    56-13 trend goes today

    good stuff lowell. normally a lot of trends are nonsense but this is one that is based on sound football principles. would presume that the record is for 2005 only? and when does it start from? meaning how far into the season did the teams have to be before the trend became "trackable"?

    tx in game thread

    maybe not, but there's certainly a definition for the word 'gimmick'. and that involves trickery and deception. neither of which texas tech uses week in and week out. they line 5 guys up wide. run a lot of crossing patterns. and have guys running routes at every level. it's nothing tricky...

    scott: i think you're confusing "gimmick offense" with "one-dimensional" offense. not trying to get into semantics here, but they're not the same. texas tech gets pounded in big games because they are not a physical team. their offense is very sophisticated in terms of the routes they run and...

    what's "gimmicky" about the texas tech offense? they don't run all kinds of trick plays. they just line up with 4 or 5 wideouts every time and constantly put pressure on your secondary for 60:00. leach is an offensive genius but not because he's re-invented the wheel.

    W.Vir / Pitts 2nd Half Play

    strong lean to pittsburgh 2h pts and even moneyline. think wvu wins by 7 or less.

    College Football Picks (11/22-11/26), YTD: 75-55, +20.01 units

    mount union might go down this week, but it takes major, MAJOR balls to bet against them at less than a touchdown. that program just knows how to win. i agree, it's almost an obligatory play, win or lose

    anyone know?....

    obviously there are so many different rankings from so many sources. but scout.com had him as the #6 small forward in the country (for incoming freshmen).

    how bad is the mac this year when akron .........

    cant say firsthand what its like in akron, but im a half an hour north and its been snowing since the middle of the afternoon on friday. i believe thats supposed to continue overnight. not sure how much of it will stick on the ground come gametime but weather is less than ideal.

    how bad is the mac this year when akron .........

    mac is pathetic this year. toledo and bowling green both were conference favorites and both failed to impress. there will be a changing of the guard soon, because western michigan is very, very young and will only get better. central michigan already had a breakthrough year and will only get...

    how bad is the mac this year when akron .........

    has a shot to play in the mac championship game? :mj07: whats sad is that last year, they actually had a GOOD team with charlie frye and were the lone bowl eligible team to get shut out. now, an akron team that has losses to ball state and army..... has a shot at a mac title? wouldn't be...

    northern illinois / wmichigan line ...........

    line move is very simple- with a win, northern illinois advances to the mac championship game for the first time in school history. bowling green's loss to toledo eliminated western michigan from mac contention. had bowling green not lost the lead in the final minutes last night, wmu would...

    Wiscy/Rainbows

    jmo, but i think the real wisconsin team finally started showing up against penn state and iowa. there's a reason they were considered an overachiever all year and expected to be about .500 in the big 10 this season. tend to think this one is hawaii or pass. some far better teams than wisconsin...

    small mac play .....

    weather is the only thing that can keep the three remaining mac games under the totals this week, so unless youre strongly convicted that weather can hold down the offenses, best to either pass or consider the overs. and november 23rd, 2004 isn't forgotten by the orange and brown

    small mac play .....

    gentlemen: thank you. the words truly are appreciated. for whatever reason, there are certain guys around here who get off on taking cheap shots at the work that i put in. they know who they are. all i can say is that i work very, very hard to make an honest contribution around here. every post...

    zags-mich st

    there seems to be an inordinate amount of line moves "across zero" so far this season. and half the time, they've been wrong. ostensibly, the gonzaga/mich state move is a 4 or 4.5 point move, but you can almost consider 1-0-1 "dead" numbers. it's very tough for the game to land on those numbers...

    Dear GMan......

    saint: cleveland state was within 8 or so until the final media timeout of the half, or thereabouts, before carolina hit them with a late 1h run and then blew them out in the 2nd half. i think at some point it was 38-30 with 5:00 to go or so. some teams come into acc gyms and are down 24-6...
