SATURDAY NCAA PLAY!

Most of the day posted w/ possible late additions.

NCSU -7.5 (WAKE)... The pack is very average on the road vs. tough conference foe, but the Offense should be too much for wake today.

ND -6.5 (WasSt)...Board is very split on this game, but ND is very tough in openers (see MD last year) and they are playing at home. The D is still excellent and the O is still average, but they should win by a touch or better at home.

UVA -3 (USoCar)... I have seen many pople "all over" the gamecocks today, but even without Schaub at the helm the Cavaliers are a better team. They win by a touch in a good game. 24-17.

COLO -3 (UCLA)... Too much size and running for the Bruins to handle. Colo looked good last week in there Kryptonite game (they always lose to CSU). Barnett has a much better record once he gets past the opener. Look for the buffs to run all over em.

WAS -24.5 (IU)... I called Indiana one of my "worst teams in the country". Even if Pickett and company are over-rated, they score early and often in this one. The soft Huskie D learns how to tackle this week and they mail this one in by 35.

Texas Tech -13.5 (NewMex)... One thing to remember here. You don't mess w/ the Red Raiders at home on the fast track. They should light up the scoreboard once again and win this easily. They are a monster at home.

OU -7.5 (Bama).. Despite all the naysayers out there who have been ragging the Sooners all week, they will come back to reality tonight when the Sooner Schooner rolls over the tide. White stays healthy, OU wins easily. Too much D for em.

FSU -15 (MD).. This was going to be a double your 401k bet, but the line is shooting up faster than a Tijuana Crack Whore. MD cannot/has not/and will not ever beat FSU, plain and simple. They are still banged up and will get run right out of the stadium when they get a taste of the Seminole speed. Sorry Terp fans, you just started 0-2. Hey, Basketball is only 2 months away, you can get your revenge then!

Nice Write up Big 12. But.....

You guys are nuts. The Buffs beat Col State last week with Big Plays. They had lots of trouble sustaining drives and the QB is horrible. UCLA gets the win here. Take the 3 points.

I also like Wash St to beat ND. No last minute defensive miracle here that they get every week. Good team will take it to them and cash in. Also Like Wake Forrest. Nice little Stumbling block for the Wolf Pack and Wake is looking good this year, beating B.C. last week and the upset trend may continue.

I do like your UVA and Wash Picks. South Carolina struggled last week vs inferior opponent and have NEVER been good on Offense. UVA way better all around team. IU just plain stinks. The FSU Game may not be as easy as everyone thinks. That game makes me nervous, as does the Sooners and Redraiders.

Overall, strong card though. We seem to be butting heads on a few, but should all work out in the end. Best of luck, lets take it down!!!!!

Oh, Big 12, check out my Pit/Bal write up in that thread earlier this week. I'm telling ya pal, HAMMER IT!!!!!

Thats funny... I just posted in your thread.

I am a little nervous about the NCSU game, it's my smallest play of the day. I know they stink on the road, and I posted Wake as an upset winner last week. Hmmm, not sure why I went w/ State.

I still like CU and ND though. You might be right, but I gotta go w/ my gut!

OU is more of a pick from the heart, but I believe this is still one of the best teams in the nation, and we will see that tonight.

MD... well, they are MD. Banged up and beaten down. FSU will have no mercy for them, and I heard that all of FSU key players made bail in time to show up for the game. That SHOULD result in a Seminole blow out, just like it does EVERY year.

good luck to ya.

lol, if I remember, think you had a 401k game last year!! Thats funny. So is the line shooting up like a tijuana crack whore!!! LMAO

BigTwelveFan · Sep 6, 2003

GEEK,
That IS my double your 401k game of the year so far. I was right last year, and should be again. I cannot see ANY possible way that MD even stays competitive in this game. Noles are still flying below the radar.
As much as I hate em', FSU is a solid team this year that will once again destroy MD tonight.
