    Nevada +3 (-120) Nevada is no slouch. At home as a underdog to a cal team that is not as good as previous years. I think people are giving cal too much credit for beating crappy teams. This is the first true test for both teams and I will take the home team with points any day in this situation. Go Pack!!

      Nicely done. I took Cal on a teaser. Wish I had seen this before hand. Maybe I wouldn't have been so stupid.
      No more of that talk, or I'll put the leeches on you.

            Fish, what's your record for '10? (Sorry if I missed it).

            Good call on Nevada and NC State UNDER. I cashed in on both as well

            Can't believe I haven't seen this thread yet. Always love watching someones picks over the course of the season.

              Kent st +21 I am high on this team. I have them as my sleeper to win the MAC with skill players back on offense and a veteran defense. I know it is penn st but they are going to struggle with a true freshman qb and a veteran defense on the other side. Probably the best defense in the MAC. They could of won the BC game if it wasn't for all the turnovers they committed. Just scared that penn st pounds them into submission and take the fire out of them.

              Arkansas st -4 Shitty sun belt team vs another shitty sun belt team. Arkansas put up a decent amount of points to auburn and have two games on the road. Home opener to a bad team that only has played one game. They should win this one by a least a touchdown you would think. This is also a tail play.

              Utah st +7.5 (-200) Laying a lot of chalk for this one boys! I am also high on this team this year. I wouldn't be surprised if they won out right here. Too veteran to be a under dog team at home. Could see it being a touchdown game win or lose so I bought it up. Maybe not one of the smartest moves but told myself if I won the weekday games I would use the winnings to buy the chalk with. They hung with oklahoma on the road and was no fluke. Oklahoma might have been looking ahead but to lose by a touchdown in the fashion they did. Oklahoma was lucky to win the game.

                    Fishy, you should just keep your record in here... might be easier for people to see than going to your spreadsheet.

                    Great call on Nevada last night!

                    Today I'm liking a lot of stuff... starting with Iowa State +4.5 and Va Tech -19.5. Also UConn -5!

                        Not playing it. Troy looked good against ok st but UAB looked has played some quality opponents. Would lean Troy but like I said don't really have a read on this game. Would of liked the 3 instead of 3.5

                          Yeah I was thinking VT too. But Just scared that ECU covers in the back door. Good luck to all your plays Capy.

                            VT -20.5 This is the first real defense that the pirates have faced all season. Pirates got lucky to a Tulsa team that was horrible on defense. Memphis is just god awful. Yeah VT lost to JMU but they were sleep walking through the game and didn't give JMU any respect. It's a bounce back play and should crush ECU.

                                Stanford -17 (-117) After watching the Duke vs alabama game I feel like wake forest is pure shit. They should of lost to Duke last week. Stanford got a better defense and offense. New QB on the road for the first time across the country?! Stanford should steam roll this team.

                                  Steamrolling commenced. It's 41-7 and it's not even half time yet. And my dumbass took Wake to cover 24 on a teaser. What's going on Jim Grobe? You were ACC Champs a few years ago! Oh yeah, I forgot, the ACC sucks in football.

                                    VT -3 (-125) Got this early before it moved anymore. BC is not that good offensively. VT has bounced back and looking to salvage the season. BC has not impressed me on either side of the ball. VT will show why they will win the acc or at least contend for it.

                                    FIU +10.5 Maryland is not a good football team. Should of loss to Navy and could not run the ball against WV at all. FIU has looked good in their two losses to two good teams. Teams that are far better than Maryland. Should of won at Texas A&M but fell apart on Texas A&M's last drive and could of won at Rutgers if they didn't turnover the ball 5 times! This team could be a shocking 2-0 if they could close out the games. I would not be shocked if this team pulls off the upset.

                                            Better dogs on the board than that. Consider FIU, New Mexico, NCSU, Utah State or Toledo. I think all of those are live dogs that have some value. If you like long shots New Mexico State might pull it out. The problem is determining which ones to play.

                                              FAU -10 should of got this earlier but I still think they can cover. North Texas is down to their 3rd string qb that is the coaches son. You know that he only got on the team because of his father and being third on the depth chart? He also was moved to wr because of a bad throwing arm that needs surgery and now he is starting at qb. Dunbar is the only offense that North Texas can count on but the FAU defense will be able to key on him. FAU has definitely impressed me this season with the win on the road to UAB and hanging tough with Michigan st. The passing game has not lost a beat with Smith gone and they are playing their first home game this season. I think they should roll in this one.

                                              New Mexico st +24(-120) No way Kansas should be a three plus touchdown favorite. New Mexico state does suck but lost to two high powered offenses. UTEP and San Diego st are top of there conferences in offense and kansas is not the offensive power they used to be. New Mexico st likes to run the ball and will look to keep it close and win it at the end. Keeping possessions down and the score with in striking distance. Just afraid of kansas bouncing back after the poor showing against Southern miss. It's going to be close or a blow out. I'm banking on close.

                                                  New Mexico +10.5 been doing pretty shitty today. Been eying this on all week. Told myself if I was up I would play it. So I am down and going to play it. Chasing a little bit but I still like the play. Two shitty teams playing one another. I will take the shit with points. People been saying UNLV is alot better than New Mexico but how can you say that? Both are 0-3. New Mexico has played tough opponents and so has UNLV. This should be an even match-up. At least that's what I think. Lets hope the lobos don't shit the bed.

                                                    Man what a bad weekend!!! Chase play lost and deserved it. I was just looking at my card and how in the hell did I take New Mexico and New Mexico st as plays??!! North Texas killed a couple people and asked myself if it was a pick would I of played it, and I would of definitely, so don't feel as bad. FIU was still the right side even though it lost. Turnovers and penalties killed that one. But shit 1-4?! On to next week.

                                                        Utep -14 (-120) After taking New Mexico and seeing how UNLV dismantled them. I feel this line should be at least 21. UTEP has a much better offense than UNLV. UNLV is garbage and killed this team. I can't see how any one can back New Mexico after what happened in the UNLV game. New Mexico is god awful. I though they could rally against another 0-3 team and they just shit the bed. Utep's defense is not as good as UNLV's but New Mexico looked like they couldn't score against a high school team. The play calling was also awful if you watched the game. Utep should steam roll this team.

                                                        Kent St +1 Got his early yesterday. I still lke it at -3. Jarvis might be back for this game and the offense will be twice as good if he is on the field. Turnovers killed them in the BC and Penn St games. They just had a bye to rest after their tough losses to BC and Penn st. I still like this team to creep up and surprise people. Miami's two wins have been to really bad football teams and the losses they have gotten blown out. If Miami OH were to play BC and Penn they would of gotten crushed. I think lines makers were asleep at the wheel when they made this line and trying to move it to where it needs to be by game time.

                                                        Oklahoma St -3 (-125) Bought it off the hook early, thinking the line would move up. Maybe I reacted to soon. I see it a -3 some places. That concerns me a little. I just don't think that Texas a&m on the road is that good, remember what happened to them on their first road game to k-state last year? And this is their first road game this year. If the game were at Texas a&m I would be all over them. But on the road to a Oklahoma St team that has a healthy Hunter and wanting to prove themselves a contender in the big 12?! It just feels like such a square play though. But I bet it and am going to roll with it.

                                                          Utah st +6 (-135) Forgot to post this earlier. Made the bet before I went to work. BYU is not what they used to be and I have been liking Utah st for the most part of the season. Utah st hung tough with Fresno til the end and lost to a good San Diego st team on the road. Was a little concerned that they haven't been playing that well the last 5 quarters of football but BYU hasn't either. But they have enough coming back to keep this on close. Utah st hung tough to a much better BYU team at BYU last year.

                                                            Oregon st -3 think ASU has a let down game against Oregon st. Oregon st has looked good and ASU is on the road. ASU blew their load against Oregon and will struggle on the road to this team.

Killing crappy teams and putting up alot of points against good opponents. Oregon will crush this team by half time. Trying to steam roll teams to get some respect for getting into the big game. Oklahoma st crushed this team earlier this and oregon is far better than OK st.

                                                                    Army -1.5 army has impressed me with the teams that they have played. Tulane upset a Rutgers team that probably did not prepare like they should of for them. I just can't see a tulane team beating this army team that almost upset a good temple team. Thought this line should of been at least 6 or higher.

Dasher is back for this game but I think the troy defense can contain him and he could be rusty. Playing 4 games gets you into the season. Troy has a better defense and looking good on offense with the new qb. Don't think MTSU can stop troy. It could be a shootout and come to the last possession. I will take the points if that turns out to be the case. Turnovers will make the difference in the game and Troy has protected the football well while MTSU has not. Dasher may turn it over just because of rust.
