ytd 16-12 +440

2 MAC home dogs:

CMU +16.5 220/200

On paper BGU should have this spread easily covered by hafltime but I think the Chippewa's keep this w/in the #. 3rd straight road game for BG. I know most teams have done well ATS in that spot lately they are 1-3 ats their last 4 3rd straight away game scenarios. Last 7 games vs CMU they are only 1-6 ats including a 20 pt win last year at home (non-cover) and 10 pt road win the yr before (non-cover). And last 2 years BGU teams were at least as good, and arguably better, than this years team.

Ohio +9 220/200

I know the stats may be misleading with Ohio having the best 'D' in the MAC and Marshall struggling on offense when you look at who these teams have played. Still think 9 pts for the home team is too many. Marshall is only 9-16 ats in MAC road games since 1998. Considering they are off games vs Ohio St, GA, and the espn televised game vs MIA (O) I just don't see them being too up for this game.

Really feel I will go 1-1 today at worst. But those are usually famous last words when I have felt that way in the past. We'll see how it plays out..gl to all today!

Think you are the only one taking CMU. The planet is on BG. I don't have the stones to take the dog here.

thanks IO!

tough to go against BG, especially considering what they did to Temple last week. But it just seems like a tough spot for BG, being its their 3rd straight road game. Also it seems to me teams off a huge scoring output are usually not good bets the following week. Don't have the xact #'s, and of course BG is used to scoring a ton of pts on their opponents. However I really think CMU gets within double digits here as, yardage wise, their defense is about even with the falcons. And if the majority is indeed on BG then I like knowing I am on vegas' side on this one. Also have a strong lean to Penn St but this is it for now. gl w/ ur plays!
