I love NW. They are solid, look at the way they kept coming back to score to get the cover against KU after KU kept getting fluke score after fluke score on defense and special teams. The KU offense did almost no damage. Very misleading score. NW should be ready to stop AF this time as they have the personnel and the practice to do it. NW QB is superb.

i think kansas is a really bad team with a really bad staff. baylor and kansas would be a good match up. northwestern won a very sloppy and undisipline game. i see air force as a well coached and disipline team. they have some really nice players that play hard week in and out. remember last year about this time air force was favored over notre dam.
gl this week peter.

Well, Northwestern has a game under their belt and Air Force doesn't. So, a little discipline would call for a Northwestern wager or a pass....IMO.

yes. they have a game under their belt. built some confidence as well on this cream puff. didn't allow any big plays and controled the ball game. nwestern is a bad team. air force will control the ball and the clock. air force will be there in my opinion.

I agree, it's one of my favorite games on the board this week. I love to watch Harridge run that option. AF is returning a very good team from last year. I can't see them losing this game, if they win they cover.

i agree. air force is a good ball club. they have some nice experienced players with a lot of leadership. disipline in the game plan. feed on others mistakes. don't see them beating a top 10 team, but i do see them pounding northwestern.

Goblin:

Air Force is usually a good dog, but can you trust them laying over a touchdown on the road?
I agree that NW is nothing special. I am not so sure that Air Force meets the credentials of a solid road favorite.

proman, yes. they can win on the road. like i said earlier, af was favored over notre dame at this time last year. because of determination. they will feed off the turn overs and penalties given to them. disipline. nrthwestern stinks. their stadium isn't as nice as some oklahoma high schools. no money. this would be a nice win for air force. in my opinion they will kick the sht out of northwestern. gl this weekend.

I also like the Beavs for a med. play. Talent wise big edge, Fresno is just so damn tuff @ home & don`t like the change of surface. But as I said will give it a shot. Another gm I got early was UConn @ 14 bought the hook. Also Va/SC U! Have fun in the land of grits, love those southern Honeys! LOL

Goblin, Erickson doesn't coach Oregon State anymore. Beavers humiliated Bulldogs last year and Fresno has this one circled. I think they get the cover, if not the outright win. Just my 2 cents

BOOMER SOONER. stoops shows up to the big ones. kind of his show. i think the sooners will smash bama. seen a lot of their game plan the other day. they had to put it all on the line to beat sFlorida. still talented group at bama, but stoops has had his troops too long. shula didn't even have any spring practices. stoops system is proven. shula is green. at 7.5 its a steal. gl to all this weekend.

if the ou game touches 7 the big guns will come out and take that action. i will spend some more at that number. then it will rise back to 8,8.5 by kick. good posibility. sharps like consistency. and stoops provides that, shula don't. at 7 its still a deal. colorado plays a team with a new head coach. only catch is he was on the cu staff last year. don't see that as a problem. elder vs green horn. in proud la i'm sure the former assistant has a much more social life as a head coach. as in stoops vs. shula. good angle early in the year. after 3 games its back to crunching stats. no one can win for ever, but hell i'm trying. lol.
