    NCAAF Week 8 Opening Line Discussion

    Thread was very profitable last week

    At first glance:

    No Reason SMU can't win

    Northwestern gonna put up points, back home after those last 2 opponents...

    Michigan St -24.5??? That's way to high

    Gary Patterson plus the paydirt start is always worth a look

    Mizzou gonna pull of the UGA/UF sweep? Doubtful

    Syracuse should struggle stopping the run on the road

    Ohio couldn't be laying enough, should be atleast -21

    Temple a Favorite???

    Why can't IU hang with MIchigan after that 4OT game?

    BYU/Houston has 17-13 written all over it

    Johnny Football laying too much

    Can UCLA play a physical game on the road? Doubt it

    Washington/ASU gonna break the LED's on the scoreboard

    Georgia ST getting a ton of AGAIN!

    Iowa St +31

    USC/ND first to 17 wins

    Still surprised FSU is favorite on the road

    Wazzou + 38.5 Books are just done with the quack attack, completely lost

    Post any plays when I look at the games tomorrow...

    Too hungover now

    South Carolina -6 at Tennessee is easily the best wager on the board. If South Carolina beat Arkansas by 45, are you telling me that they cannot beat a mediocre Tennessee team by 7 or more?

    For me initially looking at the lines this is going to be my most difficult week to handicap. At first glance I am going to look deeper into the Florida State game, and the South Carolina game. I really like as I expressed on another thread, Florida State, as I consider them a top 5 team in the country.

    I agree with you Vinnie as I feel they have a decent chance of staying with Louisville, but I am not high on either team.

    Clemson is #3 and Florida State #5 in most polls. Florida State has not defeated Clemson in Death Valley in 5 years. I think colemson has enough to cover, but the game will be very close.

    Louisville lost any hope of going to the NC game, and Bridgewater lost any hope of a Heisman Trophy with their terrible performance Thursday Night against Rutgers. The AAC is a terrible conference and for Louisville to play like they did is just terrible.

    Illinois +10.5 @ Home against Wisconsin looks good.

    USC +2.5 looks like a trap? Who wants to bet them at +2.5 here.

    Tennessee +7

    South Carolina coming off a comfortable win with a trip to a top 15 Mizzou team on the docket next week. South Carolina will likely win, but I'll be surprised if it isn't close game

    Is North Carolina really that bad?

    Miami is very overrated right now.

    Missouri took action at 3.5 so I'd beware on that one even with Frankie out for the year

    Correct. Just checked the missouri game and saw FL -3. Not sure what to make of that other than an injury line.

    Shooting for a middle might be the best approach on that game. Florida only gonna go up imo so -2.5 +3.5 looks good or else stay out. Not gonna find Florida -2.5 probably but if you can I'd bigday pound.

    I am not saying S Carolina should or should not cover. The point here is Tenn is a MUCH BETTER team than the Hogs on both sides of the ball.

    i've been break-even to moderate loss the last 4 weeks after fantastic start and great entire last year... so take my picks FWIW..

    georgia -9 (i'm on a FADE these small private schools. they made cover of sports illustrated preview for gosh sakes... vandy is the fade)

    USC +2.5 @ ND

    rice -17.5 @ NMS

    WSU +37.5 @ oregon like this one alot.

    kansas +24 @ Okla.. i think kansas will be good ATS TAIL sometime soon

    not comprehensive list, just a few i saw in a rush to get out the door.

    Playing at Tennessee is one of the toughest places to play at. They've proven they can be competitive at home this year. It's TN or no play as far as I'm concerned but I was 3-8 yesterday (8-10 on the week but def didn't bet even units -10 unit week).
