The Sports Cruncher's 2015 CFB Week 02 Lines & Market Play

[thecruncher]

I've got the Over 54.5 in the TULN @ GT game working, with a 28-7 GT lead at half, which sets up for a nice middle play, as I like the 2nd half to now go Under. Tulane a little bit of success passing the ball, but not running. GT running steadily, but haven't broken anything of 15+ yards. Both teams playing at a not so quick pace, which will probably continue in the second half. Look for Tulane to be able to sustain TD drives, while GT chews clock.

Adding for 1/2 Unit: Tulane @ Georgia Tech Under 27 2nd half

Adding for 1/2 Unit: FRES @ MISS Over 28 2nd half

Fresno QB has completed 10-11 and they're having a little success on ground as well. Ole Miss absolutely smashing them on offense with Over 400 yards and 35 points. They should score in spite of themselves in the second half with a big lead, because Fresno can't stop anything. I generally don't like 2nd half Overs, but Ole Miss probably won't let off the gas until they're up two more touchdowns. I'm hoping FRES doesn't get shut out in the 2nd half -- it's the kind of thing that happens to these teams sometimes on the road.

Adding for 1/2 Unit: OSU -17.5 2nd half vs HAW (-115)

The Buckeyes are messing around with JT Barrett getting reps and throws and that shit is just, not, working out. Let Cardale play most of the second half, please. Max Wittek 3-16 in the first half.

 

[thecruncher]

Adding for 1/2 Unit: UGA @ VAN Under 24 2nd half

One Nick Chubb run the only offense in the first half.

 

[thecruncher]

Adding for 1/2 Unit: Rice +14.5 @ Texas

Throw out the numbers on this one -- Texas is looking downright pathetic in light of Notre Dame struggling at Virginia right now.

 

[thecruncher]

Wow, gave up two long touchdowns with 13 seconds left in two games simultaneously to kill plays. Typical.

 

[thecruncher]

Adding for 1/2 unit: PITT -6 2nd half @ Akron

 

[thecruncher]

Adding for 1 Unit: Tulsa +3 2nd half (-115)

Tulsa running the ball almost as well as New Mexico, plus their passing game is picking up big chunks with each completion, and they start the 2nd half with the ball.

 

[thecruncher]

Getting off the Rice +14.5 with Texas -7 2nd half for a 1/2 unit. Small chance for the baby middle. Texas starts the 2nd half with the ball, and is moving the ball well. They only ran half as many plays on offense as Rice did in that first half.

 

[thecruncher]

Adding for 1/2 Unit: Indiana -6 2nd half vs FIU (EV)

Indiana actually playing much better in spite of trailing by 1 at the half. FIU hanging close because of one 75 yard touchdown pass. Indiana offense having success both running and passing (though unfortunately they've only turned that into 13 points, not great for my Over 52.5).

 

[thecruncher]

Crap, was really liking Under 24.5 2nd half TEM-CIN but didn't get back in time to get on it. I liked Idaho-USC Over 27.5 2nd half and missed that too. I see it 21-7 minimum USC second half.

That Oklahoma- Tennessee game after being so low scoring ended up just one Volunteer touchdown away from hitting my Over 61, lol. At least Oklahoma came back and got the win, what a game.

 

[thecruncher]

Ha, and Temple returns the 2nd half kickoff for a touchdown. Insta-glad I missed that play by seconds (pending the rest of the 2nd half).

...and then Cincy scores less than a minute later, lol.

Idaho did get that semi-early second half touchdown, though...

 

[thecruncher]

Lol, 3 touchdowns in the first 1:34 of the Cincy 2nd half. That's a tough hold with only 3 points to work with the rest of the way.

Adding for 1/2 Unit: LSU @ MSST Under 24 2nd half

 

[thecruncher]

Almost didn't play any 2nd halves after last week's terrible run. Glad I persevered, nailed 'em like a boss.

 

[thecruncher]

Week 3 lines are up at BOL, but I'm in the middle of a spreadsheet update and not completely ready for the openers. I looked at the new lines against my pre update numbers, and there's nothing I really love, honestly. I hope to be ready to hit the totals when they open.

 

[sendacash]

What up Cap'n Crunch? Spreadsheet updates are not fun on an NFL Sunday, throw in a slight hangover to boot. I still don't have a BOL account, either too cheap or too lazy to do it, maybe a little of both but got my eye on a couple of these games and waiting for 5dimes to post.
