Louisville- This should be a great game and one of the 2 games left this year that will decide who will play in the National Championship game. The other one being the Michigan/Ohio St game. I think one of the most important things in college sports is the home field advantage so I try to play all home teams either dog or favorites but sometimes like my LSU play I just feel that the away team is the right side but in this game I feel that the home team will have the advantage because of their home fans. Both of these teams run the ball well and you would have to give an edge to WVa in that department but in passing there is no doubt that Louisville has the edge and will have to use that advantage to win this game. Louisville has a much improved defense this year and they are holding opponents to 75 rushing yds per game and at a 2.51 yds per carry. I expect that White and Slaton will do better than these numbers but I think that the Card Defense can hold them to well under there averages and be in good shape in this game. Both teams have played sub par schedules and this will be the first real test for both that is another reason why I like the home team. The one stat that I am not fond of for Cards fans is that WVa has a +6 to -4 Tunrnover ratio advantage in this game. The line is currently at Lou -1.5 and everywhere I have looked I have seen GOY's on WVa and I am not sure why exactly. I am not saying that they cant win this game because they can but to play this for a GOY IMO is crazy. Brohm looked bad last game out but I fully expect him to be back to his old self for this big matchup. The books have the Cards as as a favorite for a reason and I am going to side with them on this game if I decide to play it but I might just sit back and enjoy the game because it should be great!!!!!
more leans to come

Texas A&M- Both the Aggies and Sooners have been playing great football as of late and I expect a great game on Saturday with a national spotlight game at 7:00. Plus throw in the fact that the gameday crewe will be there and you knnow that this is a big game for the Big 12. Kyle Field is one of the toughest places to come into and win and with Peterson being out and the OU team being relatively young I think that this will be the week where the loss of Peterson will show up. A team usually can win the first game after their star is out but its that second one where they usually get beat and that just happens to be this weekend in College Station. The Aggies are an impressive 6-1 ATS this year and have a turnover margin that is +4. They are well balanced on offense with their runnung game contributing 214 rushing yds per game and their passing game contributing 210 yds per game. It doesnt get much more balanced than that. OU is coming off of an emotional victory last week vs Missouri and IMO got lucky in that contest. If Coffman doesnt drop that for sure TD the Tigers would have been up by 10 in the game and who knows what would have happened and also throw in the fact that the Tigers also got down inside the 10 later in the game and didnt score so basically what I am saying is that the game was closer than the score indicated IMO. Regardless this is a new week and OU is going to be playing in a much tougher enviroment this week than last so I am givin the edge to the home team and fully expect them to pull the UPSET so I will wait until I get the ML number that I am looking for then I will pull the trigger. AGGIES 31-24!!!!!
Just FYI....This is the Sooners 3rd game without Petereson. They beat Colorado and then Missouri without him. Don't think that'll make a difference in your play, just wanting you to be aware of it.

5* Louisville -1 besides the reasoning above I feel that Louisville is a more disciplined team proven by the fact that WVa is one of the worst teams penalized in the country. They have been able to overcome this so far this year vs inferior opponents but the Cards will make them pay for this lack of discipline tonight. The crowd will also help out in this department as the noise will probably cause some important false start penalties for the Mountanineers. I also lean to the Under in this game but will not touch it because both of these teams have extremely potent offenses. The Cards will get the cash tonight.

trying to keep the perfect week going with a ML play and its a pretty good one
2* Army ML +200 I think Army is either going to win this game SU or they are going to get blown out so thats why I decided to play the game on the ML instead of taking the points. As you can tell since I played Army I think that they are going to win this game SU. They have played great at home at night traditionally and I expect an all out effort from them tonight. Coach Ross should have his team ready to play.
