Interesting lines. Conference play is starting in most cases and this is where everything changes... teams that are 0-4 still have a chance to make the playoffs because they could still win their conference. Lines are tighter is some places and I do not have totals up... yet.
Ohio -4.5: I posted this already under my early play. Really think EIU is just being given too much credit.
Indiana State -4: Indiana State playing very good ball with the upset of Ball State. They have played 3 games including 2 vs FBS and have NO turnovers. Liberty defense is being hyped as a top 10 pass defense but they have not played any real offensive juggernauts. Norfolk State is not good offensively and Bryant was ranked because of their defense. I believe Mike Perish and the Sycamores get the job done vs the Fighting Turner Gills.
Garner Webb +12: Citadel has played a tough schedule but still should not be laying DD here. Gardner Webb is playing their 3rd triple option team of the season so they are not unfamiliar with what Citadel is bringing. Gardner looked great last week vs Wofford and maybe this GW offense is waking up... I am not going to call for the outright upset here but it is a real possibility.
Western Carolina+6.5: This line opened at 7.5 and is moving: Furman offense has scored 14 points the last 2 games.. both losses. The problem is their defense is playing great but they are not forcing turnovers. WCU is playing decent ball and has the defense to win this game. I had this line has Furman -2 but even that line was ??? because Furman offense is bad.
Mercer -2 : Playing against the VMI defense here. This is going to be a shootout. Both teams get up and down the field but Mercer defense is better and they will win this one. 55 to 41
San Diego -9: Marist is bad. Their defense is not great, their offense is not great, their special teams are not great. The Torreros are 9-0 vs Marist and I believe after that HUGE win last week by USD over Princeton that they will travel to the east coast and take care of business. I see a final of 33-9.
William and Mary vs Stony Brook: Play this under 36 if we get a total. I also think The tribe handles SB but I do not want to lay DD on homecoming. SB is going to move away from the 2 QB system and Bedell is going to be back tomorrow (though I think he will still be limited). I expect Tribe are going to win 22 to 9
Montana State -20: North Dakota offense is bad. their defense is good. In the 2nd half of the game vs SB the UND offense had an amazing 11 yards... They still won. However, they are now playing one of the best offenses in the Big Sky and maybe FCS. I expect the Bobcats to score 35 at least.... Can UND score enough to stay in that? NO
SEMO+7
Illinois State -43
Western Illinois +12 and Under 48
Grambling State +160
Totals:
I do not have posted numbers yet but I wanted to throw these out
Lehigh over 68
Fordham over 65
Norfolk State under 46
Furman Under 36
If I get actual posted numbers then I will do write ups on the totals.
