Army -6.5 over Air force *

Small play..tough game..both teams are in the top 6 in rushing and the bottom 120's in passing..they both run the same offense...Army has 4 or 5 backs and so does Air Force..Army's Hopkins is a dual threat since he has already passed yds and td's in the air from last yr..But AF also has a qb that can run and pass...Army ranks in the top 2 or 3 on 3rd downs...AF doesn't have those stats...Army defense has really stepped up...think AF has played the tougher schedule but this is a noon game at the Point and a 9.00am start for AF...think Army wins but it could be close...last yr Army went out to Colorado and won 21-0..the CIC trophy is on the line..Flyboys already beat Navy 14-13...think Army wins by a td...

West Vir +2 over Texas ***
Think wrong team is favored...Texas was outplayed,outcoached,etc by Ok St..Iowa St did the same to WV..a lot has been made about Herman benching his 2 starters at Cb's ...and it did spot Ok St with a fw scores...but Texas on defense still had blown coverage's and missed tackles...they let an avg Ok St offense get 504 yd.think Texas is so overrated...qb's are ok,OL is good but not great...defense might have the best athletics but think chemistry is missing...they lost to Maryland,struggled with Tulsa,beat a bad K-State and TCU team..did beat a good OU team..and had problems with Baylor...West Vir just blew Baylor away..now WV also has had problems esp with Iowa St last week.. Iowa St had 8 db's on the field on some plays...Grier is one of the best qb 's in the country..he has 3 wr;s that can score..he has 2 decent rb's..a good Ol and an improved def line that added some transfer graduates...Texas cannot play catch up...think they get behind and then become very predictable...like the WV offense vs the Texas defense a lot more then the Texas offense vs WV defense...
last year I had WV -3 over Texas...loved that game..then Grier scores a td and dislocates his finger and sits the whole game...Texas wins by 2 td's..both teams lost to Ok St and Iowa St...both those coaches game plan was outstanding...so I'm sure UT and WV coach have to figure out how we both got out coached and out played..and I'm sure they both looked at the tape and said I hope our next opponent doesn't use the same scheme...
I had tickets to the game tomorrow but my granddaughter has a basketball game tomorrow afternoon and I already missed her 1st two games...

Houston -14 over Smoo ****
Blowout...Smoo can't run the ball...Coogs have a decent defense and an outstanding qb in King..last yr they beat them 35-22 ..and Smoo lost 3 of its top scorers from last yr..

Ga St -6.5 over Texas St **
Lost last week with Tx St.. I want some of my boxes back this week...

Wisky -28 over Rutgers **
Its Rutgers homecoming and another player was arrested..and again for a serious crime...attempted murder,kidnapping...when other schools have players suspended its usually an assault on a girl,stealing laptops,etc...Rutgers has had murder,kidnapping,stabbings,gun chargers and the above ...think over 16 players have been kicked off already..Ash was supposed to clean it up but I guess he can't...Wisky has been down so it will take out their terrible season on the Nites...all Wisky players are leaving their wallets at the hotel...yes,,they had a theft in the locker room too..

Troy -10 over UL Laf ****
Best play..Troy wins by 2-3 td's..
top plays Houston and Troy

Basketball starts this week....Air Force plays Tx St Friday night...just got my Blue Ribbon and have been capping a few games....will be sitting in row 1 friday night..can't wait..

I'm scratching my head a little bit, Box. Rutgers is playing at Wisconsin.

But I think you convinced me Wisconsin will be taking out some of their frustrations today, and I'm not too fearful that Rutgers getting rested with a week off is going to be the right stuff for getting an injection of tough and focused.

do my .... I agree with you...
BA..thanks..looking forward to hoops and your plays..

Lost in America...your right...I knew that but printed it wrong..lost in austin..my bad

Houston I think wins big..a great stat..Houston ranks last in the country in time possession...its because they play so fast and score fast...they avg 23 minutes...King is almost unstoppable...he has 9 scoring plays of +50 yds...they avg 540 yds..they beat a decent USF team last week 57-32..although Smoo played cinncy tough they had a big time problem slowing down Cinncy's freshmen qb...Smoo defense has big time trouble making open field tackles...well trying to catch the Coogs rb's wr's and King will be very tough... see a blowout..and I'm not sure if Oliver is playing today..He could be the No 1 NFL draft pick...but don't think they even need him...55-14..love Houston today...
