Here's what we thought on Saturday and where we're at for today.
Saturday
Virginia +19.5 **
Best home dog of the bunch. New Trojan offensive line vs. a retooled defensive Virginia Defense. 7 top picks gone from USC vs. 1 pick gone from Virginia. Most like USC.
Tulsa -13.5 ***
Under the radar game. Tulsa has star power at RB, Receiver and Defensive End. 9 starters on Offense for Tulsa. UAB has 9 starters on the D that spotted 35 points last year.
TCU -6.5 **
Lobos got a suspect Pass rush D + one starter returns on O line - top two receivers from 2007 = a loss by more than 6.5. TCU crushed them the last two seasons. Oh boy!
Auburn -26 ****
Why is Hawaii +35.5 @ Florida and UL Monroe +26 @ Auburn? Let?s see, SEC?s best D vs. Sun belt?s best D?SEC Defense wins games & the front 5 of Auburn are back.
BC -9.5 ****
Typo. BC returns 3D linemen. BC was 11-3 & Kent was a solid 3-9. Everyone loves smash mouth football and a blowout to boot!
Clemson -4.5 **
Alabama has more to prove and Clemson has more to lose. Alabama returns 13 vs. 16 for Clemson. Tigers defense is no match for a 18TD/12INT Crimson QB.
Mizzou -9 **
Tigers at home, has got the returning Heisman candidate which means points. Mizzoui?s got 16 returnees. Tigers beat ?em by 6 LY. Illini w/o Rashard TY is a no brainer.
Utah State +12.5 *
The rebel O playmakers are back. UState lost a QB, a top receiver and their D was 116th in tackles for a loss. UNLV has more to bowl for. Both teams suck!
Sunday
Wildcats +3.5 *
Both lost star QB?s, but UK has the more experienced O line. UK has 4 rushing talents vs. Louisville?s 7 D returnees. A gifted corner at UK vs. inexperienced QB at UoL
Saturday
