YTD: 9-3
Nice start to the season and with the UNC pick Thursday, nice start to the week. Looks like it will be raining all day here in Toledo, so it will be a perfect day to watch a boatload of college....and off course gamble! Here's what I have so far with writeups following in ensuing posts:
CMU -3 over Ohio
Navy +2 over Duke
UB -6 over Temple
GT +7 over VT
So Carolina +7 over UGA
UM -2 over ND, 2nd H
Arky St -1 over So Miss
Miss St +10.5 over Auburn
UW +21.5 over Oklahoma
OSU +11.5 over USC
NM +11 over Arizona
N Texas +42.5 over LSU
CMU -3 at Ohio U. Central has been the premier team in the MAC for a couple years running now. Did you know that in the last three years, CMU is 19-5-1 ATS in league play? They are the two-time MAC champion and in that reign, they are 15-2 SU, 14-2-1 ATS in league play! The only games the Chips have lost the last two years in league play have come towards the end of the year, when they dropped a game after they had clinched their division and a week before the more important league title game. Those games are almost worth throwing out of the equation because of those circumstances. I see no reason to get off CMU in MAC games and will continue to play on them until they start skidding or the price becomes too steep. But, I dont think they will start skidding. They have 8 starters back on both sides of the ball, and on offense they return their record setting QB, 4 starters on the line, all the leading rushers and a pair of wideouts who caught at least 90 balls last year. A couple other technical stats for the Chips: They are 9-1 ATS in league openers and over the last three years they are 6-1 ATS in lined games after tackling a foe from a BCS league. Despite getting smoked by UGA last week, the Chips are used to getting thumped in those spots, yet rebounding in a positive way the following week. CMU is also 5-1-1 as a true road favorite in MAC play during this run. Everybody is excited about OU after their near miss against the Buckeyes last week, but you have to question if they're ready to play this game. Isn't there a good chance they're still day dreaming about their near miss while also lapping up their press clippings in the aftermath. OU's D is tough, but I think CMU will have success against the Bobcats with their experience. They blew out OU 37-10 and 31-10 in 2005 and 2006 and have not played since. Like I said earlier, until they start losing are the prices become too steep, I will stay on CMU in their conference games and hope it turns out as another amazing money maker.
I'm going to hit the gym and let the rest of the card float around my brain. I will be back and post the rest of my plays while the GameDay show is on.
