Thoughts on the last game?
Okie State is a fraud. My $0.02. Watched them a lot this season, especially at the end of the season.
Thoughts on the last game?
It's been their history to have a good D. It's not awful but it's been had by high powered offenses which they obviously don't face today.
I played 271 Mississippi* -6 -120 vs Oklahoma State x2 on the open. I would be hesitant to play them @ -9 but I see the # falling to 8 at some books. Oklahoma St’s O was much more reliant on the pass than on the run whereas Old Miss was much better balanced and that was one of my deciding factors. Both offenses have top 10 passing attacks. Ole Miss has the better defense but, much as in Pac 12/Big 10 matchups, the Rebels faced more limited offenses in the SEC than Okie St saw in the Big 12. Both defenses did struggle vs the pass but Ole Miss did well at stuffing the run. Both teams averaged just over 40 points per game. Ole Miss allowed a TD less per game than the Cowboys. Although the offenses were close as measured by total yards, Ole Miss had the much better yards per play stats, 7.0 vs 6.5 ypp. The intangibles and fundamentals, especially on defense and on both sides of the football in the ground game, point to an emotional win for Ole Miss but as the last few wks drew on and we saw the prob and injuries, I'm a little nervous to recommend a play either way. I do like the Over even at the elevated # of 72.Thoughts on the last game?

270 Stanford* -6 -115 vs Iowa x2
269 Iowa/Stanford* Over 51 -130 x4 ....played the side on the open and added this total as the better play imo. Stanford has a balanced offense that averages 225 rushing ypg and 211 passing ypg. Iowa has the better defensive stats but that may be due to Stanford facing more high powered offenses in the Pac 12 than Iowa faced in the Big 10. Both offenses excelled at avoiding turnovers. Still, Iowa’s success mostly due to defensive play as their offensive stats were below average. Their defensive edge is also seen in the turnover stats, the Hawkeyes had 26 takeaways and Stanford just 12 in the 13 games played by each. Iowa benefited from playing a relatively weak conference schedule that avoided Michigan, Ohio State and Penn State and facing Michigan State only when they met for the Big 10 title. Stanford defeated USC twice, UCLA and Notre Dame and also did not face any FCS team (Iowa defeated Illinois State in its opener). Stanford has the more polished QB, Hogan, who came up big in big games repeatedly in his senior season. And many feel RB McCaffrey was most deserving of the Heisman and imo Iowa will not stop him. That duo keys an offense that will be the most dynamic and challenging Iowa will have seen all season.I would have more on this side put something keeps tell me to keep this small Score = 37-24 ;;;;I think
I think Oregon wins easilyHey Blood do you think the frogs can hang with the ducks? When the Boykin story broke, I made a very large, (for me), bet on Oregon plus 1.5 before they took the game down. I middled about half of it already with TCU +7. I'm undecided as to what to do with the rest of it. Your insight would be greatly appreciated.
:cheers::cheers3:
I like that teaser. the thing about having a book that allows U to par with pts bought gives U the option of putting pts where U think U need them the most.Hi Blood, I'm wondering if you have thoughts on teasing Orgeon to -1, and Ark/Kansas game to over 50?
Oregon was the only game that I had no reservations aboutBOL today my friend. I'm not in love with this slate of games today.
Thanks MetGL today Blood

thanks for stopping by Capt, I truly believe that Alabama will own both Championships after Mon nite.Will more than likely play both TT's over, just hoping the gamecocks find a way to win a ring. Wonder if we have repeat of 1992 when jax state and the tide were both on top of the mountain? Cheers and good luck Hound

Frank, its been 3yrs since i have been hit this hard by the 'flu'....started feeling bad 6 days ago and barely any better. i tried to drownd it with bourbon but that hast worked...yet, so i must keep trying. dont feel like going out doing anything so kind stuck in front of this tv and comp...thanks for askingHope you're feeling better, blood.
Sounds like Lynch is going to get lots of carries this Sunday, so Seattle healthier there. I want to see how well he really feels once Lynch gets into that stadium in Minny and the high temp that day is -2. That's -2, and a wind chill of -20.
Hope you feel better my friend, I've been under the weather myself lately and tired of feeling bad.
