I hate Penn State. I hate them lots. But that number seems high.

 

Ohio State has covered once this year, in the season-opener at Virginia Tech.

Sports Betting News and Vegas Odds

 

The game that has my attention the most this week is Florida at LSU. Will be really interesting to see Fournette against that defense and see if the Gators are a legit top-1o team. Something is telling me to take the Gators and the points. LSU has looked pedestrian at times, despite Fournette, against far worse teams.

Also, looking forward to see Georgia host Mizzou after the Bulldogs took two weeks off. Should be well rested.

 

OSU wins by double digits but doesn't cover.

USC is either galvanized by the Sark fiasco and pulls a stunner -- or tanks completely.

 

Not a gambler, but the Boston College point spread seems low. Eagles couldn't score against WAKE FOREST, and Clemson is rolling on all cylinders.

Iowa's had a great run to start the season, but I'm afraid it ends this weekend in Evanston. Northwestern should be embarrassed after getting torched in Ann Arbor, and they need to bounce back against the Hawkeyes.

And yes, I still think Sparty tops UM. Michigan's defense is solid, but it hasn't faced a good QB since the Utah game.

 

UCF now has an interim interim athletic director.

UCF coach George O'Leary steps down from interim AD role

 

I take back what I said about the Florida/LSU game:

Florida QB Will Grier Suspended For NCAA Violation

 

Oops...

Florida starting QB Will Grier suspended for at least 2015 due to PEDs, per reports

 

Get out my Kool-Aid, Layman!

 

Hopefully the next opposing lineman to get close to Bert gets his money's worth.
