College Football First Week
I am a terrible at sports betting. That said, I'm still going to bet some games the first week. Any lines jump out to you guys? At first glance, I'm looking at taking:
Kentucky +22 Oregon -9.5 Utah -8 Texas A&M 0 Florida -22 Thoughts? |

Re: College Football First Week
It would help if you posted the other team they are playing against. People (by people I mean me) are way to lazy to look up who those teams play and then to post to a response.

Re: College Football First Week
You're right, that was a pretty lazy way for me to post. Let's try this again:
Kentucky(home) +22 Louisville Hey, Kentucky may suck, but they are in the SEC and getting 22 points at home. Oregon -9.5 Houston(home) Houston is terrible Utah -8 Arizona(home) I don't know where Arizona is gonna upgrade their offense and this looks like at least a two score win for Utah Texas A&M 0 Clemson(home) A&M is the better team, I think enough to overcome Clemson's HFA. Florida(home) -22 Wyoming Florida is loaded. Swamp. New coach. Statement. Anyways, I realize that if I don't do a ton of research and really understand the game (which I don't) I can't make +EV picks. I'm just doing this to juice up the weekend. I'd appreciate if someone would slap me if any of these picks look overly stupid. |

Want a lock?
Penn State -23.5 over South Florida. Bet on PSU here and laugh to the bank. |

I like your florida pick and thats a team i am going to keep a close eye on. urban meyer is is a spurrior type coach who knows what the spread is and knows he needs to cover to get BCS votes. College football is really hard to handicapp in the beginning of the season...wait until week 4 to figure out who the pretenders vs and contenders are. |

I think Florida is pretty solid, and KY is pretty good too. Avoid road favorites and you won't hurt yourself in the long run. I don't like TAMU at all, Oregon is a bit better. I like Zona at home, they may win outright.

South Carolina -19.5 vs. Central Florida
It's Steve Spurrier's first game back in college. It's on national television. He will run that scoreboard as high as it will go. UCF was horrible last year and wont be much better this year. |

Love Florida -22, hate aTm against Clemson. My Big XII lock of the week is Baylor -4.5 at SMU.

Re: College Football First Week
Holy crap... where are these lines?? I will put 1/3rd of my poker bankroll on the florida -22
That game is going to be closer to 65-7 than it will be 28-7 Also, I would stay away from the Utah game, they lost much, and we (Arizona) are improved in all aspects of the game, I dont think its clear enough to bet on |
