Coastal +9 over Laf **
Think red shirt qb Mccall can keep this close. last yr Chants lost to laf 48-7 but year before won 30-28..there option style offense is tough to stop.Lewis and Mitchell are stars back from last yrs for Cajuns ..just think Chants keep this close in the " Fun Conf"
Will back for Navy,EC,Mid Tenn -North Texas,Tex St -So Bama and am going to the UTSA-Army game saturday game. One of my buddies from Army asked me " are you to far from San Antonio to go to the game. I told him I'm 90 minutes away so I will be a guest of Army but think I might have to take the Roadrunners +7 or 8
Back later in the week

Box, I'm looking at Texas St for another play; I should have listened to you last week (fading them). Are you backing them or S Alabama, or neither?

Cruncher..taking Tx St vs So Bama
Coach has me wondering . he hasn't named a starter Vitt or McBride..he will name him on Friday, it has to be McBride though. although they are 1-4 they did lose on ot to Smu, UTSA and Troy. I knew Troy would win big but again it was that memory of being at last yrs game .. They almost beat BC and lost by a FG with under 2 minutes. They also came back and almost beat SMU. Troy was another animal . They beat So Bama last yr 30-24. Those 34 points were there 2nd highest points scored all last yr. I like the Tx St coach Spavital.. I know when you hear him on the radio your not as objective as you should be. But he bought in a lot of juco's and transfers and a nice qb from memphis .

Thanks Box, not for sure what I will do, but don't like going against you, especially on the teams you keep a close watch on and/or see in person.

SMU -6.5 over Tulane ****
Smoo lost their best player wr Roberson for the year. A 6'1 upper body built stud with speed great hands and blocks . When I saw him a few weeks ago vs Tx St you could see he was a star. Just in the warmups alone you could tell. He did catch a bomb in that game but was open several other times but wasn't targeted.But watching him block downfield was more impressive. An NFL future wr But he re injured his knee again and is out for the season, Their other star running back TJ McDaniel is also out for the season.. So Smoo lost there top wr and rb.. but wait .. Ulysses who did come into the Tx St game and looked impressive is explosive and no longer a backup. He has scored 7 td's and although Smoo lost some depth in their rb's Ulysses Bentley is the real deal and opponents will have a tough time trying to stop him The Smoo Ol is excellant. They give Buechele time to pass and open up nice holes for Ulysses and co. Smoo has Grandson the TE who is one of the best in the conf. Think Buechele will throw to him more now that Roberson is out But Smoo has depth at Wr with Gray the former track star who Sonny D says " is the fastest wr in the country" He has 14 receptions and 3 td's so far. They also have Rice and have red shirt frosh Wiggins and Ark transfer Jackson. Think Grey and Rice will see a lot more balls coming there way and esp Grandson. Think Tulane defense will have big time problems stopping the Ponies offense.. last yr Smoo won 37-20 Tulane is 2-2 beating So bama and So Miss and losing to Navy and Houston. Ans lets not forget Tulane will be seeing maybe the best qb they will see all year in Beuchele and with a solid Ol will have time to throw . Think Ponies win this by 2 tds or more..

Houston +5.5 over BYu **
BYU almost lost to a tough UTSA last week . And UTSA played a 3rd string qb ..BYU has Wilson and co but I think the Coogs who woke up vs Tulane keeps this game close Tune the qb whose brother started for North texas keeps this close Coogs have a lot of speed . small play though
Back later with Army-UTSA Tex St- So Bama, North Tex- Mid Tenn

Box, that 3rd and 39 conversion by Tulane was killer. Defense would have been better taking a 15yd PI there.

so far 1-2 this week not to good going to San Antonio as a guest of Army for the UTSA-Army game .. Will wear my Army Black Nite hat,to warm for my Army hoodie and will sit in the army section but quietly will cheer for UTSA +8
UTSA +8 over Army ****
Army and UTSA could have there 3rd string qb's starting today. Army's Anderson might start and be ready . UTSA Harris and backup Adkins are out so LSU transfer Narcisse starts last week and almost beats BYU. He was 17-20 with 3 td's UTSA has a good run defense and are athletic. They still have Sincere McCormick who I think is one of the best rb's in the country. Think Army defense will not see a more talented back all year.
Army is 4-1 playing an easy schedule ,Only loss was to Cincinnati Last week they played 0-3 Citadel and just escaped 14-9 .. Army couldn't do anything on offense vs a weak Citadel defense. With Anderson out and McCoy there best rb also out Army could not get its wishbone working. Think the Roadrunners are more athletic and hopefully watched the Citadel tape this week to see how an inferior team stopped the Army attack . Playing vs a wishbone with only a week to prepare is very tough on opposing teams. last yr Army won 31-13 but think Army even though was 4-8 had a better team and UTSA has won a few games and almost beat BYU last week And after watching BYU last night come back and destroy Houston ,Roadrunners have to be proud of that loss.

So Bama -2.5 over Tex St **









Really liked the Bobcats but Jags qb is back Trotter. Before Trotter got hurt he had 847 yds in his 1st 2 games. last week UAB beat Bama 42-10 w/o Trotter. Last yr So Bama lost 30-28 at Tex St. Trotter was 13-17 for 164 yds and 2 td's. They have a solid rb in Davis and a standout wr. Tx st has McBride a dual threat qb with great pocket awareness some solid wr;s and decent rb's I was taking the Bobcats +2.5 but the return of Trotter made me switch .. So Bama runs ball control and tex St defense will have trouble with it Close game though.

BC +12.5 over VT **
Like the qb from BC to keep this close

Mid Tenn -North Texas over over 72 **

NT can score but cannot play defense. MT the same 1st team to 45 win the game 2nd team to score 40 loses the game but covers the over.
Troy -29.5 over EKU **
Gs Southern -31 over Umass ****
just bet against UMass 3 weeks ago their season was over Then they were told " we're on in 3 weeks ..we play Georgia.or Georgia East,or South or State " we really don't care we are playing somebody. Last year they were the worst team in the country. On defense last yr they gave up 69, 63,63,63,58,56,56,44 and 45. But the big question is who do they play next week There are no free teams to play so as we speak they are looking for some teams to play.
went 1-2 this week so far . I got to find my Army Black Nite hat and hook up with my Army buddy at the Alomodome .. I guess I have to fake my cheering for Army but know my money is on the Roadrunners
dillyboy your right that 3rd down was a killer

At Alamodome. Half timev14-10. Their is a reason why narcissi is 3 rd string. He has missed some wide open wrs. Not sure why sicncere isn?t getting the ball more. Army put in Evans their 4 th string qb and he looks better. Army playing good d. But utsa I think should win this outright. The line was + 9. Utsa needs some stops If they get them think they win out right
