My week 3 plays are:

Penn St -26' -110 (BEST BET) WINNER

3* First game outside Happy Valley for the Nittany Lions should be a good one, and since I can't find anything good to say about the Orange, I won't say anything at all. Penn St. in a ROMP. PSU 42 SYR 9

Navy +2' -110 LOSS

1* Run, Run, and run some more should be the gameplan for the Midshipmen (#1 in I-A rushing) and that'll hang another home loss for the Blue Devils. NAVY 35 DUKE 24

San Diego St +6 -110 LOSS

1* At the end of the day I can't see either team going anywhere, but this line to me was 3 points too steep. I am not sold that Notre Dame is anything great, but San Diego St. played as good as you can in a hostile environment. I haven't seen San Jose St play, but their numbers aren't all that glamorous. SD ST 28 SJ ST 27

Oregon -7' -110 LOSS

1* Let's see here....Oregon is 32nd in the nation in passing, 4th in rushing, 5th in scoring, 1st in total yards.....why would Purdue even be considered here? I respect Joe Tiller, and he'll have his team fired up, but numbers do not lie, and that's why I'm on the Ducks. OREGON 34 PURDUE 21

[Mr Handicapable]

2 strong plays so far...more to come! Missed a few lines like Oregon -7 so I'm passing on those! Here we go!

Ball State/Akron Over 58

I was leaning toward BS -7 but the more I look at the game the more high scoring it looks! BSU is loaded on offense w/QB Davis and WR Love that are good enough to play on Sundays! Akron only returns 5 starters on D but they put up 42 last week and Ball State's strength isn't their defense!

Ball State 38 Akron 30

5 Star Special ****

Baylor over Wash St! Washington State has given up 565 yds and 10 TDs rushing in just 2 games! This young struggling squad goes on a long road trip to Texas to meet up w/a young Baylor squad coached by Art Briles! If you're not familiar w/Coach Briles....he's a high school legend that come up thru Stephenville HS (west of Ft. Worth). They won 38 straight in the 90s running a run-n-shoot attack mixed w/the option and multiple formations! He's a great coach and recruiter that already built a nice system at Houston! I see Art Briles with a top 10 job in the next 7-10 years imo...he's that good and kids love the system! I'll take the better coach at home w/the best athlete on the field in Bear QB Robert Griffin. This is too tall a task for the struggling Pac 10 team thats trying to break in the spread themselves! This one crushes the (-1.5) line so I'm including it in a pleaser parlay!

Baylor 33 Washington State 17
