Man that way to many points imo. I believe pitt d can really slow down the smu run game. For my money I think Holstein is the better passer and Pitt front will get way more pressure imo. I’m not even sure I want the points, I been a Pitt buyer from early on and they do nothing but impress me more every week. The way they took cuse offense apart was impressive.

I been waiting to get pit as dogs! Lol. At least ya’ll win if I’m dead wrong but I been on pitt ti be undefeated going into the Clemson game for some time. I’ve seen way more of Pitt than smu so maybe I’m taking them to lightly but I just don’t see so impressive bout them? Pitt run d is good enough to slow that aspect down, Smu could slow Pitt run game also but give me Holstein with more time in pocket.

Another thing their qb been turning the ball over a bit lately, we saw what Pitt did to a turnover prone McCord last week. This line nuts imo, I think Pitt the better team.

I was shocked it that high, maybe I’m an idiot and Smu is better than them, they sure seem to think so. Sometimes I get stuck on a team like Pitt but it not like I been wrong w them. The smu kid being loose with the ball lately fumbling and throwing some ints does not bode well against pitt aggressive d. I’m always pretty confident narduzzi d’s can slow down if not shut down run games and get pressure, they def have a tendency to get burnt from time to time being so aggressive but when he has a legit qb and offensive system that isn’t the 3 yards and cloud of dust he been known to go about offensive with, they can overcome the occasional big play cause this offense is potent in its own right. Obviously I’ve thought highly of Pitt most the year but I been more impressed by them every week cause they been finding different ways to win games, I know they can throw it around the yard if they have to get in a shootout, I think Reid can score from anywhere on the field if he gets a crease, then last few weeks the defense has flat out won games for them. Granted McCord for cuse has had turnover issues all year but cuse offense has also been lighting teams up and Pitt wasn’t having it! The found a way to hold on against a cal team who seems to be pretty dang tough. Smu really hasn’t impressed me, not entirely their fault but they havnt faced many teams that will stress them the way pitt will on both sides the ball!! They beat perpetually overrated ville by a td in a game ville had damn near 500 yards of offense!! Barely beat duke and they let dukes terrible inaccurate qb throw for 295!! What is it everyone likes so much bout smu? Pitt is gonna move the ball over over them, I don’t even think that should be debatable. Then Pitt d will easily be the toughest they have faced imo, maybe Duke d close but we see all the turnovers they forced out of Jennings! Not only bad throws but when he runs he carries the ball like a loaf of bread! Better believe Narduzzi has his defenders ripping at the ball all this week at practice! More times than not I like being kinda alone but I respect all you guys enough to hear your thoughts out here. Ya really have to wow me for me to even think bout backing off pitt but im certainly open to listen to what ya think this game looks like? 10 years ago I’d be scared this line was a tell but since I’ve stopped giving the line any respect I think it has helped my capping, just like last week I woulda been scared off byu in years past but turned out that line was as dumb I thought it was!! This one feels just as ignorant to me cause on a neutral id lay 3 with pitt!! Im not dismissing the idea im off my rocker that just how I feel here.

That line to 4! Another one I don’t get at all! The only thing I hate bout cuse is it a given McCord gonna make 2-4 throws a game that you would think he color blind or doesn’t understand the concept of the game! lol. That said before running into Pitt I’ve been impressed with cuse finally being able to develop a rushing attack to go with what a potent passing game minus the turnovers! Cuse d is far from great but I thought they did a pretty good job on Pitt o, really tough to know how real that was seeing how Pitt got 3 defensive tds!?!?? But I do think cuse good enough to limit drones passing, I worry vtech can run on cuse, their scheme just vulnerable to good rush attacks. If McCord plays clean cuse wins by 2 scores, the likelihood he plays clean isn’t very good tho, think it a down to the wire game so let them keep pushing that number up, I’d love +4.5!

don’t love messing w these Tuesday games. I could be way off but I played Texas st rb
Mahdi ov 98.5 and a td
High total, fav, if game script plays right even if he doesn’t hit this early he should be running the clock out late. Last year he shredded Louisiana for well over 120! Rajon Cajuns allowing 5ypc this year so unless they come storming out and take a big lead just don’t think they stopping this kid. I did consider a few Cajuns wr props but decided not to get crazy today, I saved that for my WS bets! Lol
