I gave out my 2-team parlay: Georgia Tech and Ohio. If I was to add a third it would be Fresno State.

Yes. I agree Huskers. With Dobbs out the team is totally different. I would advise staying away from the game if you haven’t bet it yet or even betting the opposite way. I wouldn’t have made this play w/o Dobbs in the lineup.

A little heads up for ya’ll on the Navy game. Starting QB Ricky Dobbs is out.

Kris Proctor will start this weekend in his first NCAA start. He played the last two quarters in the blowout against Rice where he scored 3 touchdowns and rushed for 85 yards. The only issue is that was rice, a 0-5 team, and this is Wake, a 4-3 BCS stud. I know that they got it handed to them last week by Clemson, but I feel these guys are going to be hungry tomorrow and licking there lips at a new Sophomore QB. I am really unsure about this pick.

No play for tonight’s game between Rutgers and Army. I mean if you put a gun to my head and made me pick I would go with Army and take the points. Army struggles to score, but has a solid D so if they can score it will be close. However, if they can’t stuff it in the endzone it is going to a long night for them.

Please make sure you check back often as I release games throughout the day. Last night I hit with Florida State as an outright dog winner! Even though honestly I thought that game was over at half. FSU has major coaching problems and their defense is one of the worst in all of college football. Keep that defense in mind though against talented offensive teams. FSU should be getting some more respect after last night’s win, but that will allow for smaller spreads when in actuality FSU should be a big dog. I am already looking at their schedule down the road in two weeks at Clemson. That game has a Clemson blowout written all over it!! Mark it down. If the line comes out right we will be all over Clemson!

I am closely analyzing the Rutgers/Army game and will release any play by 5:00pm Eastern.

Good Luck.

Oh Im not debating you lol, I believe GT will cover. I was just throwing out why the spread might be opening at -5. Virginia is playing well right now also and that sticky 3-3-4 defense is getting on track. They are also very strong in the month of October and has covered over the years consistently vs GT at home. That is all im saying.

I like GT -5 though regardless.

While past stats may be a factor I examine in my analysis of game I rely much more heavily on the “what have you done for me lately” factor. GT is playing great football right now. There is some concern for a let down after their huge win last weekend, but Virginia does not have the offense to compete in this situation. They are clearly outmatched.

I may be releasing an OVER/UNDER play for tonight’s game a little later this morning.

Well 711, I’m going to have to borrow a quote from Mike Ditka.

“I don’t believe in living in the past. I think the past is for cowards. If you live in the past, you die in the past.”
