Re: Week 10 Early NCAA Lines
yeah, and throwing only 170 yds a game with the first and second string tb's out, and a banged up o-line is a real hurrah, too.
now, if i were a vtech player, i'd be pissed to hell i got robbed in that BC game; no telling what i might do to another team in front of a national audience. no tellin' a'tall. maybe break somebody's leg.

Should probably also point out how indignant you were that I would have the audacity to claim that BC was better than GT on a neutral in that week's opener thread. [/ QUOTE ] I don't think I've recommended them as a bet since that week either. It's a combination of the matchups being in their favor and VT being the 2nd most overrated team in the country (behind Hawaii obv).

Re: Week 10 Early NCAA Lines
what are people doing on the BC vs FSU game.
I'm a huge FSU fan and absolutely detest BC so id like to make a spite bet if line is 7+ but it seems bad if BC is only favored by 6.5. What are others doing?

Re: Week 10 Early NCAA Lines
[ QUOTE ]
i believe the question was: why is texas favored in this matchup. nowhere did i say, take texas. and i will repeat, the number, though a betting oppurtunity if you so wish, is not without reason. osu has forced only 11 sacks on the season; they are giving up >300yds in the air, and an average of 430yds a game. they were torched by TROY for god's sake. it would appear that the return of Savage has helped their offensive output, although two of their recent wins against a beleaguered a&m (by 1) sam houston (div 2) are not stellar (no win against a d-2 team is stellar, by definition). people will point to the win against k-ste as if it were a defining moment in osu's rise to glory, but i differ. k-ste plays a 3-4, virtually a rarity in college defenses, and fields an under-sized nose tackle in the bargain (285). the other two down linemen are listed at roughly 260 apiece: osu put a center and two guards at the point of attack weighing 313, 338, and 310. after k-ste responded to this with 8 men in the box, that left them vulnerable to outside runs and the pass. against texas' 4-3 and DTs who weigh 320 and 300, that's not going to be so easy. additionally, analysts believe that texas has an outstanding crew of corners, and if that's true (i have to say, the way the deep ball in the OU game hurt them contests that belief), osu's air game may not have that great a day either. their aerial attack pretty much begins and ends with Adarius Bowman and TE Brandon Pettigrew. Even though bowman is sure to be all conference, and a likely 1st rounder in the draft, one player is not enough against a texas squad better than average in the secondary: this is not OU here. in 2006, the texas team finished the year at 9 and 3, and qualified for a non BCS alamo bowl. they have a chance, though difficult, to finish the year with the same record. i can see them doing it, neither osu nor texas tech are complete teams by any stretch of the imagination; but i wouldn't bet them to do so. you guys really need to start looking at the game before you start hooting and hollering. you just look foolish. but then, anyone who takes the Sagarin rating seriously deserves to look that way. imo. [/ QUOTE ] A&M beat OSU by 1, not the other way around.

Re: Week 10 Early NCAA Lines
here's a couple of interesting factoids: the starting vtech center is out, replaced by a redshirt freshman.
gatech blitzes an average of 32 times a game. 259 out of a total of 514 defensive plays. talk about a baptism in fire. holy smokes. -tlt
