        On the surface they all seem like great bets being big favorites. MIght have to look further into it to see any reasons to question.
        I don't think you can go wrong with Alabama and FSU with their tough defenses. FSU will shut down ULM and will create points with turnovers, special teams, and short field position. Went to Samford game last year and this is what exactly happened for them to blow it open. While ULM is no Samford I still think FSU shuts down their offense. That is my favorite pick. With the other 3 matchups can't really give you any informed opinions.

                      What made you drop the Houston game. I was thinking that -3.5 looked like a steal.

                                    Your record is 2-1-1.

                                    Adam, you asked this in my thread, I will explain it here for you.

                                    Your Michigan game is not a win. Anyone who bet it---had the game cancelled because it was called in the 3rd quarter.

                                    In order for a game to have an official record for a sportsbook----it has to go the 55 minutes. This is a Sportsbook rule observed in Vegas, and every sportsbook in the world.

                                    There were 20 threads about this yesterday.

                                    Here is one of them..

                                        Then you should be really happy because you have a retarded bookmaker.

                                        This isn't some obscure rule----this is industry wide. It would be like paying off a MLB game after a game that was called in the 3rd inning.

                                        If you are creating a thread here to track your record----it would help though if you used rules every single SBR poster observes.....we tend to follow Vegas rules, as no one but you has the luxury of a retarded bookie.

                                        It isn't a loss----but it certainly isn't a win either. It's a push, no-bet.

                                            Convenient, and I hope you buy your bookie a set of mittens with his money. Any bookie that stupid may be in danger of gnawing off his own fingers.

                                                    I only see one pick I was thinking the other side(Notre Dame) but I don't disagree with any others. I was going to take Iowa and Auburn but I want to see them play a few more before I put money on them. BOL
