GoSooners, you have this game to a T. Love it! If you can't play Toledo, you can't play. Appreciate what you do for ALL of us. Keep on Krackin those Nutts. :toast: LT
Coach...The game looked so obvious to me it stuck out like a sore thumb. I doubt the general public takes these things into consideration because it's actually gone up a half a point from it's original number...But if this thing goes over that hard 7 number tomorrow I'm going to hammer Toledo again...Best of luck my friend. Let's get this done:103631605

GoSooners, I hope you don't mind but I just posted Toledo as a Rubberband Game. As you know, I LOVE angle's such as going against Disheartened and Disappointed teams. Love that you share with us RXers. Keep Krackin. :toast::103631605LT

You do realize that Tennessee has 92 total rushing yds against UF in the last THREE years.

66 in 2005, -11 in 2006, and 37 in 2007.
The main stat that jumps out at me here is not Tennessee's offense, but Floirida's offense. They don't appear to be clicking like they have in the past. Their only averaging about 375 yards per game to the Vols 460. And perhaps the most important stat is Florida is averaging 172 yards per game rushing to 222 for the Vols. They both are giving up about 60 yards per game rushing. And this comes with about the same strength of schedule. This tells me that Tennessee is the probable running dogs in this game. So the thing I would be concerned with if I was a Gator fan is if they can get their run game going enough to cover over one score in a hostile enviornment. This is a pretty hefty number. Anything over one score on the SEC road is a lot of points. And Urban Meyer's Florida teams have been terrible ATS road favorites.

I'm on the other side..New Mexico is definitely the running dogs in this spot. They've also had the much tougher schedule than Tulsa. It's a scary game if your on NM because of Tulsa's ability to score fast and often. And if NM should find themselves a couple scores behind, it could be hard to come back. But Tulsa does not have a good defense. And it's never a good idea to lay double digits with teams like this. NM HC Rocky Long is a defensive specialist. And he knows how to slow teams like Tulsa down, and keep his team in the game and control the tempo with the running game. It was no fluke that NM covered the 10 points last week against Arizona. NM had 221 yards rushing to Arizona's 67...That'll get it done for you every time..And Tulsa doesn't have any better a defense than Arizona..This one is very close to being a play for me. If I can get the line to go over 10 I'll probably be on New Mexico...Good luck

GoSooners,

I've wanted to play Fresno in the worst way because of how well they held up vs. Wisky and their overall experience... but, you've made some good points that can't be ignored (as usual.)

I've also given it more thought. Historically, they are an emotional team that hasn't exactly been the rebounding sort. I can't remember a single good game they've played after a big loss for years. I guess you're right... as coach put it, it's Toledo or nothing. Fresno still gets to have its national exposure (however no more BCS) but I think they now they have less to play for and Pat Hill doesn't take losing too well. That's been their pattern for the past few years. Toledo is catching them at a good time.

True and there's no real reason for it. The have an OT playing LG in place of Jim Tartt (4yr starter) who returns this week. Gilbert stuggled vs the blitz schemes Miami employed. Also, Harvin has been out and for some reason they cant get clicking without him FT in the offense. I think Mullen and Meyer are too set on "spreading the ball around" and that's actually hurting productivity. I don't expect that this week as I believe Harvin will get the ball A LOT.

I think the O number is a little skewed. Look at who UT has played. UCLA and UAB are horrible. Miami's defense is head and shoulders better than both of those teams. Granted UF didn't play well against Miami, they would have scored 70 against UAB and a good 40+ against UCLA - esp with all of the 1st half turnovers.\

Also UF is 4-1 in their last 5 road games ATS.

I've talked to several cappers about this game, and not a one of them is touching it. I think the unknowns are too many with both of these teams. Will QB McGee be able to go after dislocating his shoulder? I've dislocated my shoulder twice, and it took a hell of a lot longer than a week for me to get over it. And this was to McGee's throwing arm. So I have my doubts that he'll be able to play..Now the next question, is this a blessing in disguise? This new Aggie offense has required McGee to all of a sudden become a passer. Granted he passed alot in highschool. But he has never been a great passer in college. Now this new QB Jerrod Johnson is a much better equipped QB (6-5 229) and he has a big arm. But he has very little expereince. So I have no idea what's going to happen if HC Sherman throws him to the wolves against this Miami defense. He could be a star in the making, or he could lay an egg. Who knows. As for Miami, I just don't know if they have enough offense to have any business being favored over anybody..Gun to my head I would say they probably win this game. But i think it's probably going to be close. Just like the line is..

Also UF is 4-1 in their last 5 road games ATS.
Florida is 4-8 ATS in their last 12 on the road..When they are made the favorites on the road they are only 2-8 ATS under Urban Meyer. And that's not counting the neutral site loss to georgia last year. I think Florida wins this game but doesn't cover..They'll be facing one of the best secondaries in the country, so the Gators will probably have to get it done on the ground. That alone tells me it could be a close game. Plus I think Tennessee will be playing with quite a bit of emotion here after what they feel was Florida piling the points on the Vols in ther 4th quarter of their game last season.

Louisville (+4) over KSU *** (Win)
Louisville-KSU (UNDER 56) ** (Loss)
UCONN (-12) over Baylor *** (Loss)
Wake Forest (+4) over FSU **
Colorado-West Virginia (OVER 56) ** (Loss)
Missouri-Buffalo (OVER 71) **
Marshall (+8) over Southern Miss **** (Best Bet)
San Jose St. (+8.5) over Stanford **
Florida Atlantic (+7 hook) over Minnesota ***
Ole Miss (-6.5) over Vandy ***
Iowa State (ML +115) over UNLV **
Tennessee (+8) over Florida ***
Arizona (-2.5) over UCLA **
Michigan St. (-8.5) over Notre Dame **
Toledo (+7) over Fresno St. **** (Best Bet)



Fellows I'm hitting the Ole Miss and Toledo games again and upping my plays to a 3 star for Ole Miss and a 4 star Best Bet play for Toledo. From all of the indications I'm getting from the SEC cappers I know, Ole Miss is going to make a statement tomorrow in their first SEC game.. This team is pretty damn good, and they have a fair share of NFL prospects on this team. And are still flying under the radar screen with the linesmakers. I think they roll tomorrow. Any number at 7 or under is good for this game..Toledo I just have a strong feeling about..This angle is too strong for me not to play this one hard and fast..And whenever CoachLT and I are on the same page I'm not sure we've ever lost a bet...Good luck.

I like Pitt....But I would have to hold my nose to make a bet on a Wannstadt coached team...Luckily he's going up against a coach today who may equally as bad. Good luck

not sure why you are you so down on Ferentz. he took an avg Big10 team to FOUR STRAIGHT JAN BOWLS in this decade. how many other coaches can say that? prob count on one hand.

anyway, love your writeups GoSooners. hope you have a big day $$

(pitt is right side hope i'm wrong)
