i knew i should have quit after hitting lsu the first night of the season...

buffalo (+33) 1 unit. just the first of several terrible teams i'm taking today. always the recipe for success. :) anyways, the bulls are catching psu between nd and michigan. nittany lions have to be licking their chops to play michigan. won't be much focus on this game. final score 32-0.

eastern michigan (+13) 1 unit. continuing the trend. sure they're awful. but so is northern illinois so far this year. what a tough loss they are coming off of. up 31-14 going into the 4th quarter against southern illinois (division 1-AA. that's right, none of that college football championship division or whatever the f--k it is), they gave up 20 unanswered, including the gw touchdown with 22 seconds left. now they have to bounce back against a conference rival, laying nearly 2 touchdowns?

notre dame (+9) 1 unit. tough to take this bad nd squad, but how can you NOT take 9 points from michigan right now? the wolverines have been absolutely awful. nd got blown out by a georgia tech team who's strengths matched up PERFECTLY with nd's weaknesses. and then they lost at penn state in a game that really was closer than the final score indicated. this pains me to say it, but clausen looks like he's the real deal. incredibly poised for a true freshman. anyways... i expect nd to continue to improve while michigan continues to flounder. no pressure on THEIR freshman qb today. :)

louisville/ky over (77) 1 unit. ok, this is probably an overreaction to that ridiculous louisville/mid tenn st matchup. but seriously, why WOULDN'T there be more of the same in this game? ky has hit 50 in both of their games this year. last year saw 87 points between these 2 teams. who's gonna stop anybody?

boston college (+6.5) 2 units. georgia tech has played 2 scrimmages so far. they played a nd team that was nowhere near ready for gt's defense. and then samford. now they face an offensive line and qb that might be able to handle a blitz or two. tech's corners aren't used to having to cover receivers for more than 2 or 3 seconds. plus gt finally has to honor the threat of a running game. andre callender is averaging 6.5 yds/carry, and that is against 2 acc defenses. on the other side of the ball, bc should slow down tashard choice enough to put pressure on first year starter taylor bennett for the first time this year. this should be a close game coming right down to the wire.

colorado (+4.5) 1 unit. tough to trust these buffalos (buffaloes?). not a good team. but should the seminoles be laying points on the road against anybody? they were losing at home at halftime to UAB, for crying out loud. and they didn't exactly blow out the blazers in the second half, as the game was still tied before the last play of the 3rd quarter. now they travel out west before returning home to face alabama. have to take the points just on principle.
