Back with another week's worth of selections friends, did real good last week, check the results yourselves..

1)N C State Money Line. We like this Thursday night selection on the money line if for no other reason, they are undefeated at home, for another reason, i HATE Clemson, not sure why this program gets any pub, they haven't won anything significant in over 20 years..

2)Colorado St Money Line. CSU appears to have found their roll and swagger. Van Pelt, as suspected last week, has done pretty much whatever he needs to do to win, and the home field should make for a good advantage tonight, take the ML and avoid any backdoor surprises.

3)Wisconsin + 1 1/2. Indications are that Sorgi will be fine to play in this one. Wisconsin is tough as nails at home too, Ohio st found out the hard way. We like the home team getting points in a game that should go to them outright, ride the Badgers to victory.

4)Marshall - 29. Buffalo continues to battle others as the worst team in D-1, no idea who they have on their team, don't much care, all we know if they are likely to be beaten by a min of 40 points. Marshall is the only choice here.

5)Southern Cal - 7 1/2. This line can vary depending on where you look, for the utmost safety try to buy it down to 6 1/2. Not sure why Notre Dame is all of a sudden a good team again, they win one game and people forget they were horrible in nearly every other. USC is powerful and should have NO problems here. Trojan Horse!!

6)Michigan St + 6. Not sure what all the love with Minnesota is about, they still haven't beaten a good team, and won't likely start this week, 6 points is a gift as MSU has really regained the form they showed before 2002. Take the points, but chances are good you won't need em!

7)Washington St -10. The Cougars may be the bets team in the Pac-10, the match up with USC will go a long way to decide that case. Anyway, we see then doing to Stanford much what USC did, a 40-14 type score should be expected here, Kegal is fine and WSU's Derting being out should hardly be a factor.

8)Utah -2. This team is still flying under the radar, they have consistently continued to win games this year and Alex Smith seems to have a lot to do with it, very few mistakes and a powerful running game has helped. Take Utah here as they will stay in the MWC race lead.

9)Houston -5. Another team which at 5-1 is flying way under the radar. Memphis is getting a lot of respect by coming in as only a 5 point dog, Look for the home team to win by 10 to 14 points here as they continue their roll!

10)Oklahoma st UNDER 74. 74!?! I have seen big totals posted before but this must be the highest. I know people have fallen in love with Symons and his bombs away approach, but he is a bit dinged, Texas Tech is on the road AND Oklahoma st actually can play good D. No way this approaches 74 points! The under is a gift...take it

excellent card.....and well written....i may take issue on the nc st play.....i actually bought it up to 7 from 5.5.....absolutely defenseless nc st vs an excellent clemson passing game.....clemson has some very,very good receivers....and revenge from national t.v. embarrassment last year....and yusef kelly is a servicable back...

on the other hand,mclendon`s probaby back....how effective,nobody knows....home field....if it doesn`t get to 57,that means nc st is blowing out clemson....this almost has to be very high scoring....looking at under 52 in a.f./csu....

everything else on this card is hard to disagree with....

nice work...

Thanx guy,

I have to say i just can't see NC State losing outright at home. If this game was AT Clemson it would be a no play for me. In Raleigh, i will take the chalk..it all comes down to that for me.
