Man, you don't know(well maybe you do) how glad I am that the season is finally here. That being said I normally take a few weeks to get a feel for the teams. One small play on Thursday and one coattail.
Temple +6 (1*)
These two teams combined last year for a big 1 win. Both teams are looking for that rare W to start the season and have new systems on both sides of the ball. Buffalo is returning 12 starters to temples 6, but Buf has two back 2 back conference games up next. Also, I don't believe Buffalo has ever been a favorite in 1A ball. take all this into play and I can't see them being almost a TD favorite. taking the points here for a small play.
Under 50' UTEP/SD ST. (1*)
Coat tailing AR on this trend. See his writeup.
Good Luck on a Great Season!!!
