Any recommendations?
I don't mind ones that pay 1.10 (You risk £100 to get £110 back)

Princeton at +700 is worth a shot, IMO.
West Virginia is a pick at most books (still +1 at 5Dimes), I like WVU as a pick.

What about Georgia @ Auburn --> Auburn MONEY LINE @ 1.10 so if you bet £100 on Auburn to win you get £110 back (£10 winnings, 10%) - looks solid to me, no?

Auburn is playing against Georgia Southern, not Georgia. Auburn is -850 on the money line (more or less, depending on where you play). This means, you risk $850 to win $100, adjust at this ratio depending on your bet size.
Auburn should win this game, but there's no value with this money line. You're risking too much, especially on an unimpressive Auburn squad.

Why unimpressive? I don't see any injuries reported except for one player who doesn't really matter for Auburn.

If it's soilid and it looks like it then it's not a risk.
I got it for 1.10 so £100 yields £110 which is 10% return.
Today I placed a bet of £10 O/U and lost ... risking £100 to win £10 is the same as risking £10 in O/U bets etc.
It's up to the game etc you're choosing, that's where the risk lies IMO.

adjust unit size accordingly. Princeton matches up well here, IMO, and if they can control the tempo of the game, should be within striking distance in the 2nd half.
low risk, high reward.

This is gambling, there's always a risk. Unless you're privy to inside information that even the books don't have....

Where did I say anything about injuries? Auburn has not beaten anybody worth a damn this season. Unless you consider wins over McNeese State, Kennesaw State,Nicholls State, Arkansas Pine Bluff, South Florida, North Florida, Florida A&M and Hawaii to be impressive.
Auburn has been punked by the only 3 legitimate teams they've played this season, losing to Seton Hall by 22, Long Beach State by 21 and UTEP by 7.
This is, for the most part, the same roster from Auburn's abysmal 2010 squad.
Why you think Auburn, of all teams, is a great bet against ANYBODY on a +850 money line right now, is beyond me.
But GL, whatever you decide to do. Auburn probably wins, but it's definitely not a sure thing as you claim it to be.
Play Missouri -375 against Old Dominion, if you need to play a heavy favorite.

I watched the Auburn Long Beach st game and Auburn just looked terrible....I realize LBSt is a quality team but after seeing that I would never bet Auburn.

Exactly. They looked just as bad barely squeaking past an awful Hawaii team. Nobody is going to be stunned if Georgia Southern wins this game, or at least, they shouldn't be. Two bad teams here...Auburn just happens to be higher profile bad.

You would be better buying points in the Princeton/Florida State to OVER 110 (-350)
