    Week One

    Thursday night

    3* Marshall/Ohio State under 48. Tressel doesn't run up the score against the flotsam and jetsam that annually populates three-fourths of Ohio State’s non-conference schedule, and with the Miami game just nine days after the season opener, he has no reason to do so Thursday. Across the field, Marshall will likely attempt to shorten the game when it has the ball, milking the play clock as any shrewd decisive underdog should. Here, the Buckeyes will have little reason to quicken the pace. Buckeyes, 32-7.

    3* Northern Illinois/Iowa State over 48'. While i don't normally play a lot of overs early in the season, this one looks like a potential barnburner. Both teams sport experienced running backs who averaged over five yards per carry last season and dual threat quarterbacks (though NIU hasn't officially announced the starter yet). While NIU’s defense is solid (well, at least against MAC competition, and MAC teams aren't so great out of conference), Iowa State’s defense is in shambles, starting all new LBs, returning only four starters from 2009 – and that was before star safety David Sims’ recent suspension for this game. While Iowa State’s offense is capable, esp against a MAC team like NIU, the defense will be a work in progress all season, and will be missing its best player Thursday night. Cyclones, 29-27.

    BOL to all.

    Saturday

    3* Washington +3

    This has moved to 2' or 2 at a number of places. still +3 at Greek for -115. Immense opener for UW and Sarkisian, and BYU is replacing a lot of skill position experience on offense. UW, 30-28.

    i'm leaning fresno state and the over, like the over better, i think. i liked UNC a lot but decided to no play it because of the suspensions. i can't see giving that many points with Lester against a competent team at a neutral site. Jefferson still just doesn't look that good, and UNC's back-up defenders could start for the Browns.

    what's up, dennis? loved kentucky today, they gave louisville too many chances to get back in, but louisville just doesn't have SEC talent. UK could do some damage as a dog this year. BOL to you.

    wifey complaining that this isn't the date night she envisioned. i told her i expected more out of Washington too. gonna puff down and head back for some quality time for a few, but think i'm gonna play that Cincy/Fresno over now that the line ticked back up. not posting it as official play, in the unlikely event that anyone gives a shnit.

    3* Marshall/Ohio State under 48 - LOSER
    3* Northern Illinois/Iowa State over 48' - LOSER
    3* Kentucky -3 - WINNER
    3* Washington +3 (-115) - LOSER
    3* TCU -13' - LOSER
    3* Oklahoma State -17 - WINNER
    3* UNLV +20 - PUSH

    2-4-1 -7.2u thusfar.

    adding

    3* SMU +13'
    3* SMU/Texas Tech under 59

    Tuberville and the spread were a horrendous combination at Auburn, and while i don't doubt that he does well at Tech, in the first game with players he didn't recruit and a system that hasn't suited him in the past, i'll take the 13' (wish i'd gotten 14). On the other side, SMU had been a solid road dog under Junes Jones and this is a decent spot for them. In Jones' first season, in September, the Ponies went to Lubbock and got spanked 43-7 (as +36' dog, so they actually covered by the hook), and they are still smarting from that whooping and it's been a rallying cry for them in their offseason training. As for the under, similar rationale, i don't expect Tech to be clicking offensively, but do expect a solid TT defense to keep SMU from turning this into a shoot-out, and both teams were bad (SMU) or poor (TT) in the penalty department last year.

    me too! yesterday looked promising, talked myself out of too many good plays, and Locker failed. oh well. hard to complain about a little bad luck or judgment on a 3-day weekend and football finally here.

    adding

    4* Virginia Tech +1'

    Kicking myself for not playing this at +3 earlier. Hoping that it won't matter as i see some rogue Hokie fan groundskeeper over-watering FedEx Field to help the dominant Hokie ground game win outright by a TD or so. BOL to all.

    nothing is certainly a decent option, or under. in Boise or on artificial turf, i think Boise would be really scary, but the combination of grass favoring VT's power game and Beamer and Bud Foster having this long to prepare makes me like the Hokies a lot.
