Good calls on the UCLA game, bruhs.

Anyone else see the brawl? I didn't get to see too many 1-on-1 fights go down but Arizona had the advantage in terms of Polynesians so I assume they got the best of it.

bearcatfan · #5 10-21-11, 09:06 AM

I didn't play the game but I was leaning Arizona if anything. The new coach said he'd be using all these new schemes and stuff, which obviously means UCLA had no tape on them and thus no way to prepare for them. Throw in the fact that Rick Neuheisel is a mega-fraud and you have a recipe for an Arizona win. There was just too much uncertainty with a new coach though for me to pull the trigger.

I've got West Va -14.5 tonight. Not looking good early.

bearcatfan · #8 10-21-11, 09:07 PM

WVU down 12 at the half but I don't think you're dead yet TOK. I think they'll move the ball at will in the 2nd half. If they stop turning it over and start converting in the red zone then you might have a chance.

That score was unbelievable. Surprised WVU lost, but shocked by the margin.

No, unfortunately Vegas has figured out that K-State is a fraud and only made them -11. That's not enough for me because Kansas is just too weak.

I'm kinda liking Mizzou as well Tree.

Michael Bluth · #19 10-22-11, 09:46 AM

I like Mizzou at home but not enough to go ATS

RTG34 · #20 10-22-11, 10:13 AM

Good Saturday to all..haven't decided on my card but these are my leans, let me know if anyone agrees/disagrees.
Auburn +21 at LSU. I really don't see how week after week oddsmakers keep underestimating Auburn. Their D is playing very solid right now and with some confidence. Clint Mosely is getting the start at QB, and is the best pocket passer the Tigers have. I doubt Auburn wins, but they will make LSU earn it, even moreso now with the suspensions.
North Carolina +11 at Clemson. I cover the ACC for a website and the more I looked at this, the more I have liked Carolina. UNC is solid, has a great back in Giovani Bernard, and their D is fast and talented, matching up well with Clemson. Both of UNC's losses were by a touchdown or less this year. I think they catch Clemson in a dogfight.
Wake -4 at Duke. This line has gone up from -1 to -4 in Wake's favor for a reason. Wake is a much, much better team than Duke. Duke's best wins are against FIU and Boston College. Barring too many turnovers, Wake should cover with some ease.

Good luck everyone

nd2000 · #21 10-22-11, 10:22 AM

duke got blown out by florida state last week, so u misquoted their winning streak though, still agree that wake is probably the side...

Tree of Knowledge · #23 10-22-11, 10:31 AM

I'm getting worried about EVERYONE being on Auburn. Having watched the Tiger games vs Arkansas and Florida the past two weeks, I can tell you their offense is horrible and Moseley will not help today.

My pick of Auburn is based on LSU just drudging through this game, looking forward to Bama since Ware, Mathieu and Simon are suspended.

JoeBrasco · #24 10-22-11, 11:24 AM

KU +11
Purdue +4
Air Force +29.5
UNC +10.5
Ok St -7
Navy -12
Miami Fla -3
Nevada -11.5

I was honestly thinking this is the week the top tens really start to fall ATS. I just could not pull the trigger with the exception being Air Force. I really like Auburn +21, Tex Tech +29, Washington +21 and Tennessee +30. Hopefully, I dont regret not playing those too much...

This concerned me as well. Good luck with the play. I'll be watching this one closely..

I like UNC as well RTG.

Looks like this might get out of hand. UNC might have a shot at a backdoor cover.

turpinspartan08 · #28 10-22-11, 01:36 PM

Wisconsin -7

bearcatfan · #29 10-22-11, 03:22 PM

I'm already 0-2 and looking like 1-1 at best for the 3:30 games. I think I'm going to call it a day and not play the night games. I'm just not feeling it today. My picks sucked, nd's picks are sh1t, favorites are clobbering again....it just feels like one of those days where a bad day could turn into a horrendous day if I'm not careful. I'll just cut my losses here I think.

At least UC won today.

Tree of Knowledge · #30 10-22-11, 04:08 PM

Sure enough, Auburn is getting schooled.
