    Yeah, me, pags, and lout are all on that game... I want to say there is some kind of trap but honestly it makes zero sense. Even offensively-challenged UCF scored 31 on SMU...

    Most I'd take on it? What do you mean?

    Yeah, I'm very annoyed... I got home from work 4a - 10a and needed to sleep because I am fighting off a cold... When I woke up to do the vid I saw that Tex Tech, Arkansas, and NIU all moved a half point against me. Very annoying... but I have to use current spreads when I make my vids or people will think I'm just using fake spreads. Hopefully these don't hurt me...

    I'm agreeing with most of your views, except the Tulsa play- no opinion there. Your play I like most is the Texas Tech one. Have a positive weekend and GJ!

    Loving the Northern Illinois play...was already all over that one myself. I really like the under in the Texas/OU game too. I don't see those two teams scoring more than 51 combined so under 57 looks really nice.

    Arkansas is looking better and better the more I look at the numbers. I still think that new Auburn offense that they put in this year is a mess. They have a lot of trouble just getting it back to the QB if they aren't in the shotgun. I don't see Auburn putting up more than 26 points themselves and I am sure they will give up at least a couple cheap ones.

    Keep up the good work and good luck this week!

    SMU Points Against This Year: 31, 34, 48, 43, 36 (Div 2), 55

    Tulsa Points For This Year: 63, 62, 56, 56, 45

    Very confusing to me they are only -25 in this spot.

    Tough to say. I was thinking right around 28 actually, Maybe 49 - 21...

    I think I'd take it up to -23.5... above 24 I still think would have a solid chance of hitting but it wouldn't be best play of the week material.

    Really comes down to how they respond on the road... can't cap what you haven't seen.

    To be quite honest I could see it get really, really ugly.

    Good luck if you decide to play it

    Which ones?

    This is the first week this season I could make a strong argument for both sides of almost every game... very tough to find top plays.

    Thanks as always for the kind words my friend!

    I really hope that last week was a sign of things to come and not a flash in the pan. Obviously I don't expect anywhere close to 80%, but if I can keep stringing together 5 - 3 type weeks I'd be very happy

    GL this week. This is my first year betting football, (previously only baseball), so I've basically been trying to read a lot of posts on this site and some others to get a feel for it. I really like the way you give your rational for your picks, as it let's me know some things good cappers consider. Keep up the good work.

    USC great video as usual,

    I think your biggest lock of the week is this week being a crazy week.
    The books might make a killing this week, just a hunch but hope that
    hunch doesnt affect any of your plays sir gl and kill them this week!

    I'm really proud of myself, win or lose, for not letting it affect me actually. It is human nature I think when coming off of a big losing week to try too hard/be too conservative OR get too cocky/take chances/feel invincible coming off of a monster week.

    I don't feel I did that. I approached this week the same as I do every week, and went the extra mile to double, triple, and quadruple check my plays. Whether this results in a winning record is up to the 16 teams involved this Saturday; but on a personal level, I'm happy with the way I capped 'em.

    Killing them this week sounds good to me

    I would load up on Arkansas this week. It looks like the Auburn staff is in disarray. They Fired Tony Franklin (Offensive Coordinator) yesterday and everything I have read it wasn't a very nice exit. New coach calling the plays probably isn't going to help them score any more points.....
