Hello to all.....

After spending my entire posting career at another site, almost 14,000 posts, I have decided to join this community. I just need a break from posting where I always did, years of success, moments of failures, but what comes with that both positive and negative gets old and pressure cooked. I've just felt for awhile that something wasn't right and it was time to get away from the regular crowd board wise. Time to start fresh with a new crowd; I just want to post plays and hopefully I can contribute positively to this board.

Posting two plays early. I'm with a local so my lines sometimes are set differently during the week. Michigan for example for me has shot up to 22 points; public has to be pounding it.

My feeling on this game is if you can get 21 or better, play it now. Smart money will end up on Colorado.

If the rule here is to post what anyone can get then consider my Plays as Colorado +21. But what I've played in reality are

Colorado +22 for 2 Units

7T
Colorado +29
TCU -17 for 3 Units

Sellout crowd Thursday Night, and as well as Houston played against Oklahoma, one would say that the Bearcats are playing Houston at the right time, early, conference opener, Ward and Cantalon coming off of injuries, and at Home with 2 good Running backs and huge OL and a promising Sophomore QB in Hayden Moore. Last year's game was 33-30 and I expect another tight ball game. Houston not quite used to the attention they are receiving as a Top 10 team, and to me, all of the variables are worth playing 8 Points.

UC Bearcats +8 for 3 Units

Louisville +1.5 for 3 Units

So many angles that heavily sway towards both teams, especially FSU's dominance in this series. I just think back to 2 years ago when Louisville at Home blew a 21-0 lead, and that is just something you cannot forget. That is a Loss in a 32-4 Home Record. The deciding factor for me was thinking long and hard about how Ole Miss fired on all cylinders for 2 quarters being very one dimensional on Offense, something Louisville is not. Ole Miss was also very young in the defensive backfield, Louisville is not.

It will shock me is Francois can thrive this early in such a hostile road atmosphere......I think his knees are gonna buckle.

A few cents on Michigan. Way to early to analyze all stats, but after playing UCF and Hawaii, they show perfect play in the Redzone, but 40's numbers in both Rushing and Passing, meaning one or the other could be an illusion. Ranking 90th in Rushing Defense at this stage is definitely alarming for Michigan facing a team like Colorado that is very balanced thus far. Punting, Kickoffs and Special Teams overall seem bottom of the barrel for Michigan as well other than Punt Returns. Don't get me wrong Michigan is good but there are some early signs that advise that 22 points in my case is good value.

Welcome RE! Looking forward to your posts, been watching you across the street for years. Difference between this forum and that forum is Jack doesn't put up with posters coming into other peoples threads and talking shit as where the other forum is just full of assholes and they don't monitor it as well over there. I posted over there for about a week and just couldn't do it anymore, too many assholes so I don't even go there anymore. Most everyone on this forum are pretty good people, there are a few that I don't care for but I just stay out of their threads. Good luck this season!:toast:

Glad to see you here Red!!! I don't ever post because I don't have much value to offer. I have been following you over at the other place and you definitely help a guy like me that has no time to research anymore have some fun and win some cash.
