I went 6-3 last week
MSU @ -5
Purdue
Purdue +5
-Okay I know Purdue has not covered a single game this year and all trends point to MSU to cover but I am going on a hunch. I have watched Purdue the last few weeks and by saying watched I have bet against them. This team is due and the fact that they are getting points at home I just plain like it. These are two very unimpressive teams in the Big Ten but I will say it now MSU will win at home next week against Penn St.
South Flordia @
Rutgers -3
Rutgers -3
-Rutgers have a solid football team but are a little banged up for this weeks game. S. Florida is terrible on the road only averaging 12.3 points a game and their defense gives up an average 27 points a game on the road. The Rutgers at home only have one loss this at home this season and score an average of 30 points a game. Rutgers should be able to cover 3 at home against a bad defense.
Iowa @ -2.5
Northwestern
Northwestern +2.5
-Tough game to call but I like Nortwest getting the points at home. Northwest defense is god awful giving up almost 33.2 points a game at home but their offense scores so quickly the defense is going to give up the points. Now Iowa on the road scores only an average of 14.3 points a game but I am sure that will be a little higher considering Northwest's poor defense. Last week Northwest just lost to a better team and Iowa just has not impressed me this season and add this loss to this preseason overrated team.
South Carolina @
Arkansas -4
Arkansas -4
-This could be a little off considering SC win over the underachiever Tenn this season. But I am not buying SC sucks especially their offense on the road only scoring an average 12.7 points a game while defense lets up an average 26.7 points a game. Now Ark at home puts up points an average of 33.5 a game. Arkansas lost to SC last year and they are going to be hungry for the win. Ark should cover this one easy.
Akron @ -3
Ball St
Akron -3 SCRATCH
- Not sure if I am going to play this or not. I like Akron an average team but Ball St is awful. I like the low line and Ball St might as well not even put a defense on the field. Ball St gives up an average of 42.9 a game.
Texas A&M @
Texas Tech -16.5
Tech -16.5
-I have been on Tech all year expect when they played Texas. I love their offense. They score an amazing 57.6 points at home and their defense gives up only 13.6 points at home. A&M can score but their defense just gives up too many points on the road (31.3). A&M won last year but I think they wont be able to stop Tech's passing attack.
Tenn @
ND -8
ND-8 SCRATCH
-Basically Tenn is one of the biggest underachieving teams of the year. They have the talent but for some reason they can't pull it together. ND is going smack Tenn right in the mouth. Tenn only scores average of 13.3 points on the road and while ND scores about 40 points on average at home. Tenn does have a very solid D but with their offensive of struggles they will not be able to keep up with ND.
Texas @
Baylor -28
Texas -28
-Baylor gets blown out of the stadium. Texas 6-1 as favorite. I just can't see Texas coming out flat after OSU last week. Texas probably will be up by 3 TDs by the end of the first half.
Illinois @
OSU O/U 55
Over 55
-OSU has hit their stride offensively and should put another week of big points against this team. Illinois gives up an average of 40 points a game. This should go way over and Illinois will be good for a few late TDs against our second team defense.
Miami @ O/U 40.5
V-Tech -6.5
Miami +6.5 Under 40.5 CHANGING TO VTECH
-Love Miami to win this one outright. There is not scoring much going on either. Miami defense only allows 14.3 points on the road while Tech only gives up 7.7 at home. Marcus hasn't seen a defense this good all season and Miami will force him out of the pocket and Miami speed on defense will keep him making plays with his feet. This will be a smash mouth football game and the line should be around three points.
Wisconsin @ O/U 54
Penn State
Under 54
-I think the line is a little high on this but I think Penn State at home could win by a couple TDs. Penn State has held opponents to an average 13.2 and this will be another smash mouth game and I just can't see either team putting up a lot ton of points. The line on this game is just a little fishy.
I know a lot of chalk but confindent in my research. Any and all comments welcomed.
Good Luck to all!
