Saturday values

[Joe De]

the best: underdogs

rutgers
penn st
colorado st
standford

the rest: underdogs

ohio u
nortwestern
florida...my personal pick
notre dame...line is going down substantially and erroding the luster of this pick
san jose state+30' or more...remember last year and surprised everyone by staying close in the game i expect they'll do the same this year.

favorites:

Navy-13
oregon-15

will have a laugher pick this week...currently 0-3

 

[baby arm]

Tulsa -7 vs. Rice
Auburn -7.5 vs. Ark
UCLA -6 vs. Washington St
Neb -2.5 vs. Baylor
Penn St +3 vs Mich
Alabama -11.5 vs. Ole Miss

What do you thing?

 

[Joe De]

tulsa ...looks to good to be true given up 7..but i think they cover..or at least show a cover

auburn...again looks to good to be true ..i show a cover

ucla....again as above

baylor at home is dangerous...i'd use in a teaser...nebraska is struglling on the road and the new style offense with coach callahan..i think they don't have their shit together to win on the road..too many better to throw money at

penn st. comes up a winner. from the numbers but michigan coach carr is extremely shrewd and will have the boys ready to do battle..i'd play a teaser on..maybe with baylor

alabama comes up a cover

wait do you like the Underdogs in those games, or the team you stated...for example, Col St is favored if my eyes are not mistaken...I like them

colo state at time of posting was at a pick-it

and yes the underdogs are predicted to win

these are only posted to raise the question of whether or not to play

 

[Dice34]

Wash. St. +6, might jump on it if #1 WR Jason Hill is back. He was a game-time decision last week and didn't play. 28 rec and 7tds is a big loss. They were still able to run for over 200yds.

Defense is struggling, but might of been over looking Stanford with showdown against UCLA.

This looks like last weeks Wisconsin(5-0) at Northwestern game.

Wouldn't surprise me if Bruins stumbled here.

you may have a valid point. ucla does not have a favorable record after home win, but Wash state coach Doba is a dope. hell he was beat by standford at home and a loss week before by oregon state which are bottom feeders. also the line, in my opinion,anticipated by vegas for ucla on having a down week by giving 6 points but the true line is 10 or 11 they should be laying. i still look for wash state to lose against a talented team and a better coach.
i don't like the game, will look elsewhere

 

[Dice34]

Yeah, i know what you mean about the coach being a dope. The loss to Oregon St. was just a colossal collapse by this Washington State team.

They can put up pts as shown by the 30-13 lead in the 2nd qtr they had against Ore St. 4 -2nd half ints by Alex Brink, blows the game, in which they are outscored by 28. Also, Jason Hill did not play the 2nd half.

You're right the line should be higher, thats why it seemed funny to me.

If Jason Hill comes back, it will make a big difference in the running game. UCLA won't be able to load up the box and stop Jerome Harrison who's 5th in the nation in rushing. Washington St. has the playmakers on Offense to keep this game competitive. Defense is weak, but maybe can get the ball bounce their way a few times. HC, well you know about him.

Side note: Harrison rushed for 247 yds against the bruins last year. With the team rushing for 321. Doesn't bode well for a team giving up 209 ru yds a game, this year.

I look forward to this game, it should be a fun one to watch, atleast i hope so. Not sure if I will throw down on it yet.

Joe De, i was wondering if you have the time if you could explain your views on stanford being a live dog. i have yet to see them play but i'm not comfortable getting under a td vs arizona. arizona seems to be playing solid this year and i thought they'd be at least -7 at home vs stan this week, thanks!

 

[AR182]

joe,

i see you like rutgers....i played them also.

i just read in a jersey newspaper that schiano has named a freshman to start at qb vs. syracuse on saturday....

eventhough this qb is suppose to be very good. i don't like betting on teams that start freshmen qb's on the road.

any thoughts on this ?

thanks

arizona is a weak team vs standford on paper, both on offense and defense...
stanford should be getting points...
what bothers me on the game is standford lost to a 1-AA team....but beat Navy on the first game...could have been due to undisclosed injuries the week after the navy game to casue the loss to Cal-Davis.

i will admit zona looked good the 1st half in the usc game.

i go by the numbers and not how they looked the week before.....you can't distort the stats.

i'm aware schiano starting the new qb. does not both me .

again as in the previous post...the numbers come up so strong on this game favoring rutgers....what bothers me is the lineman vogt may not be up to par...that's my only concern

Joe,

What play is the LAUGHER this week?
