  • Early Bowl Thoughts?

    Florida should crush Cincy
    TCU should easily beat Boise St
    Bama over Texas, I would guess the line will be 9.5
    Oklahoma over Stanford, no idea what this line will be

  • #2
    Opening Lines

    Bama - 4 vs. Texas (I can't believe this line)

    G Tech -3 vs. Iowa

    TCU -8 vs. Boise (in the Fiesta Bowl, sound familiar?)

    Gators -10.5 vs. Cincy

    Oregon -3.5 vs. Ohio St

        I'm taking all five favorites. Does that make me a square?

            If the total in the SMU/Nevada game is 2 digits I will be playing the OVER.

                I'll bet GA Tech based on their defense against turnover prone Iowa...I'll just have to lose that one, cuz I like Tech.

                Cincy is the dog that caught my eye, FLA is awful soft, but Cincy may lose Brian Kelly.

                  Ga Tech is a 1 trick pony on offense and give any team a month prepare is a whole lot different than 1 week. Again these are just my initial thoughts. Some lines will end up having value and others wont....should be fun.

                  PEACE

                    Oregon and Ga Tech roll. The Big 10 is a joke. I think Cincy beats Florida or at least keeps it close as long as Brian Kelly isn't a distraction. Then again, that didn't bother WVU against Oklahoma a couple years ago.

                      yeah, my instinct was Tech shuold roll a VERY average Iowa team, but that prep time makes a difference.......remember LSU hammered GT in last year's bowl game and easily handled the option. Iowa has a good defense, although I don't think as good as LSU's D was last year, so that is probabloy why the spread is so low. GT also does haven't a defense at all. I know this b/c Georgia couldn't run out of a wet paper bag this year and they put up over 300 yards rushing against Tech, the most a Georgia team has put up under Richt.

                      Bama line does seem low. Texas struggled against the few decent defenses they played this year, and they haven't seen a defense close to what Bama brings.

                      I actually like Boise getting over a TD against TCU. That offense can score on anyone.

                      I also lean with Cinci over Florida, partly b/c of motivation, a la Bama last year. Florida was obviously crushed (little Timmy was crying like a baby) by the loss, and I think they have a hard time getting up for the game. Flip side, Cinci knew they weren't playing for the National Championship, so I dont' think they are let down. Facing the defending national champion is something I think they will be highly motivated for.

                        With the quick eye test, my top 3 plays would be as follows

                        1) TCU over Boise
                        2) Florida over Cincy
                        3) Texas over Bama

                          That Alabama line really caught me by surprise. I see it at -5.5 now. I expected -9.5 to -10. I love Alabama as they are the complete deal but that line scares the shit out of me. Was surprised the Oregon line was low as well...

                          I like:
                          Iowa +4
                          Mid Tn State +3.5
                          Clemson -7
                          Georgia -7
                          Nebraska +1

                              Texas AM over UGA...Mark Richt is coaching the denfense! Not a good sign but some would say it could only be an improvement.
