Default CFB 10/8

YTD 13-8-0(+5.96)

Georgia +3(-115) @ Tennessee
Neither of these teams has been impressive so far this year. I'd say they're pretty evenly matched, with Georgia having a slight advantage. Tennessee's defense is awesome, but their offense has not looked in sync at all, aside from the 2nd half against an overrated LSU. Their quarterback situation hasn't gotten any better, and Georgia has the talent up front to pressure Ainge or Clausen all day. Georgia should be much more rested, as Tennessee's played 2 games since Georgia's last one.

Nebraska +4(-105) vs. Texas Tech
Tech's offense just got held to a modest 30 points at home against a pretty good Kansas defense, but one that is not nearly as good as Nebraska's. Nebraska will be looking to shut Tech down after being embarrassed in a 70-10 rout last year. Nebraska's offense has not been great so far, but this is exactly the kind of game where it should come to life. Tech's defense won't be able to win a close game for them, especially on the road in Lincoln.

Ohio St. -3(-112) @ Penn St.
Penn State is very overrated after shutting down a one-dimensional team in Minnesota last week. It was a very impressive win, but Minnesota's gameplan played right into PSU's hand. Ohio State's much more balanced on offense, and their defense won't let Penn State do half the damage they did to the Gophers. Penn State's good, but I don't think they can hang with a team this good, especially with Ohio State having 2 weeks to prepare.

And the Big XII Lock of the Week...

Missouri -4.5(+101) @ Oklahoma St.
Oklahoma State is easily the worst team in the Big XII this year. They're 110th in the nation in scoring, with their best performance being an astounding 23 points against Florida Atlantic. They just got blown out at home by Colorado, whose offense is nowhere near as good as Mizzou's. The Tigers don't have a great defense at all, but should shut down OSU's offense easily, as well as light up the scoreboard on the other end.

One last play:

Texas A&M +3.5 @ Colorado
Two bad performances in a row for the Ags have everyone losing faith, but their first two games are much more indicative of their talent. Now, their back is to the wall and they will be out to prove something today. +3.5(-110) can still be had at Sportsbook.com.

Tough loss on Ohio State...I'd say Penn State prolly had about a 20-point homefield advantage...I wish I had anticipated how electric the atmosphere would be...2nd largest crowd at PSU ever.

On the bright side, we can win it back when the Nittany Lions go to Michigan next week. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Yeah, that was one of the loudest crowds I've ever heard, especially the students' section. And having Troy Smith in may have cost the Bucks another 20 points. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
