I?ve reread the secret, have done some daily affirmations and am pretty sure that last weekend was just some bad dream I had. No more funky mojo

Nevada actually played pretty well on offense against the Irish until they had to turn into a passing team. They were able to get positive yards through the middle, but they had a lot of negative plays that killed drives. They?re still the same team that they were on offense a year ago . . . and on defense, but Colorado State doesn?t appear to have the firepower to keep up. I didn?t see the game that CSU had against Weber State last Saturday, but Weber State did hold the ball for 40 minutes which signifies to me that Weber State just took what Colorado State gave them. If they play the same type of bend but don?t break defense against an offense as explosive as Nevada?s, it won?t be close.

Nevada -3

Had the Maryland collapse not happened to Cal last year, I?d be a lot more concerned with this game. Cal has been looking at proving themselves on the road since the offseason and there is a huge talent/speed gap between the two teams.

Cal -14

Still not sold on Purdue and they?ve got 2 back to back covers. Just think it?s going to be tough to cover this type of number with the defense that they have .

Northern Illinois

I like Nev and NIU. I 've been leaning the other way on Cal, but your sound logic regarding the Maryland debacle makes me think I had it wrong GL:weed:

Where it is real F ing COLD
As a Gopher fan and I am shocked that they beat the Force but the Force is a running team and that is the Gopher strength on D. Now has for the pass D this team gets scorched year after year and I see Cal rollling in this one as well.
