I'll add some write ups later...
Illinois +15 over Penn State - I think Spang hit the nail on the head....two touchdowns is too many considering Penn State's competition. I also think that The Ilini are never out of it with their offensive weapons.
USC/Oregon State over 52 - This is a little bit of a flyer but here is my logic (or illogic)...I don't see Pete Carroll taking his foot off of the accelerator in the PAC 10, especially after the extra prep time. OSU has a very inexperienced front seven, and with the stable of athletes that USC has, they might not be able to keep the score down.
Minnesota/Ohio State over 47 - If Wells wasn't back I might have looked at the under. Tressel reverted back to his Tressel Ball ways without Wells, but I think that he has a great sense of comfort with Wells in the game. Add to that the fact that Minny should be able to move the ball...Ohio, USC, and Troy all did...and this should go over.
Central Michigan -6.5 over Buffalo - Buffalo might be in for a letdown after a good effort against Missouri. The Chips should be able to throw some points up on the board, so i like the small number.
Cincinnati -10 over Akron - I don't quite understand this line. Cincy is solid and the Rubber Bowl isn't exactly intimidating...unless you are walking around the surrounding area at night...so I look for The Bearcats to roll over a very inferior team.
Oregon/Washington State over 56 - Both teams can score at will and I just see a PAC 10 track meet developing.
Oklahoma/TCU over 55 - Oklahoma hasn't been held under 50 points yet, and even though TCU is much better competition, I still think the Sooner offense will light up the board again.
