I'm not sure about the status of McFadden's ribs, but I actually expect AU to be laying a point or two. That being said, AU traditionally has done an abysmal job of defending the run against Arky.

mmm...McRibs...

I hope he plays. I am really looking forward to seeing how he fares against Auburn's D-line. It should be an exciting game of strength on strength and I hate to see it decided by an injury. It may be off the board until we know something.

I expect Iowa to be a play this week

the public has to be all over Illinois right now
Iowa has looked like crap
Iowa at home

wonder what the line will be, but I'm smelling an Iowa play






If it's a pk, I'm definitely on Ark v Auburn
Auburn's D came into last year's game looking good...Ark just beat them up

I agree. Arkansas is a very bad matchup for Auburn.

Ark -2.5
Missou +10/11
LSU -9/10 maybe even less.

I'd say more like:
LSU -9 at Kentucky
Georgia Tech -1 at Miami

Not sure about the rest though.

After a 2-pt loss at Maryland? C'mon, be serious!

Miami lost away too, but outscored a decent UNC team 4 TDs-0 TDs at UNC in the second half [VT only scored 2 TDs all game at home v UNC]. VT only 241 yds of O and 10 pts came from a 7-yd drive and 12-yd TD drive after a pick on UNC.

UVa only had 1 TD on UNC's D. UNC's one bad game was at top 5 USF, remember. They are pretty solid now that frosh Yates and Elzy have some experience under their belt.

Remember, we're talking where the line will open, not who's better. If you think GT is 2 pts better I"m not gonna argue but I really can't imagine they open as road fave at OBowl.

When there's no obvious public lean, I find the lines open pretty much along the Sagarin predictor. Sagarin has the Jackets 4.5 points better at a neutral site. Also, if there is a square angle here, it's probably Georgia Tech's history of beating down Miami, and I could see the books adjusting a point or so for that in the opener.
