Re: Week 1 CFB Notions
For South Carolina - Miss State: Last season, the Gamecocks had a pretty horrendous run D (174 yards/game), which was also the only bright spot on MSU's offense last year (138 rush yards/gm). The offensive line for the Dogs STUNK, so it seems Norwood was the main and maybe SOLE reason for an average running game. Norwoord is gone, and while Thornton averaged 4.8 yards/carry, Dixon may be the starter. MSU's offensive line should improve, but I'm not sure South Carolina's run D will be any WORSE than last year.
South Carolina lost a solid amount in the secondary, but I am nowhere near confident in Mike Henig tossing passes to a Omarr Conner (former QB), Tony Burks (JUCO transfer, 1st year in system), and Will Prosser (catch more than 28 balls, please?). Miss State will be improved on the field, but I think with Spurrier's attack, it could be a little ugly.
Here are a couple questions:
1. So. Caro. led the nation in snaps last year at 605, will the new rules effect them more than others?
2. Do you bet straight up moneylines? If so, why?
