    fellas I am betting the farm

    I am going all out on notre dame point spread and su. I am very confident about this game, although I expect it to be close.

    I hope you don't need that farm.

    Good luck forex, because you and Notre Dame are going to need it.

    If there was any proof that Notre Dame could actually throw the ball, I might say you have a chance. BC's achilles heel has been pass D, but the Irish haven't shown shit in the passing game or offensively period. Matt Ryan should continue to solidify his Heisman status me thinks.

    Recipe for disaster.

    People need to ignore the ND name and recognize this team is beyond horrible. ND is going to need to put a few in the end zone to stay within the number, and I don't think they're capable.

    I love the irish, I even bet there ml last week, BUT BC is not UCLA. They have a QB who will tear up irish pass d something UCLA was not able to do. Also like these guys said ND won with turnovers and never got the offense moving. B/C is very good at ND and being a rival game and BSC standings coming out sunday, they willl not be afriad to run up the score.

    Why bet the farm on a game you think will be close? I bet the automobiles on those games, I save the farm for blowouts.

    I think it will be close thats why I'm betting 75 spread and 25 su. by farm I don't actually mean farm, but something substantial because I am confident I will cover the spread with NDs improving defense. But definitely need turnovers to win SU.

    Well I hope you win Forex, as my name suggests I am Irish and find myself pulling for the Golden Domers though I didn't go to school there. I just can't make myself bet them right now.

    Notre Dame is 118 out of 119 in 3rd Down Conversion Offensively
    Boston College is 19 out of 119

    ND is also 95 out of 119 in 3rd Down Stops Defensively
    BC is also 21 out of 119

    ND is 30 out of 119 in TM (.67)
    BC is 9 out of 119 in Turnover Margin (+1.67 pg)

    ND is 91 out of 119 in Penalities per game
    BC is 33 out of 119

    ND is 118th in Total Offense, 73 on T. Defense
    BC is 24 on Offense, 21 on Defense

    ND is 82 in Sagarin Predicted Rating
    BC is 24

    That combined with the fact that I think BC will destroy ND by what ive seen on film..

    Give me Boston College -14 to cover easily

    I noticed he seems a bit off these days as well, did you see him wolfing that sandwich down during the Navy game? Looked like they were trying to remind him he was on camera and needed to help call the game

    GL forex. Since I'm not betting on this one, hope you $$$ it. I thought before the beginning of the day that a Top 10 would lose again. My pick was S.FLA, but they demolised UCF. Leaves BC and S.CAROLINA as the other two options if there is to be an upset.
