BOl today blood would love the Nevada/ColoSt thoughts
Hey Blood, I'm wondering about that Baylor total and why you like the under. Best of luck today pardner.
:cheers3:
Thanks Zane....how much snow do U have??
reading between the lines I think the Bears have more probs than just the significant injuries They will not see the return of QB Stidham here (out last 2.5 games) and will also be playing without RB Linwood (1,329 rush yards) and All-American WR Coleman (1,363 receiving yards and 20 TD’s). While the extra bowl practice will help 4string qb Johnson I dont think it will be enough to win this game against a very good NC tm that will be ready to play.
Baylor’s offensive stats for the season are phenomenal but can its backup players perform to a similar level against a UNC defense that has enjoyed a big resurgence under DC Gene Chizik? I dont think so ....even though most are against me on both of my plays I call for a 35-28 type of game.

Great write up thanks BloodThanks and I tried to break this game down and saw some things that changed my mind as I had original leans on ColSt. The Rams have the edge on offense, while NV has a the edge on defense, but a much larger edge on spec tms. CSU enters this game having won 5 of 6 incl 4 straight as they relied heavily on their rushing attack, finishing with 220+ yds the last 4 gms. NV enters having lost B2B gms, but both were against bowl teams including the eventual MW champ. Breaking the individual matchups down, I think Nev has a slight overall adv except maybe ColSt has the better RB's vrs Nev LB's and CU has the better QB/WR combo over Nev DB's....every other matchup I think goes to Nev.
There may be a little more pressure on Nevada to avoid a losing season. The key matchup is both teams avg 4.8 y/c and allow 4.8 & 4.9 ypc. If two teams are each gaining roughly 5 yds per rush both offense will have success so that leaves us with Nev having the better D IMO and getting better pts Maybe the greatest difference in this game is found in turnover differential in which Nevada is +9 and CSU-11.
I dont think this is a blowout either way and if I have capped this correctly, taking the pts is the way to go for a small to smallish medium play

Hey blood, you like any team totals today? GL!
worst call I've seen in 2015...it was a form tackle. Even under the rule, it was not targeting...it was side to side helmet contact, not leading with the crown. horriblei dont give a shit what the fucking pansie so called football fans say, targeting is the worse damn rule in football
it has ruined football in they way it should be played
Thanks Zane....how much snow do U have??
We've got about a foot on open ground, more in the trees. It's been a pretty chilly stretch, we got down to -13 the other night, and hasn't been above 25 in a about a week.
It cuts down on the flies and mosquitoes.
How come all the love for Baylor for all of a sudden? The line's dropped 2.5 pts since this morning.
Thanks Cash, Hope things have slowed down from Christmas and U will have a chance to kick back and watch some FBKeep up the solid work my friend! May the New Year bring you good health & winners.
UNC just seemed overwhelmed and maybe a little uncertain on defense. Not prepared for Baylors with all the changes. Maybe not conditioned either for this pace. They knew they were in trouble early and had the look as if they quit.
