BYU -3.5(2 units):GT is starting a true freshman QB and was hit by the injury bug last week as thier starting center, Hugh Reilly, is sidelined. Gailey may say that he is not concerned, but you never want to lose your starting center as he is responsible for any adjustments in the blocking schemes on the line. In addition to injuries, the Yellow Jackets lost 10 players to academic suspensions. The Cougars are going to run a 3-3-5 defense in hopes of being more aggressive and disrupting the GT offense.
NIU +8.5(2 units):It has been a long 5yrs for Huskies program to turn corner and start winning, but the administration was patient with Novak and he has the team believing they can win rather than expecting to lose. The Huskies are strong up front on both sides of the ball and return Micheal Turner at RB. Turner came just .96 ypg from being the leading rusher in the nation last year. Maryland is a formidable opponent, but I don't think the MAC gets the respect it deserves by alot of people. Maryland's QB McBrien is listed as questionable with a groin injury. If that's not healed all the way and he still plays, it is going to make it rough. I like the fact NIU knows it is a legitimate contender for the MAC West title. I look for them to a have a great game in front of the home crowd.
LaTech +28(2 units):Miami is, well, Miami. The Hurricanes are starting Brock Berlin. I watched Berlin at Florida and he has an average, if not, below average arm. He may have gotten smarter, but from what I have seen of him he doesn't make the best decisions either. Other than that, there is not alot of negatives you can say about Miami. But I really think the Bulldogs have a shot at keeping this game under the number. Luke McCown is a good QB and if the WRs can catch the ball instead of hitting it in the air for an interception, the Bulldogs should be able to hang in the game. La Tech is 41-21-3 all time at Independence Stadium, so they like the surroundings. Since '95 the Bulldogs are 6-2 as home dogs. I know Miami has made more than a few dog players cry when handing the money over to Guido, but I'm going to have go with my gut.
