Re: Week 11 NCAA Early Lines
Adding 2 more units Alabama -4
I think this is an overreaction to the UK win where MSU enjoyed a 6-1 turnover advantage against injury-riddled UK. Sagarin predictor has Bama 15.5 (!) better on a neutral, and realistically I'd be shocked if MSU were to win outright. The coaching matchup is Sly Croom vs. Nick Saban, I don't think Saban lets Bama lose to a clearly inferior team...potential Miss St. bettors, just think how you'll be feeling when they do the split-screen view of the coaches.

Saban almost lost to Houston and Ole Miss this year, and lost to UAB while at LSU. What would worry me if I bet on MSU would be Bama's receiving corps. Then again, it's letdown time for Bama. I don't like either team at that line. In fact, I don't like much of anything I'm seeing. I can't believe they got the Auburn line right. Cal +4.5 looks good, but I don't know...

Re: Week 11 NCAA Early Lines
BTW, I think Air Force should be favored by at least a TD at Notre Dame. In addition to probably being that much better on pure talent, the matchups are perfect for them. They lost to Navy largely because their rush defense is one of the biggest weaknesses on the team. With their 56 rushing YPG average though, ND won't be able to take advantage of that at all.
Also, if Notre Dame has a strength on their whole team, it's pass defense, but considering Air Force runs the ball over 75% of the time, that's pretty useless too. If I were to guess a final score for this game, it would be something like 27-14 Air Force.
