BB:

Line only being 2 tells you all you need to know. Can see Ole Miss putting up 42. Will LSU hang with them??

TB:
378 UTSA -10
This team is explosive as they come this year. i almost won with them earlier in the year. Don't know anything about their opponent but know this team can put up pts in a hurry.

Rooting for your play on the Rebels. I hope they go to
Tiger Stadium and quiet that crowd!!

BB : Penn St -4 . Penn st is going to run all over this gopher team .They have allowed 2 100 yards rushers in consecutive weeks . Not impressed with either Minnesota QB . Penn st rolls !

TB : Washington -7.5 Cal is real bad ,I expect Washington to win by double digits . Love the Huskies QB Michael Penix he has 20 TDS already.

331 Pittsburgh 2.5

In this post-Tua Tagovailoa concussion protocols world, they’re going to be extra careful with recent KO vicms like the ‘Ville’s Malik Cunningham, who missed the Cards’ last game at Virginia on Oct. 8. But even Malik the Magnificent to be back in the saddle for the Cards, who squeezed a serviceable effort from backup Brock Domann to beat Virginia two weeks ago.
Pat Narduzzi’s Panthers, however, might be a bit of a different story, especially with RB Izzy Abanikanda looking like Tony Dorsett lately and setting a Pitts record with 320 YR in the recent romp past VPI. Which has also removed a bit of the offensive burden from USC transfer QB Kedon Slovis (only 5 TDP) and somewhat minimizing the dropoff from Kenny Picke. It's worth knowing that Narduzzi has also been paying off like a loose slot machine at the Rivers Casino, especially on the road, where his Panthers have covered their last ten non-bowl games away from what they now call Acrisure Stadium. And keep in mind that competent (like Syracuse) and some non-competent (like BC) ACC offenses have already taken advantage of a suspect Cards DENENSE

Alabama -21
ALABAMA
AT 6-1 coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Vols last week, with way to many penalties and TO's and questionable calls, have not lived up to expectation this year I'm sure Saben got after them this week and they are past due a breakout game and MSU usually catches them in a bad spot(mood) and they crush them!! Again this year I hope, looking for a blowout more than most thinkj!!

337 Houston -2½ vs Navy
HOUSTON +2.5
Navy runs, runs, runs. 72% of their yards are from rushing the ball. Houston will load the box and stop the run. Navy's passing is anemic (127th out of 131 teams). This game will be over before the 1Q ends. Houston passes the ball well and Navy's pass-D is 115th in the country, allowing almost 300 ypg. My only concern with this game is, since Navy runs the ball and eats clock, if Houston gets enough possessions to run the score up for action points. Sorry mid-shipmen you will be outclassed in this game.



TB: 383 Mississippi 2 vs LSU
Mississippi +2
When I saw Ole Miss getting 2 points, I almost fell out of my chair. They should be FAVS in this game. They are 2nd in the country in rushing averaging ~250 yards per game. LSU rush-D is average at best. Mississippi will controll the ball and eat clock and make the Tiger fans leave for the exits early.

Mississippi is 14th in overall SP+ offensive ratings and 16th in overall defensive ratings. LSU is in the mid-20s for each of those. Ole Miss beat Kentucky. They beat rival Auburn. LSU got crushed by Tenn and squeaked by Auburn and lost to Fla St..

Somehow I don't think 15.5 action points is going to stand up this week.

Thanks Tank,
I had a good case for 4 teams, that could have high action points today, and went over, all of them again. this morning settling on PITT
Looks like I went with the one that may have the fewest points its 7-7 at half time!

.
FIU, I took ML and the +14 why not on here!! just the way it goes sometimes!!

Houston was one of the 4 I liked today,
GL with the 15.5 and rest of weekend buddy

bb: 466 Denver Broncos pk
First real defense, now with some tape on new look JETS

tb:
8:15 PM 475 Chicago Bears 9
476 New England Patriots -9

Patriots are my survivor pick in all 10 or 11 pools I'm in. I think Bears could get shut out on national TV. Go BB

 

[sharpsquare]

468 Las Vegas Raiders -7

This Raiders team has had as rough of a start as anyone this season. But they are definitely a better team than their record (well at least offensively). The Raiders really need a win and should be ready to explode against a mediocre Texans defense. The Texans have been scrappy so far but Mills has always been worse on the road so the shaky Raiders D could snag a couple of turnovers in this one putting them in some short-field situations. If the Raiders start quickly this one could get out of hand.


TB: 452 Dallas Cowboys -7½
