***Disclaimer - In the preaseason I like to shit toward everything and hope I win more than I lose. It has worked out well the last few years.***

I'm moderately set on these:
Buffalo -3 v. Utep. I don't really have a reason why. I actually had it going the other way about thirteen seconds before I submitted this post.
Oregon St -3 @ Stanford. Stanford won one home game last year. I just dont think they're good.
KU -36 v. FIU. 55-3 last year. I give FIU the benefit of the doubt and say they're two touchdowns better. Still not enough.
Zona -27 v. Idaho. I actually just got something slapped down in my office, so this is where my terrible one line analysis stops.
Cal -4.5 v. Mich st.
Memphis +7.5 @ ole miss
USC -19.5 @ virginia
Wisconsin -26.5 v. Akron
FAU +23 @ Texas.

Thinking about the following:
Mich -3.5 v. Utah
Wake -12 @ Baylor
Clemson -4.5 v. Bama
TCU -6.5 @ UNM

Never argue with a moron. They will bring you down to their level and beat your ass with their experience.

Two notable statistics: new coaches are 14-29 against the spread in their openers since 2003 and favorites cover at a slightly higher clip over the first couple of weeks (can't remember the numbers exactly).

S Carolina -14

Timmy - haven't really looked much at the weekend games yet. For tonight, I agree w/ you on Buffalo, but disagree with you on Stanford. Looks like a classic trap game. My money is on Stanford.

Also hope that you went with Stanford after my trap call. I'm dialed in motherfuckers....Vegas is gonna get hit hard for hundreds of dollars.

I switched back on utep, and got pounded.

I also switched to stanford (got in +2.5). While i was dropping nice duece this afternoon i was reading about oregon st losing 7 defensive staters (which was their strength) and stanford having one of the best linebacking corps in the nation.

And I got in on baylor +11.5.

Essentially my first post was in no way a reflection of what i've played. Right now im on the shit end of a coin flip.

Jen, I saw a few pics of you about a month or so ago. I would do extremely dirty and repulsive things to your hiney.

Jen, mhayden is the dbag that I go back and forth with about betting. Dude claims to make a living off of betting and has "clients" that follow his picks.

In on rice tonight.

And then im going to let this thread die because I dont particularly enjoy publishing my picks. I just like to pretend I make money gambling, and publishing my shitty picks fucks that up.
