problem with the under in LSU/V Tech is if the defenses are so dominate that they setup offenses for a short field that much....look at the Clemson/FSU game for an example

I have OSU -3.

It just looks too "obvious", a solid Pac 10 team playing a bottom feeder. We all saw how U dub killed the 'Cuse, but I did not realize U dub doesn't start classes (lol school) till late Sept and that was opening week anyway.

Now I'm kind of worried about having a west coast team playing a 7:30 eastern game on a Thurs night, against a team that was able to scout them for 2-3 weeks. (Cincy played a jopke school in week 1). OSU also had to show most of their repertoire to win last week.

The Pac-10 doesn't employ the weekday games, but OSU played a week 2 Thurs night game in Boise last year and were mauled.

If this was mid-season or a mid afternoon Saturday game I would be a lot happier.

I hate Bama (obv) and I bet on them -3, so they are pretty much a lock to win by exactly 1 or 2 points.

Actually, I'm feeling real shaky about OSU too, after betting them. Cincy had two home games against fairly good opponents last year and they beat USF 23-6 and Rutgers 30-11. They're not really a "bottom feeder". Also, OSU's last similar game going east early in the year was a 63-27 loss to Louisville. The only reason I'm betting it is that OSU just shut down a much better offense in Utah and I can't see how Cincinnatti's going to score.

The under seems like a solid play here.

sorry just a bit of humor, one thing that worries me about temple is that it is temple who is a very inconsistent team but showed that they can possibly contend last week when they played navy and buffalo was absolutely dominated

If thats not good enough I apologize...I tried

Edit: never in my life would I think it would be a good play to lay points with temple.. until this week, guess ill see how it goes

Uncalled for. It may not have been on topic, it was just a thought that occured to me while reading Iggy's post. Just let me know it was off-topic without the needless sarcasm.

I have already commented on the games that I currently have action on earlier in the thread, but if I was on the under in Cincy/OSU, I would worry about Yvenson Bernard being too much for the Cincy front seven and Sammie Strougher taking advantage of a potentially poor kicker and kick-off coverage team (at least it was poor against SEMO St.)

GL this weekend.
