Space's Game of the Week II (1-0)

[SpaciousK]

1-0 YTD as the Hogs came through with an impressive upset of Texas last week.

Pittsburgh @ Toledo +10.5

I truly believe Pitt's walking into a buzzsaw in this one. The Glass Bowl will be packed with a near record crowd to see the highest ranked team ever to play in their stadium.
Rockets' QB Gradkowski has completed over 60% of his passes with 7 TD's vs. no picks against better competition than Pitt's faced, (UNLV, Marshall), and can pull it down and run with it as well.(122 rush Yd., 3 GP)
Toledo boasts a huge, experienced offensive line, and three cat-quick running backs, led by Trinity Dawson, who's led the team to 186 YPG on the ground.
I will admit, the defense scares me a bit, but the Rockets' strength is the secondary, led by excellent safeties, who should help slow down Fitzgerald and Co. just a bit.
Toledo doesn't get much pass rush, but they do make big plays, as evidenced by 29 TFL's and 10 forced TO's in three games.
The Panthers, although winning by three TD's, did not play a complete game last week, letting Ball St.(!) stay in the game through the first half, at home. If they start slowly again, and the Rockets avoid turning the ball over, Toledo could become the media's newest favorite MAC milking teat, and Pitt may go down as just another overhyped wannabe.

Also playing Toledo ML (+350) for .25 Units.

Good luck,
Space.

Thanks, Broke.
Sorry I couldn't hook up with ya this week.
Real busy. I will be looking forward to next week though, if you're game.

P.S. Any NFL leans thus far?

I got a thread for this week somewhere in page 3 or 4. I guess starting 0-4 won't make page 1 I don't know why, they could be 4-0. We'll see how it goes this week.

I appreciate that Pete, and believe me, you're not the only one.

The only thing U-G-L-Y have been my picks so far.

Good luck.

Thanks NASDAQ.

You aren't doing too shabby yourself. Keep it up, and I'll be coat-tailing you.

Raiders: As always, you're one of the sharper cappers going here, and you're plays are always a consideration for me.

Best of luck.

Thanks Guys.

It looks like Toledo will be the media's newest favorite MAC milking teat, and Pitt will go down as just another overhyped wannabe.

Now if I could only do something on Sundays.
