ok here are the games i am leaning:

WVU -6.....or no play
OU-21....optomistic maybe
UF-14....still have to have respedt for the SEC games
TCU-14...traditionally a blowout
Rutgers-10....off a bye and MD off a horrid loss
ECU +/- no matter what
Hawaii-28...if brennan is back warriors cobvered games by 24ppg v Idaho
Clemson-3.....too much running power for GT IMO
Purdue-14...probably be more but with that shuitty defense it scares me
Iowa-7....HC game off a loss and returning home
KSU+17....too high maybe but 2 weeks to prepare I woudl bite here
Neb-17....maybe too low but off a loss and avg victory of 42-12 i'd play
tOSU-21....possibly could hold under DD 38-10 type game
Kent St....only as an underdog I play it
LSU 1h -17....not enough i'd go up to -21
UGA-10...maybe optomositc but ole piss can cover as home DD dogs
Nevada.....anything situational off a bye and inlv off a huge shutout win
Oregon....anything
Oregon St+ anything
Stanford+14.....atleast i need this traditionally this game is closer than teh experts think
Syracuse-3... way too lwo but I'd love this number
TAMU-14....maybe 3 points too low but this woudl be great as TAMU is 9-1 off a loss ATS
Tulsa-14....off a loss and great offense and solid defense
Wisky-3....would love this line who knows though prolly -6/-7
ASU/Standford OVER 62
Ball St/Buff over 65
 
Would like WV under a TD..anything over either USF or no play
Like OU anything under 21
Like Florida anything under 17
Like Rutgers under 10
Have faded ND every week so far, but like Troy said, that Purdue D just shitty
Like UGA around 7
Like Clemson, with how good Harper is playing, look out ACC
Like my Kansas State team getting 14 or more. Think my defense can pressure Colt and give Texas offense some problems and Texas secondary not impressing me all that much
Like Cal-Oregon over ..this may be a ridiculously high line though
Like tOSU under 21 over Minny
Arizona St / Stanford over
 
This are preliminary....I haven't had the opportunity to look at all box scores and are more my power rating oriented then line predictions..so more where I value the line...and they will change.

WVU, i would play up ot -7

Miami(FL), up to -21, they got a huge vote of confidence last week with shutting down the superb TAMU offense. Plus, duke has been competitive for two straight weeks, now i have seen it all.

Miami (OH)-Syracuse will come out flat and the coaching staff will trying everything to get this bunch motivated but it won't work. Looking for plus points here.

Alabama- Looking for -3 or better

PSU, Looking for -7 or better, can't believe i'm laying points again with PSU on the road against a solid Big 10 foe.

LSU, This one is more of a crabshoot, and depends on injuries and Les Miles weekly press conference. If he makes it apparent that he is going down to Tulane and will be a fun game everyone will get a shot to play then i will stay away. If he is very hungry and wants a blowout with a shutout then i will play LSU up to -35.

Oklahoma- Stoops knows they need to score bunches of points to be considered for national title game. Will play Oklahoma up to -21.

TAMU- Will lay up to -20, as i think this offense will explode in this game. I will be eyeing the over as well.

UVA- Looking for less then -7. I watched pitt play last night, and as long as they stay with K. Smith at QB, pitt proves to be a solid bet against team, b/c what other teams are doing are putting 8 or sometimes even 9 in the box and saying your not going to beat us running the ball, your gonna have to beat us by throwing and the QB is incapable of throwing.

Tulsa- I think they bounce back big here and they are playing UAB at home, i expect around 49 points from Tulsa's offense this weekend. Last friday was the first time i had a chance to watch their offense work and many times it fizzled but Ok is very good, so i can only imagine what they will do against UAB. Will lay up to -24

tOSU: Will lay up to -17. Minny is getting better and better every week. I don't think this game will even be close, but having such a blowout win last week by a weak (by OSU standards) offense worries me a bit.

Purdue: ND is laughable, their alumni have to be embarrassed. Will lay up to -20.

some thoughts on a few games

West Virginia @ South Florida
Predicted Spread: USF +5.5
This will be a very hard game to figure. Both teams look very much for real and both look to be very good. In this situation, I would always look at a home dog, but WVU looks scary.

California @ Oregon
Predicted Spread: Oregon -4.5
Very very even teams here, there is no way I could imagine taking Cal at anything less than 4.5. Cal has no advantages in this game and it is played at a Gameday rowdy autzen. This is a budding rivary and a big revenge game for the Ducks. Anything less than laying 4.5 is terrific value.

Alabama @ Florida State (Jax)
Predicted Spread: Alabama -4
Florida State is a pretty shitty team. Alabama is good. If they lay a small number, Tide should be golden.

Mississippi State @ South Carolina
Predicted Spread: USC -14
I do not have much of an opinion on the side here, but will be all over the under.

some thoughts on a few games

West Virginia @ South Florida
Predicted Spread: USF +5.5
This will be a very hard game to figure. Both teams look very much for real and both look to be very good. In this situation, I would always look at a home dog, but WVU looks scary.

California @ Oregon
Predicted Spread: Oregon -4.5
Very very even teams here, there is no way I could imagine taking Cal at anything less than 4.5. Cal has no advantages in this game and it is played at a Gameday rowdy autzen. This is a budding rivary and a big revenge game for the Ducks. Anything less than laying 4.5 is terrific value.

Alabama @ Florida State (Jax)
Predicted Spread: Alabama -4
Florida State is a pretty shitty team. Alabama is good. If they lay a small number, Tide should be golden.

Mississippi State @ South Carolina
Predicted Spread: USC -14

Nice thoughts. I am leaning to Oregon pretty heavy myself. They have enough fire power and what should be a better defense than Cal. I would love -3 here but prob end up -4ish. I like Bama as well in a bounce back game but they have been on an emotional roller coaster. Last second win vs. Arky followed by forcing OT vs. UGA and losing. Now they have to go on the road to face FSU at a neutral site but I still lean Bama very much. I think I will be a spectator in the WVU game. What you are looking at for the under because that is what I am interested in. Gamecocks have a few injuries on defense to take care of though.

Couldn't this be looked at the opposite way? Fade the teams that are perfect ATS because they'll be getting more and more credit from bookmakers and bettors? And just the opposite for the teams doing crap against the spread.



Also . you guys all believe Oregon gives points against Cal? I was thinking somewhere between a pick'em with a slight advantage to Cal from the books.. maybe Oregon +2.5 or so...

I think it's a pretty even game, so whoever gets points is probably the better play... i do just slightly prefer cal over the ducks though, if you put a gun to my head.
 
I do not believe Oregon will be a home dog to Cal.

If you want to talk offenses, Cal and Oregon are both very explosive. Both average over 40+ a game. The difference for me is defense which Cal plays none of and Oregon plays some of. Other things you should note in this game that are important. The home team has won the last 4 games. They have traded wins with each other since 2003, Cal won the game last yr in rather dominating fashion. Forsett rushed for 165 and it was 28-3 in the 2nd quarter. Oregon had 4 turnovers in that game, 3 of which were INT's by Dixon

No, you ride the good ATS teams and you fade the bad ATS teams. It's a proven way to make money if you can identify those teams.

However, you're also right. The books aren't dumb and they will keep giving inflated numbers to these teams until eventually they will lose (or win), but in the long run, these teams will win/lose ATS despite a few stumbles against impossible lines.
