Weather is supposed to be awful for the Utah game. I think the under is a good play there.

@Brick and @bruin228: I've been leading the bet against Auburn charge all year, but why do you guys like TAMU in that game so much? I don't think Auburn is very good, but they've been competitive each week since that LSU drubbing.

Also think that Tennessee-South Carolina line is interesting at +17. Probably won't do anything with it, but you're basically relying on the advanced stats guys to conclude that they should be favored by that much.

Fuck me: I'm an asshole on both counts.

oregon with adams should stay within ten, maybe have a chance to win. stanford will play their tough guy shtick offense against oregon. i expect them to be conservative. not a big believer in furds defense. oregon is in a no pressure situation here for the first time in years.

Watched almost as many Oregon games as Brock this year: think this team is the definition of mediocre.

Adams makes some plays, but I think his stature hurts him in the passing game: seems like he has to leave the pocket a lot because he can't see guys coming open. The team does have playmakers though so they can put up points. The thing is Stanford's D is still decent (Top 40ish at least IMO), although it's not the powerhouse it was 2012-2014.

The real problem is the D: the back 7 is beyond atrocious. I'm seeing a game where Stanford pounds it OK but doesn't have the super impressive stats like ASU did. Where they'll get killed IMO is in the PA game: Cajuste and co will have their way in coverage.

Total homer says jump on osu. For some reason though the bucks always struggle in Champaign. Probably should avoid.

Do you think the Bucks are undervalued at all based on how much they've struggled with Cardale at QB?

My thought was based on how much smoother the offense looks when Barrett plays: feel like they could win by 30+ now that they're finally playing the right QB, but WTF do I know...

Even though I'm worried about this game, I'd say take the Bruins to cover. @PSUEagle

I don't see Wazzu stopping Rosen (unless Mazzone handcuffs him and the offense decides to continue to run at a 8 man box- see ASU first half). Rosen has been killing it since Mazzone publicly said he'd give him free reigns. Saw that Wazzu has the second most TFL's in the conference. IF the Bruins keep the Cougs honest with the run, I can see UCLA scoring at will.

Bruins secondary is actually their strength. All things considered, Bradley has done a good job. @bruin228

Interested to see how this game starts out. Wazzu has 33 players from CA on their roster so they'll be emotionally charged. And Mora is 0-3 on Senior Night. That's got to change.

This is why I like them to cover.

People are sleeping on how good the UCLA pass D is: it's by far the best in Pac 12 play this year. They struggle against the run, but guess what Wazzu doesn't do on offense at all?

Right.

For a secondary to lose both their best cover guys (Moreau and Jack) they've stepped up big.

I definitely think they are undervalued and this is a potential Rutgers 2.0 situation. I'll probably be going heavy on this game, but for whatever reason Illinoise has historically played well against OSU at home.

Psu line has dropped from 5 to 3. I still like the lions. in this one. Michigan defense is reel-e struggling and lions have a %pod rushing attack. Lions d good enough to slow down Ruddock.

If sackenburg gets time I can see the lions win by 10.

Michigan is down to their #4 defensive tackle. If they can't find anyone to step up, Elliott will have a field day next week.

I'll probably regret this, but I agree with this take so fuck it: I'll take PSU at +3. We're due to beat those faggot cocksuckers, even with the refs fucking us in the ass Sandusky style

That makes total sense... Except why is Baylor a road favorite with an injured QB against an undefeated team?

Vegas is practically begging you to take OK State.
