Last year the Nugget took a hit because they really liked Northwestern, and injuries decimated that team. Northwestern went 3-8 ATS. This year the lines are much tighter. I played over 30 games last year, while only playing 14 this season. This season I think that Auburn will not be aws good as they were last season, so I faded them twice. I look for good seasons out of South Carolina and Mississippi. I also faded Texas A&M because of a terrible defense that has already lost two starters from last year's unit and many skill position players from the offense including Manziel. I tool N.C. State and two big pointspreads. +30 at home against Florida State where they are 3-1 S/U, 4-0 ATS in their last 4 meetings in Raleigh, and +20 at North Carolina, where State is 2-2 S/U and 2-1-1 ATS in their last 4 meetings in Chapel Hill. I like Miami + 14 1/2 points at home against Florida State. Miami has an extra week to prepare for Florida State. I also think that the line could drop significantly if Miami is still in the ACC Coastal hunt.
