Early line is Pickem moving to Nebraska -1. Wait until the line moves to Nebraska -2 or -3 and then grab Iowa St and Seneca Wallace the underdog POTW. This is a great spot for Seneca to show everyone Iowa St is the real deal and cement his first round draft pick $$$$.


From ESPN:
Bring on Nebraska
He Said It
"The triggerman is the difference. They can talk about all those folks they want to talk about in the country, but this guy right here is a football player. He's a great quarterback, he can make it happen and if things go bad, he has speed. They all can't do that."
-- Troy State coach Larry Blakeney on QB Seneca Wallace

Troy State thought maybe it could catch Iowa State looking ahead to Nebraska. The Trojans quickly learned they had the Cyclones' full attention, and Iowa State (No. 24 ESPN/USA Today, No. 21 AP) rolled past the Trojans 42-12 on Sept. 21. Playing as a ranked team for the first time in 21 years, the Cyclones dominated a team that had given Nebraska trouble three weeks ago. "It's hard to compare them," said Troy State coach Larry Blakeney, whose team outgained Nebraska in a 31-16 loss. "They're different offensively totally. I think that gives Iowa State a chance to beat Nebraska." The Cornhuskers visit Iowa State on Sept. 28.

Seneca Wallace will be lucky to get drafted in the 4th round, let alone in the 1st round. He is about the size of a jockey. We all know, although it is a mistake sometimes, the NFL drafts for size. If Wallace was 6-3 then he would be a top 10 pick. Problem is, he is listed at 5-8, which means he is more like 5-7. Everyone says "Doug Flutie" Ok, that's one. And here's a trivia question for you on Doug Flutie-How many playoff games has he won in the NFL?

Iowa St. has lost 29 straight games to ranked teams. Seneca is the real deal and can lead Iowa State to a victory...but....This is an awkard situation for the Cyclones, favored against a ranked team. Also Nebraska had last week off to perpare for Iowa State, if Neb. can figure out how to stop Seneca the Cyclones are in trouble.

Good luck to all!!!
