Iowa vs Penn St -10 O/U 41
Coach Ferentz is 3-1 all time vs Penn St. When you couple this in that Penn state has NOT covered the spread yet this year (0-3 ATS) Im looking for this game to be close, and much to close for comfort for Penn St. They are clearly one of the elite teams in the Big 10, but they havent proven themselves yet at the betting window. Couple this in with the fact that IOWA is 7-1 the last 8 games ATS and the Underdog is sporting a great 7-2 ATS between these 2 teams. Look for this one to go down to the final drive, take this underdog and cash out at the window. Iowa 31 Penn St 27
Illinois vs Ohio St -14 O/U 49
Illinois is going to hang in there like they have done the past few seasons, keeping it close and giving them a chance to win the game outright. Ohio St only beat them by 10 last year, and in the previous year before that, Illinois won the game straight up. Illinois has had Ohio St's number the past few season. While Illinois has had 2 weeks to prepare for this matchup with a week off last week, Ohio St is coming off a 38-0 win against Toledo, yet the first 2 games they lost straight up to USC, and barely squeeked by a sub-par Navy team 31-27. While there are a few rumors going around that the flu is starting to hit the team, the onnly known case was the punter, who will suit up for this weeks game. Another dog that should easily cash at the window by keeping it close. Illinois 24 Ohio St 33
Now I am going to give a couple blowouts for this weekends NCAA, that should easily be over by halftime, to take the pressure off the close game underdogs I listed above.
Boise St -17 vs Bowling Green O/U 50.5
Boise St. is in the drivers seat to move within the top 5 in the polls this week. They know it, thier coaches know it, and their fans know it. They have been in big games lately and know how to win under pressure. They wont recieve any pressure from Bowling Green, as they are horrid on defense, especially the run defense. Boise St will stick to running this game and dont feel sick to your stomach if they get over 250yds on the ground. This game is over by halftime. Boise St 45 Bowling Green 10
California -7 vs Oregon O/U 56
Easy game. All I have to say is 2 words to WHY this covers by halftime. Jahvid Best. Also Oregon is out of gas after the thrashing of BYU, and havent looked that ahead to this game. Covers by halftime and then some. Cal 38 Oregon 20
Now the NFL week 3 has mostly a slate full of games we wouldnt be insterested in watching, unless we had some hard earned money on it. There are a couple of huge upsets waiting to happen, and they happen in week 3 to make this week a very interesting one indeed.
Washington Redskins -7 vs Detriot Lions
You have to be a madman to give up 7 points as the leagues worst offense who has only scored 2 offensive touchdowns so far this season, and having a defense that has recoded 2 sacks and 1 interception so far this season? Can the Lions be that bad? Nope, I believe they have a chance to win this game outright, and they should be a small home favorite of -2 to -3. I just dont understand how the Redskins on the road, with their horrid stats, are a touchdown favorite, it must be the fact they are playing the winless lions. Can the Redskins score a TD against a team like the Rams, obviously they couldnt, as they won 9-7 AT HOME. And now they are giving a touchdown to a team who might be slightly better then the Rams, and they are on the road? Im eating up these +7 points, and cashing them in at the window, also laying some money on the Money Line +230! Detriot 17 Redskins 9
Denver Broncos -2 vs Oakland Raiders
Same scenerio as the Lions above. Your giving me points on the better team and at home? Yet you want me to give up points to a undeserving team on the road? The Broncos arent what their record makes them out to be. They got lucky in week 1 with a tipped pass to win the game in the final seconds. Then in week 2 at home, they thrash a team called the Cleveland Browns . . . Now they head back on the road, and take their show to Oakland, remember the last time they played in Oakland? They lost 31-10, and this year they dont have Cutler. Im taking these +2 to the window as well, as Oakland is one of the toughest places to play as the visiting team. Oakland 27 Denver 17
Now for the blowouts, games that you wont have to sweat over for an easy win to pad your pocketbook.
Baltimore Ravens -13 vs Cleveland Browns
Browns got hammered last week when the Broncos came to town ... Now we have a far superior team, and possibly this years Super Bowl champions coming in. Flacco is the real deal, and how is the Browns offense going to do with Ed Reed and Ray Lewis running around, absolutely NOTHING. Done by halftime, and the Browns give it up in the 3rd quarter. Jamaal Lewis is their top Rusher with only 95yds rushing for the season. The Ravens come in smelling blood, and look for some huge #'s on both the offense and defense from the Ravens. Ravens 31 Browns 3
Jacksonville Jaguars vs Houston Texans -3.5
Texans return home this week after a shootout win against the Titans. They are starting to feel it, and the momentum carries over into this game at home. The only thing the Jaguars have going for them in Jones-Drew, and the Jaguars will get a score or 2 from them. But keep in mind all the 3 and outs the Jaguars will have this weekend, and it wont even be close to enough. Texans 27 Jaguars 13
Cash them in at the window, thats what we all are here for. good luck guys, lets all have a profitable weekend.
