    Colorado St. +18 @ BYU
    Pittsburgh +1.5 @ NC State

    Coug, we need a bust-out week here.

    I RARELY play my Spartans, but this will be the week. I think the Badgers are a fraud and their offense is a much better matchup for our D than the last 2 weeks.

    Like the looks of Buff and Pitt....

    Alry,

    Was going off the lines here http://www.vegasinsider.com/college-...dds/las-vegas/

    MSU,

    It's time. Time to really do some work and get the job done. I trusted you last year for Big 10 games...time to make some money

    New Mexico State is worse than New Mexico. I'd just leave that game alone.

    I know they are terrible...but Jesus Christ watching New Mexico the last few weeks...it's hard to imagine them being almost double digit favorites against anyone

    Again the Rush yards for NMST 178.3/game vs. the rush yards allowed for New Mexico 231.3/game is pretty telling, even though I know the level of competition is very much in favor of New Mexico...I still think it's one to keep an eye on.

    Coug, I am with you on NM State. New Mexico is just awful.

    Why they hired Lockesley is beyond me.

    The guy wasn't even a good high school coach.

    Martin I just see the same matchup problems week after week...by the time the 3rd quarter rolls around the D is gassed from being on the field so long. This game will be different though as I suspect they should put up some points and be able to sustain drives. Who is QB'ing for NM is key.

    Yeah, I'm not getting some of these lines either.


    I like Purdue +7.5 a little actually (How is Clausen's knee?). UW is only getting 7 at BetJam and I thought about it. FSU is -14 there, and I'm willing to take that.

    Early lines were from http://www.vegasinsider.com/college-...dds/las-vegas/ I believe Martin posted it, but I can't remember now. FSU does tend to play down to competition, but if they can put up 50+ on BYU I think they can do it at home against S. Florida. We'll see about Purdue...they could have been looking ahead to this game (good call on NIU las). It is the one game they have circled every year. Still undecided on some of these...

    bypp,

    Will probably only hang on to a few of these. Still like Buffalo and Pittsburgh. Washington and Florida State look good, but maybe for a reason. Should have the final card up tomorrow night sometime.

    Watch out for Florida St. I know a lot of people will be on them do to there performance last week but make sure you don't let a week of football decide that a team is good. Look at the body of work and then make a decision. So be careful Coug as Florida St. is great for letdowns.

    Thanks Z and thanks Pags,

    I had a dream last night that I had a 10 team card and every play hit. I can only remember 4 teams that were on the card. Florida, Florida St., Army, and Clemson. I am so supersticious I might play them.
