Looking at
Pitt -5 over Rutgers
Rutgers looked terible vs Temple in winning 16-6 missing the cover.They had 5 turnovers and didn't score a TD until there was 3 minuts left.RU is 4-2 and has had all 6 games decided by 11 pts or less.A car accident with 3 DB's occured after the game.All 3 are out.And a last minut fill in at OT last Sat. won't play either.RU has been hit with some tough injuries.Pitt who everyone had written off is 2-1 in the BE after beating BC in OT. BC defense got no sacks as Pitt OL dominated them rushing for 187 yds.Pitt ran for 177 yds vs BC and their defense is much better then RU's.
But Pitts secondary could have trouble stopping Hart.I had the line at -7 so I like the line.Pitts Qb Palko is another scrambler which causes big time problems for RU defense.
Will update the injuries during the week.

Other games I like
West Vir -16.5 over the Cuse. Marshall will be going to break McNabbs all time rushing mark for Qb's.How ironic its vs the Cuse.He needs 40 or 50 yds.I think he'll do that in the 1st half.Kay J comes back also and its Thur nite ,national TV,etc.Lyr on thur nite they almost beat Miami.Two yrs ago WV beat the Cuse at home 34-7. I see almost the same thing thur nite.WV is 3-0 ats in last 3.
They were ranked high,lost to VT but came back strong vs UConn.
Cuse has a set of RB's that are good.But WV is athletic and quick on defense.Cuse playing outside the dome.It's not 72 degree's.And there qb situation is bad.If he can't pass when there is no wind what will he do....outside

Oklahoma St st +3.5 over Mizzou
Texas AM -20 over Colorado *** strong play
La Tech -2 over UTEP
Toledo -25 over C.Mich blowout
Florida Atlantic -14 over UL Monroe
New Mex St +10 over North Texas

Last week was 3-5 and lost many boxes for the 2nd straight week.Need to rebound.Even my wins were for small plays.
Won with Army.Bobby Ross is god here in the Hudson Valley.Army was +16 over So Fl and won straight up 42-35.Jones scores 5 td's.There defense still needs help but he has this offense moving the ball.

arrow...mainly because I had the number at -7 or -8.
NT is playing at home.They beat Utah St by 8 away and Mid tenn by 9. They got blown away by all the other big time teams,Texas,etc.
New Mex St got blown away like North Texas by the Arkansas,Cal,UTEP, and New Mex.
But in the Sun Conf they lost to Troy by 4 and beat La-Laf by 3.
It's homecoming and NT has handled the Aggies in the past.But NT's defense is still suspect despite super frosh Jamario's running.
Not a big play.But NT with it's 3 championship teams the past 5 yrs beat the Aggies by 3,11,2,7 and lost by 13.
They have never blown them away and NT had much better teams.
I'll take double digits...Still have to check injuries,etc but I'm leaning...see a 24-17 or 28-21 score.NT wins...

West Vir -15 over Cuse * small play..
I know the line seems like a lot.Cuse is 5-0 ats,etc,etc
I think outside the dome they don't score.This yr vs good comp they scored 0 and 10 but that was vs Purdue and UVA.Lyr they scored 7,14,10 and 7 vs VT,Pitt,Miami and Rutgers.[also vs good comp though]
Cuse qb cannot run option.Is a drop back passer that has more int's then td's.Reyes last week was shut down by FSU despite Cuse playing great at home.
Coach Pasqua team runs,runs and runs with Reyes and Rhodes.Then there always in a 3rd and 6 or 7 and they have to pass.That spells trouble.
WV is penalized so much and that could be a big problem.
Small play tonite.Lyr WV won in the dome by 11.Colson,Marshall and co will be able to move the ball.Henry will outjump and catch a few and maybe Kay-Jay breaks a few big ones..
