Last week 3-2 (reference http://forum.sbrforum.com/college-fo...k-3-plays.html)
Ole Miss -3
Thursday Night Special here. For whatever reason, no one's buying into Ole Miss as a good team. Well, I have. They arguably have the best QB in the league in Jevan Snead and a very underrated coach in Nutt. The Rebels have something to prove here.
Ohio +21.5
Tennessee played well against Florida, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. It's obvious after the past 2 weeks that the Vols have little trust in their signal caller. I see this as a fairly low scoring affair, and no reason this line should be as high as it is. Not to mention an obvious let down game after all of the hype around the Florida game. Oh hey, and Ohio has more wins than Tennessee... Take the points.
Fresno St. +16.5
I will wait on this line because I see it getting to 17, but that's my personal opinion on how I think the bets will come in. In any case, I would play this all the way down to 14 because while Cincinnati is the better team, Fresno St has been competitive in all of their games and has a very nice run game.
Kentucky +850 (money line)
Too many red flags here not to give this a shot. Even without the red flags, I think that too many people are just punching Florida in for a perfect season. You can take +22 on the spread if you like, but I really like the possibility of an upset here, especially given the odds. Florida players apparently have "flu-like symptoms" and people don't see how good an offense Kentucky has which could match Florida punch for punch. Also, why is Urban Meyer still talking about Tennessee? Shouldn't his focus be on the next game? Again, more red flags. Bottom line is Kentucky has better than a 1 and 8 chance of winning this game at HOME. Will it happen? Probably not, this is a small play here.
Virginia Tech +2.5
It ain't easy to go into Blacksburg and win. While everyone is caught up in the return of the "U" - I'm more caught up in how Va Tech didn't allow a single TD in their previous game against a very formidable opponent in another team I think is on the return - the Nebraska Cornhuskers. I should note I will wait on this line and for the gambling public to place all of their money on Miami. This game has tons of red flags guys. Don't bet the house on Miami. There's a reason Vegas keeps building casinos (well, maybe not with the recession and such). Make the smart play and take the points at home on what should be a fairly close matchup.
