I'm not sure when they're going up, but I want to be ready when they do. Here are my working numbers. This early in the year, some of them are going to we wildly out of line. Tell me which ones they are, so I can avoid a mistake.....
Not a totals guy so I'm only going to pipe in on the game I know. UConn/Temple looks a lot better at 42 than 47. At 47 I will almost definitely be on the under.
Limited games that I know about, but my MWC lines would be:
AFA/WYO 42 (should be brutally ugly)
UTAH/UNLV 53 (hardest one to put a # on for me)
BYU/WAS 64 (books should set this high as I can't see anybody wanting to hit the under)
NMU/A&M 42 (week 1 performances keep this pretty low, Portierre should play)
SDSU/ND 40 (does SDSU score to help this total)
No problem Matador. Just remember you're fading SDSU more than you're playing ND.
Looking over this A&M/NMU game a little bit more and it's becoming a bit more clear that both defenses played adequate/good while neither offense did a thing. Total could easily be in the high 30's. Of course I could never play a college total in the 30's but if a 39 pops up I won't be shocked.
For what its worth, I think MW is close on the Cincy/OK line. Cincy should struggle to get 20 here, but I don't see OK lighting up the scoreboard either.
Thank you for the numbers. Hopefully we will have something to talk about early tomorrow afternoon.
and yes .. i think it is too far in advance as a general rule ... but nothing wrong with taking a position and having much the best of it if cats and dogs are falling out of the sky saturday.
