4 Unit Play. # 177. Take Louisiana Tech +13.5 over Auburn (Saturday @ 7pm est). I know that Auburn is looking to rebuild from last year's disappointment - but I expect them to struggle in this game. The Tigers were a dismal 2-9 ATS last year. I just don’t see the Tigers magically improving this year. After all, there are still questions regarding the quarterback situation of this team as both Burns and Todd have their faults. First year coach Malzahn has a lot of pressure to produce results as if the Tigers are willing to get rid of a coach who went 75-27, certainly, they will can the new guy if he has subpart performance early. Louisiana Tech returns quite a bit of starters from last year and this team moved the ball well last year. In fact, La Tech should be able to move the ball very effectively as this team is familiar with the system they run as compared to Auburn who is trying to get used Malzahn's way of doing things. I expect La Tech to be in sync earlier in the game and consequently to fall within the spread and even have a shot at winning this game outright.



4 Unit Play. # 156. Take Oklahoma State -5 over Georgia (Saturday @ 3:30pm est). I just don't buy into the University of Georgia - yet. With a new quarterback and running attack, this team will find it tough in Oklahoma State. OSU is extremely well coached and this is a big game for their program. By handling the Bulldogs, this team can pave the way for what looks to be a very promising season. This team had a tough loss against Oregon in their last contest that they would like to forget and certainly this team has wonderful new facilities at their disposal. Heck, when Boone Pickens throws money down on your school, he expects a return. The Cowboys ended last season 6-0 ATS as a home favorite and are 15-6-1 ATS as favorites by this margin. I'm a fan of Coach Mark, but I just don't see his team being in sync this early on as I feel like they simply have too many holes to fill

4 Unit Play. Take Over 191 Atlanta Dream @ Phoenix Mercury

Note, I do see some spot 191.5 around but most are 191 currently. Nevertheless, I have this game going over 200. Atlanta comes off a nice win at Sacramento where this team put up 98 points. This team should put up even more against Phoenix on the road. Atlanta was very successful against Phoenix last time out at home winning 106-76. Phoenix certainly remembers that dubbing and would love to get revenge here. The line quickly moved up from -4.5 to -6 upon opening. But, it is hard to roll with Phoenix given that 73% of the public is also on them. I do suspect that Phoenix does well today and likely covers but I still do not want to touch a game that has the public so much on it. Rather, we will indirectly take Phoenix and Atlanta for that matter by taking the Over. With Phoenix having revenge and wanting to put up a ton of points, with Atlanta playing so well right now, and as the late eight games for the Dream have gone over, I look for this game to likely topple 200 points today.
