    Notes for NCAA Tonight

    Georgia Southern +7 at App. St.

    Georgia Southern won 34-14 at Home vs Appalachian last season as 17 pt favs. Georgia Southern rushed 60 times for 408 yards, and only gave up 74 yds on 22 attempts in last years game.
    App. St. QB Tyler Lamb was picked off twice in last years' game and had no TD passes. App. St. have a lot of defensive players back and have continued to improve since mid season of last year.
    Last year was both schools first year in the FBS, Georgia Southern went undefeated in the Sun Belt and played some good non conference teams very close.
    Despite being an improved and experienced defense, I don't see App St. containing that monster rush attack, the points are an added bonus, in what should be a close game, that I think Georgia Southern can win SU.
    I'm also putting a small amount on the ML at +235

    California +4 at UCLA


    I don't have a play for this game yet, these are just some of my notes. I do lean CAL +4 and even more so on the Under 69 at this point.


    Both teams are coming off a loss, a very bad game for Goff and a bad team performance by UCLA. I think both teams could be a little more conservative tonight in this rivarly game and history seems to back that up. Goff might have some trouble throwing against a solid Pac 12 leading, UCLA pass defense, so I expect them to try to run the ball more. On the other side, UCLA has a workhorse RB in Perkins, but CAL has been decent rush defense. At this point I trust the CAL run game a little more than UCLA QB Rosen.
