    Dbldown's plays for week of 10/17/09

    Here they are....hope to keep things going with another strong week, * plays are my very strong plays:

    Pittsburgh -3
    Wisconsin -1.5
    Georgia -7*
    Kentucky +14
    Temple -9*
    Utah St. +10
    Minnesota +16.5*
    South Carolina +17
    USC -10*
    Oklahoma St. -7*
    Idaho -11.5
    Florida -24
    Mississippi St. -4*
    and I'm guessing that Northern Illinois will end up being a play for me as long as the line comes in NIU -14 or less (which I'm assuming it will)*


    As always thoughts are welcomed

    I will be on some of these as well DD...

    Kentucky and South Carolina both look like very strong plays. Still working on this week's card but Pitt might make it as well. I think you will have a good week.

    I like all your plays except Minnesota and SCarolina, but the kentucky plus is a slightly better bet than going with Auburn to cover...

    Love most if not all of your picks DD. I'm with you on USC, Okla. St., Idaho, Georgia, Pitt & Kentucky on my 6 team parlay.

    You still feel that Kent -4 is a good play?

    I'd lean towards them dreezy but I don't feel comfortable enough. I'm trying to shy away from games involving teo bad small conference teams cause you never know what they might do

    I don't know what to think about that. I don't think there are any significant injuries.

    I wanted to play N. Illi BIG.

    Northern Illinois should be favored in this game...an extra week off...both recently played WMU...and with such different results...
    Any guesses?

    I was thinking more like -12.5, which I like much better than laying 2 TD's on the road.

    I truly think on some of the games, scared books let the lines get hammered on Pinnacle. Then they put out a line that has settled, and is less likely to see large movement. I think the whole world would bet Northern Illinois, since I can't see a reason to go the other way. Even squares will be on N. Illi

    Maybe the books will give us a free one and make it a PICK.

    Probably not though...

    Really like your Minn play. I think they will definitely hang with PSU. Good luck this week

    I'm waiting for that line just like you are DD. It took me a while to burn it in my head, but TOLEDO is SH!T.

    Going big on the Minnesota/Penn St. game. I don't think Minnesota will win, but they should be able to hang with them.

    Adding Memphis +13.5: Southern Miss. for some reason continues to be overvalued week in and week out......

    I thought it was funny. People who are betting MIZZ are defending themselves using the "No Dez Bryant" card. His hearing with the NCAA is today and who knows, he might have a favorable outcome.

    OSU -7 all the way.

    adding South Florida +3.5: Both teams are undefeated......both teams are ranked. Neither team has played a real solid opponent. Cincy is VERY overrated here at 8 in the nation whereas S. Florida is where they should be around 21. S. Florida should not be getting more than a field goal in this game against an unproved Bearcats squad.

    based off of???????????

    They havnt beaten a good team yet...

    Rutgers? (horrible team)
    SEMO? (shnope)
    Oregon St. on the road? (I'll give them some credit for that)
    Fresno St. (not really)
    Miami Oh.(haha)

    now onto S. Florida:

    Wofford: (no)
    Western KY: (nope)
    Charlseton Southern: (shnope)
    Florida St. on the road: (as impressive as beating oregon st. on the road)
    Syracuse: (nope)

    So from what theyve done so far these teams are pretty even. S. florida is the pick because they are at home, yet are getting more than a field goal.
