Super Seven For Saturday

The first installment of Super Seven For saturday is ready to go! The lines and the best sportsbook for Saturday is Oddsmaker.com!



Saturday College Football

A quick hit look at some of the games tomorrow. I cover some of the big games, some of the televised games and some of the games you may not even know are playing tomorrow in my super seven college football games you must play.

7) Wake Forest +8

The ACC takes on Nebraska on the road and this home opener for the deacons should allow them to keep this close. They have a new QB after injuries but he has had all week and will keep this close.

Nebraska: 16-32 ATS off a home win by 28+ points
Wake Forest: 7-1 ATS after forcing 3+ turnovers



6) Miami Florida +11

If there one thing you can count on for Oklahoma is falling over when they take on a team out of conference. Miami has cashed three straight against Oklahoma. The Hurricanes are 5-2 in their last seven chances as road dogs and 6-3 ATS against non-conference rivals. Conversely, Oklahoma has slipped at a 10-6-1 clip outside the Big-12 when playing at Norman. Miami will be alive and kicking for this game and ready to keep it close.

5) NC. St +14

When I saw this line jump to two scores I had to jump on it. The wolf pack got hammered but an unknown in Central Florida because they were looking for this one. Ex head coach returns and BC will look to prove him wrong but this game, especially with the big loss in game one is the wolf pack game to win. This comes down to a kick. The Eagles have revenge but are just 1-4 ATS in that spot at home. North Carolina State is 11-4 as road dogs.

4) Boise St -3

Boise St. knows if they are for real these are the games they need to win and they could not have found a better team to play. Washington has floundered in 15 of its last 19 ATS at home and it has dropped nine of 12 at Husky Stadium as underdogs. The Huskies have also flopped at a torrid 14-3-1 clip outside the Pac-10.

SYSTEM PLAY: PLAY ON any game two college underdog or favorite of -10 or less provided they're coming off a 35-point or more straight up victory in their season opener.

Boise State: 34-17 ATS off a combined score of 60+ points
Washington: 26-44 ATS off a road game




3) South Carolina +3

The gamecocks finally get their QB back and are ready to showcase some serious talent and get revenge against Georgia. South Carolina: 8-1 ATS in road games, and will keep it close on the national stage. Spurrier knows how to get his teams ready. Georgian spanked South Carolina last season as three-point road favorites, 18-0. The Gamecocks are 10-1 ATS on the road with revenge against conference rivals. USC has also cashed six of nine as road dogs and six of nine on the highway against quality teams under Coach Steve Spurrier. The Bulldogs have won five straight series meetings. However, they are 5-10-1 as home favorites and 3-7 ATS at home versus conference foes.

2) Mississippi St -5

A big revenge game here for Mississippi St when they head to Tulane. Tulane upset Mississippi State as 11-point road dogs last year, 32-29. The Bulldogs have cashed four straight on the road when in revenge mode. They have also 'covered' seven of nine against the Green Wave. Tulane is 1-6 ATS in its last seven season openers.

1)Arizona St. -15

Arizona State has cashed nine of 12 non-conference battles at home and it is 10-2 as a non-conference home favorites. The Sun Devils are 11-3 ATS in games 1-5 as well. The buffaloes are off a huge win against Colorado St but had to go deep into extra time and won it with offense not defense. The sun devils have a better defense and win the game.

Colorado: 0-6 ATS away off a win
Arizona State: 5-1 ATS as a favorite of 10.5 to 21 points


Rutgers Vs Navy --Friday

Rutgers Vs Navy

Rutgers easily toyed with Buffalo in home opener 38-3, gaining 563 total yards in the rout and will face a much tougher assignment in playing the Naval Academy.

It seems coach Greg Schiano stayed for a reason after many inviting job offers. One of the big pluses is the talent he has recruited returns a number of starters (13) and the replacements will not be a significant drop off. Running back Ray Rice keys the rushing game and looked in Heisman form in his opening effort. Rice rushed for 184 yards and three touchdowns on 25 carries. The extra year of experience worked wonders for quarterback Mike Teel, who also added a noteworthy effort as he completed 69.5 percent of his attempts for 328 yards and two scores. The junior signal is now 14-3 and 11-5 against the spread as a starter.

Head coach Paul Johnson has done an absolutely astonishing job at the Naval Academy in five plus years with 38-25 record (33-20-1 ATS) and taken the Midshipmen to four consecutive bowl games. More importantly at this institution, they have won four consecutive Commander-in-Chief Trophies after having not won one in 22 previous years. This year’s task will be a tougher job with just three starters back on defense.

Offensively, a case could be made this might be the most explosive Navy team ever with Kaipo-Noa Kaheaku-Enhada at quarterback and a fleet of speedy backs to make running game potent. Against Temple in the opener, Kaheaku-Enhada ran the offense like a bon vivant, rushing for 102 yards himself and dishing out on the option for another 259 yards. The Hawaii native won’t dazzle anyone with his throwing, however his speed and decision making are exceptional in Johnson’s option, which might leave him among the greats at Navy.
The Rutgers defense is not big; nonetheless they are aggressive and quick trying to replace four starters from the front seven. The Scarlet Knights will be fed a steady diet of option football, which means they must have the discipline, ironically enough of a military man, to carry out assignment and stop Navy’s prodigious ground attack. Rutgers is 8-3 ATS taking on non-conference foes.

The early line of Rutgers favored by 12 was pounded by bettors and is now 17.5 at Sportsbook.com, despite the Midshipmen’s 35-12 ATS record as a road underdog the last 15 seasons. This will be Navy’s second straight road game and they are 2-6 SU and ATS against Rutgers.

This will be the second of five consecutive home games for Rutgers who can dish out a serious dose of (Ray) Rice to the Middies. If they become too focused on the run, Teel has shown he can wound teams with the passing game, leaving defensive coordinators transmogrified from genius status to jackals in the course of one football game.
No matter, Navy will gain plenty of yards, but it will be Rutgers piling up the points, as Coach Schiano will have his Scarlet Knights chopping wood again. With spread now at a much higher number, the potential for Navy to enter through the old backdoor to cover comes even more into play.

ESPN will cover this Eastern favored football contest starting at 7 Eastern.

Selection: Navy +16

Week 2 College Football

The matchup: Oregon State Beavers at Cincinnati Bearcats
Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET from Nippert Stadium in Cincinnati, OH
The line: OSU -3 ½, total 45 ½ points

Selection: Bearcats +3.5
Oregon St. looked great last week as they handled Utah and the Bearcats of Cincinnati had an easy contest and will get the real first test tonight at home in prime time. Teams always look forward to a prime time test at home and they will be ready for this game. The Beavers are just 19-28 ATS in September games and are used to getting off to slow starts and in this spot as they are 35-41 ATS in road games since 1993. The Bearcats are 19-8 ATS at home off of a home game and 51-38 ATS as a home underdog since '93. The beavers lose an All pro guard while the bearcats get back a big defensive end giving them help in beatiing the run tonight and that is the Beaver strong point.

Clemson vs. Florida St.


Tonight’s game between the Bowden’s will take center stage in primetime as ESPN is set to televise the tilt between the Tigers and the Seminoles.

Florida St, has announced that Drew Weatherford will get the call as starting QB and won the job due to his consistency with the every down plays. It was stated that Xavier Lee will see some action but his role was not named.

Clemson on the other hand has an unproven at QB for tonight (Cullen Harper) and will rely on a running attack from James Davis to keep the quick front of Florida St off of his new QB. Both defenses will be poised to make some noise tonight. The Seminoles are chocked full of NFL prospects on defense that are fast and hard hitting. Clemson counters with a solid line backing core led by Nick Watson and Anthony Waters.

Online Sports Betting at Sportsbook

Memorial Stadium is not an easy place to play and you can be assured the crowd will be loud and ready to support the home team. This is not good news for Florida St because they are just 1-6 ATS at Clemson and 16-15 ATS as road favorites. Terry Bowden always finds a way to get his team fired up to go against his father and that is proven in the 3-1 SU and ATS mark in the last four meetings.

I look for more of the same tonight with a wild and rowdy crowd! Clemson is 6-0 ATS in its last 6 as an underdog and they will cash in again tonight!

Clemson+3

Saturday ESPN games and more!

Saturday College Football selections


Record at the blog: 1-1, -.10

There are two favorites that I believe the public have pumped up due to emotion and preseason rankings and both of them are plays today.

East Carolina +28

There is no doubt that the tragedy at VT was devastating and this campus, city, and country have gathered behind them to embrace the sadness and celebrate the recovery. We will prevail, we are Virginia Tech are some of the greatest words I will hear all week. Let’s talk football. If the hokies have a question mark it’s with the QB, and that goes for East Carolina who had a suspension for a DWI and will not have a starting QB. This game will be decided by defense and special teams. ECU has better special teams play than VT, don’t be stunned it’s the truth. They have a great FG kicker and in a game decided by defense a FG kicker is the difference and ECU has the edge. Look for a strong rushing attack and a defensive showing by ECU and VT will prevail but it will be close.

Western Michigan +23.5

There is not another team that is hyped higher than West Virginia and the Mountaineers. The hype is deserved with two Heisman candidates and a sift schedule they can go along ay. Western Michigan has other plans and this kind of television exposure will work wonders if they can make a good impression and that will come from the offense. The offense is deep and solid and will have enough fire power to keep this close.

TV Games
Boston College -6
Tennessee +6
Auburn -12.5
Georgia -6
UCLA -16
Coloado St. +2.5
Nevada +21

Rest of the best:

Army +5
USC/Idaho Over
UTEP +3.5

Friday Night LIghts Preview & Pick

College Football Betting Preview
Washington at Syracuse Friday, 8:00 pm Eastern – ESPN
Opening Line: Washington -3.5, Total 45.5

Two college football teams with a lot to prove meet on Friday night in Syracuse as the Orange host the Washington Huskies. It will be the first ever Friday night game in the Carrier Dome. "You can feel festivity in the air about the season," Syracuse head coach Greg Robinson. "I look forward to the day when that dome is rockin'." It has not happened with Robinson on the sideline as Syracuse is a poor 5-18 with him at the helm. SBG Global reports that early betting has the public taking the favored Washington on the Road.

Things are not much better for Washington with Tyrone Willingham at the controls. He is 7-16 at Washington and has definitely not delivered as head coach. Many people think that Washington has the toughest schedule in college football this season so things may not get any better for the Huskies in 2007. After opening at Syracuse, the Huskies will play six teams ranked in the preseason AP Top 25, including #1 USC. The Huskies will be starting redshirt freshman quarterback Jake Locker against Syracuse. He is a highly recruited player that is Washington is hoping will turn the program around. "I have expectations for myself. I've set goals, things I want to accomplish, and I'm going to work hard to achieve that," Locker said. "We'll see what happens on Friday night."
SBG Global Current Line: Washington -3.5, Total 45.5

Syracuse also starts a new quarterback in Andrew Robinson. "You always have a little bit of nerves going out there and dropping back," Robinson said. "But the more comfortable you get the less nervous you get. It's going to be fun. The dome's going to be rocking."

It's been a long time since the Carrier Dome was sold out. The last time was in 2000 when Miami was in town. It is unlikely the Carrier Dome will get anywhere near that many fans on Friday. "It's important to win any game, and everybody that plays football or watches football knows home games are important," said Syracuse defensive end Jameel McClain, "We're going to go out there and fight our hardest."

The Huskies are 4-14 in their last 18 games on turf. Syracuse is 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games overall. Syracuse is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 games at home.
The Under is 9-1 in Washington’s last 10 games as a favorite. The Under is 7-2-1 in the Huskies last 10 games overall. The Under is 7-2 in Syracuse’s last 9 home games.
