Hudson Valley area.....NY
Ga Tech -8 over Pitt ***
Is -10.5 now but got it in on wed..Pitt has played some real tough teams,Ok st and Penn St..but think Taquan M the GT qb is to much to handle...option at its best..

Purdue +10.5 over Mich **
Drinking the kool aid..this was a tune up game for Mich early in the season in the B-10..Broham has his kids playing good despite the schedule...think the blue win but this will be a lot closer...history tells us no and its the same old Purdue..

Penn St -11 over Iowa ****
Penn St -12.5 over Iowa **
I played it early and it was -12.5..now -11
Iowa beat North Texas but didn't cover..if you watched that game it was ugly for Iowa..they scored 2 td's early when Iowa fumbled in the NT 1 yd..knee was clearly down before the fumble... ball hit the pylon for a touchback..Iowa was 2nd and one but officials blew the call..no td..then Wadley the Iowa rb breaks one for 78 yds...at the 15 yd line he starts "high stepping" and goes in untouched for a td...ref threw flag..not a celebration but a 15 yd penalty from the point of his high stepping..another 7 off the bd..i had Iowa -21.5...Frentz benches Wadley on the next 4 series ..puts him in the 2nd half..two plays later Wadley nicks his knee and doesn't play at all...Foster the backup comes in...he injures his knee and is out..also out today..Iowa has lost 2 OL but Wadley is playing..NT has a terrible OL and yet they were up 14-10 at half..they gave fine time to step in the pocket and pass....also NT's top RB Wilson ran well vs DL of Iowa..NT actually played better in this loss...Think Iowa is going to have a tough time vs Penn st..if North Texas could hang with them for awhile think Lions qb and top rb could have big days...and defense....Wadley and the TE from Iowa are solid...just think Lions watched the NT game and can attack the Hawkeyes..like the line moving down...but Wadley is the real deal...

Tenn -28 over UMass **
With all the heat the Tenn coach took following the Florida game..not sure if you heard his post game..." we don't have a prevent defense" etc...omg The 1st thing I looked up after his press conf was who are they playing next. Umass...poor Umass..this guy will run up the score on anybody they can...

Neb -11 over Rutgers **
Both teams get beat by MAC teams..NIU embarrasses Neb at home and EMU beats Rutgers... Neb AD is fired...RU is really bad...think Big Red playing Scarlet Red cover...

LSU -21.5 over Cuse **
LSU in recovery phase...after getting whipped...have way to much talent for the Orangemen to hang around..

Smoo -4.5 over Ark St ***
Sutton is unstoppable...a game breaker..Mustangs have problems but have the best wr in college...

Tulane -2.5 over Army **
"Panaro Tip".. was eating at my Panero in Newbugh...in walks in 4 senior Cadets...they sit right next to me..I ask them about the Ohio St game..they all laugh..one of them tells me even though they lost big they are hurting...when you go to classes you can tell what cadets are on the football team..because the entire team is limping...he said Ohio St players hit so hard throughout the game...every body is the walking wounded..black and blue on everyone...players were saying they were never hit that hard in their life...lol Tulane coach knows the wish bone..he coached defense with Monken at Ga southern..Army got lucky and beat Buffalo...beat undermanned fordham..Tulane has stud rb in Hillard..Wave lost to Navy 23-21 lyr and did a decent job on wishbone... Army'sBradshaw the qb is solid not fumbling but he cannot pass at all...Army is 4-18 in 3 games..for 36 yds...brad had guys wide open vs Buffalo and over threw them..he has " misfired 13-17 passes..."...you have to throw once in awhile to keep teams honest...I'm sure they worked on that all week...Army has 2 db's out after the Ohio St game.. so I'm going with the Panera tip...they are so beaten up,on the road, and Bradshaw can't throw..small play..for green wave.

TCU +13 over Ok St **
Pokes just beating up everyone...think frogs defense can slow down the "freight" train a little because the frogs have a Hill that's pretty steep..

North Texas -12.5 over UAB ****
Although NT should of lost by 35 to Iowa and got some big time breaks they looked decent up 14-10 at half...Wilson is a big time rb..he can break one anytime he touches the ball...and Fine the midget Qb had no pressure and stepped in the pocket and threw some nice balls to his wr's... they dropped a few but he was on target..defense is very athlete and quick..think NT can beat UAB by 2 td's or more...UAB beat Coastal last week..but have no run defense..Wilson scores a few

UTSA -12 over Texas St *****
Love this game... Tx St played Appa St tough last week...but think Roadrunners have way to much talent at almost every position...UTSA doesn't have to travel much..maybe 45 minutes to an hour up I-35..Wilson the coach is out recruiting a lot of HS Texas kids..he returns 14 starters and has his top Qb and rb back...UTSA defense is pretty solid and Bobcats offense is in trouble and lost their top qb who graduated...so is defense that last yr gave up 54,42,64,40,47,50,40,etc they won 2 games last yr and one was to Incarnate Word..think Roadrunners could get caught napping or look ahead..they have the power house North Texas in a few weeks..naw that won't happen..

last week 2-7 -14*'s
overall 18-18 even *'s

add Tenn -13 2nd half...**
