Minnesota -4 immediately jumped out at me. This looks like the classic unranked team off a loss favored vs a ranked team - Iowa (#19). Minnesota is a different team in the dome, and I think Iowa is suspect on the road. This line is going to look "too easy" to the novice. It will be interesting to see how the offshore books open this number....

Indiana just became bowl uneligible. I think the motivation sides w/ Penn State to get a big 10 win and the Lions will be able to run on Indiana.

I'm also on NW, and I don't expect a big point total in that one. NW early defensive troubles appear to be solved once Howard returned.

Also on Pitt

balt buc, i agree ... I took Minny off the bat at -3, love this team at home ... all the respect in world for Iowa, they are coming off some emotional games ... Just dont see them winning indoors ... Minny could win by 14+ ... according to my schedule, this is the gophers last game, too... 7-4 looks better than 6-5

BBC,

Why do you feel that the Mich game will be low scoring? I have watched both teams quite a few times this year and really dont see NW being able to slow Mich down but on the other hand I have not been overly impressed by Mich defense.


Baltimore Buc,

I have been riding the trend that your talking about and it has went very well this year. If you go back each week and identify a team that was the big play but failed to cover usually the following week the line for their game is off by 2-4 points. Although Sota would of fallen into this trend last week and failed to cover but I just think they ran into a buzz saw of a defense in Wisky that will shut down any one dimensional team. On the other hand if you watched the Iowa-Purdue game, I owawas lucky to win this game outright and Purdue was far from 100% on the offensive side of the ball.

Tulah,

Love each of your leans and can't wait to see the total of the Oreg game since you have such confidence in this total.

Today's top story ... Orton to return
Senior QB Kyle Orton, who sat out this past weekend’s loss at Iowa, could be back in the starting lineup for next Saturday’s home game versus Ohio State, as long as his hip injury allows him to play; Head coach Joe Tiller and the Boilers’ medical staff will evaluate Orton in the early part of this week


Big XII

Kansas
Junior QB Jason Swanson, who took over as the starter last week when sophomore Adam Barmann went down with an apparent season-ending injury, suffered an injury of his own to his right shoulder and will not be able to play in Saturday’s game versus Texas. According to head coach Mark Mangino, the injury could force Swanson to the sideline for the remainder of the season; Senior walk-on John Nielsen becomes the Jayhawks’ new starter


Oklahoma
Despite suffering a dislocated left shoulder during the fourth quarter of Saturday’s win over Texas A&M, standout freshman TB Adrian Peterson returned to the game after the medical staff put his shoulder back into place; According to head coach Bob Stoops, Peterson is expected to be able to play in this Saturday’s game versus Nebraska

Oklahoma State
Senior star CB Darrent Williams, who made his return this past Saturday after having missed the previous four games with a broken forearm, may have to miss the final two regular season games, as well; After seeing his first full-contact action since the injury occurred, Williams stated that he was unable to use his arm to tackle, and his best chance of returning would probably be in a bowl game; Junior Daniel McLemore will continue to fill-in during Williams’ absence

SEC

Georgia
Freshman TB Danny Ware suffered a sprain to his right ankle and knee during the first quarter of Saturday’s win over Kentucky, and was held to just three carries for the entire game; Ware’s playing status for this weekend’s conference clash at Auburn probably won’t be determined until later in the week, but at this point he’s questionable


South Carolina
Senior starting QB Dondrial Pinkins, who partially tore his rotator cuff during the Oct. 2 game against Alabama, re-injured the shoulder during the first half of this past weekend’s win over Arkansas; Pinkins will undergo an MRI and will await test results to determine his playing status for this Saturday’s contest at Florida

Tennessee
True freshman starting QB Erik Ainge suffered a separated right shoulder on the final play of the first half during the Vols’ loss to Notre Dame this past Saturday; Ainge is expected to be out anywhere from two-to-four weeks, but season-ending surgery could also be a possibility. In the meantime, the starting QB duties are expected to go to junior Rick Clausen

MC, sorry about last week not posting on Monday laugher pick... got in a hurry ....just as well maybe saved some people money...drop 2 in row...not good..

be careful with Vandy..Cutler is injured and if he plays.. won't be 100%...i like Kentucky here with the cutler scenario...they have a bigger front offensive line and may have al l day to throw ...


This week so far I like Northern Illini, and looking at Alabama, Ohio State and Mississippi
I think Auburn will waste Georgia. I've bet it twice today 4' and 5 locally

Revenge factor but a better team here...watched Georgia Saturday against Kentucky 1st quarter and they look like shit...if they falter early it'll be all over in the 1st quarter. Kentucky literally gave up in beginning 2nd quarter. Naturally georgia took the advantage and runup the score.

MC,

NW's been playing solid D of late. They got a bad wrap early from the nationally televised game w/ TCU, but since Howard came back, they've played well. They've only had two games go over all year.

Carr won't rely on Henne to get the win and will try and establish the run. The only way that they'll feature pass is if they get down. UofM has the strong corners to take away NW passing game and I think they'll try to establish the ground game, too. Michigan has the better athletes, but the lines are a toss up.

All that said, I haven't seen a total on the game, and if I was any good at predicting totals, I'd bet them. . . and I don't.

INJURIES OF NOTE - Kansas was already playing without starting QB Adam Barmann but then backup Jason Swanson was inj’d in the 1Q and did not return. That brought in walk-on John Nielsen. KU still had a 342-263 yd edge with CU scoring on a 41 yd fmbl return for a TD and a 48 yd PR for a TD. KU was also int’d in the EZ late in their 30-21 loss. Nielsen hit 21 of 31 for 183 yds...

W Virginia RB Jason Colson had a streak of 3 straight 100 yd games snapped when he inj’d his ankle vs Temple and did not play the 2H. Kay Jay Harris, who began the year as starter, took over with 68 yds rushing. Starting WR, Chris Henry, who was susp’d for the 1H, returned in the 2H and hauled in a 40 yd TD reception and this time after the TD, simply flipped the ball to the ref and was not flagged....

Texas A&M QB Reggie McNeal was inj’d in the 3Q after throwing for 213 yds and 2 TD’s while also running for a score. A&M had a 489-433 yd edge and backup Branyon hit 7 of 12 for 72 yds. The Aggies scored TD’s on a fake punt and a fake FG and had their Hail Mary pass come up short at the end of the game...

Stanford QB Trent Edwards went down with an injured left shoulder on the first play of the 2H. TC Ostrander came in and hit 8 of 15 for 161 and almost guided the upset. Arizona St led 26‑14 but Ostrander guided the team to 17 straight pts and the lead including a 67 yd TD pass with 2:02 left in the game. Andrew Walter would guide ASU 80 yds in 13 plays for a TD with :09 left as ASU escaped with the win. ASU had a 373-98 yd edge in the 1H but only a 3 pt lead as they missed a 41 yd FG, SU got 2 blk’d punts setting up 9 & 18 yd TD’s and ASU fmbl’d at the 2 and missed a 41 yd FG...

Vanderbilt jumped out to a quick 10-0 lead vs Florida but then lost starting QB Jay Cutler at the end of the first drive as he sprained his right ankle. Backup Steven Bright hit 12 of 23 for 118 yds throwing just 3 passes with 1 completion in the 1H...Wisconsin DE Erasmus James returned from his high ankle sprain but played on passing downs only. He did deflect a pass on his first snap and forced a hurry on his 3rd and Wisconsin buried Minny 38-14 with a 515-331 yd edge and most of UM’s yds came late. In the 1Q UW had a 205-31 yd edge...

Purdue QB Kyle Orton, who was once the Heisman Trophy frontrunner, did not play vs Iowa. Backup Brandon Kirsch hit 25 of 43 for 280 yds. PU had a 357-321 yd edge but trailed 17-0 early thanks to a muffed punt and a TO which set up Iowa for scores...

Tennessee was already without its 2nd string QB Schaeffer due to injury for the rest of the season. Erik Ainge then separated his right shoulder on the final play of the 1H when the Vols surprisingly went to the shotgun in their own terr in the final seconds. Rick Clausen, the younger brother of Casey, was being sk’d and threw an int which was ret’d for a TD. At the time of Ainge’s injury, UT only had a 10-9 FD edge and ND led most of the 1H with a 7-3 lead before allowing a 56 yd TD pass on a screen with 2:37 left in the half. The Irish went conservative on offense in the 2H not wanting to make a mistake and got the outright win...

Georgia Tech RB PJ Daniels missed the NCSt game with injury and his backup, Chris Woods, went out with a hamstring injury in the 1Q. Rashaun Grant (PS#15) rushed for 122 yds on 20 carries. NCSt missed 3 FG’s including one from 52 yds out with 3:00 left which would have tied it and had a 57 yd int return for a TD wiped out by a holding penalty. The Yellow Jackets won 24-14 thanks to a 49 yd int return for a TD with 1:22 left and were outgained 306-269.

FRONTDOOR AND BACKDOOR COVERS - Houston did not get ahead of the spread vs E Carolina until they got a 98 yd drive for a TD with 9:32 left to lead 34-17. EC was SOD at their own 46 and int’d at their own 29 but UH was SOD at the EC 30. EC got a 58 yd TD pass with 2:58 left for the backdoor cover...Texas Tech did not get ahead of the spread vs Baylor until a TD with 4:45 left capped a 92 yd drive, 42-10. BU then went 79 yds in 9 plays for a TD with 1:22 left for the backdoor cover...

For the 2nd straight week Troy got a fortunate cover. They had just a 14-9 FD edge vs Florida Atlantic. They got a 42 yd Hail Mary TD pass on 4th & 10 with :38 left in the 1H. They still were not ahead of the spread until they got a 64 yd PR for a TD with 9:55 left. FAU then had an int at the Troy 41 and on their final drive had a 1st & goal at the Troy 8 but was int’d at the 2 with :46 left and Troy held on for the cover...

Utah jumped out to a 56-10 lead after 3Q’s against Colorado St but rested starting QB Alex Smith for most of the 2H. Backup Johnson threw just 3 passes. CSU actually rallied for 3 straight TD’s in the 4Q to apparently get the backdoor cover with 7:15 left on a 48 yd TD run by Hanie. Utah, however, got a 9 yd TD pass with 5:07 left for the frontdoor cover.


SAY WHAT? - UNLV lost to Wyoming this past week but there was some very questionable ref calls. Amazingly in the game, UNLV was flagged TWENTY-TWO times for 167 yds while Wyoming was flagged just 4 times. It seemed most of UNLV’s penalties came at inopportune times, mostly wiping out big gains or keeping WY drives alive with 3rd down flags. Hmmm. They say holding can be called on every play and on one play, WY’s OL ripped the jersey off the shoulder pad of the DL 3 feet from the QB but it was not called. Hmmm. Meanwhile, as mentioned, many crucial holding calls were called against UNLV wiping out big gains. Turnovers also hurt the Rebels as at the end of regulation UNLV had a 375-248 yd edge but lost the game in 3 OT’s.
