Thanks for the clarification. I have been wondering whether or not I am a loser for a long time. Looks like you cleared that up for me.

Over 5 UNITS

Both teams have suspect Defenses. Like the coaches. WVU has had nine days to plan for this National Televised game. High Scoring. The Cats let me down.

But won the nice 8 UNIT over last night.

Yeah, Greyhounds is nothing, I basically ignore him, Phillybear has so much more to offer, like someone else said, the only time I see him post is after a phillybear loss. Wow.

 

BTW like the info on last nights game, you guys made me take the over after saying how bad each defense was. ;)

 

Greyhounds be a man dude, be a man.

NCAA YTD: 26-12-1; +26.94 units

 

Going with a 2-team teaser tonight:

 

Colorado +8.5/Over 51 for 4 units

 

I want to take WV because the Big East has owned the Big 12 so far this year (S Florida/Kansas, KState/Louisville, and likely add Baylor against UConn this weekend)...but all games were on the road. Colorado is being built up nicely by Hawkins and they seem primed up for this game. The home cooking will definitely keep it close and it may be the Big 12's turn to take a victory here. I think it will be a close game throughout and can see a similar finish like the S Florida/Kansas game.

 

Good luck

Thanks for the answers to my question about "units". I am a recreational gambler to but don't know College as well as the NFL so I'll leave this post to you all. Good luck to all!

Adding West Virginia -3 2H for 2 units

 

I hope the scoring picks up to cover my initial bet but the WV defense is looking good.

Excellent call my friend !

 

 

Thanks!!!

 

I saw a stat somewhere that there has been 15-20 fewer plays per game this year due to the new clock rules. I think this will make for a LOT of unders, at least early in the year.

Can you let me know your reasoning for selecting Baylor tonight. I am leaning their way, but this game may be a no play for me.

This one of the writups I have read at the RX.

 

 

 

The Baylor Bears are on a roll. Well maybe not but their win last Friday was huge for the program and it was huge for the plethora of cappers who picked the Bears to demolish Washington State, which they did. That win has the Bears believing they can do a lot more than just win a home game against a weak PAC 10 opponent. There is no doubt in anyone's mind that this Baylor team is a lot better than the one of years past and I say that because three games into the season, the Bears are almost at their win total of 3 games from just on year ago in 2007 and I have a feeling this team is going to flirt with Bowl eligibility at some point. This is a very winnable game for these guys because the Big East has taken quite a few notches in the wrong direction this season and if Baylor can play the way they have the last two weeks, and a lot of experts really think they can walk into UConn and shock the Huskies. I found an interesting note showing that Baylor is 11-2 SU in their last 13 games prior to a bye since the 1994 season and although many of those games were quite a long time ago, I strongly believe this team is destined for good things. Their wins over Washington State and Northwestern State were impressive and you can't forget that for at least a portion of their game against Wake Forest, this Bears team did compete and they did make a game of it so they are dangerous. Baylor comes into this game averaging a very decent 36.3 points per game this season and they have managed to do that on a whopping 447.3 total yards of offense per game and 7.2 yards per play in those games. Connecticut's defense has played well this season and they have allowed only 7.3 points per game this season and have allowed 229.0 total yards of offense per game on 4.0 yards play in those games. On the ground is where I think Baylor could have some success in this one as they have averaged a whopping 242.3 rushing yards per game on the season and in those games have averaged 6.3 yards per carry. QB Robert Griffin leads the team in rushing with 288 rushing yards and 4 touchdowns which is impressive considering he passes as well as he throws. The Huskies defense has allowed opponents to rush for only 66.3 yards per game this season on 2.6 yards per carry but they have yet to face a double threat QB like Griffin which is where I think they will make some adjustments and allow themselves to pull away once they do. In the air, Griffin has completed 62.3% of his passes this season for 10.3 yards per pass attempts, 4 touchdowns and 0 interceptions (which is impressive even after playing against Wake Forest the INT machines). Connecticut's defense has allowed opposing QB's to complete 56.4% of their pass attempts this season for 5.2 yards per pass attempt. Griffin has been sacked only 4 times this season, remarkable considering the state of the O-Line, and his mobility will be huge tonight against a Huskies defense that already has 9 sacks on the season. The Huskies also have 6 interceptions on the year but they have recovered only one fumble. In other words UConn has no trouble stopping teams that throw interceptions and allow a lot of pressure on their QBs. Well Baylor does neither and I think they will actually have their offense on the move but as to how long that will last, I'm not sure. The Bears have lost 4 fumbles this season and that could be a problem because they are a team not used to running the ball so many times per game and I have no doubts they will turn the ball over when this game matters most. With a nice little dose of running game combined with Griffin's ability to find a great group of receivers on the deep ball, the Huskies defense will probably struggle early in this game until they get things together and realize that if you contain Griffin, he really has nothing but his legs and his ability to throw downfield. He is still a bit raw. This is the biggest test for the UConn defense and although they have played well, the duo threat QB is going to be a challenge

 

70% of public is on Uconn...with a line that big and Baylor hanging in every game thus far...I'll take the 12 pt head start any day.

Edit:

NCAA YTD: 14-8-2; +15.5 units

CFL YTD: 3-8: -11.9 units

NFL YTD: 4-2-2; +5.4 units

 

I like UConn, but not as a 3 unit play. They just smashed Virginia. 2 weeks ago, UConn struggled with an underrated Temple team that could beat Baylor by double digits, in a driving rain storm, where they moved the ball up and down the field, but kept missing FGs and turning it over in the red zone. U Conn hung with Wake Forest in last years bowl game before fading in the 2nd half. WF smashed Baylor at Baylor early this season in a game that was never competitive, as I watched it unfold, complete obliteration. UConn is a better team than last year, with more offensive talent. Baylor, while young and improving, has no business getting less than 17 points in this game. The fact that the line opened at 14 and went down to 12 is indicative of the overreaction to Baylor pounding possibly the worst Div I school in Wash St. Don't forget Baylor's prior game. Even though Baylor isn't a good team, somehow they are overrated at this point.

 

Edit: eh, what the hell. I didn't feel like posting last night, but I will tonight.

 

U Conn (-12) for 2 units LOSER

 

Edit again: I like Winnipeg (-2) tonight too. 3 units. Link to game. Link PUSH

Hello fellow Degents,

 

I've had the home dogs so far this week and got myself back even from the Viking debacle. How you blow a 15-0 lead is beyond me.

 

That said, DONT SLEEP ON MY TROGANS FROM TROY!!!

 

I'm staying with the dogs tonight and playing a small play on Baylor and 12.

 

My big plays this weekend will be Troy for 5 units

Arizona -2.5 for 4 units.

LSU -3 for 4 units.

Going to stick with the home dogs and take Tenn +7. (this line is stupid. This game has been 1 or 2 points the last several years. Road team giving a TD is a gift).

 

I like da Pirates of ECU but they hurt me last4 weekend. If they play decent they should blow NC state up.

Utah should handle Air Force.

Leaning towards Iowa.

 

GL everyone.

U Conn's defense looks terrible. The pick in the endzone at the start of the game didn't help. I'm really disappointed and perplexed by their effort tonight.
