #135 buffalo. samford has two wins, both @...

    mia o @ ball state

    okay, okay, so i'm off this week and bored, and when those things happen my mind works in convoluted ways. that's about the only way i would ever think about betting this game, but i just put in ball st +17- and under 56. wait, before you run away clutching your wallet and screaming, hear me...

    bowling green @ buffalo

    i'm aware bowling green has historically dominated buffalo but their o line is decimated and they have one of the worst defenses in the mac. can anyone tell me why bg is getting the early action...

    saturday acc football

    morning guys, lets take a look at acc football today. ga tech -10: if you ever thought you could play wide receiver at a power 5 school, you should have enrolled at unc at walked on this year. if you did, you'd be playing today, that's how bad the injury situation is on the hill. serious issues...

    samford @ mercer

    samford +5-: haven't had much time to post lately but thought this matchup presented a nice opportunity with samford catching the points in macon. this is a huge game for both teams tied for 6th in the socon, with tonight's winner claiming the 6th and final bye in the socon tournament. mercer...

    unc @ ncsu

    not sure I have a play on this game but there's so much going on in this contest outside the stat lines that it should make discussion. no secret at this point that the wolfpack club love affair with Gottfried is over. it's also no secret that he's gone as coach at the end of the season, and...

    samford @ e tenn st

    Bucs set for Samford challenge Steve Forbes doesn?t have to think hard to remember the last time his East Tennessee State University basketball team faced Samford. ETSU needed two overtimes to beat the Bulldogs, 96-86, in Birmingham, Alabama less than a month ago, and it was a game that left...
