61-59-3 YTD.
14-9 LW.
Took a loss with Air Force on Thurs.
Today's Early Plays (will post afternoon and late games later on):
Purdue (-1)
Wisconsin comes off a huge win over OSU and is a good home dog, but Purdue has a better offense and defense IMO.
They are 16-8-1 ATS on turf and have some good speed on offense and defense.
Davis is back for the Badgers, but I think UW will have trouble running on the Boiler D (only allowing 61 yards per game).
Temple (+32)
Canes come off a massive win in Tallahassee. This looks like a letdown spot.
Miami is only 3-6 ATS their L9 as a Home Fav of 20 or more. Temple is 7-1 ATS as a DD Away Dog.
Miami is looking ahead to their bye week and then a road tilt at Virginia Tech after that. I have had success riding Temple this year and are 4-1 ATS.
Duke (+10)
The dog is 6-1 ATS the L7 in this series.
Duke has been disappointing this year, but they a much more experienced team than Wake.
Wake is in a sandwich between Georgia Tech and Florida State.
The Deacons are still overvalued from their early success.
Michigan State (+6)
The Spartans are 6-2-1 ATS as an AD their L9.
The Gophers are 3-8 ATS their L11 Big 10 HG's. Even though their home loss/choke job brought them back to earth LW, I still think they have farther to go.
The Gophers have huge problems in their secondary and Smoker is averaging 260 yards a game with 66% completions.
MSU will be able to at least somewhat control the run. They are only allowing 78 yards per game on the ground.
Alabama (+4)
The Tide is 10-1 ATS as a Road Dog off a loss.
Ole Miss is 1-10 ATS as an SEC Home Fav off a SU and ATS win.
Bama has a much better defense and turnovers usually cost Ole Miss in big games (i.e. Texas Tech this year).
The Rebels are only 11-21 ATS as a HF.
This game is where I think Alabama's schedule will come into play. Ole Miss seems to have played the entire Sun Belt while Bama has played Oklahoma, Arkansas and Georgia.
Texas (-16')
This is a romp here. The Horns are still a good team, they just can't beat Oklahoma.
ISU is only 4-9 ATS as a Home Dog under Dan McCarney.
Texas is 10-2 ATS off a SU loss Under Mack Brown.
Clearly, Texas is more explosive offensive with Vincent Young at QB. I think they show that today.
Army (+6)
We saw this situation with Arizona earlier this year where they have now covered their first 2 games with an interim Head Coach.
Army did cover at Louisville LW and both teams are 0-6. I'll take the home team getting points.
Pittsburgh (-16)
The Panthers have heard all week that they are the season's most disappointing team. They will take out their frustrations here.
The home team is 0-5 ATS in this series.
Michigan State torched Rutgers and Pitt's passing attack will do the same.
Arizona State (-6)
The Heels are 1-8-1 ATS in their L10 Homecoming games and are 1-8 ATS as a Home Dog under Bunting.
Walter is starting to righten the ship on the ASU offense.
UNC has a terrible defense and ASU is a better one (at least middle of the pack).
Mississippi State (+21')
Auburn is off 2 huge wins over Tennessee and at Arkansas and has LSU next week.
Miss State will play hard today for Sherrill.
MSU is 27-14 ATS as a Road Dog under Sherrill.
MSU has played better the L2 weeks by winning and covering their L2.
Notre Dame (+8')
Willingham is 6-0 ATS as a Home Dog with 5 upsets in his career. The Defenses are even and ND has found a running game.
USC is allowing 270 ypg against the pass and Brady Quinn threw for just about that against a very strong Purdue D.
Turnovers are key here and Leinart is still banged up and has John David Booty looking over his shoulder.
