There are a lot of games I have my eye on this week, haven't posted CF plays since week one, when I got slaughtered. I lost confidence and took a break, but I'll be posting plays from now until the Bowl games. I'm looking foward to hearing any advise or alternate positions. Thank's gentlemen!
NCAAF Plays: Saturday - 11/21/09
KENTUCKY +9 - Is my "Play of the Day", way too many points here for a good Kentucky team and a lousy Georgia team to cover. Georgia is banged up on both sides of the ball, as AJ Green and Rambo are out! Georgia is not a very good football team, and without AJ Green (their best player) they're even worse. Kentucky is winning games on defense and on the ground, and if you've watched Georgia at all this year, you'd know that Georgia can't stop the run. Kentucky is a good road team as well. Freshman quarterback Morgan Newton is a capable backup for Hartline, he's more mobile and their passing numbers are essentially identical this year, it's not like Hartline was having a good season anyway. They beat Vandy and Auburn on the road without Hartline, and they're 4-1 overall without him in their last 5 games! He hasn't played since the South Carolina game, and the Wildcats haven't missed a beat since.
INDIANA +3½ - Indiana continues to get no respect, this is a talented football team that contends with just about everyone they play. Purdue put everything they had into that MSU game last week and still came up short. Getting +3½ at home is a gift (imo). Indiana wins this one straight up!
NO ILLINOIS PK - This line is off, Northern Illinois is a very good football team. Ohio is very inconsistent from week to week. Ohio really struggled to get wins over Ball Sate and Buffalo, not to mention that they got dropped by Kent St. NO Illinois has played good competition - their losses are against Wisconsin 28-20, Idaho 34-31, and Toledo 20-19. The Huskies have won their last 4 games. There's a reason this line is a pick em at Ohio, because NO Illinois is a better football team.
NORTHWESTERN +7 - Way too many points at home. Northwestern plays the run very well and can throw it accurately all day long. They run a fast pace offense, and I think they'll wear out Wisconsin a bit in the 2nd half and keep it close.
CONNECTICUT +6 - Where in the hell did they get this line? Why does ND warrant a six point spread vs. a tough UConn team that is much better than their record would suggest. Line is off.
AIR FORCE +10 - Air Force has an excellent defense, this is a big Rivalry game, and ten points is a lot. BYU looked sluggish their last time out and nearly lost to New Mexico. Air Force has yet to lose by more than 7 points this year. The Falcons will keep this one close!
TEXAS TECH +6½ - This line is screaming please pick Oklahoma, please!!! Tech will get up for this one vs. a team that is plagued with injuries. Beating a banged up Oklahoma team for Texas Tech, is still beating Oklahoma. I'll take the points.
ARIZONA U +6 - Oregon is a good football team but they're not that much better than Arizona, they're certainly not a better coached team. Arizona should have won last week at Cal, they may be a bit drained, but I think they'll get up for the Ducks. I'll take the home team and the points here.
