    Here Are Some GOY Lines I Am Considering

    I usually leave these alone because there are so many variables that could change by game time, but I like the game situations and the lines. Feel free to comment.

    Georgia Tech -7 at Kansas
    Texas A&M +2 at Oklahoma St.
    Kansas St. +3 vs. Nebraska
    Arkansas -6.5 vs. Texas A&M
    Notre Dame -3 vs. Navy
    Notre Dame -3.5 vs. Utah
    Nevada +11.5 vs. Boise St.
    Army +17 vs. Navy
    Washington +5 vs. Nebraska

    are you sure the nebraska vs Ksu line is right? It's KSU +12.5 at Sportsbook.com and if it is right where did you get that at?

    Here are some I am looking at:

    Penn st +11.5 vs Alabama
    FSU +12 vs Oklahoma
    LSU +12 vs Florida
    Nebraska vs KSU +12.5

    I will put every point I ever earn on Nebraska -3 against K state. That can't be right

    You're right, it is +13. I'm glad you caught that. I was looking at UCLA/K-State (a game I don't even want to play). I got these lines from 5DIMES.

    I like the K-State side because Nebraska has Texas the next week and they want that game a lot more than they want this one. I don't think they'll give K-State their best game.

    The only game posted here that I have played is A&M +2 at Okie State. Okie State returns 1 RB from their offense and their defense must replace 8 starters. This one is simple. I see the usualwagering on the Irish,which willleadto the usual losses by Irish fans. It happnes every year. I would pass on Notre Dame-Navy, and grad Utah +3.5 if I were playing that game. My picks are posted in my spreadsheet,where peoplewho claim to be playing games should be posting.

    Texas A&M's offense should be good enough to keep it close vs. Arkansas

    Really like the Washington pick. Think this team can win the Pac 10 this year.

    Not an Irish fan but that will look good this year. Believe me. My usual home team wins Michigan vs Notre Dame game.

    Yes. Temple is an up and coming team. Al Golden has managed to turn this program around. Last year, Temple went to a bowl game for the first time since the invention of the wheel, or so it seemed. Temple knows it must compete with Penn State in recruiting the Lehigh Valley. Temple plays the Army the following week. Temple is also getting 17.5 points.

    Meanwhile back in State College, JoePa's team will be preparing for their game against Iowa, at Iowa, the following week. The Iowa game is one of two critical games that Penn State must win if they want a shot at the Big 10 title. Temple will be an after thought. I expect Penn State to do just enough to win this game, but giving up 17.5 points is way too many. There is no way JoePa risks any injuries in this game with Iowa staring himin the face the following week. Temple has everything to play for, and Penn State has little to play for. 17.5 is a generous line.

    I would use caution in wagering tha game. The Dog is 12-2 ATS in their past 14 meetings, and right now, Michigan is getting anywheres between 5.5 and 7 points, depending on where you play.

    i guess you didnt watch the liberty bowl, if east carolina kept them close, even going to OT and only lost by 3, i'm sure A&M can get them done without OT

    East Carolina had a decent team last season (although that all changes this season). I also question how excited Arkansas was to be playing that game.

    However, let's not dismiss the fact that Arkansas did whatever they wanted to A&M last year and not enough has changed in those dynamics for me to jump on the A&M wagon in this game. Arkansas will be a lot more fired up to kick A&M's ass than they were against East Carolina.

    Sorry to point it out, but the Liberty Bowl game is just a bad comparison here.

    Even as a Penn State fan, I wouldn't touch that one with a ten foot pole. Huge questions marks at QB, question marks on the Oline and question marks on special teams. Big game on the road means JoePa goes into his shell and back to grinding out three yards and a cloud of dust and not taking any risks. This game could get ugly for PSU.

    The ATS state really does not scare me too much. If the Michigan take care of Uconn at home you will see the line. come back towards the playable side. The home team wins SU 8-2 exception 9/05-06. If i can get something under a key number i will shoot

    Lsu should cover against Florida. I think Lsu will be strong this season.

    You and nobody else. Maybe Z-Boiz. They will have success against teams that cannot run the ball. If Jordan Jefferson lines up at QB for the NC game they will lose. He cannot run from sideline to sideline vs that defense. LSU does have a good running game. There defensive front four is weak. LB and DB are talented. They cannot stop the run in the SEC thats the kiss of death

    Come on man, LSU? Really? 7-8 wins this year Miles is gone and they will try to get a big name coach and fail and they will be stuck with another mediocre coach that has a lot of talent but they get robbed from big wins by the coach making stupid decions.

    8 wins will keep Les in BR. But I don't see that with their qb problems.
