I have half a dozen I'll be playing this week, but prolly won't play till Sat because I'm a cheapskate and that's when the joose goes down.
Xcept last week when 5Dimes kept the Villanova-JMU game at -120.
I suspect they will do the same thing this week with that Appy-Wofford game. Anyway, that one is a bit too tough for me except my gut tells me to stick with the champs.
I just played Appy -1 @ -108 with 5Dimes. Nice to see 5D give this game major league status.
Brown +3 @ Penn. - The winner of this game takes the lead in the Ivy League. I have to like Penn because we get a shot at them in two weeks whereas we already lost to Brown by 2. BUT, I think Brown has more offensive weapons and I like their chances here. I'll take Brown and 3.
UMass -12 1/2 @ URI - These were the points when I last looked and I might have to bet this sooner rather than wait for joose reduction. UMass clearly the better team and gives < 2 TDs. They have the added incentive because they are on the cusp of playoff eligibilty. And they won't take URI lightly because in extremely bad weather URI upset them 12-6 a year ago, costing the Redmen a home advantage in the playoffs. Bit of revenge going here also, although I don't take a lot of stock in that.
Princeton -1 1/2 @ Cornell - We beat Cornell 38-17 and struggled like hell to beat Princeton last week 24-20. So Princeton wins by 17, obviously. This one NOT for the faint of heart.
Fordham - 12 1/2 v Marist - Because I say so, just Don't ask any questions
Columbia +10 1/2 @ Yale. - Doormat Columbia has played everyone tough this year and come off a much needed win. Something wrong with Yale this year, which mystifies me. They flat out can't score so unless the Lions hand them some points, I see this as a huge impost for the Eli.
Like totals ?? Try Under 25 in this one.
Stony Brook +7 v Gardner-Webb. This game has toss-up written all over it. Although Keepers rates GW 7+ over SB , Sagarin makes SB a 4 pt Fav.
I will gladly take the 7 points here. Something tells me that GW won't like a visit to chilly Long Island.
Kyle- If you're watching, in your thread you asked for me best fbs bet of the week. Nobody wants my bets fbs bet ( Maybe ND ) but if you meant FCS , I hate to distinguish because my long experience tells me I could go 7-1 with the losing 1 being my " BB " .
Having said that, I would say you try UMass against Rhody. And if the points have moved beyond 13 1/2, try Stony Brook. GL
