15-10 last week,
but only 4-9-1 the week before

for saturday:

yellowjackets -6.5 __undervalued here! much higher rated than duke! revenge match too!

eagles -7 __homies undervalued here too! at 5-3 they arent good certainly but not doormats either. last year they were doormats and lost by 15 to the redhawks. so this is a revenge match because the eagles r most certainly improved and definitely rate much higher than the doormat redhawks. redhawks coming off a couple wins, but against bottom dwellers, with dead even game stats vs each opp, but needing the benefit of turnovers to win each. meanwhile eagles coming off a loss to w. michigan - playing them very tough - putting up 471 yds offense - despite -1 net turnovers - on the road - at a ranked team! this revenge scenario just screams rebound at home w/ a beat-down on a weaker opponent

adding:
notredame PK* __woulda grabbed +2 but waiting on injury updates; it appears hurricanes defense is hurtin esp. on the D-line! this should give kizer extra time to find receivers and an easier go running the ball (finally) although who knows - the canes backups could step up bigtime. or not! still, playing at home in what i consider a MUST WIN scenario or kiss a bowl game goodbye, the chance of favorable results in the trenches is likely to the irish here. and that makes all the diff. irish have lost 5 thus far, yes, but look at the schedule/results -- all 5 by just a single possession, and bad luck playing a role against them. i have the 'canes rated higher but take away their 2 easy wins over cupcakes and they r just 2-3. and this is a road game, w/ D-line issues, against a desperate opp. i see the "luck of the irish" as overdue for a breakthru win against a decent opp and i would b saying the same for at least a cover as a dog even if canes werent hurtin defensively

deacons -6.5* __actually i expected a line of -9.5, so when i saw -7 i circled it and waited. good value here imo on a home team (5-2) playing a significantly weaker opponent (4-3). wake has lost their only 2 games to very good opps - both on the road - and playing FSU tough last game! but they have won 3 against opps about equal to themselves and all r rated higher than army! meanwhile in their most recent 4 games army lost at weakling buffalo, lost at duke by 7 (remember wake thumped duke by 10 on the road!), then army beatup on a cupcake as expected, but wet-the-bed w/ an embarassing 17 pt loss AT HOME to another weakling last week! deacons have also had an extra week to rest, heal, and prepare for army. no significant injuries. barring bad luck im expecting a rout.

unbelievable
once highly touted houston now getting blown again - 21-3 at home at halftime by mediocre UCF
this after being blown last week by 22 pts at lowly smu (2-4 then)!!

luckily they have tulane on the sched cuz if they lose today they will not upset louisville at home or memphis on the road. they will need a home win vs tulane just to finish 7-5 and qualify for a low-level bowl

embarrassment

oy
yellowjackets sprint out to a 28-7 lead at halftime
then
weaker opponent duke outscores them 28-3 in 3rdQ and part of 4th (w/ just 8 mins left)
