My square gambling friends, who went 1-1 last week on their 'bsp' picks love 2 games this week. I am not making these BSP picks because it's early and it's college. True BSP picks are really just for NFL, due to parity, and much harder to beat lines for squares.

They love Rutgers -16.5 [I'm on this -13], over 90%.
They love BC -14 as well. RU was also the PoTW that was most mentioned. And a few said Okla -10.5 was the Lock you can bet your paycheck on. As you can see, they like big favorites [like VT last week] and don't care when the lines move against them. Just fyi.

{RU and BC lines falling already as sharps come in, no surprise.}

total donk parlay
0.1u to win 1.26u
NW -10
BG +18
Vandy +3.5
Hawaii -27.5
def feel there is value in NW and Vandy lines, but I have enough action this week...probably too much for Week 2. Still hoping Mia/Ok total goes up.

I know and I hate it. The Louisville game was the first (and maybe last) time I've ever laid that many pts.

I like Mizzou b/c I watched the Memphis/Ole Miss game last week and I think the Rebs are absolutely terrible. Of the 23 points they scored 14 came off of a blocked punt and a 100 yard interception return. Memphis moved the ball on them the almost the entire game.

As far as Memphis (I am an alum, but not a huge Tigers football fan). Their defense only gave up 74 yds rushing to Ole Miss's #1 back and highly rated O-line. Memphis lost at home to Ark St. last year and should be fired up for this game. ASU will be as well, but last year Memphis did not take them seriously as hard as that may be to believe given that they ended up 2-10.

Also I would note that I took BG +18 but did not want to mention it b/c I know nothing about the game but trust some of the guys who like it. Me saying I took that game doesn't really add any value to the board since there was no independent analysis on my part.

I like Fla and Memphis bets, Troy should be banged up a lot more, but I also like Vandy and SoCar+4. So I'm of no help to you, I guess. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'd lean over on Rutgers/Navy. Navy's only got 3 starters back on D this year, and they gave up a ton of yards to Temple in their opener. I think the side on Rutgers is better than taking the total, but if I were to bet the total, it would definitely be the over.

Agree with this 100%.

fsu -34.5
rut/nav over 48 (got this at 5pm at a normally fast book)
ntexas/smu over 45 (same story different book)
mia/okla u 43.5

I'm on TCU -10 for a couple units. Might grab a little of the ML as well. I think if TCU gets some good field position via turnover or special teams Texas could be in trouble.
