I really like Oregon and BC this week. No way FS should be giving points on the road right now to a ranked team. Also really like Tennessee and want to jump all over Texas, but I've been having second thoughts after reading up a bit on the matchup.

I'm pretty sure FSU is at home, although I still say grab BC and the points.

You're right. My bad. Had it in my head that it was here (in Boston). Definitely changes things a bit, so I'll have to give it more thought. I haven't liked what I've seen of BC on the road this year (1-1, but they're win wasn't exactly pretty). I checked Covers.com though, and according to them BetCris has BC +5.5 as opposed to +4 or +4.5 like other places I've seen earlier in the week. They also are showing the line as off at most sites, but I haven't heard of any reason for it yet. Don't have time to actually check the sites myself to see if it's all accurate though.

Just checked Mansion and Bowmans, and neither site has the game listed anymore.

Okay, I looked around and it appears that BC's starting QB has a foot injury and may be limited somewhat.

Yeah, that would definitely hurt their chances if he doesn't play. I guess he was in a walking cast yesterday but practiced (noticeably favored the non-injured leg). I think the majority of their offense is the passing game. But if it actually hits 7 I might throw a unit on it.

Easiest play of the week has to be Tulane +32.5 @ Auburn.

Auburn has scored over 30 pts one time this season, and it was against Buffalo in a game where they didn't cover the spread. On top of that, Tulane actually has a pretty decent offense that should be able to get 7-10 pts on the board, and there's no way Auburn can rack up enough to clear this.

And Rutgers -6.5 @ Pitt? Are you kidding?

Auburn scored 40 on Washington State, 34 on Mississippi State, and as you mentioned, the 38 on Buffalo.

And Rutger is +6.5, not -6.5.
