FIU -6.5 over North Texas ******* strong play
I've been hitting almost every week my anti- North Texas play.Again this week the Mean Green are in big trouble.
ESPN ranked there top 10 Bottom ten teams of the year...NT ranks No 1
The worst defense in the country.Last week they lost to Rice 77-20. Rice had 56 pts at the half.NT has won 2 games in the past two yrs and its been almost a year from there last win.NT defense has given up 219 pts and 1,953 yds in 4 games.Offense has scored 55 pts but there defense has given up 54 pts. That is pretty amazing..Defense avg is 488 yds per game..ranked last in the country....Pass def..315th..last...pts allowed 54...last in the country,etc,etc
They have 9 freshman that play a lot together..3 seniors...and one of them Miller there top DL is hurt...a true frosh will take his place...in fact the DL has no sacks,cannot pressure anyone,etc..also KR is a new frosh who is starting...NT kicker Knotts has missed 3 extra pts and a FG...he hits line drives..2 of those kicks hit his own off. lineman. I can't make this up...
FIU is one of the weakest teams also going the longest w/o a win in D-1. But lyr they broke the streak...guess who they beat...yep.. NT
FIU upset Toledo last week 35-17..and the week before gave So Fl the scare of there life 19-7.FIU was beaten big time by Iowa and Kansas but there last 2 games there defense held Tol and So FL to 19 and 17 pts.
NT offense is also in trouble.Spread attack isn't working with no pass protection.No running attack,etc..
FIU has McCall a pretty good qb who beat NT lyr breaking the 23 game losing streak. Mccall threw for 3 td's.They run a spread attack w/a TE and an H-back.NT defense will have trouble stopping that.
FIU defense has almost everyone back from lyr including 4 seniors on the DL...
I have this line at -10 to -12....and its -6.5...FIU will win this in double figures...its the weakest team NT will play but FIU is better then there record...and NT at home gives them no advantage what so ever...strong play FIU..
be back with Army-Tulane and a few more later in the week..
Any Philly people here ... tomorrow Mayor Nutter is visiting an inner city Philly ele school. Bache-Martin Ele...my daughter who is a kindergarten teacher there has been selected as the teacher who will have the Mayor visit her classroom and read a story to her students...she will be on the 5.00 and 6.00 o'clock news...

FIU -6 over North Texas line dropped a half pt..

BYU -29 over Utah St ***** strong play

BYU OL will give Hall all the time in the world.Aggies will not be able to pressure BYU. Hall has 2 good WR's in TE 6'5 Pitta and 6'2 Collie and a solid RB in Unga. This has a 35-0 1st half score and a 55-10 final score written all over it.

Tomr like and will explain more
Illinois +2 over Michigan
Tulane -20 over Army
Stanford +6.5 over ND
Ball St -7 over Toledo

FIU -6 over NT ****** strong play
Enough said on this game.But on thur. NT's 2nd best offensive player WR Dribel quit the team. That is a big loss to there spread off. He is being replaced by 2 frosh that have 3 catches among them. NT has so many holes on defense with freshman replacing players.Now they lose an good offensive star.

NT-FIU under 53.5 ***
FIU defense is tough...offense a question mark but vs NT defense is so bad

Tulane -20 over Army *
under 42 ***
Tough to read army.They lost to Tex AM 21-17.Defense had 7 plays that AM lost yards..at the end army had a chance..is AM that bad or army improved.Army finally found an option qb in Bowden.But Tulane defense could shut him down armys others backs are avg.Tulane DL are so much more athletic with speed.Tulane lost to bama and ecu...Anderson is solid at Rb for the wave..Tulane defense is ranked 9th in the country...like the under a lot..small play on the line.Forgot to mention revenge is a factor after lyrs hail mary play got Army into ot and then Army won.tulane led 17-7 with 6 minutes and lost 20-17 to army. A big time bitter loss for the wave.
