15* graded play on UL-Lafayette as they take on Arizona set to start at 4:00 PM ET. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that UL Lafayette will lose this game by 11 or fewer points. Arizona has had a disappointing season and their defense has been shredded by many teams. LAL has done well against 'giving' defenses posting a 7-0 ATS in road games facing poor passing defenses allowing a completion percentage of 58% or worse over the last three seasons. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a 34-9 ATS mark for 79% winners since 1992. This system has also produced a perfect 8-0 ATS spanning the past five seasons. Play on road dogs that are poor rushing team gaining 100 to 140 rushing yards per game and now facing an average rushing defense allowing 140 to 190 rushing yards per game and after 7 or more games and a game involving two non-conference foes. The sim projects that Arizona will have at least three turnovers in this game; not surprising for a poor record team. In past games where LAL has forced three or more turnovers in a game they are 4-1 ATS this season and 6-1 ATS the past three seasons. I stronly believe this game will go down to the wire. Take LA-Lafayette.

11-26-11 | Penn State v. Wisconsin -14.5 | Top | 7-45 | Win | 100 | 19 h 47 m | Show |
25* graded play on Wisconsin as they host Penn State starting at 3:30 PM ET. The winner of this game will play in the Big Ten Championship next week. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that Wisconsin will win this game by 15 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a 30-6 ATS mark for 83% winners since 2000. Play against road dogs off a win over a conference rival as an underdog of 6 or more points against opponent off a win by 10 points or more over a conference rival. Of the 36 plays ,made based on the criteria of this system, 21 of them or 58%, covered the spread by seven or more points. This system has gone an amazing 17-1 ATS over the past five seasons and 12-0 ATS over the past three seasons. The sim shows a high probability that Wisconsin will score 28 or more points in this game. In past games where Penn State has given up 28 or more points they are 1-4 ATS over the past three seasons and 8-32 ATS since 1992. The sim shows that the Wisconsin defense will do extremely well at containing the Penn State rushing attack. The Lions are projected to average just 3.5 to 4.0 rushing yards per carry. In past games where PSU has attained this range of rushing they are 0-3 ATS this season, 0-6 ATS the past three seasons and 7-22 ATS since 1992. PSU defense has played very well this season and have allowed only Alabama, who scored 27 points, and Northwestern, who scored 24 points, to score more than 20 points in a game. However, this Wisconsin offensive line is going to wear down Penn State in this game. I fully expect Wisconsin to dominate the line of scrimmage. Further supporting this graded play are game situations noting that Wisconsin is a solid 16-3 ATS (+12.7 Units) off 2 or more consecutive unders since 1992; 11-2 ATS (+8.8 Units) in home games after allowing 17 points or less in 3 straight games since 1992; 10-1 ATS (+8.9 Units) in home games after a game with a turnover margin of +3 or better since 1992.

11-25-11 | Arkansas v. LSU -11.5 | Top | 17-41 | Win | 100 | 5 h 35 m | Show |
25* graded play on LSU as they take on Arkansas set to start at 2:30 PM ET. As we know, the top three team sin the nation based on the BCS ranking snot only come form the same conference. But also the same WEST division of the SEC Conference. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that LSU will win this game by 14 or more points. LSU is simply going to wear down Arkansas on both sides of the ball as the game progresses. The LSU offensive line has a significant advantage in strength and size. What they do very well in the power running game, and few teams execute this any better, is that their offensive scheme forces the opposing line backers to get off of TWO blocks to get to the ball carrier. The Tigers run a ton of isolation plays out of I-formations with the fullback targeting the middle line backer. On these plays you will see the front-side guard and center will double team on of the defensive tackles and allow the fullback a clean path to the MLB. In other assignments the offensive guard will bump a defensive tackle and immediately get the to the second level and square up against an undersized line backer and then look to block a third linebacker that is converging to the hole. This too, allows the fullback to get the linebacker forcing him to get off his second block of the play. Obviously, with so many defenders constantly having to fight through two blocks is exhausting. The LSU defense is a great one. Arkansas has elite receivers that can gain separation easily and quickly, but when matchups up against the depth of the LSU corners that is all neutralized. LSU will use press coverage to disrupt the flow of the Arkansas offensive scheme and look to force receivers into route changes often. Keep a watch on LSU corner Mathieu as I strongly believe he will be going up against the Razorbacks best receiver in Joe Adams. Mathieu is one of the few in the country that can close on Adams, who is extremely quick and can get clean breaks off the line of scrimmage. If Adams impact on the game is minimized, it could be a complete blowout by half-time. Further supporting this graded play are game situations noting that LSU is a solid 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) after outgaining opponent by 125 or more total yards in their previous game this season; 8-1 ATS (+6.9 Units) off a win by 10 points or more over a conference rival over the last 3 seasons; 7-1 ATS (+5.9 Units) after allowing 14 points or less last game this season. The sim shows a high probability that LSU will gaining between 4.5 and 5.0 rushing yards per carry. In past games where they have achieved this offensive level they are 4-0 ATS this season, 6-2 ATS the past three seasons, and 25-8ATS since 1992. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a 28-6 ATS mark since 2000. Play against a road team after outgaining opp by 225 or more total yards in their previous game and facing an opponent after gaining 6.75 or more yards/play in 2 consecutive games. This system is 6-1 ATS this season. Take the LSU Tigers.

11-25-11 | Houston v. Tulsa +3.5 | Top | 48-16 | Loss | -110 | 3 h 36 m | Show |
15* graded play on Tulsa as they host Houston set to start at noon ET. PM. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that Tulsa will win this game. There is limited opportunity expand this wager and make it a combination bet involving the money line. My strong recommendation is stay with a 15* play getting the points. Enjoying its highest ranking in more than 21 years, No. 8 Houston seeks a single-season school-record 12th consecutive victory as it visits Tulsa on Friday with a spot in the Conference USA title game on the line. Houston's quarterback Keenum, the NCAA's career leader in passing yardage (17,855), total offense (18,771) and touchdown passes (145), broke the FBS record for completions (1,427) last Saturday, completing 30 of 45 passes for 318 yards and a TD in a 37-7 rout of SMU. The SMU game was far closer than the score ended and I believe they provided the recipe to contain the Houston attack. Very few teams in the FBS have the personnel to completely shut down the Cougar offense, but by playing a mix of underneath man/zone and bracketing the perimeter has shown to be effective. The bottom line is that the winner of this game will gain the right to play in the C-USA Championship game next week. Tulsa has a high powered attack of their own and Houston is just 2-12 ATS (-11.2 Units) in road games when facing good passing teams averaging 8 or more passing yards per attempt since 1992; 1-10 ATS (-10.0 Units) in road games facing very good offensive teams scoring 34 or more points per game since 1992. Tulsa has done very well against the elite passing teams sporting a perfect 9-0 ATS (+9.0 Units) facing good passing teams with a completion percentage of 58% or better over the last two seasons. Moreover, Tulsa is 8-0 ATS (+8.0 Units) after gaining 475 or more total yards/game over their last 3 games spanning the last 2 seasons. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a 28-6 ATS mark for 82% winners since 2000. Play against a road team after outgaining opp by 225 or more total yards in their previous game facing an opponent after gaining 6.75 or more yards per play in 2 consecutive games. Take Tulsa.

15* graded play on Miami (Ohio) as they take on Ohio University in MAC Conference action set to start at 7:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Miami will lose this game by seven or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 85-45 for 65% winners since 2000. Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points after 1 or more consecutive straight up losses facing an opponent after four or more consecutive straight up wins. Of the 129 plays made based on the criteria of this system, 52 of them or 40% of them covered the spread by seven or more points. This under scores my belief that Miami can win this game. With a win the Bobcats can get to nine wins, which has occurred just six times in school history. Even with a loss, they would then have identical records with Temple and kent State, but the Bobcats defeated both of them and as a result would win the three-team tie breaker. This is the 88th time to the two schools have competed in the Battle of the Bricks game. Although it is Senior Day, I am very concerned that Ohio may fall flat in this game knowing that are playing for the MAC Title. Miami is a solid 18-6 ATS (+11.4 Units) when playing against a good team winning between 60% to 75% of their games since 1992. Take the Redhawks.

25* graded play on Texas as they host Kansas State set to start 8:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Texas will win this game by 10 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 24-5 ATS for 80% winners since 2000. Play against road dogs of 3.5 to 10 points in conference tilts and are excellent offensive teams scoring >=34 points per game and now facing an average defensive team allowing 21 to 28 points per game and after 7+ games have been completed in the regular season. 50% of these plays covered the spread by seven or more points. Texas is coming off a tough loss to Missouri where they were missing several key players and the rushing game suffered. Texas ranks 15th in the FBS rushing the ball. Fozzy Whittaker suffered a season-ending knee injury after tearing two ligaments in the first quarter last Saturday. Meanwhile, leading rusher Malcolm Brown (toe) and Joe Bergeron (hamstring) also missed the game. Brown is doubtful for this game and I expect Bergeron to play tonight based on public reports released Friday. Texas is very deep at running back and I am not concerned simply because the Texas offensive line has a massive advantage against K-State

Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 34-10 ATS for 77% winners since 2000. This system has produced a 17-3 ATS record for 85% winners spanning the past five seasons. Play on any team after outrushing opponent by 150 or more yards in 2 straight games facing an opponent after being out rushed by 150 or more yards last game. Of the 44 plays made based on this remarkable system, 23 of them or 55% covered the spread by seven or more points. This under scores my strong belief that Navy will win this game by double digits. The sim shows a very high probability that Navy will gain 300 or more rushing yards in this game. In past games where they have gained 300 or more rushing yards they have gone 4- ATS this season, 11-6 ATS the past three seasons, and 56-24 ATS since 1992. The strong running attack will open easy to execute pass plays using play action. Navy may only throw the ball 10 times, but the sim shows that they will average better than 9.0 yards per attempt. In past games where Navy has attained this passing level they have gone 3-1 ATS this season, 13-5 the past three seasons, and 55-16 ATS since 1992. Take Navy.

15* graded play on NC State as they host Clemson set to start at 3:30 PM ET. It certainly looks like the BCS standings are going to be vastly different come Sunday Night with Iowa State knocking off No. 2 Oklahoma State, which was a 15* winner for us last night. This game has the strong potential to add to what will be an upset Saturday to remember for the ages. I also have a 5* graded play on Southern Cal, who I think may win SU at Oregon. Although these upsets may occur, it probably only further cements the rematch of Alabama against LSU in the BCS Championship - unless of course LSU slips up. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that NC State will lose this game by seven or fewer points. I would also recommend a 3* play using the Money line as an optional wager. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 50-19 ATS for 73% winners since 2000. Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points with an opportunistic defense forcing 2.5 or more turnovers per game and after two consecutive game where they committed one or less turnovers. Supporting the upset bid that I believe will happen in this game are a pari of MONEY LINE situations. Note that Clemson is 1-7 against the money line (-12.1 Units) in road games after 1 or more consecutive losses against the spread over the last 3 seasons. NC State is a solid and impressive 10-2 against the money line (+8.1 Units) after allowing 14 points or less in 2 straight games since 1992; 27-11 against the money line (+20.6 Units) in home games after failing to cover the spread in 2 out of their last 3 games since 1992.

11-12-11 | Baylor v. Kansas +20.5 | Top | 31-30 | Win | 100 | 20 h 35 m | Show |
25* graded play on Kansas as they take on Baylor set to start at 2:00 PM ET. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that Kansas will lose this game by fewer than 17 points and that this game will be extremely close throughout. Over the 18-years I have been handicapping sports, you all have seen some of the plays in CFB that are 10 plus dogs actually win the game. This is potentially one of those situations, however I have not seen any money lines posted. If you do have a chance, place a 3* amount on that line, which obviously will be extremely high. Supporting the 10* 'Over' play is a system that has produced a 29-7 record for 81% winners since 1992. Play 'over' with any team against the total after scoring and allowing 30 points or more last game and now facing an opponent after a playing a game where 24 total points or less were scored. Further supporting this graded play are game situations showing that Kansas will have an easy time scoring 28 or more points. In past games where Baylor has allowed 28 or more points they have gone a horrid 5-14 ATS the past three seasons and 39-92 ATS since 1992. Moreover, Baylor is a weak 6-17 ATS (-12.7 Units) after allowing 225 or more rushing yards in 2 straight games since 1992. I do believe Kansas will be very successful running the ball against the Baylor run defense that ranks 104th in the FBS. Another key component to this game is that I expect Kansas to have a commanding edge in time-of-possession and this keeps the 5th ranked Baylor passing attack off the field. Baylor's very weak defense has been masked by the strong offensive output. The stats are skewed that in many games Baylor had a big lead and the opponent was made into a one dimensional passing attack. In their last game they defeated Missouri 42-39 and allowed 578 total yards. Of those total yards, 253 were gained on the ground in 40 attempts. In four of the last five games, Baylor has allowed 200 or more rushing yards. Baylor ranks 113th in the FBS allowing 36.8 points per game. In the past teams that have allowed more than 30 points per game and allow more than four yards per rush on the season and are off a game allowing more than 30 points are a dismal 11-31 ATS. If this team is a double digit road favorite and the 'dirty' home dog is seeking revenge those teams have gone just 1-14 ATS. Granted, Kansas' defense ranks slightly worse, but they have the much better running game that will sustain drives. Moreover, Kansas played their best defensive game of the year losing to Iowa State 13-10 last week and that positive momentum will carry over to this week's game. I truly believe that the 48th ranked Kansas rushing attack will dominate the Baylor defensive front that is vastly under sized and has been dominated in all conference games this season. Take Kansas as a 25* Titan play and 'over' as a 10* Titan Play.

Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 76-27 ATS for 74% winners since 2000. Play on home dogs of 10.5 to 21 points in conference games and with 8 or more offensive starters including the QB returning. Of the 103 plays made based on the criteria of this system 48 of the or 48% covered the spread by seven or more points. This system is 5-1 ATS for 83% winners. Adding a criteria that has this home dog coming off a game where they allowed eight or more passing yards per attempt has produced a 43-15 ATS mark over the past 11 seasons and has gone 3-1 ATS this season. Colorado has been decimated by injuries this season, but WR Paul Richardson and RB Rodney Stewart will be playing in this game. Richardson is the leading receiver on the team with 29 catches and five touchdowns on the season. Stewart is the leading ground gainer with 473 rushing yards and a 4.1 yards per carry average and is the second leading receiver with 28 catches for a 15.5 yards per catch average. This is the key to Colorado competing against the Trojans. Usig Stewart out of the backfield or in the slot position and hitting him with high percentage ball control pass plays. He has the quickness to be difficult to bring down in space. Moreover, these drop-off passes serve to minimize the SC defensive blitz pressure. Take the Buffalos.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Duke will lose this game by 14 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 74-27 ATS for 73% winners since 2000. Play on home underdogs of 10.5 to 21 points in conference games with 8 or more offensive starters including the QB returning. Of the 101 plays made based on the criteria of this system 47 of them or 48% covered the spread by seven or more points. This underscores my belief that this will be a single digit game. Adding another criteria to this system has produced a 42-15 ATS mark for 74% winners since 2000. Play on home dogs of 10.5 to 21 points after allowing 8 or more passing yards per attempt last game and with 8 or more offensive starters including the QB returning. The sim shows a high probability that Duke wills core between 21 and 28 points in this game. In past games where Tech has allowed this range of points they are 0-1 ATS this season, 1-3 ATS the past three seasons, and 9-22 ATS since 1992. Duke is 11-3 ATS (+7.7 Units) after a game where they forced 1 or less turnovers over the last 3 seasons. Duke quarterback Renfree will play in this game. He is recovering from a hip injury noted Wednesday, but not one that is going to prevent him playing at his best. He has completed 68% of his passes for 1800 yards and five touchdowns. He has very good accuracy on short ball control routes and these plays will eke the Hokies pressure at bay. Duke ranks 28th best in the FBS gaining 286.9 passing yards per game and I believe they have the favorable matchups to make this a very close escape for the Hokies. Take Duke.

25* graded play on BYU as they take on TCU set to start at 8:00 PM ET. I also like splitting this 25* amount into a 20* getting the points and a 5* using the money line. Have to admit, not many sports fans will be tuning into this game except during the commercials of the World Series Game 7. Yet, this is a very strong money making opportunity that can take care of itself while you enjoy Game 7. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that BYU will lose this game by 10 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 29-32 making 50.4 units per one unit wagered since 1992. Play against neutral field favorites using the money line that are out gaining their opponents by 75 or more yards per game and after gaining 6.75 or more yards per play in their previous game. This is a tremendous system that has averaged a +285 DOG play. BYU is a perfect 8-0 ATS (+8.0 Units) after out gaining opponent by 125 or more total yards in their previous game over the last 2 seasons; 9-1 ATS (+7.9 Units) after allowing 100 or less rushing yards last game over the last 2 seasons; 12-3 ATS (+8.7 Units) in road games off a home blowout win by 28 points or more since 1992. The opponent was Idaho State, but BYU did win 56-3 and covered the 43 points spread making all of the aforementioned situations valid as outlined. Moreover, BYU has gained 200 or more rushing yards in four straight games and have held four of the last five opponents to less than 81 yards rushing. TCU had a scrimmage last week defeating arguably the worst team in the nation, New Mexico, 69-0 and covered the 44

Rice is a solid 17-4 ATS (+12.6 Units) after 2 consecutive games with a turnover margin of -1 or worse since 1992. Houston is just 7-18 ATS (-12.8 Units) off 2 straight wins against conference rivals since 1992.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that UNC will lose this game by fewer than 10 points. UNC has not done well losing four of the past six to the spread. However, they are a solid 15-5 ATS (+9.5 Units) in road games after failing to cover the spread in 4 or 5 out of their last 6 games since 1992. The large majority of teams fall into this successful role. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 32-7 ATS for 82% winners since 2005.

Bearcats have always brought their best efforts when facing strong opponents and have posted an impressive 31-11 ATS (+18.9 Units) when facing good teams outscoring opponents by 10+ points per game on the season since 1992. Cincinnati defense is playing well limiting Louisville to 16 points in their 25-16 win last week and pitching a shutout in their 27-0 win at Miami (Ohio).

15* graded play on Louisville as they take on Rutgers in a significant Big East game set to start at 8:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Louisville will win this game by three or more points. Rutgers leads the nation in turnover margin at +2.2 turnovers per game. This is the ONLY reason they are 5-1 SU and ATS as their offense is extremely weak and over rated. Even with the turnovers, they rank just 48th scoring 30.3 points per game in the FBS. Moreover, they are a terrible rushing team gaining just 91.8 yards per game ranking 111th in the FBS. The Rutgers offense has converted 22 of 27 red zone scoring opportunities for 81.5%. However, they have scored a touchdown on just 55% of these opportunities. The Louisville defense is playing their best now and have held their last to opponents to offensive season lows. Louisville lost both of these road tests, but easily covered the spread. They lost 14-7 at UNC and held them to just 86 rushing yards on 38 carries and allowed 178 passing yards on 12 for 19 passing. They lost their last game 25-16 at Cincinnati, but covered the 13 point spread. Fore those of you, who like playing the money line you will certainly like the fact that Louisville is 8-1 against the money line (+7.7 Units) versus terrible rushing teams averaging <=2.75 rushing yards/carry since 1992. Although, a money line situation, I strongly believe that Louisville will core this spread and win the game comfortably.

15* graded play on on UCLA as they take on Arizona in a Pac-12 matchup set to start at 9:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that UCLA will lose this game by fewer than four points. Arizona has fired Mike Stoops and now begins the new era under former defensive coordinator Tim Kish. This is not a good team and I do not think the quality of the team play will change. What is so ironic is that defense has been the dominant reason that Arizona is 0-4 in the PAC-12 and 1-5 overall. The defensive unit ranks 117th in the FBS allowing 37.5 points per game. UCLA has a very strong running game ranking second in the PAC-12 and 28th int he FBS gaining 194.5 rushing yards per game. The UCLA defense is better than their 97th FBS ranking allowing 32.2 points per game. They allowed 49 points in a loss to Texas and 45 points to No. 6 Stanford. In two of their three wins they allowed less than 20 points. Moreover, UCLA has returned nine starters on offense including quarterback Brehaut. However, he suffered a leg injury and is expected to miss 3 to 6 weeks. Kevin prince will start in this game. So, even with the new quarterback there are eight players with the chemistry and experience that will serve them well against a struggling Arizona team. The sim shows a high probability that UCLA will score 28 or more points in this game. In past games where Arizona has allowed 28 or more points they are 5-10 ATS over the past three seasons and 17-67 ATS for 20% winners since 1992. Take UCLA.

15* graded play on Washington State as they take on Stanford set to start at 7:30 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that WSU will lose this game by 21 or fewer points. WSU has had injuries to both quarterbacks on their roster. The news has improved with Marshall Lobbestael expected to be the starter for this game and his back-up Jeff Tuel, who had a collarbone injury, is available to play in this game. Tuel entered the season as a third year starter. So, I am not concerned in the least by any lack of offensive chemistry attributed to these injuries. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 25-4 for 86% winners since 2000 and has gone perfect 13-0 ATS over the past five seasons. Play against favorites of 10.5 to 21 points after 1 or more consecutive wins against the spread and is an elite team winning >= 80% of their games and playing a team close to .500 posting a win percentage between 51% to 60%. The matchup I love in this game for WSU is wide receiver Wilson against any of the Stanford defenders. He has elite speed and quickness and at 6-4 he has big time size advantages. He has caught 31 balls for 638 yards averaging 20.6 yards per catch and five touchdowns. Take Washington State.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Maryland will lose this game by seven or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 81-39 for 68% winners since 2000. Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points after 1 or more consecutive straight up losses facing an opponent after 4 or more consecutive straight up wins. 50 of these plays or 42% of the total plays made based on the criteria of this system have covered the spread by seven or more points. The key to this game based on the sim projections is for Maryland to reach 28 points or more. In past games where Maryland has scored 28 or more points they are 61-14 ATS for 81.3% winners since 1992. Clemson is 14-46 ATS for 77% losers when they allow 28 or more points since 1992. Maryland is 12-2 ATS (+9.8 Units) in home games after failing to cover the spread in 3 out of their last 4 games since 1992. Clemson is just 4-13 ATS (-10.3 Units) in road games after allowing 14 points or less in 2 straight games since 1992. The public is all over this game betting Clemson nearly 80% of all bets. The flash stats and records surely make Clemson look invincible, but now you know exactly why this is going to be an extremely difficult game for Clemson to even win. Take Maryland.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Mississippi will lose this game by fewer than 24 points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 43-16 for 73% winners since 1992. Play against any team that is an excellent rushing team gaining >=4.8 YPR and after outrushing opponent by 100 or more yards in 3 straight games and now facing a team with a poor rushing defense allowing 4.3 to 4.8 YPR. This is a common theme in CFB where teams get on a roll and simply cannot sustain the pervious level of excellence. Even more common when analyzing SEC conference games where it is difficult for any team to win on the road consistently. I will never forget the game where Mississippi went into Gainesville and defeated the TEBOW Gators, which led to his inspirational speech that led his team to the Championship. I truly believe based on the matchups and situations that this game could end up being a single digit nail-biter for

15* graded play on Texas as they host Oklahoma State set to start at 3:30 PM ET. Add a 5* amount on the money line playing Texas. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Texas will lose this game by seven or fewer points. Texas was scorched by Oklahoma last week and allowed 367 passing yards in a 55-17 Sooner route. Texas, however, is well coached and they have posted a 16-6 ATS (+9.4 Units) after allowing 325 or more passing yards in their last game since 1992. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 81-39 ATS for 68% winners since 2000. Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points after 1 or more consecutive straight up losses facing an opponent after four or more consecutive straight up wins. 50 of these plays or 42% of them covered the spread by seven or more points. Supporting my belief that there will be a Texas upset win is a money line system that has gone 24-10 making 28.3 units per one unit wagered since 2000. Play against a road team using the money line after a game where they committed no turnovers and now facing an opponent after a game with a turnover margin of -4 or worse. The most dominant reason that I see Texas winning this game is that they will have a huge day on the ground. The sim shows a high probability that Texas will rush the ball for 200 to 250 yards. In past games where Texas has attained this level of performance they are a remarkable 24-1 against the money line (+25.8 Units) when they rush for 200 to 250 yards since 1992. Take the Longhorns.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that A&M will win this game by 10 or more points. The sim shows that A&M will use a pounding running game to establish dominance at the line-of-scrimmage (LOS) and will then open up play action pass and attack the back-end of the TT defense.

15* graded play on the Florida Gators as they take on LSU Tigers in SEC action set to start at 3:30 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that the Florida Gators will lose this game by fewer than 10 points. Florida will be starting a freshman, but do not for one minute under estimate his ability. He is 6-4 and 235 pounds and has pro caliber arm strength. He also has the size to take on the LSU blitzing defenders and has the field vision to get through several progressions quickly and before the blitz pressure gets to him. The sim shows a high probability that Florida will rush for 3 to 3.5 yards per carry and 150 to 200 rushing yards in the game. Florida is a solid 31-13 ATS (+16.7 Units) when they allow 3.5 to 4 rushing yards per attempt since 1992; 40-19 ATS (+19.1 Units) when they rush for 150 to 200 yards since 1992. LSU has not done well against teams like Florida. They are just 4-14 ATS (-11.4 Units) in home games versus excellent offensive teams averaging >=6.25 yards/play since 1992; 9-23 ATS (-16.3 Units) in home games versus good rushing defenses allowing <=3.25 rushing yards/carry since 1992. The Gators will be strong in two areas to put up enough points to pull the upset. First, an offensive line that allowed too much leakage last week must be better in pass protection. The LSU front will present a challenge, though. DT Michael Brockers flashes quickness and power to collapse the pocket from the interior, while Montgomery and Mingo are smooth and fast off the edge. Take the Gators.

10-08-11 | Florida State -10 v. Wake Forest | Top | 30-35 | Loss | -104 | 3 h 52 m | Show |
15* graded play on FSU as they take on Wake Forest in ACC action set to start at 12:30 PM ET. EJ Manuel is back this week and his athleticism will be evident on the field today. These two teams are the Top-2 passing teams in the ACC. The problem for Wake Forest is that they have not played a team with the defensive speed and quickness like the FSU unit. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that FSU will win this game by 10 points or more. I do believe FSU will win the turnover stat and those turnovers will lead to scores. FSU has had four scores of 50 yards or more in each of their first four games. This will stretch the Wake defense and it will then allow FSU to execute high percentage pass plays using underneath crossing routes. Once in space the FSU wide receivers have elite speed and are difficult to bring down. The running game will emerge for FSU as well, with the Wake safeties having to defend the back-end of the defense and not be able to help at all in run support. FSU is 12-3 ATS (+8.7 Units) in road games after having lost 2 out of their last 3 games since 1992. Take FSU.

15* graded play on Maryland as they take on Georgia Tech set to start at Noon ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Maryland will lose this game by 15 or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 34-8 ATS for 81% winners since 2005. Play on road dogs after being beaten by the spread by 35 or more points total in their last three games with the game taking place in the first half of the season. 25 of these games or 63% of them covered the spread by seven or more points. Here is a second system that has gone 101-44 making 52.6 units per one unit wagered since 2000. Play on dogs of 10.5 to 21 points after failing to cover the spread in 3 out of their last 4 games facing an opponent after covering the spread in 2 out of their last 3 games. I am not a believer in the triple-option offense run by Georgia Tech. To defend this scheme the defense must be disciplined and not over pursue and must have strong contain on the perimeter to force ball carriers to cut back into the middle of the field. Maryland has the skill players on defense and they have had FIVE game films to study in preparation for this ACC showdown. Moreover, head coach Eds. Is a solid 10-2 ATS (+7.8 Units) after scoring 7 points or less in the first half in 2 straight games in all games he has coached since 1992. Take Maryland.

15* graded play on Western Kentucky as they take on Middle Tennessee State set to start at 7:30 PM ET. I also like a 5* amount using WK on the first half line. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that WK will lose this game by fewer than 11 points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 33-8 ATS for 81% winners since 2005. Play on road dogs after being beaten by the spread by 35 or more points total in their last three games in the first half of the season. The sim shows a high probability that WK will gain between 150 and 200 rushing yards. This is not good news and supports a possible upset noting that MTS is just 9-18 against the money line (-14.0 Units) when they allow 150 to 200 rushing yards since 1992. Supporting the first half line play is a system that has gone 43-15 ATS for 74% winners since 2000. Play on dogs of 6 to 11.5 points using the first half line in conference games with 5 or more defensive starters returning than opponent. Take Western Kentucky.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that UCLA will lose this game by fewer than 21 points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 79-37 for 68% winners since 2005. Play on a road team after being beaten by the spread by 21 or more points total in their last three games and with the game taking place in the first half of the season. 57 of the 116 plays made covered the spread by seven or more points. This system is already 3-1 ATS this season. UCLA will have their hands full to play in step with the Cardinal, but they are getting 21 points and head coach Heuheisel is a solid 18-7 ATS (+10.3 Units) facing incredible offensive teams scoring 37 or more points per game in all games he has coached since 1992.

25* graded play on Wisconsin as they take on Nebraska set to start at 8:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Wisconsin will win this game by 12 or more points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 30-7 ATS for 81% winners since 2000. Play against road dogs of 3.5 to 10 points after gaining 6.25 or more yards per play in their previous game facing an opponent after gaining 7.25 or more yards/play in their previous game. Here is a second system that has hit 72% winners since 1992 for a 48-19 ATS record. Play on home favorites of 3.5 to 10 points after out gaining opponent by 175 or more total yards in their previous game against opponent after gaining 6.75 or more yards/play in their previous game. Nebraska joins the Big-10 and they get assigned No. 5 Wisconsin as their incarnation game. My sim shows a high probability that Wisconsin will out gain Nebraska by 200 or more offensive yards. In past games where this has happened to Nebraska they are just 1-9 ATS (-8.9 Units) when they are outgained by their opponents by 200 or more yards since 1992. Wisconsin is a solid 31-5 ATS (+25.5 Units) when they are outgained by their opponents by 200 or more yards since 1992. The sim also shows a high probability that Wisconsin will outgain Nebraska by 2.0 yards per play. In past games where Wisconsin attained this performance level they are an incredible 39-5 ATS (+33.5 Units) when they outgain their opponents by 2 or more yards/play since 1992. Take Wisconsin.

15* graded play on Kansas as they host Texas Tech set to start at Noon ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Kansas will lose this game by fewer than six points. Kansas is a solid 13-4 ATS (+8.6 Units) in home games after playing 2 straight non-conference games since 1992. Moreover, they have had two weeks of rest and preparation for this game. Kansas is 13-4 ATS (+8.6 Units) in home games after playing 2 straight non-conference games since 1992. I believe that if my pay here is correct Kansas will win the game. That opinion is founded on my sim showing a high probability that Kansas will gain between 350 and 400 total offensive yards. In past games where Kansas has achieved this level of offensive output they have produced a 11-2 against the money line (+10.2 Units) in home games when they gain 350 to 400 total yards since 1992. Texas Tech may have a strong offense, but their defense is quite poor. Kansas is 8-1 against the money line (+8.7 Units) in home games versus poor defensive teams allowing >=5.9 yards/play since 1992. The Tech defense is extremely weak against the run allowing 5.1 yards per carry and 226 yards per game. Another key actor is that tech is not a strong ball control team averaging 28:10 in TOP. This will allow Kansas, who is a strong ball control offense averaging 31:28 in TOP to control the game tempo and execute time consuming scoring drives. These types of drives will wear down an already weak defense and keep the prolific Tech offense off the field. Take Kansas.

The line has been overwhelmingly supported by SF bets and the line has moved up. However, the public has been wrong with line movements involving SF game to the tune of 5-19 ATS for 21% ATS winners. SF is coming off three impressive wins, but they were against weak opponents. Pitt has played a significantly tougher schedule and this

The sim shows a very high probability that Cal will rush for 150 to 200 yards and average 4.0 to 4.5 rushing yards per attempt. It also projects Cal to score between 22 and 28 points. In past games where this level of achievement was attained Cal is 14-1 ATS (+12.9 Units) in road games when they rush for 150 to 200 yards since 1992; 6-0 ATS (+6.0 Units) when they rush for 4 to 4.5 yards per attempt over the last 3 seasons; Washington is just 5-19 ATS (-15.9 Units) in home games when they allow 22 to 28 points since 1992.

25* graded play on North Carolina as they take on Georgia Tech in ACC action set to start at Noon EST. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that UNC will lose this game by 6 or fewer points and has a tremendous opportunity to win the game. Consider an optional wager placing an 18* on the line and a 7* using the Money Line. GT has played some soft competition to attain the number one rushing and offensive team rankings in the nation. They set school records last week in a 66-24 win over Kansas. They part of this game that most observers are missing is that North Carolina will be able to score against GT defense. They also have the type of ball control offense that can keep the GT option offense on the sidelines. UNC has the athletes that can disrupt the option scheme. The sim shows a high probability that UNC will score 28 or more points and will be able to average 4.0 to 4.5 yards-per-rush in this game. In past games where these levels of performance were achieved UNC has posted a 6-0 ATS (+6.0 Units) when they score 28 or more points over the last 2 seasons; 16-4 ATS (+11.6 Units) in road games when they rush for 4 to 4.5 yards per attempt since 1992. GT is just 22-55 ATS (-38.5 Units) when they allow 28 or more points since 1992. Moreover, GT is just 2-13 ATS (-12.3 Units) off 2 or more consecutive overs since 1992. Take North Carolina.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that LA-Tech will lose this game by fewer than seven points and has an excellent shot a possible upset win. Consider making a combination bet with a 12* getting the points and 3* using the money line. The simulator shows a very high probability that LA-Tech will score 28 or more points in this game. In past games where they have allowed 28 or more points to an opponent they are 1-9 ATS over the past three seasons. LA-Tech is a solid 50-18 ATS (+30.2 Units) when they score 28 or more points since 1992. This is game where the strengths will be the Tech power running game facing a strong Houston passing attack.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Duke will lose this game by seven or fewer points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 35-11 ATS for 76% winners since 2005. Play on a road team after a loss by 17 or more points facing an opponent after scoring 17 points or less in two straight games. Even more impressive is that 25 of these plays or 54% of them covered the spread by seven or more points. This underscores the potential for an upset win by Duke. Adding an optional 3* play to the Money Line is something certainly worth considering or you could create a combination bet with a 12* amount getting the points and a 3* amount using the money line. The sim shows a high probability that Duke will gain more total yards than BC. In past games where Duke has achieved this level of performance they are 11-1 ATS since 1992.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that MSU will lose this game by three or fewer points and has an excellent shot at winning the game. I strongly believe that MSU will be successful on offense and will gain a minimum of 400 offensive yards. In past games LSU is just 8-21 ATS losing 15.1 units when they allow 400 to 450 total yards since 1992. Moreover, MSU is a rock solid 11-2 ATS (+8.8 Units) after scoring 20 points or more in the first half in 2 straight games since 1992.

25* graded play on Michigan as they take on Notre Dame set to start at 8:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Michigan will lose this game by three or fewer points and has an excellent opportunity to win the first-ever home night game in Michigan history. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 28-7 ATS for 80% winners since 1992. Play on a home team that was a weak defensive team from last season that allowed 400 or more total yards per game and with 16 total starters returning and the game taking in the first two weeks of the season. The sim shows a high probability that the Michigan defense is going to play extremely well, especially against the pass. The sim shows a high probability that ND will gain less than 300 net passing yards. ND is just 2-10 ATS (-9.0 Units) in road games when they gain 250 to 300 net passing yards since 1992. South Florida ran 42 running splays in their win last week over Notre Dame and Michigan has a far superior rushing attack than South Florida. Notre Dame will be forced to bring seven and eight defenders into the box and this in turn will open up excellent passing situations that will be in man-coverage situations. I strongly believe that Michigan RB Robinson will be successful running the ball and he will be sued in a variety of formations and situations. He will be used under center and out of the shot-gun, He had 502 total yards combined offense and scored the winning TD with 27-seconds left in the game in last year

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Toledo will lose this game by 17 or fewer points. Toledo returns 18 starters with nine each of on offense and defense and this will be a significant advantage for them to compete more evenly with a reloading Ohio State team. Toledo is also a solid 14-4 ATS (+9.6 Units) off a home blowout win by 28 points or more since 1992. Supporting the first half line is a system that has produced a 114-63 ATS mark since 2001.

15* graded play on Florida International as they take on Louisville Friday night set to start at 7:00 PM ET. My proprietary simulator and statistical database shows a high probability that FI will lose this game by less than three points and has an excellent opportunity to win the game. Head Coach Mario Cristobal has his Panthers headed in the right direction. Many times when a team posts it's first winning season after becoming a D-1 member they suffer in road tilts. However, I strongly believe that FI is well coached and will not suffer any letdown whatsoever. Further, Louisville may get caught looking to next week's shown for state bragging rights against Kentucky. Further supporting this graded play are game situations that work against Louisville and 'for' FI. Louisville is just

15* graded play on Maryland as they take on Miami set to start at 8:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Maryland will win this game by five or more points. The seven suspensions have devastated the Hurricanes team. Quarterback Harris is out, which is actually the only good thing about the suspensions as Morris is the better quarterback. The positives stop there though and I strongly believe that the Maryland offense that ranked second best in scoring offense in the ACC at 32 PPG will have NO trouble scoring points against the Hurricane defense. There will be true freshman and red shirt freshman filling in on defense and have had limited time to prepare for Maryland and learn the defensive scheme. The suspensions have overshadowed the coaching debuts of two highly respected coaches. Former Temple coach Golden will make his debut for the Hurricanes while former UCONN coach Edsall makes his for the Terrapins. Edsall is 17-5 ATS (+11.5 Units) in a home game where the total is between 42.5 and 49 in all games he has coached since 1992. Making matters worse for Miami is that they are on a 1-5-1 ATS run in road openers. Take Maryland.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that LSU will lose this game by three will win this game. The LSU defense will cause Oregon quarterback Darron Thomas all sorts of problem sin this game. Last year the Oregon offense was as good as was his reads and he did struggle mightily against Auburn and California. LSU has a similar defensive scheme as those two opponents.

15* graded play on south Florida as they take on Notre Dame set to start at 3:30 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that South Florida (SF) will lose this game by fewer than 10 points and has an excellent shot and winning in South Bend. Given this prospect consider adding a 4* amount using the Money Line. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 32-3 ATS for 92% winners since 1992 and has gone a perfect 14-0 ATS since 2000. Play against any team in the first week of the season and after closing out last season with three or more straight spread covers and is a team that had a good record last season winning 60% to 80% of their games and playing a team that had a winning record. 72% of these games covered the spread by seven or more points and this under scores by strong belief that this will be a very close game. Although Notre Dame returns eight starters on defense they are going to have their hands full with SF quarterback B.J. Daniels. he had been recovering from a hamstring injury, but based on published reports he is 100% for this game. Moreover, we have SF head coach Skip Holtz, the son of Lou Holtz, who won a National Champions as head coach of the Irish, making a return to South Bend. The key to this game will be exposing the Irish cornerbacks. Daniels will be able to get man coverage for his two elite WR in A.J. Love and Sterling Griffin. If the Irish choose to play cover-2, then Daniels can dissect that defense with a very good TE in Evan Landi. He is 6-3 and 220 pounds and has the speed to be a threat along the seams in play action situations. he has significant athletic advantages over any Irish linebacker that would be forced to try and defend him. Take South Florida.

My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Baylor will lose this game by fewer than three points and I strongly believe they will win this game. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 28-6 ATS for 82.4% winners since 2000. Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points in the first month of the season and after closing out last season with two or more straight losses and had a winning record last season.

Play on dogs of 3.5 to 10 points in the first month of the season that was bowl team from prior season who lost their last two games. Here is a third system that has produced a 28-7 ATS winning mark for 80% winners since 2000. Play on home dogs of 3.5 to 10 points and is a team that had a winning record last season playing a non-conference foe. My simulator shows high probabilities that Baylor will gain 5 to 5.5 rushing yards per attempt and score 28 or more points in this game. Note that in past games where these levels of achievement were achieved Baylor is a near perfect 14-1 ATS (+12.9 Units) when they rush for 5 to 5.5 yards per attempt since 1992. Moreover, Baylor is a solid 41-15 ATS (+24.5 Units) when they score 28 or more points since 1992. TCU is just 17-46 ATS (-33.6 Units) when they allow 28 or more points since 1992.

09-01-11 | Wake Forest +6 v. Syracuse | Top | 29-36 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 36 m | Show |
15* graded play on Wake Forest as they take on Syracuse set to start at 8:00 PM ET. My proprietary sports handicapping database and simulator shows a high probability that Wake Forest will lose this game by fewer than six points and has an excellent opportunity to win the game. With that said, consider adding a 4* amount using the money line. Supporting this graded play is a MONEY LINE system that has produced a record of 79-91 for just 46.5% winners, but has made a whopping 71.4 units per one unit wagered. Play on dogs of +155 to +300 using the money line with 5+ more defensive starters returning than opponent and with the game taking place in the first month of the season. The average play for this system has been a +205 DOG. Here is a second system that has produced a 31-42 record for just 42.5% winners, but has made a whopping 61 units per one unit wagered. Play on a road team using the money line that was a poor team from last season that was outscored by opponents by 10 or more points per game and with six or more offensive starters returning. The average money line play has been an incredible +332 DOG. I cannot over emphasize the advantage that teams have in the first part of the season that have the majority of starters returning from the previous season. The Syracuse defense ranked seventh nationally allowing 301 YPG, but that was against some soft opponents. That defense lost six starters including both defensive tackles, both corners, and their leading tackler Derrell Smith. Wake lost two key players due to off-the-field-conduct in DE Kevin Smith and academic woes in Kevin Johnson. However, Wake returns an ACC high 58 lettermen to this year

15* graded play on Boston College as they take on Nevada in the Kraft Fight for Hunger Bowl set to start at 9:00 PM ET. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that BC will lose this game by fewer than 7 1/2 points and has an excellent shot at winning the game.
The Matchups Senior quarterback Colin Kaepernick has been the best athlete possible to execute the unique pistol offense run by the Wolfpack.. He was supported by senior running back Vai Taua and they have given the Wolf Pack offense a very strong cohesiveness. Kaepernick threw for 2,830 yards and 20 touchdowns and rushed for another 20 touchdowns. Tau has eclipsed the 100 yard rushing mark 26 times in his career. He scored 22 touchdowns, which is tied for best in the FBS with Oregon |

25* Titan Play on Arkansas
Background Ohio State is playing in their sixth straight BCS bowl game while Arkansas is making their BCS debut. Interesting too is that Ohio State has never defeated a team from the Southeastern Conference in a bowl game sporting an 0-9 record. Ending this horrid streak is certainly one of their top priorities entering this game. This game will feature two of the top quarterbacks in the country in Ohio State |

01-01-11 | TCU -3 v. Wisconsin | Top | 21-19 | Loss | -105 | 22 h 8 m | Show |
25* Titan Game of the Year play on TCU. The simulator shows a very high probability that TCU will win this game by five or more points. The simulator also shows and is further outlined below that PSU will have less than 150 net passing yards. Note that TCU is a solid 16-3 ATS when their defense allows 150 or less net passing yards over the last 3 seasons. No doubt in my mind that TCU will score 28 or more points in this game. Wisconsin is 14-43 ATS (-33.3 Units) when they allow 28 or more points since 1992.
Two top-5 teams square off in this BCS bowl as Mountain West Champion and No.3 ranked TCU (12-0, 8-0 MWC) takes on Big-10 Champion and No.5 ranked Wisconsin (11-1, 7-1 Big Ten) in the Rose Bowl. This is an intriguing matchup of strengths with TCU sporting the best defense in the nation going up against a Wisconsin team that has scored 70 or more points on three occasions. However, TCU uses a 4-2-5 scheme used to stop the prolific passing attacks employed by most teams in the MWC. Wisconsin is a polar opposite with a stable of strong powerful running backs. There is no doubt that TCU will confuse Wisconsin with 4-3, 4-2-5, and even 3-4 looks in this game to contain the running game. National Rankings Wisconsin is a power run dominated offense that ranks 12th nationally gaining 247.3 points per game. The passing game is quite adequate and under rated ranking 73rd gaining 202.8 yards per game. They have done an excellent job scoring points ranking 4th in scoring offense at 43.3 points per game. The Badger defense ranks 29th allowing 20.5 points per game. The scoring is inflated however, as they scored 70 points against Austin Peay, 83 points against Indiana, and 70 against Northwestern. These were games where, in my opinion, the score did not need to get this out of hand and greater sportsmanship could have been observed. Moreover, given that these three games were against vastly inferior foes gives reason that Wisconsin is not a top-10 offensive team. TCU, as mentioned, ranks first in scoring defense allowing 11.4 points per game. The rushing attack has been stellar ranking 8th gaining 261.2 yards per game. The passing game has benefitted greatly from the read-option rushing attack ranking 53rd gaining 230.3 points per game. Coincidently, TCU is tied for fourth place with Wisconsin in scoring offense at 43.3 points per game. Yards per Point Stats These stats are based on games played against bowl playing teams and give greater insight to this matchup. Generally, readings in the 15 yards per point range reflect the average Division I football squad. Offensively, numbers below 15 reflect an increasingly explosive type of team while numbers above 15 reflect a team that struggles to move the ball and/or sustain scoring drives. Defensively, the inverse is fact, with numbers above 15 reflecting an increasingly dominant defense and numbers falling below 15 an increasingly struggling defense. The TCU offense has scored 40 points and allowed 14 points per game against bowl playing teams. They have gained 228 yards rushing yards and allowed 103 per game. They have gained 255 passing yards while allowing 147 passing yards per game. The Wisconsin offense has score 41 points and allowed 27 points per game against bowl playing teams. They have rushed for 235 yards while allowing 155 rushing yards per game. They have gained 183 passing yards while allowing 216 passing yards per game. Breaking it down to yards per point clearly shows why TCU is the better team. TCU has posted an offensive reading of 12.1 yards per point while the defense has posted an impressive 17.9 yards per points. This means that they need only gain 12.1 yards to score one point on average. They have made offenses work extremely hard having to gain 17.9 yards to score one point on average. Wisconsin |

12-31-10 | Notre Dame v. Miami (Florida) -3 | Top | 33-17 | Loss | -100 | 5 h 11 m | Show |
This is a marquee matchup of two high profile teams that have fallen on lean times and far too many disappointing seasons. Notre Dame (7-5, 2-2 away) takes on Miami (7-5, 5-3 ACC) for the first time in 20 years and although the game sold out in less than 24 hours, neither team is very excited about being part of the Sun Bowl. It is not that the Sun Bowl is not a great event with great weather and sun drenched skies, but rather that any top level program does not start the season with goals of attending the Sun Bowl.

12-30-10 | Washington v. Nebraska -13 | Top | 19-7 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 10 m | Show |
This is a monumental mismatch with No.18 Nebraska (10-3, 6-2 Big 12) taking on Washington (6-6), 5-4 Pac-10) playing each other for the second time this season and will face each for a third time next September. I think it is safe to say that Nebraska will win all three of these matchups. Most importantly, I see Nebraska easily covering the 14 point spread in this game. As an added bet I also like a small play on Nebraska using the first half line.
National Rankings Nebraska is a run dominated offense ranking ninth in rushing offense gaining 259.6 yards per game and ranking 109th in passing gaining 154.6 yards per game. Their defense has been one of the best in the country and ranks eighth in scoring defense allowing just 17.2 points per game. The Husker defense is even stronger than their ranking as they play in the tough Big-12 conference. Washington is in a bowl game and their national rankings and quality of play cause wonder why they are in this bowl game or any bowl game quite frankly. The Huskies rank 76th in passing offense gaining 200.3 yards per game and 46th in rushing offense gaining 164.2 yards per game and rank a very poor 93rd in scoring offense at 22.1 points per game. Making matters worse is their defense has been torched on numerous occasions this season and rank 93rd in scoring defense allowing 31.2 points per game. Previous Game These two teams met on September 18 and Nebraska crushed Washington 56-21and were favored by just 2 1/2 points. This was a game that had a ton of anxieties for the Nebraska team and their faithful fans wondering how quarterback Taylor Martinez would perform in his first road start. The answer was quickly determined as he ran for 137 yards and three touchdowns. One of these touchdowns was a rookie record for the longest touchdown. On the first play from scrimmage in the second half he darted for an 80 yard touchdown. In addition, he threw for 150 yards with one touchdown. Nebraska had three 100 yard rushers and marked the first time Washington had allowed this to happen in their school history. Point is that Nebraska is an even better and more mature team then when they played this game against Washington while Washington has not shown any significant improvement, especially on the defensive side. Nebraska recorded 21 first downs to just 13 for Washington. They overwhelmed Washington in every meaningful game stat and out gained Washington by 287 total offensive yards. That difference is more than double the 246 yards that Washington gained. Concern regarding the BIG-12 Championship loss In my opinion, the reason the line appears low to me is the fact that Nebraska is coming off a very emotional loss to Oklahoma in the Big-12 Championship. They were leading 17-0 in the second quarter before turning the ball over four times and essentially giving the game to Oklahoma. However, the team has had more than three weeks to mend and I have no doubt they will come out in this game and play with complete focus and motivation. One of the dominant themes coaches use is to motivate players in this type of situation is emphasizing the opportunities the players have had by attending Nebraska and the need to win this game so that this year |

12-29-10 | Illinois v. Baylor -1 | Top | 38-14 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 53 m | Show |
15* graded play on Baylor as they take on Illinois in the Texas Bowl set to start at 6:00 PM EST
Illinois (6-6, 4-4 Big Ten, 7-4 ATS) had missed the bowl season the past two seasons, but this is the first time in 16 seasons that Baylor (7-5, 4-4 Big 12, 5-6 ATS) has made a bowl appearance. Baylor last played in the 1994 Alamo Bowl losing 10-3 to Washington State. This will be a very interesting game to watch as both teams have strong offenses scoring nearly the same points per game, but execute in two totally different manners. Illinois is a run dominated offense, while Baylor loves to throw the ball, but in a balanced attack. The proprietary simulator shows a high probability that Baylor will win this game by more than three points. National Rankings Illinois ranks 57th nationally gaining 385.8 total offensive yards per game, 115th in passing gaining 154.3 yards per game, 13th in rushing gaining an impressive 242.3 yards per game, and 34th in scoring at 32.1 points per game. Baylor ranks 12th nationally in total offensive yards gaining 478.5 yards per game, 20th in passing gaining 287.3 yards per game, 23rd in rushing gaining 200.5 yards per game, and 29th in scoring at 32.6 points per game. Defenses are highly suspect These two teams have used their high octane offenses to offset weak defenses that made a ton of mistakes in each game.

12-27-10 | Georgia Tech +3 v. Air Force | Top | 7-14 | Loss | -115 | 23 h 34 m | Show |
15* graded play on Georgia Tech as they take on Air Force in the Independence Bowl set to start at 5:00 PM ET. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that GT will lose this game by fewer than two points and has a an excellent shot at winning the game. Georgia Tech comes into this game with the best rushing offense in the nation averaging 327 yards per game. Air Force is second best gaining 317.9 rushing yards per game. The major difference between these two teams is the quality of their opponents with GT playing a difficult ACC schedule and Air Force a far easier MWC schedule. GT has a significant size advantage with their defensive front going up against an Air Force offensive line averaging just 267 pounds per player. The AF offensive line is designed to be quick and they use slide blocking attacking the legs of the defender. Air Force did not face a defensive front with the power and size of Georgia Tech. Air Force quarterback Jefferson is not a solid decision maker and is highly inaccurate. Even in play action pass situations the GT secondary led by safety Jerrard Tennant can recover with superior closing speed on the wide AF wide receivers. The Falcons may get 6-foot-5 wide receiver Kevin Fogler back from a knee injury. Even at 100% the GT secondary ash the personnel to blanket him. The GT offense has a size advantage featuring the bruising running of Anthony Allen, who can wear down a defense on his own merit. Give that Air Force is banged up and has two key injuries on the defensive front makes them very vulnerable to fatigue and that is when the big plays will happen for GT. The Yellow Jackets have gained 225 or more rushing yards in five straight games. Head coach Johnson is 9-1 ATS (+7.9 Units) in road games after gaining 225 or more rushing yards in 5 straight games in all games he has coached since 1992. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 34-13 against the money line and has made 24.6 units since 1992. Play against all teams with a money line of +135 to -155 after outrushing opponent by 125 or more yards last game and is an excellent rushing team gaining more than230 rushing yards per game and is facing a team with an average rushing defense allowing 140-190 rushing yards per game.

Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Navy will lose this game by fewer than three points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 43-19 ATS for 69.4% winners since 2000.

Note that Navy is a solid 20-5 ATS (+14.5 Units) in road games when they allow 150 to 200 rushing yards since 1992. Navy is on several positive runs noting they are 13-1 ATS (+11.9 Units) against Mountain West conference opponents since 1992; 44-16 ATS (+26.4 Units) as a road underdog since 1992. Take NAVY.

15* graded play on Troy University as they take on Ohio University in the New Orleans Bowl set to start at 9 PM ET. This game is taking place in the Superdome in New Orleans, LA. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Troy will win this game by more than three points. Ohio is 0-4 in all bowl games played in school history and Troy is a seasoned bowl university having played five bowls in the past seven years. The Ohio defense will not be able to contain the best scoring offense in the Sun Belt Conference. Troy averaged 32.9 points per game while the Ohio Bobcats yielded 21.8 points per game and allowed 332.7 yards per game. Troy was also first in the conference in offense gaining 441.1 yards per game. Troy is a near perfect 8-1 ATS after gaining 450 or more total yards in 2 consecutive games over the last 2 seasons; 11-3 ATS after outgaining opponent by 125 or more total yards in their previous game over the last 3 seasons.

My proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Army will lose this game by fewer than 7 points and has a solid opportunity at an upset win. Consider an optional wager betting 20* on the line and a 5* amount on the money line. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 43-16 ATS for 73% winners since 1992. Play against any team that is an excellent rushing team gaining >=4.8 yards per rush facing a team with a poor rushing defense allowing 4.3 to 4.8 yards per play and after outrushing opponent by 100 or more yards in three straight games. Supporting the upset bid is a solid money making money line system that has produced a 44-47 record and made a whopping 47.5 units since 2005. Play on dogs of +155 to +300 using the money line after allowing eight or more passing yards per attempt in two straight games and with an experienced QB returning as starter. Navy is certainly a running team and they rank fifth nationally gaining 302.5 yards per game. They rank 40th in scoring offense at 31 points per game and rank 45th in scoring defense allowing 22.8 points per game. Army is a near mirror image of the Midshipman ranking 9th in rushing yards gaining 260.3 yards per game and 52nd in scoring offense at 28.5 points per game. Army ranks 55th in scoring defense at 24.6 points per game. Army is vastly improved and they to have the personnel on both sides of the ball to make this a game that comes down to the final drive. I think Army will easily cover. Take Army.

25* graded play on Florida State as they take on Virginia tech set to start at 7:45 and are playing for the ACC Championship and the automatic BCS bid to the Orange Bowl. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that FSU will lose this game by fewer than three points and has an excellent opportunity to win the game. Looking at the specific matchups this game there is one situation that will have a significant affect on the winner of the game. The winner of this game will be the one that runs the ball the best and keeps their quarterback to a minimum number of third and long situations. I think FSU quarterback Christian Ponder is playing his best football of his career and did an incredible job assaulting a very strong Florida secondary in their last win. Hokies defensive coordinator Bud Foster will certainly show Ponder varying looks and disguise the real coverage. Ponder has struggled at times when his first option is taken away and then is forced to check down. However, I do not see the first option being taken away all that much given the superior speed, quickness, and athleticism of the Seminole receivers. Ponder must be smart with the first read and execute accordingly. Hokie quarterback Taylor will make big plays in his own right and the battle to watch involves the Seminole defensive ends Markus White and Brandon Jenkins going up against the Hokies tackles Blake DeChristopher and Andrew Lanier. I give a significant edge to White and Jenkins and they will keep Taylor from stepping up in the pocket. He has done a great job making the hot reads and not getting quick feet and has executed a high number of passes under duress. The Seminoles may use a linebacker to

MSU off an emotionally tiring win Michigan State had to use a 22 point fourth quarter to come back and defeat a highly suspect and inconsistent Purdue offensive team. I am concerned that the Spartans now have doubts about how good they are and entering Happy Valley is about as intimidating as any venue in the nation. Penn State is off a strong win last week and are 9-1 SU and 8-2 ATS in their last home game of the year off a 17 or more point win. Matt McGloin The National Ranks are very misleading regarding the present abilities and strengths of Penn State. They rank 58th in passing gaining 223.9 yards per game and 71st in rushing gaining 148.2 yards per game. They struggled early on and as a result have an 81st ranking in points scored at 24.8 points per game. However, head coach Paterno made a quarterback switch to Matt McGloin and he has done exceptionally well posting a 148.39 passer rating and completing 60% of his passes for 1,205 yards, 11 touchdowns and just three interceptions. With McGloin under center Penn State is averaging 33 points per game and have won four of the last five games. He was 22-for-31 and 315 yards and two touchdowns in last week |

25* graded play on Purdue as they take on Michigan State set to start at Noon EST. My proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Purdue will lose this game by fewer than 20 points. Purdue is on a four game skid and most of their troubles has been turning the ball over far too many times. However, that is about to change in this game and Purdue is a solid 15-5 ATS (+9.5 Units) after 2 consecutive games where they committed 3 or more turnovers since 1992. The Purdue offense has been struggling to score points, but again the reason they are not scoring is due to turnovers and not an inability to move the football. Purdue is a dominant running team ranking 40th nationally gaining 168.3 yards per game. As a result, they are just 115th in passing gaining 136.8 yards per game. The part of this game I like the most is the Purdue defense and their abilities to pressure the quarterback. They lead the conference with 31 sacks and Ryan Kerrigan has 11 1/2 sacks on the season. He leads that category by 4 sacks over Northwestern

Obvious that UCLA will run the ball since that is what their offensive game plan has been all season. They rank 27th nationally gaining 194.4 rushing yards per game and 116th gaining just 120.8 passing yards per game. No doubt they will be extremely successful running the ball and the simulator shows a very high probability that they will gain a minimum of 200 rushing yards and a minimum of 350 total offensive yards. UCLA is a perfect 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) when they gain 350 to 400 total yards over the last 3 seasons; 22-4 ATS (+17.6 Units) when they rush for 200 to 250 yards since 1992.

15* graded play on Connecticut as they take on Pittsburgh set to start at 7:30 EST Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that UCONN will lose this game by fewer than five points and has a strong opportunity to win SU. The Huskies have had a rough season culminating with the dismissal of their starting quarterback Cody Entres for disciplinary reasons and the search for a solid replacement. They had Michael Box start in a 26-0 loss to Louisville and he clearly was not ready for that opportunity and was overwhelmed. Zach Frazer has demonstrated that he is ready to make the most of this opportunity with a surprising 16-13 OT win against West Virginia.
Despite the inconsistencies that have dominated the Huskie squad all year, the emergence of Frazer makes them a very dangerous team for any visiting opponent to face. Still, stopping the Panther running game will be a monumental task for the Huskies, who are allowing 164 rushing yards per game. The Huskie defense has played it |

11-09-10 | Toledo Rockets +11 v. Northern Illinois | Top | 30-65 | Loss | -105 | 7 h 53 m | Show |
15* graded play on Toledo as they take on Northern Illinois in a very important game in the MAC. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Toledo will lose this game by fewer than 10 points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 143-117 using the money line and has made 68.2 units since 1992. Play on a road team using the money line off a double digit road win with a winning record on the season playing another winning team. Both teams enter this game with identical 5-0 MAC records and the pressure is squarely on Northern Illinois and they are expected to win this game and take control of the MAC West division. This is the game they need to win to achieve that with only road games against far weaker opponents in Ball State and Eastern Michigan left on the schedule. Toledo is in the same situation. Toledo has not played for more than a week and has had ample preparation time. In addition, it is not a completely negative situation having lost starting quarterback
Austin Dantin to a season ending shoulder injury they have an excellent freshman in Tarrance Owens, In the last game he threw for 234 yards and four touchdowns in a 42-7 win over Eastern Michigan. He will be able to grind out long scoring drives against the NI defense and has poise far beyond his years. Take Toledo. |

11-06-10 | Hawaii Warriors +21.5 v. Boise State | Top | 7-42 | Loss | -110 | 6 h 17 m | Show |
15* graded play on Hawaii as they take on Boise State set to start at 3:30 EST. This game will be televised by ESPN 3D, ESPNU, and ESPN3. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Hawaii will lose this game by fewer than 20 points. Hawaii comes in with the No. 1 passing offense in the nation gaining 395.4 yards per game. The offense is led by a very confident QB Bryant Monizis, who is not the elite prototype QB in terms of size, but has tremendous athleticism, a very quick release and a strong arm. This combinations makes him dangerous in their run-and-shoot offense. Boise State DC Kwiatkowski has had the luxury of playing straight defense and uses three safeties in his nickel package. Knowing that the the offense would score a ton of points allows the defense to sit back in their cover-2 and simply not allow the big play. Things will be far different in this game as the Hawaii defense is designed to throw short routes that are intended for yards after the catch. I have yet to see Boise be forced to make tackles in space and Hawaii has a stable of very quick and elusive receivers. Last week, Boise gave up a season high 172 rushing yards to Louisiana Tech last week. Their were failed assignments all over the defensive front and Hawaii can exploit that with draws and delays to Alex Green, who is strong enough to pound the ball between the tackles and quick enough to make the first defender miss. I fully expect Green to get to the second level on numerous running plays and this only compounds the problems on defense for Boise. Hawaii is 6-0 ATS (+6.0 Units) after outgaining opponent by 125 or more total yards in 2 consecutive games over the last 3 seasons; 6-0 ATS (+6.0 Units) after allowing 14 points or less last game over the last 3 seasons; 6-0 ATS (+6.0 Units) after allowing 7 points or less in the first half in 2 straight games over the last 2 seasons; 7-0 ATS (+7.0 Units) after a game where they forced 3 or more turnovers over the last 2 seasons.

11-06-10 | Minnesota Golden Gophers +24.5 v. Michigan State | Top | 8-31 | Win | 100 | 4 h 34 m | Show |
15* graded play on Minnesota as they take on Michigan State set to start at Noon EST. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Minnesota will lose this game by fewer than 24 points. The loss to Iowa ended all National Title hopes for Michigan State, who were on a five game against the spread winning streak. Minnesota has lost three straight against the spread and a big reason why is they have committed seven turnovers to just four take aways in those games. These turnovers only provide an opposition for a short field to score points and is a significant element to their 105th national rank allowing 34.1 points per game.
The Gophers have gone through a gauntlet of difficult situations including the firing of their head coach, Tim Brewster, after a 28-17 loss to Purdue October 16. Offensive coordinator Jeff Horton is now the head coach and he has had to make difficult decisions even this week. Defensive tackle and captain, Brandon Kirksey, has been suspended for undisclosed reason. In addition, he has been forced to suspend defensive back Michael Carter and defensive lineman Ra |

15* graded play on Georgia Tech as they take on Virginia Tech set to start on ESPN at 8:00 EST. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that GT will lose this game by fewer than 12 points. Adding a 2* amount on the money line if available is a very attractive bet. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 36-14 ATS for 72% winners since 2005. Play against favorites of 10.5 to 21 points and is an excellent rushing team gaining >=4.8 YPR facing a team with a poor rushing defense allowing 4.3 to 4.8 YPR. GT runs the triple option and are the best rushing team in the country gaining 317.4 rushing yards per game. My simulator shows a very high probability that they will rush for a minimum of 250 yards in this game. Note that GT 15-2 ATS (+12.8 Units) when they rush for 250 to 300 yards since 1992. Take Georgia Tech

15* graded play on Buffalo as they take on Ohio University set to start at 7:30 EST. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Buffalo will lose this game by fewer than 16 points. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 104-50 for 68% winners since 2000. Play on dogs of 10.5 to 21 points after failing to cover the spread in 3 out of their last 4 games and now facing an opponent after covering the spread in 2 out of their last 3 games. Ohio has a solid running game and then uses the passing game to keep defenses honest. However, Buffalo is a solid 8-1 ATS (+6.9 Units) in road games facing good passing teams with a completion percentage of 58% or better over the last 3 seasons. Buffalo runs a more balanced offensive attack and I do strongly believe that Buffalo will establish the running game against Ohio. Note that Ohio is just 3-12 ATS (-10.2 Units) after allowing 125 or less rushing yards in 2 straight games since 1992. The biggest factor not evident in their overall records is that Buffalo has played a far more difficult schedule then Ohio and this

11-02-10 | Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders -1.5 v. Arkansas State Red Wolves | Top | 24-51 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 6 m | Show |
15* graded play Middle Tennessee State.
The technical side of this game supports Middle Tennessee State. Here is a system that has produced a 35-11 ATS record for 76% winners since 2005. Play against all teams in November where the line is +3 to -3 after covering the spread in four out of their last five games. Game Situations As mentioned above, I feel strongly that Middle Tennessee State will have a huge night on offense and there is a very high probability that they will eclipse the 28 points scored mark. Note that in past games where they have scored or exceeded 28 points scored they have posted an 11-1 ATS mark. Arkansas State has posted a 3-12 ATS mark when allowing 28 or more points in past games spanning the last three seasons. Both teams make a ton of mistakes as evidenced by their respective penalty yards, but it is Arkansas State that fails to capitalize on those mistakes. Many times they have made numerous |

15* graded play on Air Force as they host (8) Utah set to start at 7:30 EST. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Air Force will lose this game by fewer than 7 points and has an excellent opportunity to win the game.
I had Utah as a big 10* winner last week, but this is a very tough matchup for them taking to the road to play a vastly under rated Air Force Squad. Supporting this graded play is a system that has gone 31-8 ATS for 80% winners since 2005. Play on home dogs of 3.5 to 10 points after scoring 14 points or less last game and now facing an opponent after scoring 37 points or more last game. Here is a second system supporting the upset bid and has produced a 24-7 record making 20.4 units since 2005. Play on a home team using the money line with an excellent offense averaging 6.1 or more yards per play and after allowing 525 or more total yards in their previous game. Utah head coach Wittingham is 4-14 ATS (-11.4 Units) as a favorite of 3.5 to 10 points as the coach of UTAH. Air Force head coach Calhoun is 9-2 ATS (+6.8 Units) in home games after playing their last game on the road. Air Force. |

Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Washington will lose this game by fewer than seven points and has an excellent shot at winning the game. An alternative wager to consider is place a 20* amount on the line and a 5* on the money line. Supporting this graded play is a system that has produced a record of 31-8 ATS for 80% winners since 2005. Play on home dogs of 3.5 to 10 points after scoring 14 or fewer points last game and is now facing an opponent after scoring 37 points or more last game. Washington lost week at Arizona by the score of 44-14 and were six point dogs in that game. Stanford was home defeating Washington State last week and failed to cover as 37 point favorites. Here is a money line system that has produced a 118-46 mark for 72% winners and has made 49.7 units since 1992. Play on a home team using the money line and is a good rushing team gaining 4.3 to 4.8 yards per rush and facing a team with a poor rushing defense allowing 4.3 to 4.8 yards per rush.
As an optional wager place an extra 5* amount on Washington using the first half line. This play is reinforced by a perfect 9-0 against the first half line in home games facing excellent passing teams with a completion percentage of 62% or better since 1992. This game features two of the best quarterbacks in the PAC-10 and the nation. Stanford |

15* graded play on Auburn as they take on Mississippi set to start at 6 EST and will be televised on ESPN2. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Auburn will win this game by eight or more points. Auburn has rushed for more than 300 yards in their last three games. Auburn is a perfect 6-0 ATS (+6.0 Units) after gaining 300 or more rushing yards last game over the last two seasons. There is no doubt the Auburn will dominate the line of scrimmage and wear down the Rebel defensive front. The Rebels have an excellent nose tackle in 320 pound Jerrell Powel, but he and his teammates need to do more than just hold their ground. Auburn offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn

10-29-10 | West Virginia Mountaineers v. Connecticut Huskies +6.5 | Top | 13-16 | Win | 100 | 9 h 17 m | Show |
15* graded play on Connecticut as they host West Virginia in a Big East showdown set to start at 8 EST. Our proprietary sports handicapping model and simulator shows a high probability that Connecticut will lose this game by fewer than six points and has an excellent shot at winning the game.
Problems on the offensive line The West Virginia offensive line was largely the blame for the 19-14 loss to Syracuse, who were 13 1/2 point dogs. The failed miserably to even identify zone blitzes leading to forced throws and three interceptions by Mountaineers quarterback Geno Smith. Syracuse also used delay blitzes effectively and again the offensive line failed to protect Smith. Connecticut Defense is a Major Key Connecticut has a far stronger and more athletic defense than Syracuse and defensive coordinator Todd Orlando will use the Syracuse template as the foundation of his defensive scheme. I do not see how West Virginia can correct all the fundamental offensive line flaws and then to restore unity on that unit in just one week of practices. Moreover, Geno Smith is coming off his worst performance of the season and the early Connecticut pressure may crack his confidence with immediate negative results. West Virginia is a defense first type of team and it shows in their national rankings. The Mountaineers rank fifth allowing 13.3 points per game. Their offensive rankings are rather pedestrian noting they are 61st overall in passing yards gaining 220.3 yards per game, 74th in rushing yards gaining 142.9 yards per game, and 69th points scored at 26.1 per game. The Huskies will Run the Ball Well The Connecticut Huskies running game will be a major factor in this game and they must be successful early to open up the offense through the play action pass to extend and spread the Mountaineer defense. The Huskies rank 33rd in rushing yards gaining 183.7 yards per game, 102nd in passing yards gaining 163.4 yards per game, and 60th in points scored at 28.1 per game. The Connecticut defense is solid and rank 48th in points allowed at 22.6 points per game. Game within the Game West Virginia runs a somewhat rare 3-3-5 defensive scheme featuring three safeties. Attacking this scheme with the power running game will be quite effective and may force West Virginia to move to a modified 3-4 to stop the run. If this should occur then it will open up the ball control pass plays in the flats for Connecticut. So, this will be an interesting chess match to watch unfold throughout the game. Box expected to start Freshman Michael Box is projected to start tonight for Connecticut. The 6 |
