Anyone playing any of these large this year? Texas AM Under 7 looks juicy. 3 "given" wins SMU (no pushover but should be a W) SCState SamHoustonState 2 "toss ups" @olemiss @latech and the rest appear to be difficult wins where they'll need things to go their way to have a chance UF Arky LSU @AU @Bama @MSU Mizzou Even if they win the 1st 5 listed, I don't see them winning more than 2 of the meat of the SEC schedule. Sumlin probably not the best coach for the SEC IMO Also looking at Florida Over 8 +105 EMAW over 7.5 +120 (what am i missing here? did they lose a lot?) ND Under 8 -125
i dont like aTm under 7 one bit and id be more tempted to take the over. Given Winst: SMU SHS SCS @Ole Miss @LaTech Coinflips Mizzou Arkie UF @AU @MSU Losses: LSU @Bama With regards to EMAW im also gonna take that over but keep in mind that they overperformed like crazy last year. I think Klein is good enough to win them a few of those ones you need to get to 8 wins for sure though. Betting against ND is always good money as much as I hate to admit it
I think there is too much unknown with aTm to play either side for me. They could suck for the first 5 games because of personnel and system issues. On the flip side, they could really grasp Sumlin's system and surprise people with that offensive style. I tend to think it won't work in the SEC, but Malzhan's offense was successful for a couple of years before all the SEC teams learned how to defend it.
I like Vandy u 6.5. I think their only wins will be: Northwestern, Presbyterian, Massachusetts, Kentucky, and Wake Forest. They could beat Ole Miss and Tennessee, but I just don't see it.
I think they beat Ole Miss, which would give them 6 wins. Then they would have to win one other game of their 6 remaining. They return 18 starters, 4 O lineman, the starting QB and RB, a good receiving group, and they had the 18th ranked defense last year. They were very competitive in games they were heavy dogs in. I just think they can win at least one of their six games where they will definitely be underdogs. And Franklin gets the best oh of these kids and has brought an attitude to the team. Being an Auburn fan, they scare me more than Mississippi State or aTm.
aTm beat La Tech by 1 pt last year. La Tech returns all of its offense and they play @tech. Wouldn't count it as a given.
same thing I thought at first. Dumpy seems to think aTm is better everywhere on the field except QB - compared to Houston . I think the first game under Sumlin's system for a QB who's never seen the field is gonna be a rough one... and Running in Sumlin's system won't work in big boy football. It's like Mahlzan's system without Cam. Good luck aggies
from what I see they lose 2 LBs and 1 DL. return all 4 DBs and the rest of the front 7. losses: Cole, Dudley, Broha who else?
Okay here are mine: 2 Unit Plays: California Golden Bears Over 6.5 -115 Pittsburgh Panthers Over 7 -115 UCLA Bruins Over 6 -110 Washington Huskies Under 7.5 -300 BYU Cougars Over 8 -175 1 Unit Plays: Clemson Tigers Over 8.5 -110 Georgia Bulldogs Over 9.5 -170 North Carolina Tar Heels Over 7.5 -165 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Under 8.5 -235 TCU Horned Frogs Under 8.5 -175 Virginia Tech Hokies Over 9.5 +140 North Carolina State Wolfpack Over 7.5 +130 Central Florida Knights Over 8.5 -105
Pretty funny TLAU laughed at the thought of A&M @ Auburn being a coin flip i mean, i guess he was right
