Troy St (+23.5) over LSU

Troy got caught last week looking ahead to this game. D.T. McDowell very talented freshman will get the start for the Trojans. This team has a very solid defense that has keep them in a lot of games! The defense will keep this team with in three scored of LSU! The great thing about this game is the Arkansas St game between both teams. LSU blew them out while Troy lost. LSU will come out over confident . Not saying they won't win but Troy has too much class and drive just to roll over for them. I see this closer to a 17 point win for the tigers.

Florida (-24) over Miss St
Big play for me
Miss st has just been crushed by teams this year. Losing to Auburn by 29, Maine by 2 (Maine and in football not hockey!!!) Vanderbilt by 18,UAB by 14 and LSU by 51. This leads me to believe Miss st is going to have a tough time playing against Leak and the Gators. If the gators get ahead early as they normally DO, MS will not be as determined to come back as Arkansas and LSU did on the gators. This game screams blow out to me. BAD NEWS Florida, has no reason to get up for this game when they have to travel to Georgia next week.

Still Florida leads the SEC in scoring (35.8) points and passing yards (270) per game. Gators are still only allowing 18.8 points and 216 passing yards per game. The QB for Miss St has knee problems which will limit his mobility. Florida should generate some turn-overs. Even looking ahead talent (especially showboating, the gators like to step on you while your down) should be enough to propel the gators to this cover.

Looking at a few more (Bosie & Cal), not sure they will make the play card (doubt it - too many already :rolleyes: ). If they do I'll post.

Adding
Boise (-9) over Fresno
Not sure if the funk the bulldogs are in is from this game or what. The ability to pas will help this team beat the bull dogs. Don't see the cowboys stopping if they get ahead on this team. Boise has killed me but I have to ride them on the smurf turf, in a game that should showcase the best of both team.

N'Western (+12.5) over Wisc
The injuries up front should limit the pressure the wildcats see. Still the Badger defense will be ready to stop N'Western! This should be a Badger win but 12 points is too much for this game.

NC State (+7.5)
Defense should be enough for the wolf-pack to keep it close if not pull off the victory. NC State has played quick defenses before so they will ready for Miami. Miami on the other hand will not play out of the shotgun which hurts Berlin! The NC State defense at home feeds of the crowd to make it a game!

Small play
Mich +4 - have to think this game is a dog fight
Upset Iowa over PSU
