    Razz,

    sorry we'll be against eachother in this one...yeah, I think SDSU closes as a 2-3 point dog here...justifiably so though IMO...

    Hate your username, like the play. I'm personally waiting, because I think they may close as the dog here.

    I haven't even really looked too indepth on this game just yet. Although, i'm a little curious on how Chuck Long will do this year. I'm just not convinced he's head coach material just yet.

    Redsoxnation,

    for one they have the better coach in Mike Price...I think Chuck Long's playcalling leaves a little to be desired (if you wacthed him call plays at OU)...also, slight edge in QB to UTEP, definite edge at WR to UTEP, SDSU probably has a slight edge at RB, edge to UTEP at kicker as well...defensively, these teams are very similiar, maybe a little more team speed from UTEP, but I'm not sure they're quite as physical as SDSU...

    bottom line is that it's just a game that sticks out to me...I expect it to be a dog fight for a half-to three quarters with UTEP pulling away late...GL...

    Transition into NCAA Week 1

    Still in MLB Mode, but I started looking at the lines for NCAA tonight. I developed a system last year for football which was very successful, but it factored in home field and off/def production. I startin usin it around week 5 so I could get a better feel on the production of each team.

    I am looking over the lines right now and I know ND, Ohio State, Texas, Michigan, USC, Nebraska all look to be huge public bets and I just dont' like taking those DD spreads in week 1. I always am a bit precautious in the opening weeks because weird upsets seem to happen. NFL Week 1 comes ot mind last season.

    There is 1 game that I am looking at right now.

    UTEP @ SDST -1.5

    I really like SDST laying 1.5 here. St played somes teams like TCU tough at home last year, I remember because I had TCU and it killed me. I did find some interesting stats regarding these two teams going head to head.

    UTEP is 0-7 SU and 2-5 ATS vs. SDST since 1989
    UTEP is 6-21-1 ATS on the road in September
    since 1991.
    UTEP is 4-11 ATS since 2000 in non-conference
    play.

    UTEP is shaping up to be a public play and at almost a pick 'em, I am leaning towards SD ST.

    Its gonna take me a week or so to transition into NCAA Football, because I have been in MLB Mode for so long, but I would love to hear anyone's thought and/or comments regarding this game.

    Thanks.
